OOTD: Fall Collections

Recently the idea of making a fall outfits collections kept popping out in my mind, but I has been wondering whether my outfits fit the “fall” concept very well as you know the whether in HK now is still far from “cold”. So this series of photo you will see here are shot from October to November, but trust me, I have tried my best to put on as much layers as possible 😉

When I was thinking of how to emphasize the “fall” concept, it is not just about the outfit, but also the vibe that could suit my outfit better. So you can see different types of outfits below with various backgrounds and feelings, and also it would be great if you can share your fashion idea to me!! Like, what is the key fashion element of this autumn/winter? C’mon I do need more inspirations about this autumn and the upcoming winter!

Trench Coat & Baseball Jacket

These two are my must-haves for autumn, and this year you can find the embroidery baseball jacket EVERYWHERE (I’m not exaggerating, just EVERYWHERE), well personally I’m not very into the ordinary baseball jacket, but if there’s one with silk-like texture? OK I just couldn’t resist.

Silk Pyjamas With Oriental Floral Pattern

The silk pyjamas top from Oysho is definitely one of the best item I’ve bought this year, the Japanese-style floral pattern and the vintage autumn vibe is a perfect match, also with the suede A-line dress.

Denim on Denim Again, 90s Style

I went to Clockenflap again this year, Hong Kong’s largest outdoor music festival. Even though the weather wasn’t nice (actually it was terrible), thank god I still seized a 10-min chance in between the pouring rain to take some pics for my 90s outfit LOL. And if you have noticed my outfit last year for Clockenflap, you may notice that I put similar elements on again: like the striped jumper and my old-school hairstyle, if you ask me WHY vintage again? I would say: Why would you spend a couple of hours to think about what to wear if you can just do vintage??

Singapore Restaurant Week

Before we start, let me have a self-celebration: woohoo! I’m having 600 followers! (For those who hasn’t subscribe me, click the button at upper right corner on my homepage then you will see how to follow)

Frankly speaking, I love eating, but I’m not fastidious about food. First, appearance of the dish is totally not the thing I would consider. Before using Instagram, I didn’t even take any pics about what I have had (and I’m such a bad food photographer ). Second, I always believe that dining is not only about the food, but also the environment and the mood of yourself. Therefore, to me, rather than giving detailed comment of a dish like a food critic, I only focus on those “Ah-ha” moments when those magical chemical reactions happen in my mouth.

Singapore Restaurant Week (March 19th to 26th)

When I firstly  heard about this term I was like “What is this for? Is this a promotion by some restaurants or it’s a traditional festival for SG people to dine out?” Don’t laugh, sometimes I really find it hard to understand the dinning culture in Singapore. After a while I realized that this is an event held by Dinning City  , some selected restaurants (usually those fancy ones) will show their special Restaurant Week menu in a discounted price than usual.

Then I laughed. To be honest I have dined out a lot in Singapore over these months but I never get any “Ah-Ha” moments sadly. Seriously I get confused and I can’t tell why. Sometimes I try to convince myself: maybe that’s because the restaurants you have been to are not expensive enough (I don’t get the logic behind this tho haha). But dinning in those fancy restaurants in Singapore gives me the feel like having a feast on the airplane. Perhaps the meal is really good, but the place and the vibes, or the whole feeling gets wrong 😦

Ok never mind, I still booked some restaurants through this event though. Why not? So let’s check them out.

The Clifford Pier@Fullerton Bay Hotel

Yep, my first stop is of-course Fullerton Bay Hotel. In spite of those recommendations I’ve received from my local friends, the reason why I choose here is quite simple: the environment.

The restaurant is famous for local cuisine, which is a fusion of Chinese food and southeast asian flavour. But it’s a pity that my friends and I we all think that the curry is too plain. The only highlight is the icecream I think…

(Sorry I really donno how to take food pics…)

BOCA

People say it’s the most authentic Portuguese cuisine in Singapore. Since I haven’t tried Portuguese cuisine, I can’t compare. But one of our crew is from Portugal and his comment is: you could find all these dishes much more cheaper in Portugal. (Well the only rule to survive Singapore is NEVER thinking about the price lol)

Based on what we’ve ordered, I guess Portuguese cuisine is mostly about seafood? And the mussels tastes pretty fresh 🙂

Cozy Weekend

Follow my blog with Bloglovin
Cou cou! Here comes our awesome cozy weekend again. This sunday’s gonna be Chinese Moon Cake Festival so I’m already home and gonna spend it with my family. Normally we barbecue near the pool at night, in order to appreciate the silver moonlight reflected on the water and have a bite of lava-custard (?) moon cake 🙂 Actually there are so many types of moon cakes that I just couldn’t distinguish them…

So what’s your plan for this weekend? I got that feeling maybe I’m too old to go out now… Most of the time I just like to chill at my place and share pics on social media to pretend being socializing but ACTUALLY I’M NOT and I hate going out hahaha. Just kidding, but if you are also a couch-potato advocate, make yourself a good music collection and a cup of coffee 😉 or afternoon tea,whatever. (@Fashionmimo)

Afternoon tea set in 1881 Heritage, Tsim Sha Tsui. A good place above the noisy TST, with awesome city view. (@Fashionmimo)

BTW, I started to do some portrait shootings and will post them on Instagram, include some OOTDs, follow me if you are also interested!
