    A Bit Bodycon

    September 7, 2015

    I cannot say bodycon is my thing – but I’m biased here because this dress is indeed made by the talented Alexander Wang. I wish I wasn’t so oblivious to actually miss the back shot – the zipped-through back was one of the things, along the name-dropping, that prompted a

    Broderie Anglaise Midi

    August 26, 2015

    I wish the French label, Paul & Joe, were easier to find in the country. I found this skirt on Net-a-Porter and was thrilled to snag the last size 0 in stock. This white cotton skirt has open embroidery, a.k.a. broderie anglaise (allow me to be fancy once), all over

    Brattle Square Florist is a true gem on the quaint Harvard Square in Cambridge. The shop is unassumingly rustic and perfectly laid-back. Its huge, extraordinary selections of plants and fresh-cut flowers makes it one of my favorite florists in town. These gorgeous cut roses and orchid plants are just a tip of

    Fit n Flare

    August 15, 2015

    Details make or break a dress and this LBD is full of delicate, extraordinary minutiae. The bodice is dotted with fine, embroidered feathers of the same color; the banded waist creates subtle dimensions; and the raised seaming going down the flounce makes an elegant finish. The fit cannot be better –

    Summer Stripes

    August 11, 2015

    Sporty stripes rarely fail. This Marni dress has the cutest monochrome stripes softened with sheer, layered silk fabric. With its chic mid-length and neon waistband, the skirt was love at first sight. I’m wearing a size 36 – the smallest available by then. It fits okay but I’d go down

    Summer Twirls

    August 7, 2015

    I felt the urge to jump and twirl in a this chiffon pleated skirt! Despite the scorching heat, wearing this light and flowy skirt keeps my spirits high. The midi length, the elegant pink-black-duo, and the fine pleats all together make an unparalleled ensemble. Here’s a quick word about its slightly tricky fit though: I’m

    George Town Cupcakes makes some of my favorite cupcakes in town. Some of the flavors I keep getting include peanut butter fudge and this lovely strawberry chocolate that I’m sharing with my bae who’s in town visiting. How’s your week going so far? It’s almost Friday! xx – D

    Black Satin

    August 3, 2015

    Acne Studios makes some of the chicest designs out there, and I’m obsessed with this dress by them. The thick satin has perfect drape; the cross-over panels on the back add just right amount of details to the clean-lined cut. I’ve worn it with sandals, sneakers, and have tucked it into a
