Is this a skirt? A Poncho? Or a Tube Top? :D

Hi dears,

It's been a hectic week for me because my son was sick. He is always sick when there is a drastic weather change.  :(  He had a throat infection which made his temperature going up and down for a couple of days.  Anyway, he is better now but still coughing and having running nose.  At least, it's better than having a fever.  I didn't let him take any antibiotics this time.  I want him to fight/outgrow the virus/bacteria using his own immune system.  Not sure if it's good or bad, but I just don't like anti-biotics on kids.

Anyway, back to fashion.  I would like to share my ODJ with you.....an interesting piece which I bought last year but totally forgotten about it until I was searching for something bright to wear.

So here you go.....hope you like it!


Oh, and stay tuned for my next GIVEAWAY......:D  Something related to "Alice in Wonderland" and also another piece which I think you will like.

So, this is the special piece which I found in my wardrobe untouched....hehehe!
Yes, this is a bright orange skirt actually!  But I wear it as a poncho which is the style I like best!

I layered a longer tunic type of turtle neck coz the poncho is obviously too short...and I wanted some flare at the bottom...hehe!

And I also tried to wear it as a tube top....:P
But it's so cold here.....so I layer it with this cream color Kookai faux fur jacket which I bought in Paris last year.....it's sooo warm!!

Side view..
(you can see the cutting of the fur jacket....it's shorter at the back and longer in front...love it as it is a nice contrast to my poncho/top which is longer at the back and shorter in front)

Close-Up shot...

And who said you can't wear sandals during winters?!!  Yes you can!  Just wear it with socks!  Hehehe!

And my love.....one of my fave bags in my collection!!  Chanel bronze python medium classic with tassel!

And I would like to esp. thank my friend Kat for this thoughtful Christmas gift she gave me last year.  I am sooo in love with this necklace!  It's such a cute accessory due to the details and multicolor beads.  Very original which she bought from Manila.  Thank you so much KAT!!!  Muwah!!

Close-Up shots....
(see the paintings on the beads)

Love the oriental vibe so much!!

Last but not least, a close-up shot of my gold earrings.  I have totally forgotten about these earrings which I believe I bought them like 4 years ago!!  LOL!
(I tell you, my closet is like a treasure hunt...hahahahah...you'll never know what's in there!  LOL!)

That's all folks for today!  Hope you like the pix.

Next post will be about my GIVEAWAY..:D  Stay tuned!

Cheers,
