your blouse from Agryle Centre (very cool place) is so cute. I would love to see a closeup for the sweet details but from what I can seen so far, I'm liking it!

I'll take a detail shot the next time I wear it :) It's funny, this blouse I overpaid for (I later found it for half it's price in Sham Shui Po and Granville Road in Tsim Sha Tsui) always gets so many comments. The strangest was the middle-aged male parking lot attendent who kept complimenting it while my grandpa was standing next to me.

How pretty! The dress and blouse work so perfectly with the bright yellow tights. The shot is also lovely and dramatic with the long curtains and light from behind. Really just stunning.

I love the whole looking-out-the-window pose. The long curtains and light add a very serene effect. It's amazing. You take good pictures.

Lovely! The blouse is gorgeous, very feminine, and great idea to think of teaming up with the yellow tights, sets the outfit off so stylishly. I also very much like the knitted long sleeveless pullover below. PS. You've been blogged :)

AHH! I HAVE TIGHTS LIKE THAT!

it looks gorgeous!

can i ask- what constitutes something being a jumper in america? cause, in england it's just sweatshirts...and that would be called a dress.
it's puzzled me.

and, yes. Tyra of the river Banks would not be a happy rat.

Thanks! I felt the last attempt with this dress lacked colour so I dug out a bright pair of tights this time. PS. I will go check it out!

I love these tights! I have them in black and brown as well. I wish H&M still made them because they're soft & thick & perfect for winter.

A jumper in North America is what you would call a pinafore dress.

I used to be confused about the British use of the term jumper :)

thanks, lady! It's actually not mustard, but slightly greenish -- very similar to the background colour of this blog.
