Upon my arrival at Monki SS12 press day my jaw dropped to the ground, dripping with nose bleed and waving a stained white handkerchief in silly despair, I surrender! I so want to steal all the Monki samples and mascots under my arms (including the hangers) and discreetly leave the building.  The SS12 collection is ferociously cute, comes in 4 themes – California Dancing, Nautical But Nice, Step Into The Jungle and Suprematist Move…my favourite.  I was very fortunate to meet the Monki Concept Manager Yvonne Da Silva (a fellow Swede and Chinese herself), so lovely in fact our casual conversation lasted…well, it could last a lifetime.  I’m very looking forward to their first stand alone store opening on Carnaby Street, London on February!  Can’t wait to splurge, woohoo!

Yep, more pictures of the sea again (Tai Mei Tuk and Sam Mun Tsai) are you envious or just feeling sea sick?  I don’t want to swear here I’m truly loving it out here!

Slowly I’m adjusting to the hectic life in Hong Kong, attending press days/events and work meetings, networking, I have gained new found friendship with bloggers and media peeps alike, the PRs are seriously amazing here.  I’ll be back to my home turf in 2 weeks and Marmite on buttered toast will the first thing I must do when I arrive.

My outfit: Diamond patterned knitted sweater – courtesy of BENETTON, Men’s check flannel shirt and beige trousers – both from UNIQLO, Sunglasses – BURBERRY, Stripey socks – M&S, Purple sneakers – SUPERGA @ MY WARDROBE.  Thanks KimBapMan for the outfit photos.
