無做作 拿好包包路人變模特 顯氣質

Strike a pose未必是model專利,也是氣質態度的體現。造型除了精美化妝、型格衣服以及配飾外,用上名牌手袋也未必夠氣場,甚至拿手袋的手勢也有講究。

想不到Prada拿着提包的手勢也有guideline,立見其重要性。

自然也是氣場元素之一,不用做作地擺出大幅度的向後彎腰,包包擺臉旁。
平民要顯性格無做作氣質strike a pose,參考fashion week騷場外拍下的fashion snap shot。
背上Chanel quilted chain bag也有以上至少4款例子
右至左
- 側背用手爪着肩帶較有含羞少女感
- 自然側背瀟灑女人味
- 以手肘勾着手挽特別貴氣
- 手自然垂直扼手挽顯率性



Clutch是近年大熱,尤其大size的款式,可夾在腋下或手爪着


Backpack背着雙肩帶或許太呆笨,單肩背着或手拿(如上圖)則別有一番風格。(男友儘管背包多重也不願背雙肩)

襪子奮鬥史-白襪配涼鞋 老土當時興 The revolution of socks

記得小學和中學的白襪仔嗎? 那年由於是學生的身份,被與潮流背道而馳的學校和老師打壓,我們可是這在局限内挑戰底線。大象襪未免過火,惟選較鬆身且粗直條的運動襪,學校對襪的長度亦有着無理要求,白襪本已顯腿粗,更殘酷者逼着學生把其拉至及膝,實在不仁! 於是每天進校門前硬把白襪拉得最高,還望襪頭膠水保持黏力,一過訓導的金睛火眼後回復正常。做學生真苦。

I do remember the "hard time" at skool that the teachers always forced us to puull our ugly white socks up to the knee matching with the below knee skool dress. It was defo a disaster! Because the skool is somehow anti-fashion. For those naughty student like me and my frds tried to test the bottomline. Different stule of socks in trend like the japanese style loose drapy socks or the sweater one. But we had never avoid the punishment of not sticking to the skool rules. Damn...


又記得多年前老土怪都白襪配涼鞋,還有大陸女士們的肉色絲襪襯涼鞋,這都可算是時裝界上的反面經典。今天老土當時興,反面教材成潮流。

It has been quite out-dated to wear white socks all over the 00's. The mainland ladies' look was classic. They wear low den nude colour ankle stockings with sandals. But today that's no longer be tacky or granny style. Let's see the example below.


別看輕這小小的襪子,它對我的人生有着不同的意義外,時裝上的用處亦非同小可。年前多alexander wang經已在台上譲model穿上白襪,於是筆者有樣學樣,卻被吐糟,可見當年不成氣候,白襪者尤其遭白眼。

Alexander Wang has already had the style with white socks and sandals. I did try the look before. However it hasn't yet been accepted at that time. I somehow got discriminated...LOL

2011 resort 他又捲土重來,還有更多品牌紛紛追隨,如 Prada ,Dries Van Noten ,Burberry,白色的花的圖案的襪子們終于抬頭,襯涼鞋絕對不是老土怪。這夏季衣服百花齊放,花花幾何顔色統統有型,帶挈配飾也無懼過份花巧,襪子亦然。

2011 resort A.W do it again and not just him! As well as Prada, Dries Van Noten ,Burberry. All kinda style works! Like plain pure or patterns or colours. This has been cool with a vintage touch. We love every colours and print this season on every single items and socks has been on trend too.




夏天涼鞋裏穿上襪子太熱嗎? 你穿密頭鞋時也一樣,選擇短襪或薄身的吧。然而我們這兒不談功能性,只管fashion不fashion。- strangejoanne

You may say it's too hot to put on socks. But I'd say we do still feeling the same in either oxford shoes, pumps, ankle boots in summer! Style and look are way more important! - strangejoanne







雖說潮流,但禁忌還是有的。

Though this is on trend., there still DON'T.

MIA的白色sweat socks配大媽拖鞋很師奶。
MIA did a bad demonstration of wearing sweat socks with granny slippers.

別把襪子拉得高又直,看起來笨拙土氣。
還有顔色的配搭可多參考runway上的colour palette,以上的不堪入目。

The example above is horrible! DON'T pull the socks straight up that would look silly. As well as the colours can be inpired from the runway collection colour palette.

Recent life about

Haven't been updating my blog for some time as I am just getting on a new track of work.

I feel like I am looking for myself from each job I had. Each of them may not be wut u persue for a life time as u may not enjoy and like about. But it defo for u to prepare urself for the next step. Because it wasn't wut I am enjoying from my past position however it provided me a very first step and a stable envoironment to look up to wut I can do in the future .

It's very much fate & destiny of how I get to the position now. Something is meant to be ready for you if you are well prepared. I'd never know I would be doing luxury handbags or shoes that I am fancy with. How dramatic is life, innit?

I m quite happy of wut I m doing now. Learn from the tough work or tough situation to let me stay stronger. It's good that it allows me to look all over the world being more international than just sitting in the office, facing the computer, coming up with boring drawings.

I would take the opportunity to thank everyone who has been giving full support to me. The encouragement when I am dull and upset while I have lost my path and myself means soooo much to me! And the change of life I have now is those ppl securing my heart to make me having the braveness to get out of my comfort zone.

I will be out of town sometimes. Pls dun blame my disappearance cos I don't have enough time for all or even myself (being lazy or resting). I do keep everyone in mind and love you all always. XXX

The H&M basket is fun

紀錄另類地踎 醉夢同遊曼谷

停手2星期,皆因頹廢沉迷享樂、美食與睡眠。
假期十天,當中一半醉夢遊曼谷。此地爲港人熱門,我不用特寫旅記。
而我們倆的意向一志,另類選遊地踎,此文乃點滴趣事,好作紀錄而已。

 中午JJ Market本是vintage二手愛好者辛苦尋寶地,可是筆者一無所獲,汗流依舊頰背。
可恨也!於是幸好晚上轉戰 local night market,有像我的英國至愛carboots sale又或是bricklane地攤,完全符合我倆河車,二人興奮忘餐。

賣的包羅萬有,沒有像JJ般的找遊客的血汗錢,和白眼講價者(我)。如下照片能描述一切。






另外環繞檔仔們都有酒吧,懷舊味更強烈刺鼻。



除了貌似小食街檔實情是正餐pad thai外,有一酒吧連餐廳,它成爲我們當晚落肚點。地方不是人人能接受,可是我們二人卻津津樂道,因為環境有如廢墟,窗戶門口皆破壞,更別説裝修或冷氣。可是那處處殘舊的風味實在美好。相連的是同味道的酒吧,當地年青人較多。
牆壁上有字列上今年三月的日期,不知道是否開業不久,但我有理由相信如似環境是無牌經營的,不過無所謂。


食物或許無法中肯評論,因爲那裡沒有英文菜單,亦聽不懂外語,於是我們二人以僅懂的泰式餸菜名點餸 - TOM YUM, PAD THAI ,這兩個既家傳戶曉又朗朗上口。另外我用body language形容英文單字 -  PORK, NECK > 用食指把鼻子向上推,再指指自己的頸,如是就還算醫了肚。

由於market只於weekend開業,我們逛得不久。收獲雖少卻仍然精彩。

白色真皮流鬚背心 thb3xx

網邊上繡花單鞋 thb 80


還有另一爲我們喜歡的則是Khao San,背囊友天堂,消費低,有買的食的飲的,更有tattoo。筆者本想添丁,可是見遊客就開天殺價便放棄了。





我們倆口用錢最多於Band tee,價錢相宜,可是要留意其印花質量。


藝術文化中心才剛開幕,内無特色,gallery小貓一二,日後再多進注才有參觀意慾。
唯一特別是一所雪糕店。有意念的雪糕值得支持。


全球暖化的概念雪糕
還有WASABI味的Strange Ice-cream. Yum!





更多有SPA, nice service apartemnt, shopping mall 等不特色的不好説。
10天假期中之4天3夜沉倫泰國就這樣,其餘瑣碎的容後上照片。
