The One Thousandth

Who would have thought that ShoeGeek and I would be able to put up 1000 posts on this blog? There are definitely days when the two of us wonder why on earth we write Hong Kong Fashion Geek. It could not have been done without you, our loyal readers. Thank you for giving us the encouragement to keep writi...

SHOErotica: Alexander Wang Addison Leather Boots

Ish finally cold enough to boot up. And I am off to sunny Singapore! It's midnight and I haven't finished packing yet so that's all for now, but the burnt orange toe on this reminds me of cliched sunsets and walks on the beach. A perfect amalgamation of warm summer-to-fall nights, and winter practicali...

Twitter Tips: Mama Mia

It's surprisingly hard to find decent Italian food in Hong Kong so this week we ask you for recommendations. Image from Cecconi's in Soho which also has a great lunch set deal and decent pizza. It's about $138 for a two course lunch I believe. This week's Twitter tips question: What's your favourite resto for Italian in HK and tell us your must-order dish #hkfgtwittertips@sweet877 @hkFashionGeek Tuscany by H which is closed :( otherwise Ziti's in Tai Hang. Must order special pizza with an egg...

Revel in Bevel Jewelry

You know that line in American Beauty where that tortured emo guy who hooks up with Thora Birch is all like... "sometimes there's so much beauty in the world that it HURTS" and then Sam Mendes cuts to this video of a plastic bag flying around like it's meant to be some sort of visual cue to make us viewers realize, wow, the world IS beautiful, that plastic bag IS beautiful, in fact, we are ALL beautiful, hugsies! That was such a crock. But I still loved the movie. Anyway, what Mendes should have...

Geek Spy: Earphone Speaker Keychain

I was just thinking to myself that I hadn't found a good Geek Spy in a while when @randomraj shows me this little gem. Are you always losing your keys? This keychain will make it rather hard for you to lose your keys seeing as it's attached to a giant earphone speaker.. On to the details as described by the website:The Earphone Speaker Keychain is a great little when-the-mood-strikes-you speaker for your music player of choice. It fits into any standard 1/8" headphone jack, and sounds quite crisp...

Charmed

It wasn't too long ago that Burberry launched its beauty line, and although I can't speak for the quality of their products, if we're going by packaging, the brand has definitely won me over. And it's 2010, who cares about quality when there's packaging to ooh and aah over? I know girls who go nuts over the cute Dior duo-use makeup charms (is it a necklace? a keychain? a lip gloss? an eyeshadow? an intergalactic robot sent to save us from Voldemort?), and those same girls will no doubt go gaga for...

Can of Worms

Remember that gigantic gummy bear with the hysterical infomercial we wrote about previously? Well as a follow up to that, Vat19, the masterminds behind the venture has come up with a 3 pound, 26 inch long gummy worm. At 128 times the size of a regular gummy worm, it packs 4,000 calories (so half a worm is more than enough for your day’s intake!) and comes in five flavour combinations like orange and lemon or cherry and blue raspberry. What can you do with such a large gummy worm? Apparently, you...

Warehouse Sale: D-mop

I should have put this up earlier. Sorry. But it goes until Wednesday, for anyone who wants to check it out. I went over the weekend. Lots of tees, some Matthew Williamson brights, more See by Chloe than you've ever seen... Preen if you can afford it. Otherwise, mostly Japanese-influenced casual wear.I want to sh...

Line Up, Brush Up

Goodbye panda eyes! After messing around with smudgy pencil eyeliner for years, I've finally made the switch to gel. Never really liked liquid, I found it hard to manipulate and always ended up blinking and ending up with double-lines on the lid. Two lines good, four lines baaaad. My gel eyeliner of choice is the one that every gal and her momma swear by: Bobbi Brown's long-wear gel eyeliner. And now I realize how stupid I was to ever muck about with pencil. To apply the liner, I use MAC's 212 flat...

H&M x Lanvin: Coming Up Roses

A couple of days ago, I tweeted a link to the first look at Lanvin and H&M's highly anticipated collection. Truth be told, I have never been inspired to line up for any of the H&M collabs. Long lines scare me. Scary fashion diehards scare me. And spending endless hours in a line, only to find out nothing fits me or looks good on me, scares me the most, because I know my own psyche and I know I'll feel obligated to buy something just because I spent so much time in line. Opportunity cost,...

Once You Go Black

Sometimes, all you need is an all-black get-up and a killer haircut. Selma Blair and Ginnifer Goodwin sporting haircuts I really want and don't dare to get, and shoes that I need, like, now.Image: Style....

Pac Rat

I have this habit of buying notebooks thinking that I will eventually write in them. And I do go through quite a lot being a former journo and one of those girls who still enjoy writing in journals. However, I didn’t realize how MANY notebooks I have until I just went through the hassle of packing up my belongings to move to a new apartment. I literally have about 30 to 40 quality notebooks just hanging around in my apartment waiting for me to write. Of course, the point of this entry is not to...

Second Skins

Even though I was pretty excited about the opening of Rue Madame in Lee Gardens Two earlier this year, I haven't quite gotten the chance to really appreciate the store, because I'm a lazy piece of ass who never walks to that area of Causeway Bay. Now that the shop is opening its second outpost at IFC on November 1, however, they might be able to earn a few of my hard-earned dollars... especially after I spotted this ridiculous Maje leather dress on Kate Moss in French Vogue. Hello la hotness. Regardless...

Gold Rush

Remember that US$80,000 platinum Nissan Fairlady Z432 model that was a one off and not for sale? Apparently there is a market for extremely expensive models of cars that are made of gold, silver or platinum. Japanese artist Nori Miyata has launched the Ultima Jewelery line whereby luxury cars and yachts are replicated in miniature scale. The Lamborghini shown above is made of 18k gold and is 1/24 in scale. No idea how much this will set you back though as price is on request. More details he...

I.T Factor

Scored for next to nothing (aka $460 down from $2299) at the I.T warehouse in Ap Lei Chau. They're by YIN.Things I passed up: Miu Miu daisy clogs from Space at South Horizon for $2300, Giuseppe x Balmain sandals for $2000 and Ann Demeulemeester wedges for $2300 at I.T, Charlotte Olympia pumps for $2300 at Joyce warehouse... I told you, I am ultimate shopping FAIL. Somebody who's a size 38 go get those deals I missed. And somebody find me something to buy, I feel like a vampire with no blood, or...

Trunk Show

You may already know about the Cambridge Satchel Company's retro-fab satchels and "batchels" (satchels with additional handle). In lieu of my coveted PS1, I'm thinking I might pick one of these up, it has all the double-strapped seduction of the former but without the ridonkulous price tag and lack of availability. Also waiting for Gizzy & Nacho to get their Su-Shi bags in, which will be in about a month's time, to get that honey brown double-buckle bag. My life is all about double buckles these...
