See my new Lanvin's!!!

I have been in love with the brand Lanvin for quite some time. I think Alber Elbaz is a genius. His RTWs are to die for!! Duchesse satin, cocktail-length frocks (often with one shoulder), dressed-up cigarette pants, and volume experimentation are his signatures.

Well, I am not ready to splurge on the RTWs yet, so I am starting with shoes. Haha...."Start Small, Think Big!" I might be buying a Happy Sac from Lanvin if I find the right leather/color for me, and of course, Lanvin's costume jeweleries too! I love all their chunky necklace design! And Lanvin has those lovely limited edition porcelain dolls which I'd love to collect as well.

So, here are my new shoes from Lanvin. I am loving them because they are so comfortable for everyday wear!!

FIRST PAIR:
Leopard Print Ballerina in Satin and Grosgrain with Ribbon in Navy/Heather Blue/Purple/Black



Love the colorway of this leopard...

And finally, a FAMILY PICTURE of my Lanvin ballerinas. I'm happy with my collection. :D

Chanel tweed jackets from Cruise 2010!!

I have too many Chanel bags, costume jeweleries and shoes already. So, I think it's time to explore the world of Chanel RTW. Chanel tweed jackets are so classic and I think investing in them is a wise choice. Of course, if you score them during the sale season, even better!

I'm done with Chanel Paris-Moscou stuff already, and waiting for my Fall stuff to hit the stores. So, I'm looking into the Cruise 2010 fashion show! Love Venice!! It's one of my favorite places! My wedding (both ceremony and banquet) in 2006 was suppose to be in Lido, Venice. That was our first choice. But the wedding planner said that the venue was full already. So, we went for plan B instead which was wedding ceremony and banquet in Switzerland. And we took our wedding photos in Rome Italy instead.

OK....back to Chanel. So, I was browsing the fashion show, and these 3 tweed jackets caught my eye.

I esp. like this 1st one because of the rich colors and I can already imagine wearing it with jeans and slacks.....my kind of thing. It's perfect for casual chic.

This jacket is classic, except that it's in a bright red color. Well, if it's in black/white or navy or grayish color, or even burgundy/magenta color, I will definitely love it. Hope it comes in a different color.

This one is more tailored, and I am thinking that the standing collar is cool! Ooh...don't you just love that statement necklace?!!! Umm, no bra tops for moi.

What do you think? If you have to choose one, which will it be?

Mason and his swimsuit parade....

I was looking at some of the recent and old pics of Mason, and I find these cute pictures where he's wearing his "swim suit". From a baby to a toddler....time flies!

This was taken when he's 7 months old.....preparing for his first swimming class. It's so much easier to take his pictures when he's younger. He was really chubby when he's a baby. We bring him to a nutritionist to "control" his diet because from his monthly check-ups, he's already way up exceeding the 100% line. LOL! Good that he's not that chubby now.










Now that Mason can run around, he just won't stand/sit still to let you take pictures. I had a hard time taking these pics.....phew!!
