It made me smile hearing you are a L in HK. I'm in China at the moment and having to squeeze into XL or XXLs in the few places they are available here. Not built for Westerners thats for sure!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-back-3#post-101733 Sun, 18 Oct 2009 14:20:45 +0000 shana 101733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome back Shiny!

I'm waiting anxiously for your travel post. I so enjoyed Paris and Iceland posts. My father-in-law's family is from Hong Kong and I spent two months there in college. All of it together with even the suggestion of stories from your trip makes me want to head back - soon! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-back-3#post-101662 Sat, 17 Oct 2009 22:38:03 +0000 Anonymous 101662@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay, Shiny!

But at least everything fits better vertically, right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-back-3#post-101558 Sat, 17 Oct 2009 03:10:30 +0000 marianna 101558@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome back!

Welcome back. </p> <p>I hope we were able to take some HK street style photos. I love that tunics and leggings were everywhere as I'm STILL working on getting that look down. Anyway, hope you can catch up on some needed sleep. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-back-3#post-101554 Sat, 17 Oct 2009 03:03:32 +0000 greenglove 101554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome back, cannot wait for all the pictures. You returned to cold here in Boston!!<br /> Dying to hear all about your travel wear and adventures!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-back-3#post-101548 Sat, 17 Oct 2009 02:27:07 +0000 anne 101548@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome back! I've been missing you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-back-3#post-101543 Sat, 17 Oct 2009 01:59:27 +0000 shiny 101543@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya, I don't mean to be a tease! But...more tomorrow. :-)</p> <p>As for petite shopping heaven, I'm apparently an XL petite there.... I have more curves than the average Asian. Not a surprise to me at all... I'm just saying. :-)</p> <p>For example, I bought cheongsam dresses at the Ladies' Market for my girls (both under 5'3") for xmas presents. After much consult (you can't try them on in the market), I bought a L and an XL. Once I got back to the hotel, I tried both on. The L fit me everywhere but the chest, which I couldn't button - however, I am sure it will fit my DD16 who's narrow on top. Whereas the XL fit me perfectly, which means it will fit my DD15, who's built like me, perfectly. It fit so perfectly, in fact, I went back the next day and bought one for myself! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-back-3#post-101541 Sat, 17 Oct 2009 01:55:25 +0000 Tanya 101541@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome back Shiny! I am looking forward to hearing about your trip and your suit experience. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-back-3#post-101532 Sat, 17 Oct 2009 01:27:43 +0000 Ana 101532@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! I'm so excited you're back Shiny, and I can't wait to hear about the suit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-back-3#post-101527 Sat, 17 Oct 2009 01:23:33 +0000 Maya 101527@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome home Shiny! Way to tease us about the custom suit with no pics...</p> <p>It's too bad you couldn't do more shopping because I imagine Hong Kong must be heaven for petites. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-back-3#post-101524 Sat, 17 Oct 2009 01:20:12 +0000 shiny 101524@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, you absolutely have HK style! I couldn't help but smile because I saw your fashion principles in practice all over the place. </p> <p>Laura, no photos of the bespoke suit yet... the reason why is part of the story! But you can be sure I'll take photos when I can.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-back-3#post-101517 Sat, 17 Oct 2009 01:10:05 +0000 medusa 101517@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shiny!!!! I'm SOOOOO excited to hear about your custom suit. It sounds so fun and getting a custom suit has been a dream of mine for years. Photos, please! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-back-3#post-101511 Sat, 17 Oct 2009 00:54:38 +0000 taylor 101511@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad you are home safe...dying to see the suit:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-back-3#post-101509 Sat, 17 Oct 2009 00:48:35 +0000 Laura 101509@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome back! Can't wait to hear all about the bespoke suit experience. Do you have photos to share? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-back-3#post-101508 Sat, 17 Oct 2009 00:47:19 +0000 Angie 101508@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome back, Jennifer! Glad you had a fabulous time with hubby! Get over the jet lag and lets hear ALL about it. I hope you had killer food too. </p> <p>(I’m chuffed to be perceived as having HK style :0)) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-back-3#post-101505 Sat, 17 Oct 2009 00:40:37 +0000 shiny 101505@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>... from Hong Kong. Trying to stay up another hour or two, in an attempt to combat jetlag. Will catch up on YLF and post more details tomorrow after I get some sleep, but for now will say this:</p> <p>1. The Inc Ponte Knit pants are my new "go-to" traveling pants. They performed beautifully on the trip there - and back (essentially it took us 24 hours travel time each way). Warm and comfy as sweats, yet did not bag out at all! I will be duplicating for sure. </p> <p>2. I did get a bespoke suit made!! More details tomorrow. (warning: it will be a long post!) </p> <p>3. I can see exactly where Angie gets her style. </p> <p>4. Leggings and tunics were EVERYWHERE. </p> <p>5. Other than #2, did not buy much else for myself. We did cruise a few malls and picked up xmas gifts (mostly souvenir stuff the girls will love). I did look a little at pearls too - but mostly just got overwhelmed!!</p> <p>We had a wonderful time. Now I need to get my YLF dose and see what you've been up to.... </p>
