5 Things To Try This Month – January 2017

January is the beginning of the new year, 2017. It’s a great time to start experiencing new things. Here are my top five things I would like to try for January.


Bvlgari and Rome Exhibition

On my recent trip to Madrid, Spain, I visited the Thyssen-Bornemisza Mueseum. They showcased more than 140 pieces of jewelry from Bvlgari’s Heritage Collection (including jewels that belonged to Elizabeth Taylor). The collection was astonishing. I learned a lot about Bvlgari’s designs. (Also see the featured image, Bvlgari necklace in gold with multicolor sapphires, mandarin garnets, emeralds and diamonds.)


Red Nail Design

The Chinese New Year is in January this year. Red is the must-have color for the holidays, including the Lunar New Year. And here is my nail design for this month!


Pink Coat

Pink is the color for Year 2017. It’s worth it to invest in a nice pink coat for the season.  Miu Miu – virgin wool coat with fur.

Velvet Accessories

Velvet is still in for the season. Mary Jane style shoes have been one of my all-time favorites. It’s never too late to invest in a pair of Mary Janes in velvet. Try Dolce & Gabbana’s Crystal-embellished Mary Jane pumps!

Hot Chocolate

I really enjoyed the hot chocolate I had on my recent trip to Spain. As a matter of fact, I actually brought the hot chocolate ingredient back from Spain. I can’t wait for the weekend to make it myself.


Dolce & Gabbana Polka Dot Floral Textured Leather Shoulder Bag

Are you a big fan of polka dots? If you love polka dots as much as I do, you are in luck. There are many clothing items and accessories with polka dots for Spring 2015.

When it comes to polka dots, I usually prefer them on cloth (such as a blouse or a dress) or accessories (such as scarves or jewelry). But this season Dolce & Gabbana launched the Polka Dot Floral Textured Leather should bag. This totally caught my attention when I shopped recently at the Saks Fifth Avenue in Las Vegas.

Dolce & Gabbana’s Polka Dot Floral Textured Leader shoulder bag is not  just an ordinary handbag with polka dots. I love the prints and the mini-trunk-like design. The black dots over the red carnations on the white background leather makes it a classic and stylish bag for Spring.

I think it would look great to pair this bag with strappy leather sandals, such as Manolo Blahnik’s Beaded Leather Sandals. The red stone beads on the shoes will complement the red carnations perfectly.

If you are looking for a unique bag to add to you Spring wardrobe, this Dolce & Gabbana Polka Dot Floral Textured Leader should bag is the ideal one!

Polka Dots for Spring 2014

What do you think about polka dots on accessories and clothing? I am always very fond of polka dots. In my opinion, polka dots add a fun element to any design and reminds me of some vintage styles.

For Spring 2014, we are seeing a lot of polka dots designs on accessories and clothing. Tops, skirts, dresses, handbags, and shoes are all making appearances this season. Each year we see variety of pattern designs trend and fade away, but I know polka dots will always be popular.

One of my favorite polka dots items for the season is 3.1 Phillip Lim’s Polka Dots Blouse (available in bone beige and black/white)($501.96). I like this blouse in both colors. I can see myself wearing the blouse in bone beige with my skinny jeans during the day, and wearing the blouse in black/white with short skirt on a night out with friends. The good thing about a polka dots top like this is that it will always be a must-keep piece in my wardrobe.

I think accessories with polka dots can be fun. For example, Mika Contrasting Leather Polka Dot Pumps by Sophia Webster ($896.89) combines with 3-D flowers, and the Polka Dots Shopper Tote by Marni ($692) has bold prints. If you want to spice up your outfits, such accessories would certainly help.

Besides being fun, polka dots can be vintage. A good example of vintage style would be Dolce & Gabbana’s Polka Dots Dress for Spring 2014. This fitted polka dots silhouette with square neck reminds me a dress my mom had when I was growing up. The Dolce & Gabbana polka dots dress would be perfect from day to night.

So, if you haven’t bought polka dots this season, there are a lot of options out there. I’ve list some of my favorites below.
