French Connection :: Pink Beret + Sneakers

Saturday, March 25, 2017 Simone - Your Style Architect 1 Comments


Bonjour everyone !!

I am presuming this cold front would be lasting for just about another week or so and then finally we can feel the nice Spring, sun-shiny weather here in Hong Kong. So can I be so bold to say - this would probably be the last of thicker winter clothing post for now.


If you haven't guessed yet - grey and white stripes seems to be another fav combination for me besides Olive, Burgundy and Pink & Grey outfits.




Found this cute pink beret on sale @ H&M and found it fun to trend it with sneakers which I hardly style in my blog posts - though often running around in them all week.


I intentionally tilted the leather pouch to the side a little so you can see the beauty of this Fendi Dotcom bag with it's leather weaving on the front of the bag. This time I styled this look with the pouch out at the front instead of tucked away in the bag. A roomy bag to take on trips where lots can be carried in it and yet for evenings, I can remove the leather pouch as a clutch bag for the evenings.




Feeling pretty Parisian in this outfit, I sit and watch the world go by in my light pink beret.


As I gaze through the window to the world, I wonder what is in store for me.... I feel my life is changing and with news to tell shortly - I will keep you in suspense for now.


Let's run away together in these funky sneakers and go where the wind will take us.... Comme la vie l'aurait!!

Stop at Red :: Red Coat + Velvet Sweatshirt

Sunday, March 19, 2017 Simone - Your Style Architect 1 Comments



Hi everyone,

Gloomy skies all week and so I figured a little colour would help to add some cheer to my grey, dull week.


This beautiful red coat from Fashionmia was the right colour to bring my moods up and pairing it with this gorgeous velvet crush sweatshirt in aqua blue was simply the right combination. Loving how the texture played against each other.







The colour combination of the strap on this classic Gucci bag was the inspiration for me putting this outfit colour combo together.







Wishing you guys a splendid week ahead!

White & Sultry :: Midi Stripe Dress + Long Woollen Coat

Saturday, March 11, 2017 Simone - Your Style Architect 12 Comments



Happy weekend everyone!

Another great find during a sale. Found this midi ribbed spaghetti strap dress which was suppose to be an addition to my summer outfits waiting for the sun to shine to get pulled out of the closet. But I could wait no longer. So styled this for the first time in a very different setting.


Feeling a little sultry with this look ( for some funny reason), and wanting to create a different feel to my pictures, I went for a pretty monochromatic colour theme to this post and playing with poses I had never done before.

Wedding Season :: Bridesmaid and Occasion Dresses( featuring Aislestyle UK)

Saturday, March 04, 2017 Simone - Your Style Architect 6 Comments


Charming A Line Long Sleeve Beading Floor Length Chiffon Prom Dress
Hi everyone,

A little different treat of a post this weekend.

Whilst we continue to enjoy the Awards season ( the recent Oscars / Academy Awards with it's ups and downs) and closely monitoring the beautiful dresses and accessories of the celebrities as they walk down the red carpet - this has inspired me to work with Aislestyle.co.uk to bring you their collection of beautiful bridesmaid dresses which could easily double up as cocktail or prom dresses and/or special occasion dresses.

For me, a bridesmaid dress needs to be as elegant as the wedding dress but yet not overpower it that it steals the limelight from the bride. Here are some long bridesmaid dresses I personally love. Lace Bridesmaid Dresses are also very common choices too and although I have highlighted the dresses below in paler colours, they are also available in a variety of colours for the best match to your occasion :

Classical Blush Strapless Sweetheart Pleated Tulle Bridesmaid dress
Muted Mint Scoop Neck Floral Lace Bodice Sleeveless A-Line Long Chiffon Bridesmaid Dress
Halter High Neck Sleeveless Beaded Embellished Column Long Chiffon Bridesmaid Dress

V Neck Lace Sheath Sleeveless Zipper Bridesmaid Dress

To be different and for those in more tropical climates, short bridesmaid dresses are also perfect choices for recycling into cocktail dresses for another occasion.

A Line Zipper Chiffon Natural Short Bridesmaid Dress

A Line Sleeveless Taffeta Shoulder Straps Short Bridesmaid Dresses
High Neck A-Line Knee Length Zipper Sleeveless Bridesmaid Dress
Whilst some of us would either be planning for a wedding in 2017, I am sure many of you would be looking at wedding party dresses for those invitations you will be receiving this year. So, here are some of my favourites choices :

Charming A Line Sweetheart Ruching Floor Length Tulle Cocktail Dresses

Red A line Bateau Long Sleeve Beading Lace Long Prom Dress

Sleeveless one shoulder white and black long satin prom dress

With 50% off on many of their items and international shipping available, why not grab your favourite piece for a future occasion at such a great deal!

Love,
Simone xoxo
