Did we fight or did we not?

Inspired by the Parisian chic outfits spotted at Paris Fashion Week (which just came to an end), I came up with this outfit for a quick cup of cuppa with Teeny!

Parisian chic to me is fashion statements that are simple, but pronounced. I went with a simple tee and tapered pants ensemble, but I love that the pants are punctuated with a peplum hem for a twist. The peplum is detachable, how ingenious is that? :P

I can't stress how much I love this backless tee! I have it in black and gray as well. They are the perfect softness with the lazy fit that I like for tees, and I like that it is not just another boring tee.

The boy's relatives do not agree though. His uncle walked pass me that day, and asked us, "did you guys fight?" Perplexed, we replied no. He replied, "Oh, I thought both of you fought, and he ripped the back of your shirt." HAHAHAHA WTF.

Wanted to keep the whole look very clean, so I wore monochromatic-colored shoes as well. The only pop of color on me is my bag and my nails! :)

The kind of parents we will be.

The boy and I have always talked about what kind our parents we are going to be. We know each other really well, and we both have respect for one another in terms of values that we share and prioritize, and we have long agreed that our parenting will be a good mix for our kids in the future.

However, if how we treat Rocky is an any indicator, our kids are going to have a warped childhood, growing up being teased and made fun of by us.

For example:

#1. Wear unnecessary apparel that makes you look 100 times sillier.

#2. Get all amazed that your ears can cover your eyes, and check to see everyday that you haven't lost the ability.

#3. Make you model a turban.

#4. Place you on a piano, and laugh when you are shocked that every step you made created a sound. We are only trying to encourage your musical tendencies!

#5. Wear a red plastic bag on you as a Superman cape, and take videos of you running around the house.
(Warning: Plastic bags are very dangerous for kids/ pets, so supervise closely!)

#6. Put you in a monkey suit.

#7. Revamp you to look like a rock icon.

 Are you pitying our future kids now? HEHEHE.

Now, the question is, what should we dress Rocky as for Halloween? All suggestions are welcomed, please!

The skort that is taking over the world.

What is your take on these famous Zara skorts? Just typing 'Zara skort' in Google, and you get thousands of results, with even heavyweight fashion literature like Lucky mag and Glamour covering this phenomenon which has taken over the fashion world.

I fell prey too.

Awkward dorky grin.

To be fair to myself, I didn't know about the 'trend' when I bought these skorts! I just thought they were cute, and has many styling possibilities. Brought home my Zara paper bag and found out that Teeny just bought the exact same pair the day before. -_-

Some of my favorite looks of the skorts: *click*

Wore this for an AZORIAS photoshoot!

Seen here with our new model who is so utterly gorgeous it is annoying wtf. She came into the studio looking fresh and perfect, and I peered over her, and asked her whether she had any make up on. She replied, 'oh, just a bit of powder'. T__T Even our make up artist said she didn't need any further make up, we can straight away start shooting WTF.

Life is so unfair!! To check out better photos here, go to here. I kind of think she looks like a cross between Rachel Bilson and Olivia Palermo! I repeat, life is so unfair. T__T

Love the funky print on this tee! And I like the boxy fit of it, it just seems more modern and formal somehow.
