Style IT on Chinese New Year!

Posted by Candice K at 09:02

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!





1st day 
Forever 21 : dress
Vincci: wedges
Lovisa: Choker


Although its kinda a tradition to wear "cheongsam" ( for those who wonders what those button up and tight fitting chinese dress are called) on the very first day of Chinese New Year, I've decided to break that and wear something else. I guess I'm not  fully traditional myself.








Bitxh takes the red carpet  2nd day
Instagram bearcloset: Skater skirt and top

 Although I didn't wear Cheongsam, I've tried to wear  bright colored outfits and I pretty much wore RED significantly on the first two days. Its a belief  of the Chinese culture that black should not be worn on celebrations as it symbolizes death. I pretty much avoided wearing black but the accessories were an exceptional.

3rd day 
dress: cotton on
heels: nichii











































I chose a navy blue dress instead on the third day as I have worn all of my red outfits and I'm running out of red outfits. My analogy would be as long as its not black then it would be perfectly fine.
It was not implemented in the Chinese Culture that we would have to wear RED for the entire week of our celebration.

Pretty much that's about it , Happy Chinese New Year everyone and have a great time collecting all of the red packets. Cuz its money on all of our minds haha just kidding, Chinese isn't just about money but an opportunity to gather all of our family members together and reunite.
