Hi Love, hope you had a nice relaxing weekend.  I found it is extremely hard to find a perfect outfit for weekend go about outfit when weather changes.  I am not ready to pull out my fabulous coat, and not ready to let go of summer tops... talking about dilemmas Looking at the weather, it was at high 50s and low 60s.  I was about to go out to have breakfast with my loving family.  The tone of look today - not too fancy not too casual.  When I saw this quilted shawls I bought last year from Zara.  I know exactly what I am going to wear.  Here we go: The key to this look is layers - I have a short sleeve turtleneck sweater to start with, then a ruffle sleeve shirt from Antonio Beradi.  My fav skinny legging Jean from Express.  To complete the look,  I paired with Miumiu black shearling sneakers, and my fav Chloe bucket bag.  The last but not least Zara black quilted shawls.   I feel so good with this look.  I wore it to breakfast, a birthday party, and to dinner.  To a chic m

IT Jeans with IT bag - hottest trend of 2018

I have been searching for a perfect pair of wide leg crop Jeans.  Not whole lot of selection in the market right now.  They are either too expensive (in $400s) or cheap but bad quality.  It was my lucky day when I stumbled upon this Lucky Brand  Wide Leg Denim Crop Trouser In Sea Lane .  It was on sale (50%), and you get free shipping if you pick it up from store.  All in all, $50... yes, I know you are smiling It looks okay in the picture.  The only concern I had is that I felt that width of Leg was not as wide as I was hoping for.  But since I can return it to store if I don't like, so I ordered anyway. So when I got I notification that it arrived.  I went to picked up in the Store.  The very fashionable sales person immediately complimented my then outfit (one of the outfit from my Jeans, Jeans, Jeans post).  I told them that I have a blog and an instagram account which I post everyday, and if I like The Lucky Brand,  I will write a review, and post it too.  So here we

The IT bag - Chloe Bucket Bag This season's hottest trend is bucket bags.  I love small Chloe Bucket Bag.  I t is  11'' H X 9'' W X 6'' D.   It is big enough to provide a lot of space for your daily stuff.   But not too big to overwhelm a petite girl like me.   It has t op leather handle for more formal wear, and r emovable, adjustable canvas strap for your weekend casual look.  I especially like drawstring to close the bag securely.  be secure.   You can buy them in Saks, Neimans, Bergdorf, or Net-a-porter.   Today, I paired it with a relaxed Sunday casual look.  I will continue posting different looks with this bag to give you some different ideas. Detail of my look top - Zara.  I bought this from Zara last year.  But you can find similar style in Zara right now.  Just want to make sure it has a little edgy to it Jeans - from my favorite Jean store - express. They are still available (girl friend fit) Bell - Hermes Sunglasses - Miumiu fro

To be honest, I wasn't a big fan of Jeans.  However, I admire some of the sexy mamas out there rock their jeans.  Through the years, I have bought all kinds of Jeans, expensive or not, nothing look good on me.  So I gave up on Jeans until one day A fabulous girlfriend of mine, and a fellow hot mama was wearing a pair of white destressed jeans.  It looked so good on her so I had to ask... The rest is history...  Those jeans are so comfortable, fit me like a glove, look unbelievable...  Are you ready?  they are from express jeans(https://www.express.com) I know.  I feel that I look like a jeanie princess in it.

Fancy Casual - Chunky sneaker and LBD

Image
You may already know one of the hottest trend of this year is Chunky sneaker.  Yes, it is cool to get a very fancy sneaker just to be in trend.  That's not my style.   Chic is my trade mark.  I don't want to put on a pair of chunky sneakers, and look chunky.  The best way to dress down is by dress up.  This Issey Miyake LBD goes perfect with Pucci chunky sneaker.  Casual but Fancy.  Just the way I like it.  It is perfect for day or night. I got both dress and sneak when I was in Florence this summer.  You don't need get the exact the same dress.  However, the dress need to have a little edge to it.  I think the traditional LBD will look a little strange with Chunky sneaker as those may go best with the high heels.   if you want to get high end chunky sneakers, I like Net-a-porter, bergdorfgoodman, neimans, or saks.  You can also found tons of selection in zappos, addidas.  

A new day - Chic Mom Factor

Hi everyone, I am known as chic_mom_factor in instagram, new to blog world. Although a IT veteran, and have heard and read other people's blogs for many years, never bothered to start blogging myself. Today, I finally decided to create my own blog. A self-claimed fashionista and fancy-pants, I love to play with my styles. You may think it is so vain to say that. But be honest, it is in me since I was little. Grown up in a family that have 4 daughters, Mom and Dad tried their best to provide us with comfortable life. There were not much extra go to about. I always want to be the ones with the most beautiful dress or "fancy" shoes. Nobody is perfect. But with right style, you can look like million dollars! Research showed the better put together you are, the more confident you are. Rest will follow. Through the years, I started to learn what suit me the best, in the meantime, I am not afraid to try new things new styles. People stopped me on t
