I have just discovered your blog! We have a trip to Hong Kong, London & France planned next year so I shall be reading closely for fabulous places to shop!

I'm enjoying reading of your trip! I'm one of those read-fashion-sites-but-never-comment types, but your blog really is interesting. I think your obsession with black and white isn't a bad thing; it's cute and reminds me of myself (though with different things).

You are clearly the most stylish woman in HK at the moment. Enjoy your further travels dear.

Yep - parasols are totally normal there, although it's all hooked into some dodgy cultural "paler skin is classier" stuff. You just look pretty though!

I love seeing your pictures, they make me feel like I'm on holiday. :) Hong Kong looks absolutely stunning. And I love the shot of you with a parasol, very colonial Raj. :D

Lovely! How nice that parasols are the norm. And I love those shoes in the post below!

I love your parasole, I have been searching high and low for the perfect one :) You look beautiful

I noted that the light and colors are extraordinary. You've captured them very well.

Lovely pictures! Isn't it funny that in a different culture, it's fashionable to be pale-skinned. (in S.E. Asia they sell skin-whitening lotion instead of fake tan!)

Your photos of Hong Kong are beautiful! I have a parasol similar to yours and am looking forward to digging it out again. It would be nice to use it in a place where one didn't get so many weird looks though!

These photos are amazing! I think you've really captured the beauty of Hong Kong in your pictures :)

And you look fabulous as per usual!

Does this mean you get to stock up on parasols whilst you are there? Lovely photos thanks for sharing.

Love your outfit, that top looks perfect with the skinny jeans and flats. The parasol and bangles just set it all off perfectly. When I was in Hong Kong I looked like a melting mess in the heat but you look cool and oh so chic. : )

Your photos are beautiful! I love the umbrella and the top! I bet you bought some fantastic things :)

I'm back and back online, and so happy to see your fabulous photos. If you are having half as much fun as I did (which it looks like you are) Hurray! And yay for parasols. I carried one everywhere with me too, which in Japan was cool, but Texans did not understand what the hell I was doing with an umbrella on a sunny day. Still, we'll both be chic and wrinkle free.

I love the parasol, yay for beautiful white skin! Hong Kong looks amazing, so colourful and ornate.

the colours look fantastic!
mm i find back in Melbs the asian ladies carry around parasols...mother dear says asians are really into protecting their pale skin.
good onya for protecting yours!

fantastic you!

So glad you are having such a fab time!
Your pictures are exquisite and I adore that you're carrying a parasol...I have one very similar that I wanted to take to Fiji but alas, I couldn't fit it in my case.

Love the loot you've scored so far. Keep having fun xxx

I think I know that street!

Amazing pictures. You look serene and beautiful!
