Fashionable Asians at the Airport

The airport isn't usually known for spotting great fashion. While us 'regular' people opt for comfort in hoodies and sweatpants, celebs always have to put a little more effort into their looks because they never know who will greet them at the airport. One accessory that is an absolute must for all celebs at the airport: Sunglasses (if it's not being used for going incognito then it can be used for eye protection from the camera flashes!)
This post comes at the perfect time as I head on my very own vacation. And surprisingly, I am not going to Asia (even though I've been wanting to go for yrs!) Let you know where I went when I come back :)

Sammi Cheng posed for the cameras after coming home from her vacation with boyfriend Andy Hui. I loved her tribal print purse and sleek blue blazer!
Cecilia Cheung, poor girl is in the middle of a nasty divorce scandal so I don't blame her for trying to block everyone out with her headphones and sunglasses. The girl still manages to pull a great outfit together though!
Li Bing Bing hopped off a plane looking this fresh, how does she do it?!
Kitty Zhang apparently didn't have a problem getting on the plane with her skirt length, but if she was on an American flight she would've had a problem..

Kelly Chen is so sophisticated
Gianna Jun's got great style even off the red carpet! Loving her look here in a striped blue blazer over a simple white tee
Fan Bing Bing looking frumpy hoping people won't recognize her but if you're wearing sunglasses indoors you are most likely a celeb so in a way it's not the best disguise..
Kim Hye Soo tries to mix casual and dressy as she walks towards airport security. I wonder if they have to take their shoes off in Korea, cause hers look kinda lethal!
Zhang Ziyi was all dressed up and ready for her closeup when she hopped off the plane
Yao Chen Su keeps it casual, the way a jet setter should look!

Girl's Generation/SNSD ladies sure know how to travel in style! Reasons why I'm a huge fan of Korean fashion:
Yuri Tiffany Sunny and Yoona Soo Young
Seo Hyun
Hyo Yeon's casual look with a stripped top and long stretchy skinnies is closest to my travel style. Airplanes are cold so I definitely like to keep my legs covered.
I am in love with Kim Tae Yeon's purple purse! OMG someone find out who it's by! I want!!!


What do you wear when you're jetsetting? Let me know in the comments below!

Fashion at the Shanghai Film Festival

The opening ceremony for the Shanghai Film Festival was met with a bit of rain but lots of glamour. These Asian ladies know how to rock it on the red carpet, even a sopping wet one :P


Fan Bing Bing in Georges Hobeika Couture, there's a reason why I call her the Queen of Asian red carpets! The girl always puts a lot of effort into her red carpet looks and always looks glam and regal.

Angelababy showed off her legs in this drapey dress with a sweetheart neckline and paired it with a metallic clutch and t-strap heels.
Li Bing Bing in Naeem Khan, which I thought was very fitting for her since it has an oriental style to it (well they are in Shanghai afterall) and her new movie is called Snow Flower and the Secret Fan (which I can't wait to watch since I enjoyed the book)

Zhang Zi Lin opted for this teal lace/chiffon paired with silver accessories and shoesZhao Qian Yu went with a color block dress with a sweetheart neckline and a masquerade mask for a hat.
Zhang Jing Chu in Roberto Cavalli, all covered up but still sexy with the way the dress clings to her
Yuan Li in a Chinese prison dress? This is just one horrible design...
Xu Fan in a very age and body appropriate dress all that's missing are some sparkly jewels
Vivian Hsu worked this deep-v dress with the strong shoulder detail fabulously.
Liu Xiao Qing popped a pose in this white satin dress with red branches printed all over. While it may not be the most flattering dress, the print keeps it from being too plain
Wendi Deng Murdoch showed up in this shimmery halter dress, paired with a black clutch and strappy heels
Kathy Chau feel inspired by Shanghai and chose to wear a QiPao inspired red dress with matching red shoes.
Jiang Wen Li kept it simple in a black dress that didn't fail to accentuate her curves.
Gianna Jun could've skipped wearing the long tassle necklace with this deep-v black gown.

Eva Huang in an unflattering red dress, posing with my favorite HK actor Raymond Lam!

Lin Chi Ling looked fab in this burgundy colored gown just wish she had done something with her hair

Zhou Li Bo and his wife is a long white qi pao/cheongsam dress

Zhao Zi Qi was the only lady to show up in pants...with fireworks

Sean Lau and Huang Yi in a ridiculously high maintenance couture gown especially in the rain!
Michelle Ye's style is always about simple elegance and for this event she went with a soft pink v-neck dress with the most random screenprinting I've ever seen on the skirt. Wonder if the designer ran out of ink or just made a mistake..

There's always a Gaga at every red carpet and this time it was Jin Qiao Qiao, she looked like a bedazzled marching band member!

Jiang Yi Yan looked stunning in this simple and elegant bright red gown with a sweetheart neckline, accessorizing with sparkling Gigi Leung (R) and Castmates all showed up in soft creamy hues, a safe and wise choice.

Chie Tanaka looked like a blue balloon in this dress, it gave her no shape whatsoever.Chen Shu and Sarina both went with black and white gowns, while Chen Shu looked fab, Sarina looked like Count Dracula -_-

Fashionable Asians at Cannes Film Festival

OMG so much fashion goodness to share from Cannes. Been collecting and oogling at all the Cannes pics for the past week and I must say, the crown for Most Fashionable Asian at Cannes goes to previously featured Fan Bing Bing! That girl can pull off ANYTHING and look absolutely AMAZING. Most girls would go lesbian for Angelina Jolie, but I'd totally go lezzie for Bing Bing; so we can roll around in her larger than life couture gowns! LOL TMI? ok, let's just get to the pictures then, haha

It must be nice to be friends with an amazing designer like Elie Saab to get offered apleathora of fabulous dresses to every event! Bing Bing did mix it up with two Versace gowns, two Louis Vuitton dresses, Oscar De La Renta and a custom red crane gown by Bo Kewen. Bing Bing proves time and time again that she is the reigning fashion icon of Asia, always choosing the perfect gowns for her body and never over accessorizing to keep the focus on the outfit.


Another gal with a ton of wardrobe changes at Cannes was Tang Wei, there to promote her new film "Wu Xia". Unlike Bing Bing, Tang Wei favored more of the black, white and pink dresses by Valentino, Chanel and Dolce & Gabbana. Of all the designer dresses, I actually preferred the cream halter dress with the grass and butterfly print that she wore to the photoshoot on the yacht; sweet and summery. I don't know why she ruined a nice D&G outfit with fishnet stockings, that was a bad choice =_=


Li Bing Bing was at Cannes to promote "Snow Flower and the Secret Fan" and this girl knows how to wow 'em. The large tulle gown was Georges Chakra Couture, and while I wasn't a fan of the poof, I was really interested in the pattern on the bustier.

Korean actress Sun Mi Song looked chic in a multi layered metallic silver dress for her photocall; I wasn't a fan of her dress for the premiere though, she kind of cheapened the look of it with the sheer coverup. Gong Li is such a diva and I love that her outfit choices are representative of her attitude. She looked fierce in her black Roberto Cavalli dress with an embellished bustier.

Gianna Jun Ji Hyun rocked the red carpet and events in feminine and glamourous looks, starting with a soft pink ruffled dress with a deep v cut. But my favorite of her looks has got to be the black sparkler with a slight train, it was slimming and she just rocked it!

Yuan Li looked fab in a soft lilac gown with crystal embellishments accesorized with a silver glitter clutch

Cecilia Wang and Donnie Yen were promoting "Wu Xia" at Cannes. Cissy wore a ruffled strapless gown to the premiere and a short floral dress to photocall.

Of all the ladies, I think Li Xiao Ran had the most color variety, wearing a different colored gown every day. I wasn't a fan of her biege Elie Saab because the ruching is slightly unflattering and the color just washed her out.
HK Best actress Kara Hui showed up at Cannes in a black strapless gown with tiered ruffles and showed off some legs in a short red dress for the photocall. Who says you can't be forty and fabulous?
Funny woman Sandra Ng got to go to Cannes, thanks to her husband Peter's directorial work in "Wu Xia". She opted for a sparkly sandy dress for the premiere and a sheer Peter Pilotto dress for the morning photocall.
Wendy Deng, the wife of Rupert Murdoch went to Cannes in style wearing a leaf embellished chiffon gown and a chic purple cocktail dress in the evening.
UPDATE: Forgot to add Aishwarya Rai, can't forget our South East Asians! (Thanks Hungover on Fashion for the tip!) Former pageant queen and Bollywood actress looked stunning in a gray floral laced Elie Saab and an attention grabbing white/blue Armani Prive. She tends to go for more subtle and neutral colors, but I would've loved to see her in something more bright like red or coral.
