In the chinese calendar, we just entered the coldest season of the year. However, in the fancy fashion world, dreamers are all entered the spring romance. Christian Dior's new ad campaign, the cosmetic from Dior Chérie Bow and Drew Barrymore's new line ' Flower' are all very classically sweet and happy for the spring. Mulberry also creates the fancy sea fairy with the soft colour breeze in the newest campaign. Or if these images can not take you out from the freezing winter, try walk into any Uniqlo's shop, it will makes you want to have a picnic in a park right away!


剛剛才過了節氣中的大寒, 但永遠走在潮流前線的時尚界已經開始吹起了春天的柔軟微風了。Christian Dior 的最新廣告大片還有 Dior Chérie Bow 跟Drew Barrymore的最新彩妝系列都像是活潑俏麗的小女孩期盼著春天的到來~Mulberry這季的廣告大片更像是海洋的幻彩世界裡的仙子, 同時也帶有一樣水彩般的柔和色調。如果這些圖片沒辦法讓你們身歷其境的話, 那請大家有空“移駕”(請原諒我甄環傳看太多哈)到Uniqlo的店面裡, 看看你們會不會像我一樣想直接在裡面野餐了起來~(旋轉)

where。|| VVG THINKING, Taipei ||

Untitled-2



Recently, I am pretty much into those CONCEPT stores, such as Opening Ceremony and Collette...etc. It not only the products they selling in the store, but the atmosphere it creates and along with the stories behind it. VVG THINKING is in a pretty hit area called "HUASHAN creative park" in Taipei. In the second floor of the store, all the books, ceramics, toys and clothes are there waiting for you to pick up and take a look. if you want to sit down and enjoy yourself in the vintage space, there is a cafe on the first floor for you. When you are on the stair case, it's hardly to miss a giant metallic wings swinging on top of you, which for me is whispering....GO ON AND OPEN YOUR WINGS TO DREAM.  That's how I like to explode new shop/space, so I get to heard the little whispering. (from the shop or inside of me?!)


PS. When I was in the park with my mom in that afternoon, she kept rushing me to go home so she can prep for dinner, but once she step in the shop, its all peaceful and quite and made her exploring and had tea with me in the end! See how the magic  works right?



這幾年我很迷那種“概念買手店” 就像美國的Opening Ceremony 還有法國的Collette這種的。這種店吸引我的不僅僅是它賣的獨特又有意思的產品, 還有整個店裡散發出的氛圍跟所有東西背後的含義與故事。VVG THINKING (中國大陸的朋友請看這裡就是我在台北華山文化園區發現的另一個新天地。在二樓可以看到從世界各地蒐集來的書, 陶瓷. 玩具, 日用品等等雜貨供人翻閱拿起來把玩觀賞; 如果你想悠閒的待在這個空間裡, 一樓還有提供咖啡廳讓你好好沈浸於其中。在走上樓的樓梯頂端很難不看見一個巨大的機器翅膀揮舞著, 看著它感覺像有個聲音小小聲的說:展翅夢想吧。(不知道是我太習慣自言自語還是真的每次去到喜歡的空間/ 店鋪都可以聽見這種小聲的呢喃, 哈哈)


備註:那天世帶著我媽去散步的, 在園區內她一直催我說他要趕回家煮晚餐, 但當我們踏進這家店後她居然也安安靜靜慢慢悠悠的逛了起來, 後來還答應跟我喝杯茶再回家。透鍋這個插曲更加堅定了空間所帶來的魔力和魅力了~

#11 the happiness project || Keep Calm and 2013 is ON ||

blog 20130112-3

Now we are safely passed 2012, I guess put the " KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON" sign out is better then ever. I am so observed with this poster, I even bought a calendar that has so many "keep calm and....." for each month. {my favourite one would be NOV---keep calm and put the kettle on ) So I guess I will have my 2013 as the KCaCO year : )


我們終於安全的渡過了2012, 我覺得現在很適合把 " KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON" 的精神拿出來~認識我的人都知道我有多愛這個標語, 我甚至還買了一個2013的日曆讓我可以每個月都有個"keep calm and....."的主題哈哈。(其中我最喜歡的是11月的keep calm and put the kettle on, 保持冷靜泡杯茶吧!)

I like organiser very much, I can not live without it seriously. Since I start working, I need two organiser, one for work one for everyday life. (read here for my moleskins happiness)   This year, I found this incredible organiser from AFTERNOON TEA, A5 size, with so many handy goodies. Like name card sleeves and additional notebook that I can use for meeting.


再來就是每年都不能少的行事曆, 我真的沒辦法沒有它在我身邊。而且自從工作後我就堅持要有兩個, 一個工作專用, 一個私人專用的moleskins。(衍生閱讀以前寫過的moleskins happiness project) 今年工作專用的我選了AFTERNOON TEA的, A5的尺寸加上後面附上的名片透明小袋還有活動筆記本, 整個就是功能強大的工作好幫手!

2012 has been a big achievement for my life: 1. got a job in Shanghai 2. Start Com'on Eileen's new website 3. Having Com'on Eileen's facebook page....etc that fulfilled my life and makes it more exciting than ever. The other day when I was in my office collecting beautiful images for new season's design, I realise what can be more satisfied when you can do the job that is exactly what you have dream of and enjoying in it? I guess all the hard work I have done to prove my profession have pulled off and the supports I've got from my family also encouraged me a lot. So in 2013 is more about CARRY ON and maybe get myself a nice romance haha (shy)


2012對我來說是個很重要的里程碑。1. 找了一份定居上海的工作 2. 開始了Com'on Eileen的新網站 3. 有了Com'on Eileen的專屬臉書粉絲頁面....等等一些讓我的生活好忙碌也好充實。有一天我在辦公室裡蒐集新一季企劃用的圖片, 忽然一股感謝的暖流湧上心頭, 覺得自己好幸福, 可以做自己有興趣的工作謀生, 有多少人可以這麼幸運?我猜之前努力的堅持還有證明自己的專業水平是關鍵, 還有家人的支持和鼓勵是動力來源~所以2013年我更要CARRY ON下去!可能也需要開始給自己找一段浪漫豔遇了哈哈(拍謝)
