One of my costumes this year from over the weekend. As suggested by Jessy from The Little Dust Princess, I turned the outfit I wore in the summer to a wedding (link to post) into my Halloween costume this year as Cleopatra. Best $15 dress ever! The headpiece was DIY – a elasticized band of sequins and Christmas beads decorations from Michaels. The belt was from one of my costumes from dance.
Been getting addicted to Instagram…though I always want to work on and practice using my DSLR, sometimes its not practical to bring it around! Plus quick and easy editing options! Some outfits from the past several months.

During the past Canadian long weekend, a close friend was getting married in Vancouver but I had other commitments back home in Toronto, thus resulting in an extremely short trip to Vancouver. I went to the airport in my dress for the wedding.

My outfit for the wedding
Last month I participated in ShoptheMag.com campaign in supporting in promoting Asian designers. I have only a limited number of clothing items from Asian designers and limited knowledge of the Asian fashion industry, becase I rarely go to Asia (twice in my life only). However, with the internet, Asian designer clothing are much more accessible.
I sent in the following photos for their campaign. The clutch is from a Hong Kong brand Anteprima. Their handbags are unique in that they are made from gimp string! For a while as a kid, making bracelets out of gimp string was all the rage!
This month’s challenge, hosted by Long Live Classy, is as follows:

This month’s Petite Fashion Challenge, hosted by Really Petite, is a theme right up my alley! A professional outfit for under $100, which is my daily outfit!
During Fall 2011, my gray H&M pencil skirt was definitely one of my most worn items during the school week.
Just a few photos from my girlfriend’s wedding at the end of October.
In traditional Chinese weddings, the groom goes to the bride’s house to pick her up. Prior to entering the house, the groom needs to give the bridesmaid a red pocket (money), which is negotiated at the door. However, that’s not it – the bridesmaids and the bride’s girlfriends don’t make it easy and the groom and his entourage is subjected to various obstacles and games.
I was running low on foundation, so I dropped by Yorkdale, with only an hour and a half til closing. Managed to check out a few new items at H&M and Aritzia, didn’t even get to check out the new stores like J.Crew and Top Shop. But since my foundation was out of stock, seems like I’ll need to make another trip back there soon.
Some of the items I found at H&M. I originally saw this blazer on a girl doing a presentation at school, but didn’t look as good when I wearing it. But will still consider…
