Monday, May 30th, 2011
I’m so glad I have this Monday off and I’ll be taking full advantage of it! To be honest, it has been a challenging week for me and I’ve discovered that people who you once loved weren’t the same people anymore. It was hard to accept it at first but it’s also a sign for me to move on and focus on my life completely.
This morning, I’m dreaming of:
1. Traveling some place exotic.
2. Crunchy waffles with strawberries.
3. Driving around Paris.
4. Falling in love with someone.
Love how these JCrew staffers wore their khaki pants! More here.
Aren’t these jewelry pieces amazing? They’re from Merle O’Grady Autumn/Winter 2011-2011 lookbook. More from his shop here.
This is my outfit for the memorial day weekend party! 1. Denim Shirt $40.00 (HM.com) 2. Bolso Feminine Mint Bag (shop.weareselectors.com) 4. BURGUNDY GRADUATED LENS $474.00 (Janzandcooper.com) 5. J Crew Melanie paillette-embellished merino wool skirt $350.00 (Netaporter.com) 6. HINGISFO $99.00 (ninewest.com)
This article from Esquire titled “The ultimate male addiction: The crazy girl” makes me laugh and the comments are equally hilarious. For example ” Yes, women too fall for the loonie guys – unfortunately the crazy ones usually come in very very pretty packages”. What do you think? Do you agree?
I’ll be doing lots of eating, cooking delicious food and drinking (lots of fruity juice) this long weekend!
Wishing you an amazing and relaxing Monday! xoxoxoxoxo

I hope everything is ok, love?
Those first few lines of this post didn’t sound too good 🙁
People change. Some for the worse, some for the better. As long as you stay true to yourself, you’ll be ok 🙂 *hugs*
So lucky that you have a long weekend. I hope you enjoy each day and live it to the fullest 🙂
We have a long weekend in two weeks time so I can’t wait!

You had me at waffles and strawberries!! Lol cute post 🙂
The only time people have changed in my life is to fall
out of love for me. I wish you love! I’m in love with the
denim shirt, the mint bag and of course, the sunglasses.
I’ve got to have those. So cute.
hahah ! Sounds like an amazing weekend, so brave that you are decided to change your life! =)

I’m so sorry to hear that, lovely 🙁 I hope you had a super special weekend eating delicious food and having lots of fun and feel much, much better now, though. Amazing photographs (as always!).
You sure know how to mix your high and lows, Shin: denim shirt and sequined skirt! The thing with friends is that you can count your real friends on the fingers of one hand. It’s a fact, I’ve learned my lessons too. Just make sure you know who you can keep close.
I know what I’ll be wearing today thanks to your inspiration: my khaki pants. Have a lovely day off and a wonderful week! xoxo
Love pink blouse and eat spaghetty bolognesa & Paris mon amour….

Weather was not nice during the weekend so we are going in an hour for a Monday pic-nic tea party at a park just the two of us 🙂
I might bring my camera and take some photos too, it could be a post 🙂
Enjoy your Monday Shin, as it is coming in a few hours to you.

Oh, that’s so sad… 🙁 Fortunately, I’m still friends with my ex-, whom I loved with ALL my heart. He’s a bit different of course, but quite the same. we always have a laugh together. In a way, he’s one of my soul-mates. Wish you can find the strength to carry on, sweetie! 🙂
I absolutely LOVED your outfit for the memorial weekend! That clutch! *.*
Hahaha, they like crazy girls? I consider myself to be pretty lunatic, hahaha! 😉

Hey Shin, I hope everything is ok – sounds like you’re moving onwards and upwards which is always good!! 😉 I hope you enjoyed the memorial party that sequin skirt is amazing!!
Now craving waffles, strawberries and lots of cream 😉 xxx
Hi, Shin adorable! Sometimes we do not understand why certain things happen, but I believe that everything has an explanation and it is always for the better! Got a prayer that I really like: When God takes something out of his reach, he is not punishing you but merely opening your hands to receive something better. Concentrate on this sentence …
“The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.”
I loved all your desires for Monday! They are real:)
Loved your dream! I cheer for him to perform!
May all your days be merry, you are my dear friend!
Have a wonderful Monday!
Carpe Diem!

Such a nice dream! I wish I could also do all that 🙂
As always, amazing post!!
Have a nice week 😉
sorry to hear about people “changing” – yeah that sucks. But I hope you have a fun holiday anyway! Loved your post (-:
AAaaw Chère Shin about this crazy(licious) Girl I (shyly) have to say that her “side boob(alicious)” tank (absolutely) could be dedicated to electrify your (sparkling) “sylphid-iciousity”!!!!
“Sexy Laid Back-ittude in motion” . . .
a presto, Antoine
I adore the Memorial day outfit! I wish I could dress like that today…
love the khaki pants. And the casual+dressy outfit!
have a great monday!

Oh no, I’m sorry about the difficult week you had. But I’m glad that you are able to focus on your life now. I think that as hard as it is, you must rid yourself of as much negative presence in your life as possible — especially if it is only bringing you down. I hope you are doing better now, and what an inspiring post! I love your style so much, you have the best ideas… oh and driving around Paris sounds fantastic! 🙂 Those khaki pants are so chic and wow what amazing jewelry! The last 3 photos are adorable too… hope you enjoyed the weekend. ♥

It’s hard when it happens a lot in life, I hope you are feeling okay and that you wont let anyone ever take away your happiness =)
Btw … loved the sunglasses and the bag! wow: D
Hi Shin! How are you? Myself I am fine, exceptionally so. Yes my boss might have something to do with it, he just might ;)!! Althougha part of me just isn’t that fine.. I recently reached the very same conclusions as you. I mean today I met at old friend of mine, and we are growing apart, I can tell. It never is fun, since we used to be really close. Were you and the person you once loved very close? OH! thanks for telling me, I shall for sure watch Pirates of the Caribbean! Have a great day, and talk to you soon! xoxo Nath
It’s so good to have a day off just for yourself and do a lot of things just to get relaxed!!Have a good monday as well sweety!
