School Pick Up

I am normally not the kind of mom who would dress up to perfection when it comes to school pick up. Heck, I'm the kind of mom who would just roll out of bed, brush my teeth, wash my face, brush my hair, wore my workout clothes, and I'm out the door for school drop off.

But sometimes, I still like to look presentable every so often. Like yesterday, I had to pick up my kids from school. So I put on my knee length baby blue skirt for a change (instead of my usual jeans) with a simple white tee. And to keep it casual I pair my ensemble with my neutral coloured Vans sneakers. To add a bit of chic-ness, I took my vintage cream Chanel bag out for the day. To top things off, doing the #evachenpose while waiting for my kids to come out from school.

On the Hunt

I was on the hunt for the perfect high-waisted trousers that are straight cut, slightly cropped to perfection and not black. While I was browsing through Zara's website, I stumbled upon the above trousers! I fell in love. I wasn't really sure about the sizing, so I just wing it. I bought it and waited about a week for my Zara package to arrive. When it finally came, OMG, it was perfect! From the fit, the color and the style. They are no longer available though, so I can't put any link for it. And my only regret is: Man, I should've bought two of them.

Vintage Dior

One of the greatest perks of having a fashionista as a mother are all the fabulous vintage designer pieces hand-me-downs that I get to enjoy as the only daughter. This one has got to be one of my favourites (among the sea of vintage designer purses and other well made clothing items): a beautiful Christian Dior see through blouse that I can dress up or down. Here I pair it with my favourite black skinny jeans from ASOS.

Pulp Fiction

Pulp Fiction has got to be one of my all time favorite movies ever. Directed by Quentin Tarantino, who is also one of my favorite film director ever. This movie has given me a lot of inspirations every so often. I'm also obsessed with Uma Thurman's character, Mia Wallace's style in this film.

Military Jumpsuit

I am currently loving the whole military-inspired jumpsuit look. The one I'm wearing is from H&M. They're perfect and won't break your bank. Also I think they're super versatile to be dressed up or down. H&M currently have many variety of military-inspired jumpsuit styles that I think worth checking out. 

French Bob | White Frills

I got a haircut over the weekend. The cut that has been haunting me in my dreams for the past week or two. I've been obsessing over this French bob hair style and finally pluck up the courage to get it done after consulting with my stylist over the phone. I am so in love with this new hair!

Fashion Friday: Neutrals

I'm currently really into a lighter neutrals such as white, tan, light brown and (of course) taupe.
