Fashion Slaves...what are you wearing today?

[Reload Wife]

Reload Wife,
Your outfit today is elegan. I love everything about it.  Very unique indeed especially the design of your blouse and skirt.  I also love the necklace.  It's rare.   

Thanks. My colleague told me that my outfit looks Victorian. I am loving the collar necklace trend. I have two collar necklaces.

Please feel free to give me suggestions on the do's and don'ts.  All comments are welcome.

I won't be going on any dates for while , but I guess I can contribute. 

This is what my son and I wore a few weeks ago to his gf's surprise bday party.  He's sporting a black slim fit shirt, rolled up sleeves, and a blue striped tie.  I was wearing a full Macy's Men's Store light pin stripe black suit and a Claiborne Modern Fit short sleeve shirt with no tie. 

The story was that our family was getting family pictures taken that night and the gf was invited to take pics with us (her parents and my son came up with idea).  The photo studio had a large, open room upstairs where they usually have photo shoots, but also rents for private parties.  All of her friends, her parents, uncles/aunts, and the DJ were already there at 8 PM.  Surprise was scheduled for 8:15, but my son and his gf took really long.  We actually met them on the main level at around 8:30 and I even acted angry telling them they were late.   We all walked upstairs and everyone shouted out SURPRISE!  She was very surprised.  

We were the most dressed out of everyone but it was OK because we were the only Asians there, so might as well look classier.  My wife was commenting on how many of the teenage friends were staring at us - probably in shock at how young we look.   Most kids that age have parents that are 40+ years old.  We're not.   Sorry, but the gf's mom took the pic waist up only.

Ron Burgundy and pea-gravel you gentlemen looks very handsome.

Summerberry - You have a great collection of shoes.

[Reload Wife]

Thanks RW and Trouble.  I'm learning and am glad that I have you fashionable ladies to learn from.

RW, beautiful as always!  I'm obsessed with collar necklaces at the moment too.  I picked up one from F21 few weeks ago, but I don't think it's as beautiful as yours.  The jewelry dept at the F21 here is quite limited.

Trouble,  again, beautiful and classy!  Sad to say, but the mirror in the bathroom at my place of employment is hideously small!  It's no bigger than 16x20!  When I'm not rushing out in the mornings, I will try to take at home.

Thanks for sharing ladies!

Sukie I got lucky. I has been eyeing the necklace on the Forever21 online site but didn't want to spend the money for shipping.  I went to Forever21 looking for another necklace and found the collar necklace. I have a plain gold one from Forever 21. 

The bathroom here at work doesn't have full length mirror so I use the reflection on the glass window to take my full length photo.

I was short on time this morning so I throw this simple Forever21 dress and add a belt all within 10 minutes.

Sukie, gorgeous... am inlove with your necklace...


RW, love your lace skirt and the shirt... I like the necklace, but seems to be in competition with the skirt... I would love to see this necklace with a more simple outfit.  The simple dress is very ladylike and chic... that's the one thing I love about dresses... is when in a crunch for time, you don't need to worry whether they match or not.


Trouble, love both of your casual date night outfits... try swapping both top for a "opposite" color and not so neutral look... just something different.

Thanks LL for the suggestion. I'll keep that in mind.

[Reload Wife]

Simple today.  Navy blue sportcoat, light blue polo, pleated khakis, tan calf skin loafers. 

Very nice.

[Reload Wife]

Reload - you wear lace so well! I love the lace skirt on you.

Trouble - sophisticated as always. I wish I look that good wearing neutrals. LOL...


Been so busy here so no time for pictures.

Today I'm wearing a blue chambray shirt (Gap) w/ my navy H&M blazer and my infamous black Talbot pants. Decided to top things off with a pink necklace. Pretty casual.

Thanks. Anemone. I hope you will get a chance to post your photo soon. I miss seeing them.
