Taking the opportunity of this Year of the Dragon, widely believed to be the most auspicious year in the Chinese zodiac cycle which comes only once every 12 years, luxury brands have been coming in droves to launch their Year of the Dragon special edition products to boost business (remember my previous post on my Taiwan-born, New York-based designer friend, Jade Chiu’s 3Dragons™ collection?). Being a fashion forward Swiss watch brand which has long been associated with youth, pioneering style, premium quality and affordable luxury, Swatch, without exception, has joined the crowd to grab a slice of the cake by launching its unique and exclusive limited edition “Year of the Dragon” collection completely reflecting the brand’s youthful and modern personality combined with the iconic features of traditional Chinese culture, which surely cannot be found elsewhere. By now you should know what to add to your list of must-have fashion accessories if you are looking to create an individualistic style statement.

The “Year of the Dragon” watch features a fierce yet revered Chinese dragon flying through misty clouds high above the raging sea, which is a popular scene in Chinese scroll paintings. The blue and white color palettes inspired by Chinese blue and white porcelain perfectly enhance the oriental and exotic style.

Each limited edition Dragon watch comes attractively packaged in a deluxe gift box with a cut-out dragon design.

Get this exceptional limited edition “Year of the Dragon” watch here in Swatch online store for your friends and family and wish them exuberantly joy all year long full of luck, pride and oriental glitz and glamor.

Let’s Talk About Love: Tif & Tiffy Valentine’s Day DIY Blogger Event Celebrates the Spirit of True Love

March 24, 2012 in Accessories, Autumn/Winter, Bloggers, Brands, DIY, Fashion, Fashion Events, Knits & Furs, Seasons, Slideshow, Tif & Tiffy

I found this quote widely shared on Facebook around Valentine’s Day which inspires us to reconsider the meaning of Valentine’s Day:

Valentine’s Day is not just for couples,

it’s about love to share;

so think about the people you love,

and let them know you care.

On this year’s Valentine’s Day, I spent the sweetest moment ever with another 29 bloggers and friends invited to Tif & Tiffy Valentine’s Day DIY Workshop where we used our creativity and aesthetic sense to DIY with love a winter accessory chosen for our beloved friends and families (or ourselves). Launched in 2007, Tif & Tiffy is a local brand specializing in high quality knits and furs, first starting with the European retail market and now expanding its business back home in Hong Kong and China.
