ROCOCO



I've just came back from a trip in Europe, where I visited 9 different cities in Austria, Croatia, Germany and Slovenia. As with most European holidays, cathedrals and palaces were part of the itinerary. Of the cathedrals and palaces I saw this time, many were built and decorated in Rococo style. The Schönbrunn Palace, where the beautiful Sisi once lived, is one fine example of Rococo architecture. This jacket reminds me of the Rococo style, injected with a splash of tropical summer. My jackets have always ended above the hips, so I was pleasantly surprised to find that I can actually carry off this one which is slightly oversized and longer in length. As they say, you'll never know if you never try! So why not try something new today and give yourself the chance to be pleasantly surprised!

COLORS GALORE



The concept of color therapy has been around for a long time. It uses colors in various forms to heal and create holistic balance in the human body. One form of color therapy involves placing silks of different colors on the body to allow the body to soak up the healing vibrations of the various colors. I've not tried such therapy myself, so I can't speak about it's effectiveness. But if it's true, then perhaps wearing a dress such as this is a shortcut, mobile form of color silk therapy. Even if it doesn't work, looking at the cheerful colors should at least help lift your spirits. Happy week ahead everyone!

TANGERINA



I've been quite obsessed with orange lately, picking up a couple of orange lippies in recent weeks and then this skirt on my last trip to Hong Kong. I really like how figure hugging the skirt is for the most part, upping it's lady-like factor, but ends with a flippy hem which swishes around when I walk, making it fun and girly at the same time. To stay on the feminine yet girly theme, I completed the outfit with a peter pan collared lace top. I definitely feel an additional bounce in my step every time I wear this skirt!
