Matt(hue) Williamson and my generic man...

After a successful trial on men's wear by designer Matthew Williamson for his line in H&M, he is launching a men's line under his own label. Known for his organic prints and bold use of colors, Matthew already gave us a taste of how he as a designer can expand the possibilities of the neutral and plain dominated industry of dressing men. It's time to savor it!!

preview: ENJOY!!!







I'm not attracted to a "generic man" but I'm liking this one

topshop x (3 designers)

British retail giant TOPSHOP who's known for collaborating with emerging fashion talents is bringing us not one but three unique capsule collections. It is still a pity that Hong Kong, being a former British colony still does not have the hip brand here. :(

Friends from overseas you know what to get me....
I'm hoping for more "major retail brand-designer" collaborations for this year! It makes fashion much more accessible to the masses.

The featured DESIGNERS:
ASHISH brings us an exquisite, chic sportswear line with lots of appliques.
ANN SOPHIE BACK created six pieces inspired by horror films.
JONATHAN SAUNDERS who's doing his fourth line for Top Shop was inspired by the Memphis movement.

PREVIEW:




OUT on January 20!!!

Holi-dazed!

Yes, it was the holidays and now I'm back to work. With me having no "real holiday" and yet have to keep up with the endless booze induced night-outs, glutton fests and gift shopping, the last part of the year left me EXHAUSTED.

the holidays brought me here.... :)

panic buying in mongkok, prince edward and tsim shat tsui...

I got myself a new gift!!


My good friend Cang brought me here "Gindaco" (G/F, 40Q Shantung Street, Mong Kok)!! Takoyaki, Yakisoba and Iced Green Milk Tea yum!! the best present!

Fazhyeen voyuer.. loving the pork pie hat and the fedora. He is wearing floral printed sneakers wth a leather jacket loving it! She is carrying a D&G "Lily" Leather Satchel in black (the multi- zipper bag)or something that looked like it. It is very rare to see a fazhyeenable couple eating Japanese street food in Hong Kong. Happy New year!!!
