Shopping For The Year Of The Sheep

Monday, January 19, 2015




It is the year of the sheep/goat/ram (I'll go with sheep, just cause sheeps are über cute!) in the Chinese zodiac this 2015 – and already I have begun to see the sheep being made into fashion icons. It's really cool how the world is slowly evolving to include Chinese beliefs and culture into beautiful things – seeing as how China is Asia's highest retail consumer, anything beautiful with sheep is bound to sell like lemonade on a hot day.

Not that I'm writing about sheeps here, but I've already started my annual CNY shopping because it is happening in a month's time. I saw this gorgeous white and gold bag in H&M the other day and it is so perfect for angpau collecting (a Chinese culture where kids and unmarried adults get money packets from all their relatives – and pickings are very lucrative) that I simply must have it. I don't go by the old Chinese superstition that states white and blacks are taboo colors to use, so I bought this to collect my angpaus.

There were also bag accessories on sale, and I saw this cute little golden sheep, and it is the perfect addition to my little white bag! Matte metallic leather, poofy and subtly shiny, what's not to like?









I also saw these rings that range in various sizes, from midi to full, with cute multi-colored chevron designs on each skinny ring. My kinda bling!

What have you shopped for this CNY? Do share!

    1. Yeah, and so appropriate too for this year! You should, before all the good stuff gets sold out! (it always happens to me when I procrastinate)

  2. The bag is simply beautiful and the sheep über cute, indeed? Is it from H&M as well?
