The sales rock :: Shopping in Milan

July did bring me a lot of lucks. One of them was the fact that I set foot on Milan streets and walked in fashion stores then stepped out with purchased shopping bags. That's maybe a simple happiness of every shopaholic I reckon. But to me, it meant more than that. Milan was always my dream city and coming there was always my dream. Finally after years I made it, I could watch my dream city with my naked eyes and buy things that I desired and that I just had to pay half price only. My decision about the trip to Milan in July did not disappoint me at all. The crazy sales rocked. Needless to say, I felt overwhelmed with happiness and excitement during my whole trip in Milan. Even up to now I still wish I could have extended my sojourn in Milan. If next year and years ahead, you happen to be in Milan or plan to visit Milan during your summer holiday, don't miss out Milan of July and don't forget to walk along these following streets Corso Vittorio Emanuele, Corso Buenos Aires, Via Torino and Corso di Porta Ticinese ;) XOXO

Happy birthday to me!

Well, well, well, I have turned a new age officially. Just can't be happier :). This age is said to be the most beautiful period of time in each one's life. I just can't agree with who said that more. At this big moment of life, I find myself so lucky for having a great family to live with, cool and sweet friends to share with, almost all types of bittersweet experience in life to feel and learn and big dreams to follow.

Happy July!

So it is, July has come. A new month has come and I am wishing you guys a productive month with all coolest wishes in this hot summer :)

July, it's my fav month ever. At least two big events are coming to me this month. The first one is that I am going to Milan, one of four biggest fashion cities in the world beside London, Paris and New York. It seems like I am going to the chic paradise ^_^ (happy face). And another one is that I will be turning to a new age. Hopefully, brighter things will come to and stay with me. I am very excited and eager waiting for them and also other unscheduled things which may happen in this month and the future. 

Just a few words I would love to share with you guys about my exciting feeling overwhelmed with motivation :) Happy Monday! Happy July dears :) XOXO

When in Rome:: The place I can call home

It's been over 3 weeks now since I came here, Rome, Italy, but today I just have a chance to update my stay in Rome. I am so lucky to get here, stay in a lovely apartment, make friends with amazing people from different countries. That's how exactly my life goes on and should move on. I am happy like over the moon and want to share my happiness with you guys, my readers. Also, I do hope that your life is going on the way you want it to be. 

Here come the photos of my apartment in Rome where I would like to stay forever. I'm gonna miss it when leaving .. definitely... :(

Off to Cinque Terre

It's been quite long that I haven't written anything on my beloved blog since I prepared for my stay in Italy and now I'm here, Italy, the dreamland with massive Roman ruins and beautiful natural scenes. Needless to say, I'm so happy writing again like this. Well I would love to share with you guys that I am going to one of the most charming places in the world, let say. It's Cinque Terre. I'm now so excited and ready for my weekend at Cinque Terre, part of UNESCO world heritage. For sure I will upload my photos and entry  about this fairy-land. So please   keep watching my posts and have yourself a fabulous weekend too :) Have a great weekend everybody!

Duomo in Florence, Italy

Recently I have been excited about my upcoming summer trip. A lot of beautiful places in the world have appeared on my mind. One of them is the Duomo in Florence/Firenze, Italy. I've been to Florence once and that's absolutely a stunning place where I would love to stay forever. Florence first impressed me with its monumental Duomo, located right in the center of town. The Duomo or Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore in Italian or Basilica of Saint Mary of the Flower in English is the cathedral in Florence and one of the largest churches in Italy. It was constructed in the 13th century in Gothic style. Now the whole cathedral complex is recognized as the UNESCO World Heritage Site. I am sure that if you happen to be in Florence, you definitely see this marvelous Duomo. And now I am showing some of the photos of the Duomo I took. Let's check out its beauty. 

In the morning:

Tuscany

I'm so happy to share with you that I'm preparing for my summer trip. And a must-see place I really really want to pay a visit is Tuscany in Italy, specifically the Chianti region with cypresses, sunflower fields, stunning hills. Actually, I did visit Tuscany last year but just Florence and Pisa only. I didn't have the opportunity to see natural landscapes in other regions in Tuscany. So I do wish to make it this year. 

Look at these pictures my desire is just getting higher and higher =)

Summer Dream

(Photo by Tunx)

A free verse has come across my mind but in Vietnamese. So I quickly translated into English, but sorry that I'm not talented enough to make a poem in English, just simply retain the bare meaning of the poem. It is about my high hope of having a looooong wavy hair for hanging out while wearing maxis, sunglasses, sedge flip-flops and Elizabeth Arden Green Tea Perfume in summer. It would be a graceful, feminine and sexy look. Hope you like it :)

I like dessert and more

My friend Tunx and I had a joyful time enjoying desserts at a new store at No. 1 Ngo Tram named "I like dessert" the other day. The name says it all. There were so numerous desserts that I couldn't order just right away. I was attracted by a series of kinds of ice-cream, mousse and other desserts (it's called chè in Vietnamese).

Colorful life on colorful feet

Summer is coming. It's good time to go camping, climb the mountain, travel somewhere, etc. And that's my fav season ever. For this special period of time, I am thinking about colorful sneakers which are quite useful for such kind of outdoor activities. Why colorful?

Paris Je T'aime

Some of my friends are going to leave for Paris next week. This reminds me a lot of last year when I was preparing for my EU field trip and staying in Paris after that. Paris is like a pretty girl in love. She can express her gentle manner, lovely romance but she can also turn to be stuck-up right away

Little Break

Here in Vietnam it's national holiday and then weekend, so we have 3 days off and for me it's kinda little break. Not a few people travel somewhere to enjoy the break, but I decide to stay still in the city to gather with my relatives and friends. We are gonna throw a family party and I just can't wait for that.

These minutes of break inspire something pure and gentle into me. And WHITE is the first thing I think about. The following are exactly what I would love to put on during this short holiday. They are quite simple and classic, which I really love. Also, they are easy to mix with each other. Now I am ready for going out. Have a fabulous weekend everybody :) XOXO

Japanese Traditional Dolls

A week ago, I and my friends were so happy to welcome our JENESYS friend from Malaysia - Huda - in Hanoi. Three years and a half ago, we all participated in a JENESYS program called Japan - ASEAN Student Conference in Japan. Although our time spending together was not much, we felt regretted saying goodbye to each other when the program ended and our mission was accomplished. It was like magical luck that we were granted to know each other and be friends till today. Since then, we have kept in touch with each other and tried to make international reunions as many as possible. That's really meaningful to our lives and we cherish all the time we can be together. And this time, Huda did it! She's been traveling several ASEAN countries and one of her stops was Hanoi.

As Huda looked forward to visiting Vietnamese Women's Museum

My must have items in spring

Here in Hanoi, it's just March but the weather is hot like summer during daytime, even the temperature sometimes increases up to more or less 30 Celsius degree. Living in this kinda heat, my skin is easy to get oily. Recently I have just used

Happy Xmas and New Year!

Festive season finally has come. Let's think about what we have done during this year. Some of us have maybe recorded great achievements but perhaps some haven't. Whatever the consequences are, we should move forward with positive thoughts and actions for a better year, future ahead and for beloved ones around us.  From the bottom of my heart, I wish everybody a very happy Christmas and new year. May love, success, health, wealth, joy and happiness be with you all year round.

Best with love,

Louis Vuitton L'Invitation au Voyage

I'm so in love with this huge brand Louis Vuitton. If you are a fashionista, I bet you are too. Just watching its every single collection or single product can take me hours straight. And now I think it's gonna happen again when Louis Vuitton is about to project its very own film "L'Invitation au Voyage" which is exclusively on Facebook.  If you are interested in that, quickly access to Louis Vuitton's Facebook Page. Just about 3 days to go. Can't wait :)

Festival of Students

As usual, there is a festival of Vietnamese Students living and studying in Korea hosted by Vietnamese Students' Association in Korea (VSAK) every October. It's gonna happen this weekend. My dear friend Izabella has had me suggest an appropriate outfit to wear on such a day. I have flashed several ideas to consult my friend. Below is my suggestion for a suitable appearance at VSAK fest.  There are various options like wearing a feminine dress or active trousers. But above all, my concept is to have a decent but youthful and in-style look. Here are the looks I've created and recommended my chum. How do you think?

The glamour of moonlight

My BFF and I went shopping the other day and we found one gold blouse at Charming Lys. It did look gorgeous  and make us change our chat topic to "how to combine such a top with other things in order to have a decent look at work".  This excited my chic brainstorming and here is its result. I mixed a gold shirt with a leather tulip skirt and ton-sur-ton accessories together. They give me an elegant and noble style which is suitable for opulent meetings or evening cocktail parties after work.  How do you think?

Sunday Camping

A day has gone. I completely had a very cool Saturday out with friends. Each day is part of a chain of memories. I'm doing my best to make every single day of mine amazing so that I can own a fantastic chain - a stunning accessory, isn't it? ^^  On the way back home, I was thinking about my Sunday plan - what should I do with the last day of this weekend? hmmm Amazingly, my close friend came up with an idea to have a look of dark green and light yellow. This is awesome. Such dark green and light yellow make a perfect match. I totally love this idea and flashed a look associated these natural colors. The green and yellow bring me a close feeling to nature with trees, leaves and sunshine. It would be great to go camping or have a picnic under canopies of leaves and warmie sunshine on Sunday :) So here is the outfit I have chosen for Sunday. Happy Sunday! Happy camping! - XOXO
