When the Phillip Lim 3.1 for Target Collection was released, I was lucky enough to be able to pick up what mostly I wanted to get: the Boom Sweater and Satchel Mini Bag. With no doubts, I adore the collection very much and just fell in love with how cool and fun both items are! 

There are lots of trends you could follow this season, and Club Kids naturally has become one of my favorite styles! It's fun, fresh and bright. But most importantly you can go freaking crazy to style up yourself! That's what it is all about with today's look.
I received a BAD-ASS spiky cap (OMG! I've never seen such a crazy cap like this!) and gold bracelet set from the Charlotte Russe team in one of their care packages (YES!!! I've even got the third one just a few days ago!!!! Thank you CR <3 ) When I first looked at the cap, this look immediately popped up in my head... The look itself seems very simple, but the cap and the sweater definitely speak to it! I paired up with Forever 21 Faux Leather leggings, Urban Outfitters spike cuff earrings, and Jeffrey Campbell LITA SPIKE boots to upgrade the look even more. 

To finalize, I added a bit of dark-hued color to my lips! I don't know why the tincture of my hair looks really beautiful yet it blended amazingly with the makeup! I also really like how the whole fit creates the essence of 80's vibe!!! 

Do you adore Club Kids trend as much as I do?
Hopefully I will be able to share other Club Kids trended look down the road!

Happy Holidays LOVEs!!!

Charming Charlie Grand Opening Event!!!





-------------------------------------------------


Today's post is all about a new store named Charming Charlie which opened in Redmond, WA!!!
 I had never heard of this brand until I received an invitation for the Grand Opening event, which is really too bad for me! Now that I have been there, I really adore Charming Charlie now!!!
The new store had its launch last weekend (Oct 15th) at the Redmond Town Center. The exterior is quite lovely with its bright pink door and wide glazed windows -- as you can see in the first picture. 

Before I start talking about my shopping experience at this shop, allow me to introduce Charming Charlie a bit...

"Charming Charlie made its debut in 2004 with one very colorful and clear mission: help very woman, everywhere, find her fabulous. We're crazy for color. We live for sparkle. We thrive on making a statement. Why? Because we know accessories have the power to transform both your outfit and your outlook.  Jewelry, handbags, eyewear, scarves, shoes, and more all grouped together in your favorite colors -- thousands of accessories in one store! Plus friendly Charmeres ready to help you unleash your one-of-a-kind style -- we call it finidhing your fabulous. From the tip of your tiara to the point of your pumps, Charming Charlie wants to bring our your most fabulous, fierece and fun self every single day. " (Cited from www.charmingcharlie.com)

You know how much I love to accessorize, and I really love how all of the accessories and jewelry are displayed throughout their store! I've never seen a store that organized by color the way they do. The layout allows you to mix several pieces together in similar shades. For example, you could layer a few ( or MORE) necklaces in the same colors but in totally different textures and shapes... How fun is that? To a person who loves layering like I do, this store is definitely now on the regular visit list. The sales reps are also very friendly and inviting, and they are all well-dressed with Charming Charlie pieces!!!! I kept asking them the same question: "I love the necklace you are wearing! Where can I get it?" They are like walking mannequins! lol

  I am very fascinated with the store displays as well. The stunning shiny chandeliers, white boxy in-walls with tons of lovely items, European-inspired huge mirrors... I was very satisfied and overjoyed just as I strolled around the store! As you shop, you will surely be inspired thanks to the thousands of accessories! It was so extreme that I had so much trouble deciding what I SHOULD buy! Their well thought out displays give you plenty of awesome tips on how you can mix and put accessories and jewelry together!!!!
Have you ever felt that you were looking for something but could't find that perfect right thing you really wanted?
Well, you can say goodbye to that feeling now! Charming Charlie can solve it right away. Now you can go to their store because CC is where you can find exactly what you are looking for...


Here are the items I bought, and I love every piece so much!
They are offering a Buy One, Get One Free deal, so I took advantage of it to buy the gold necklace and earrings and saved some money! :) 


Did  you like what I got from Charming Charlie???
You can buy some of the items online as well!


(Available in 5 colors: Black, Dark Blue, Orange, Red, & Wine)
(Available in 3 colors: Black, Light Brown & Light White)

A special thanks to Kimberly for the invitation to have me tour the store!
I wanted to share this little gem of a store in case you hadn't heard of Charming Charlie  and I hope you can be inspired by my shopping experience there! Make sure to check them out online or/and in store if you live near by them! (Here is the direct link to STORE LOCATOR!!)

Have a great one!

rag & bone Reception Party at Bellevue Square





--------------------------------------------


About two weeks ago, on the 3rd of October, I was invited to rag & bone reception party and a personal appearance with Marcus and David. I was so flattered to be there although I was super nervous at the same time since I'd never attended this kind of party. I had no idea what to wear until the day before the party, either.

I ended up wearing a TOM BOY style in a dressy way. I will write another blog about this outfit later, so stay tuned for the post and details! I definitely loved how I styled myself up! I randomly got so many compliments from the people at the party, even from a photographer! YAY!

I adore their F/W collection for both mens and womens! To me rag & bone is a bit pricey. But I would definitely wear it if I can afford lol  I typically don't wear simple clothes, yet each of their piece is well-made and well-textured, and I found a lot of awesome garments I wanted to wear/own right away. I love the color palette of the collection that ranges from icy to earthy, encompassing mineral green, metallic grey, teal, olive, dark brown, eggplant and orange.  If I have a boyfriend, I would love to shop together at rag & bone! I am impressed with how their collection matches the ideal style that I want my bf to wear! haha

Besides taking a look at their collection, I also enjoyed the party with the provided refreshments, photo-taking with David and Marcus, and the band performing by a local band Campfire OK. At the last minute of leaving the party, I had fun as well chatting with really friendly people, sharing my thoughts and dreams regarding fashion! We decided to snapping ourselves for the memory! :)

Special thanks to Jessica, a Fashion PR at Nordstrom for inviting me to this wonderful and fun event!
I really hope to get invited more down the road so that I can get to connect with more new people! :)
