A bit behind on my travel posts but you know how it is when you’re traveling, trying to make the best of it so haven’t really had the chance to sit down and post. Here’s a quick recap on my 2nd day in LA, Carla took me to Old Town Pasadena to shop for a bit, Buca di Beppo (review to come) for lunch, The American at Brand for some more shopping then ending it with dinner at the new Din Tai Fung (around the corner from the old one)! I was beat by the end of the day, more to come…

H&M - Central
68 Queen’s Road
Central, Hong Kong
852-2110-9546

During the last few days of my stay in Hong Kong, I went to H&M at Central to kill sometime before dinner (my second time there). The Central store is HUGE and was packed with tons of people, well may be because it was a Saturday. Tons of tourists and locals swamp the store, I didn’t buy anything that day but I did find a lot of cute stuff and is planning to cop a few back in NYC. Lots of floral pieces and a wall full of gladiator sandals in various colors, seems like its not so popular in Hong Kong. There was a pair of fringe sandals that I thought was kinda cute but the line to pay was crazy and my friend has already arrived so I gave it up. Hopefully I’ll see it in NYC, if not its not a big deal since I wasn’t too crazy about it. I only took pics of the accessories and shoes since there’s not much new clothes since the last time I’ve posted about the Langham Place store.

*I did buy a few pieces from H&M in Hong Kong but never had a chance to post it yet, will do soon!*

April 2, 2008 - Fendi 10+ Party in Hong Kong

The second event that I attended last night was the Fendi 10+ Party at Gallery By The Harbour. The event is to pay tribute to the iconic Fendi Baguette Bag. The Baguette Bag marks its 10th anniversary with a collection of 10 bags in 10 pure colors designed by Silvia Fendi to celebrate the importance of colors.

The party was bumpin’ with DJ Becareful Lee (Sam Lee) spinning, many local celebrities, models, fashionistas, socialites and friends came through. The party was full of color and life, not only were you able to mingle with your friends there were also colorful cookies , star shaped jellos and “Fendi” ice cream to satisfy your sweet tooth! Besides munching, you can release your inner creativity by spray painting on the walls - it was dope! This is definitely one of the best parties I’ve been to in awhile, very creative also - there’s just so much to do there you won’t get bored. Bigups to Trish and Real!

If you’re in Hong Kong you should def check out the Fendi 10+ exhibition at Gallery By The Harbour, it starts April 3rd through April 27th.

Gaile (model) & Me @ Prada, Hong Kong - April 2, 2008

Just came home not too long ago from two events, the first was the Prada “Trembled Blossoms” Premiere Party and new Prada Elements store opening (check back tomorrow for the second event). Celebs, models, fashion icons and socialites came out last night for a private party at the Prada store at Elements. The event was an unveiling of the Prada’s first animated short film, Trembled Blossoms that captures the essence of Prada’s Spring/Summer 2008 Collection. If you haven’t seen the video, you should it’s quite beautiful and interesting. Bigups to Trish and Francis.

Edith & Me

Earlier this week on Monday, March 31st I hit up the HOODS Opening Event as Neighborhood and WTaps celebrate the opening of their Hong Kong store at Western Market. Lance said that the venue is one of the few places in HK that is actually a good venue for concerts (indeed it was), there was also a live performance by Jackie & The Cedrics. It was super crowded that night (but fun) with streetwear heads, celebs, models and socialites. I didn’t take that many photos that night so if you’re feelin’ for some more - check Freshness. Bigups to Lance!

Check out the store if you’re in Hong Kong…

This may be the shortest post of my travel entries haha, didn’t snap up that many pics that day. After lunch with B, we headed to visit my friend Tricia at her dad’s place. She prepared some barbecue for dinner and we all just chilled and watched Jay Chou’s concert haha. It is fun times just hanging out and chit chatting with people you like, ain’t need to be out and about all the time to have fun.
