Chinese Cheongsam

 





The above are the snapshots of Ceongsam dress which I've bought for myself from Guangzhou. All girls in my family including sisters, sister-in-law and my mother has got one dress for each of them as souvenir. So, that's more or less of what I've bought ^_^ Look at its embroidery, it's gorgeous isn't it?

This purple dress is the alteration job I've got yesterday and it's done. It's from my old classmate's mom. She asked me to trim the initial bottom part off and turn it into just a top. So, this is the end product.

We went to Guangzhou two weeks ago, accompanying hubby Jim to fulfill an installation of system there. Both kids were following as well for a stretch of nine days completes with their first aeroplane flight. The weather there was about 23 degreee celcius, unlike ours here is 32 degree celcius which you would feel as it is 38! Look at those greens, it's beautiful. I show my friend those pictures of petty green sellers, they are asking if I want to be a vegetables seller... LOL... I'm more interested in eating them, I say ^_^... The vegetables that I planted in 38 degree-celcius-like weather wouldn't be this big, juicy, fabulous and full of varieties. Only a certain species would grow.
We do shop, I'll show you the shirt top which I had bought in the next post ; )
