Black & Yellow

Welcome to the month of November! Hope everyone had an amazing weekend! For those that celebrated Halloween, what did you wear?  I spent my weekend with mixing work and fun in Vegas. As a first time Vegas guest, I am really enjoying the city--so many lights and all types of uniques things and individuals. My visit here is almost over in a day. My experience here includes the gondola ride at The Venetian and also Circus de Soleil show, which was interesting. 

Again, since it was halloween weekend, everyone here went above and beyond with their halloween costumes. People were in costumes from the dusk to dawn whether they were walking down the street or just gambling...lots of uniques and interesting costumes.

On the other hand, I wore this outfit before I left. I have been into leather lately, so I had to dig up this leather skirt that I bought last year--combing two of my current obsessions: leather and statement necklace. You can always make a simple out standout by adding a bold necklace. I am always on the hunt for bold, big, and unique pieces.

How is everyone doing? I have been battling cold, sore throat and a slight fever since Friday. I was sneezing so hard on Friday it felt like I was going to sneeze out my brains. :)  I didn't want the cold to get the best of me, so decided to grab some dinner and drinks with friends/coworkers Tracey & Chaun at the Cheesecake Factory.

On Saturday, though I was weak and felt sick, I attended a friend's wedding, which was really fun. I was able to catch up with friends--lots of laughs and jokes. The whole event was fun. I can't wait to post the outfit I made from the wedding material or "aso-ebi" as we call it.

Sunday, I relaxed and tried to make some food before squeezing in some studying. All weekend, I consumed so much green tea and lemon, which has helped quite a bit. Right now, my nose feels  congested and I have a coarse voice due to the cold.

Outfit: H&M pants, scarf and cape; Aldo shoes & bag; Michael Kors watch; Lipstick is a mix of MAC Cyber & Ruby Woo

'Styles of women’s’ winter coats

This season has brought with it an array of winter coats. One particular style that is proving to be extremely popular on the style agenda is the cape. Some of the more common styles of the cape include the capelet, cloaks and shawls, stoles and wraps.

The capelet offers a form of outerwear that opens up at the front and houses no sleeves but instead has slits where the arms would have normally been placed. There are two styles of this season’s capelet: one comes in the shape of a full circle and another takes the form of a straight shaped style. Each does the same job in covering the shoulders and judging by the autumn and winter runways, this is most definitely a trend that is perfect for the forthcoming colder months.



Cloaks are similar to the cape, however they generally appear longer in length and the typically styled capes finish mid-calf but they are also available as long as ankle-length. Cloaks also tend to be completely sleeveless and they are really handy pieces to throw around you as a great outerwear piece.



Shawls, wraps and stoles are usually wrapped around the shoulders in a loose fashion and are a great investment for evening wear. In the past they have often been created in a luxurious fabric such as fur, brocade or silk. Both designers Ralph Lauren and Luella showcased their own takes on such a piece, with Luella updating the standard fur stole and Ralph Lauren revealing a series of re-vamped evening styles. Very.uk offer all the latest winter styles at great, affordable prices.
