What i am wearing today!

hi girls, just took a quick snapshot of myself. about to leave for yoga, after that dinner with my girlfriend. to those who know me, is what i am wearing very kym? after i shot the photos and look at it, i really feel this is quite uncannily the kym kind of fall styling. skinny jeans in boots. and lengthy cardigan. hahaha. anyway. yes i am wearing the new pair fo grey faded skinny jeans and my new boots! and the new scarf and the new cardigan. ok i got to run, i am going to be late! later!

KYURII Stylebook: Vests!

Are you guys liking the vests? we reckon that they are the best items to create layers in winterless singapore. when its warm, wear it with a tank top, and on days when its cooler, match it with a long sleeve shirt or a long sleeve tee and roll the sleeves to your elbow, then match it with denim or tailored shorts! here on kyurii stylebook, we gathered more ideas on the vest from the celebs and models to share with you! have fun!

monday at mongkok

its 12:25am now, i just came back. after yoga, kym and i went to mongkok. he went to shop for toys, i went to shop for cheap boots. and woohoo! i got it! black and plain high cut (great to tuck my new grey faded skinny jeans into). and its only 150hkd!!! GOOD BUY! then we also checked out some rabbits and chincillas at the pet shops, ate loads of yummy street food as we walked (really fun i feel like a tourist). i had my fav pearl milk tea (from my fav shop, the logo is a cute lemon head cartoon) where the pearls are smaller and much nicer than all the taiwanese franchises. oh it feels like saturday night, haha. becos we both had worked so much over the weekends, and finally tonight we can go out and have fun!

hello everyone, i just came back from buying trip! i am so happy today!! becos i found the item which i wanted so much for myself !! a pair of faded grey skinny jeans! i was looking at H&M and some other places (didnt want to spend too much on it, hehe), but i just cant find the right cut and the right tone of grey. and this morning, when i was rummaging through the clothes at my supplier's place, i caught a glimpse of grey beneath the pile, i pulled it out and its a pair of skinny in the perfect faded grey shade! at that moment, i feel like i have struck gold! hahaha! i screamed to the lady boss 'DO YOU STILL HAVE STOCK FOR THIS?' she screamed back 'YES! KYU! i know you will like it. we have stocks put aside for you!' YIPPEE! i am so happy! she calls me KYU, short form for kyurii. haha.
so for those who of you who are looking for a grey pair of jeans, dont buy first!! check out ours first, haha! i am sure you will like it! i will try to put it into the coming collection. ok i hope you girls are having fun with the current clothes! i am off for my 6pm hatha class! see you soon!!!

happy shopping

yeah i just bought my black ballerina pump! its one of those very basic things, which i always want to buy, but then end up buying something else. so finally today i got it! so happy! i will shoot it tomorrow and show you! its really hard to resist walking around cwb after my yoga class, hehe. thats the problem with hk, everywhere you go, there are shops. the little legging shop, or accessories shop, or shoe shops... so besides the pump, i also bought a black pair of leg warmers (to go with my new shoes) and a black towel material hair band (to do some variation to my hair)! yippee! and in the afternoon, after meeting up with the website people at kowloon tung, i went to H&M at festival walk, and i bought a black cap!! hahahahaha! funny how buying things can make one so happy!
lately i am crazy over kate moss, so here you go, 3 more photos of her in today's blog. one of her in her black pump! love this simple casual look, grey sweater, black skinny, ankle boots! for those who bought our grey vest JUN A-19, you can wear it like kate here (see below) with a white long sleeve tee! cool!!! Click here and scroll to the bottom to check out JUN A-19!!

the whole of my coming week!

today i worked on the website becos tmr i will be having a meeting in the afternoon. before that i will go and buy new clothes first thing in the morning, after that website meeting then followed by yoga in the evening then back home, to work out the coming collection. tues is a full day shoot, followed by yoga class with my girlfrens at 9pm. wed is a full layout day and probably some work on kyurii website to break the monotony, or maybe i will go for a trim (my hairstylist is back from australia only for a few months so maybe i should really go). i like kate moss' latest hairstyle. she cut her fringe. i am thinking of ways to prevent my hair from sticking out as its at this above shoulder length now, i hate it. i cant wait to get past this length. argh. thur is a full day shoot again plus yoga instead of japanese class which has been cancelled due to kym's busy work schedule. fri is probably buying plus more layouts to do. sat and sun, i hope to get some rest and do some shopping amidst the preparation for the coming new collection. i am thinking of getting a pair of boots and a very comfortable pair of black ballerina pump for the coming winter! i got my ankle boots already, the pair i got from amsterdam early this year which i havent worn yet. hehe.

nba weekend

yesteday we went to watch the nba china games held within the venetian casino in macau. orlando magic vs cleveland cavaliers. kym has an ex-colleague who now works in nba and he got us free tickets worth 680hkd each! very good seats! really cool! i am so happy i got to watch nba at least once in my life, not that i am a fan (in fact i know nothing of orlando magic or cleveland cavaliers) but you know to feel the mood, and cheer to the entertaining mascots and clapping to the familiar tune, played when they are attacking or defending. it was great great fun! the mood was absolutely fantastic! i really enjoyed myself!

yoga yoga yoga yoga

hello! its public holiday here today but i duno what festival it is. hehe. its a little warmer than usual today. i just got back from my 2pm yoga class. i always feel really good after yoga, like i have extra energy and clearer mind. i have booked the 1pm power yoga class for this sunday and that means i did 4 times this week. yippee! today JESS, the instructor reminded us that yoga is the union of opposites. hatha represents opposing energies: fire and water, male and female, positive and negative. hatha yoga attempts to balance mind and body, and not to go to any extremity. i think this is truly the essence of life. balancing. when we find balance in our mind, body and soul, peace will be with us. ganbatte everyone! one step at a time.

i am going to rest today

good morning everyone! haha, woke up at around 1pm today. i slept at about 4am. just talked to leekeng over the phone, she also slept really late, uploading the clothes and at the same time tending to little kimi who was crying loudly last nite. haha. this batch, i took quite a lot of pieces for myself, hohoho. btw OCT A-8.1 is the one that i wore in singapore last month and was approached by the girl from Juice mag for a snap. she said she likes the top. i should have given her our namecard! but i didnt bring it along with me then. hehe. ok! i am going to vacuum the house then have dinner with my girlfren tonite at cwb, have some alcohol maybe, chat some girly chat! ok you enjoy the rest of the evening and have a great start at work tomorrow!

KYURII OCT A sneak preview!

hi girls, finally OCT A is ready! enter the GREY area! any shades of GREY from light bluish GREY to dark solid charcoal! GREY is a major colour in fall! and it happens to be my favourite colour! i strongly think its the most easy-going colour on the palette, it compliments almost any other colour, yellow, magenta, purple, red, pink, turquiose, just to name a few. but what we really like is to keep the main outfit in the basic shades of grey with some b&w, then accent with accessories like a pair of shocking red shoes, or a bright yellow bag if you like. if not, keeping it all monotone will be just fine! Click on the fall 07 trend report from style.com to see more grey items from the runway for more inspirations!

btw, there will be a launch coming up this weekend!! i am not sure if i have time to show you the sneak preview! i will try my best. ok got to get back to work! have a great weekend ahead! happy hari raya to eirma!

my birthday yesterday


Tuesday, October 02, 2007

nicholas, you left me speechless!

balenciaga spring 08 paris show! out today! courtesy of kym, who just just forwarded me the link from fashion spot. its not even up on style.com. TAKE A LOOK! i dun even know what to say.... space for spring? i need to find out what he has in mind when designing this. i need to see the full collection to know if i like it. meanwhile, my only word is 'WOW'.



from getty images.

tubing

these are from marc jacobs spring 08. i dont particularly like this collection, but i really like how tank tops can be worn with tube tops or tube dresses! you will see this styling a lot in japanese magazines, haha all the kawaii die-hard marc jacobs fans doing their own version. i love buying tube tops, but after buying them, they usually stay in my wardrobe. haha i will only wear them once in a blue moon. but lately i am been trying to dig them out, to wear with my tanks! you try it too!

to google

hi google, please take off that 'love with chinese women' ad, or any dating similar ads. thank you very much.

crazy over scarfs!

i went out today!!! yippee! and i got many scarves!! i am just crazy over them now.. even though the weather is not cold at all, sometimes when it rains, it gets a little cool, people start putting them on. (btw they are thin scarves) i like them over tees, with skinny jeans and a dirty pair of converse. i bought skull print ones, plain ones with trimmings, ruffled ones. we will be featuring them soon! here's a quick snap of some of them! p.s. christine, i found them! hehehe.
