8843618473?profile=originalThese extremely long overdue pictures from my last trip to Musée du Bonbon Haribo are just too tempting not to share with my fashionista friends. If you’re a Haribo fan and happen to be in Southern France, do pay a visit to Haribo’s one-of-a-kind fashion showcase at the sweet museum and feast your eyes on the edible collection made from the signature gummy crocodiles, marshmallows and black licorice wheels. I’m not really a big fan of this 100-year-old German confectionery brand but its creativi

8843606864?profile=originalAfter being caught up in the hustle and bustle of a packed work schedule for three months, I finally had time to sit down and post up my visit to Viniga back in March. From a workshop to a retail store, the launch of its first stand-alone boutique this year has witnessed not only the uplifting growth of the brand but also the founder's uncompromising faith in and passion for exploring timeless style. No one understands Coco Chanel's famous quote “fashion fades, only style remains the same” bette

Tadashi Shoji Spring/Summer 2016 collection featured beautiful and romantic nature scenes of Japan in spring when peonies, irises and sakura are blooming in the fantastical pastel garden reminiscent of the designer’s sweet childhood memories from his motherland. The typical Shoji type of ethereal elegance and delicate femininity were fully reflected in subtle sheerness, intricate floral embroidery and appliqués embellishments. The gorgeous exceptional violet color literally caught my eye among a

The true pleasure is to work with people I am on the same wavelength with. A young aspiring Hong Kong-based columnist/writer, Holly Chan (陳政元) is able to look beyond the glamorous surface of fashion by exploring alternative perspectives. In her recent article, she made an insightful analogy between my modeling different styles of hats (from a fancy feather swirl fascinator, super sized Comtesse Violette Rosette to a classic English pillbox hat) and the various facets of female beauty.

At iBlues X Marta Grossi BANANA à PORTER Press Preview (Hong Kong), banana graffiti girl Marta created a tailormade graffiti just for me which represents her interpretation of me based on the first impression. I got the most graceful and classy pink tulips on my banana. Marta drew me the national flower of the Netherlands without knowing that I just attended an exhibition of Van Gogh’s exclusive painting collection. It couldn’t just be an amazing coincidence, could it?

“Starry, starry night

Life is full of surprises; you never know what it will bring you next. Being both spatially and temporally far from Vincent van Gogh, I truly can’t believe life brought me to this surreal and unforgettable meet-up with the family of my forever idol painter - Mr. Willem van Gogh, great-grandnephew of Van Gogh more than a century after his death at the preview of the exclusive Relievo Collection in Hong Kong (@The Dutch Days in Hong Kong). What’s more, I got an autograph of Mr. Van Gogh on my trea
