Changing colours

Living in the Pacific North West has been spoiling me of forgetting how beautiful of an environment I am constantly being surrounded by. I took a stroll during lunchtime at the small park nearby work. Saw a couple excitedly taking pictures of the leaves using their phone. I said "pretty colours eh?" They responded "oh my god, YES. We are from Florida and we have never seen trees with this colour!" I smiled and walked away. I really need to slow down and appreciate what is around me sometimes. Mother nature created so many beautiful things for us to enjoy and often we forgot to do so. My day had suddenly became more fulfilling and I went back to work with a smile on my face :)

Thanks for stopping by! Keep that smile on your face :)

New favourite jeans

Something about downtown Portland I love is unexpected beautiful little corners. I can't believe I had missed this beautiful door in the past but I am glad that I found it. I love the colour brick. It just brighten everything up so nicely. I want to tell you about my new favoutite pairs of jeans. I bought these on a super sale earlier this year from MyHabit, had them altered but never had a chance to wear them because the weather turned warm. Well, I am so glad it is cool enough now to wear them again. The print looks amazing in pictures especially under the sunlight. It gives you the illusion as velvet texture but they are spandex cotton material and are very fitted to my curvy thighs.
Often in the winter time I much prefer be wearing jeans because they keep my body snugged and warm. Share with me your new favourite jeans for the season.
Rich and Skinny jeans from MyHabit, Vince Camuto spiked booties (old, but I love these), Iroo moto jacket (last seen here),  Balenciaga City bag and Sama sunglassess.

I am off this week. Catch my newest update through Instagram (kiwifashionblog)

Autumn sun

What do you do when the cloud decides to break up and sun starts to come in? Well, you embrace yourself in it of course! That's exactly what we did today. We decided to take a lunchtime walk. Unfortunately the sun is just too bright and it's causing glare and shadow all over my face. Excuse for the over-exposed sky, it's just way too bright to capture much detail there.
Do you try to catch some fresh air in between work? It is always refreshing to get out of the office in the middle of the d. The best thing about Oregon is the green grass and clear crisp air. I consider myself really lucky this way :)

Just a bit more than a week before I go on holiday. I can't wait! Thanks so much for reading!
