just breathe

written by ChristingC

Just a few weeks and it feels like the world has flipped but in the very best way. The boy and I are shifting into our new roles a little more each day and I can see the shape our lives will soon take. Big changes make you look at your life through new eyes, reevaluating relationships, and weeding out the good from bad. Surrounding myself with positivity and strength so we can grow into a healthier, balanced existence. Now more than ever I feel adverse to negativity and pressure, and there is nothing more optimistic than watching something you created grow, thrive, and bond in the most natural way. Our days are what we make it and we can choose to push, mold, and wring every last minute hoping to manipulate it into what we think we may want or we can just learn to stop, breathe and enjoy.

Forever 21 Macau

written by ChristingC

I was super excited back when Forever 21 opened its doors in HK and was lucky enough to collaborate with them on a fun blogger project, so when I heard they were launching their 2nd store in Macau we couldn’t resist hopping on a ferry to check out the grand opening. The new store boasts just under 20,000 sq ft over several floors right on the front steps of the beautiful Ruins of St Paul. We’ve always loved exploring that area of Macau with it’s numerous local eats, cute shops, and unique architecture. After sipping champagne to celebrate F21’s grand opening we spent the night hanging out at our 5* hotel, enjoying cocktails while admiring the view, and finishing up with a room service binge. A much needed mini break for the boy and I. Make sure to check out the new store on your next visit.

some kind of new

written by ChristingC

My moods have been up and down almost as much as our bipolar weather. Busy schedules and being torn between wanting to spend all my time at home with our little girl makes it impossible to keep up my semi existent social life. Contemplating holidays lately and wondering if a quickie girl’s trip just before our one month in Europe is a good idea. A new Nespresso Inissia machine means I’m a little more fuelled than usual, and can find energy in the peaceful hours of the night when the rest of our home is snoozing to have some much needed “me” time. Trying my best to rebuild my wardrobe into something that makes sense again, and working towards that pre-baby body at a not too slow pace. Another month and most of my standard goals should have been met. I’m optimistic.

you’re my perfect imperfection

New goals. Start posting regularly again. Life is getting in the way of itself. I’m pretty sure HK eats up hours in a day like no other city and bedtime rolls around as quickly as the morning arrived. I can’t help but be obsessed with the fast paced mood with restaurant openings happening every second day, parties littering every evening and holidays high on most people’s priorities. It’s definitely the coolest place to be a Mummy, where it’s possible to keep up with the masses while spending most of your day with the little one. The boy and I take advantage of rainy Saturdays and while the entire city goes out to play we indulge in family time and movie night. It’s often teamed with insane relief and contentment which builds further excitement for our usual boozy Sunday brunch. Happiness can often be so easily achieved when you are surrounded by all you need.

passing time

written by ChristingC

Currently lounging in our now seemingly minuscule bed while my two loves sleep soundly by my side. I’m slightly perplexed by how a tiny baby can make so much space disappear, but the boy and I are indulging her in our space before we attempt to coax her into preferring a bed of her own. This week whizzed by in a blur with plenty to celebrate and a busy schedule to keep us on our toes. Counting time in hours and trying to savour all of them despite each day passing far too quickly. The boy celebrated a birthday, which we decided to keep low key with a much needed date night. Look forward to a quiet Monday and family time on the couch before the parties, dinners, and meetings of the week commence.

blazing heat

written by ChristingC

Maje skirt, Zara boots, Club Monaco bag, and C. by Christing C. tank and blazer.

The sun is shining it’s insanely welcome light on this long weekend. We plan on basking in the heat in hopes of catching just enough color, taking the little one out for fresh air, mingling with the crowds and fitting in a few shopping splurges. I’m always game for an upbeat mood, especially when the rest of the city is joining in. Hoping I have a tropical tan by the time Tuesday rolls around.

Lately

written by ChristingC

Lately…it’s been all about fitting everything possible into twenty-four hours and attempting to enjoy each minute, even if we are surviving on three hours of sleep. Luckily I’m a professional napper and find relaxing part of my DNA so even a little snooze with the bebe on my chest turns into smiles. Getting out and catching up with the real world has played a big part in keeping our sanity. The boy and I have managed to event hop, savour afternoon happy hour drinks, and chat endlessly about nothing with our favourite HK friends without disrupting night feeds or the majority of our precious hours with the little girl. Balance has settled in at an easy pace I hadn’t expected. Lets hope it keeps flowing in this favourable direction.

nothing more cruel than only nine lives

written by ChristingC

All Saints Shirt, C. by Christing C. Capri Dress, Club Monaco leopard print bag, Asos boots, ManiaMania necklace.

After a busy week, catch ups with a few of my favourites, and general perusing around town I’m feeling a significant shift back to my former self. My bursting wardrobe is calling my name, an overfull inbox may be looking more interesting by day, and the promise of sunshine in the near future has me trying on my bikini already. Summer is just around the corner and the boy and I have mapped out a busy few months full of holidays, family nights in, extravagant date nights, and even a birthday celebration.

steady beat

written by ChristingC

Wearing C. by Christing C.

Three weeks have flown by in a blink, as we settle into a new routine and life. I’m finding it surprising that something so unfamiliar and new can feel as if we’ve been doing it all along. We have settled more or less seamlessly with few bumps and have even managed to integrate back into our old lives while merging it with the new. As this rhythm slows to a steady beat, I’m finding my way back to parts of the old me and my way back here to share with all of you.

sunkissed cravings

written by ChristingC

Montmartre Cardigan, Cambridge Cropped Shirt, St Germain Short, Portobello Dress, Ibiza Dress, Brooklyn Overall, Capri Top.

Some of our C. by Christing C. Spring favourites.

The weather is heating up and I’m definitely craving flimsy silk pieces, ridiculously tan legs, and sunkissed locks while floating around the city. So many festival, lunch date, beach vacation ready pieces for the next few months. I know what I’m packing for our month in Europe this summer.
