Life Mottos


Sometimes I think Coco Chanel knows all.
She's always inspirational to me.
And she knows what to say.
Life quote for the end of the summer.
and life quote for starting a new life, new job, new place.




Photo Inspirations: the Emmys


I feel like all the awards are gathered together
just so that stars have to battle it out
but its the EMMYS
and we have to figure out whos best dressed ;)

but first heres the winner's list:

Photo Inspiration: MTV Video Music Awards


Its the award of the year.
MTV Video Music Awards are always full of fun.
And they are totally memorable.
Remember last year when twerking Miley Cyrus was all over Robin Thicke?
Or the year before that when Taylor Swift surfed the crowd.
And of course when Queen B announced she was pregnant.
MTV Video Music Awards seems to be when huge news gets revealed.

Here's some of our fav looks from tonight :)

Amy's Random Thoughts


I don't know if any of you is avid Sex and the City fans.
Or maybe I'm all old and everyone's onto new things like Girls.
But today I feel like Carrie Bradshaw.
I am sitting in my room, with my computer and contemplating life.
With Taylor Swift's new song, shake it off, as a background
and of course a glass of red wine.

Feel Beautiful Because You Are


We are so popular recently (shamelesss)
but we have been tagged in another challenge!
We were challenged by Emma Elise at It's Emma Elise
The challenge is 5 photos that make you feel beautiful :)

Since we are sisters, we decided to pick five each!
This challenge is really great and honestly everything we believe in.
There are gonna be some photos that don't exactly display us in the best light
but we love them. and here's why!

Bubblegum's Finds: Haiku

Haiku

When: Daily, 11.30-2pm 5.30-10pm
Where: Various Locations. This store in particular is located in IFC Shanghai. B1/F, 8 Shiji Da Dao, near Lujiazui Huan Lu 世纪大道8号, 国金中心IFC商场B1楼, 近陆家嘴环路
Why: Cause who doesn't love sushi? And who doesn't love NEW styles of sushi?! It is taking an old classic and making a twist. All the rolls have cute names and are pretty delicious! They even have an "Amy Roll" and I've tried it and Amy is delish ;)

Photo Inspiration: Tea Parties


"Everything's a copy of a copy of a copy."

Like every young girl throughout history, I used to love to play with dolls, dress up, and have a little tea party. It was basically the kid's version of brunch and who doesn't like that? So this month, when we were brainstorming ideas, I immediately thought of the modern rendition of tea parties.
One thing I have always enjoyed about fashion is that it allowed designers to have artistic license to do whatever the f*ck they want. Much like fast fashion stores, you were allowed to basically take the ideas of another designer and revamp it into your own thing.
Lots of times, they come out beautifully... like now...
I love how the fashion industry has taken something cute & childish and turned it into something hip & edgy. They have brought out the more eccentric features of a classic and somehow, it turned better.
So here is a timeline (in photos) of the fashion industry's take on tea parties.

The Liebster Award


As we, the residence of the dark parts of the internet, know, the blogosphere can be large and hard to navigate. In this weirdly wonderful world, we also find different ways to connect. One way is the Liebster Award. 

We Have Not Lost Anything Today

Blowing up the internet recently is the death of beloved comedian, Robin Williams. For more than six decades, he has brought happiness, joy, and a little bit of craziness to the world and we thank him for it. From his most recent show The Crazy Ones to his classic movies Good Will Hunting, Williams has been an artist in his own chosen form of medium and for that, he will be heartbreakingly missed and never forgotten. In honor of his memory, we have found 5 quotes from him that have shaped our generation. We know that his memory will live on.

17 Years of Kylie Jenner

"Never love anyone who treats you like you're ordinary."

It's August 10th & also the lovely Kylie Jenner's birthday. As the youngest star in the Kardashian/Jenner clan, it took her a while to sprout her own wings and fly. While a lot of people have been giving sh*t for her style transformation, I praise her for it. I love how Kylie Jenner has stepped out of the shadows of her older sisters and has really developed her own style & fashion. From her electric blue lob to her grunge rocker look, Kylie is our style spotlight. In celebration of her rad 17th Birthday (woooo!!), we have chosen 17 outfits from all occasions that we just can't help but gawk over.

Edge Up Your Tea Party

Whether it's brunch of afternoon tea, I love the idea of having a meal between meals. Traditionally, girls are seen in long flowy skirts and cute, albeit overused, patterns and frills. Instead of taking the orthodox route, we've decided to edge things up with some bold colors and killer accessories. 

No More Ties

For all of you who aren't taiwanese (so most of you), August 8th sounds like dad in mandarin and surprise surprise, that's when we celebrate our father's day. In celebration of the most amazing guy on earth, or at least in my opinion, I have compiled a list of presents that are going to knock the socks off the old pops (& at least no more ties)!
