Miss Kitty Goes: Honkers


Another day and another apology. Since we got back from Hong Kong we have been overwhelmed by STUFF. Things to do. It's party season here for the little bug so we are busy trotting off to those on weekends and there is an awful lot of work to be done for the Jewel Collective over the next few months. Plus we are attempting to buy a house... It's never just one thing is it?

We met lots of lovely potential suppliers at the trade show in Hong Kong. Alas, there wasn't an awful lot of time left for other, more fun things. We had a few dinners out (one reasonably posh one) but the rest of our meals were very utilitarian, unfortunately. Ahhh - the joys of travelling with a child. For work. The best of both worlds!

We did manage to squeeze in a little bit of fun - a small amount of shopping for the bug. Some yummy food. Suffice to say we are looking forward to another trip next year.

Yummy Katsu from Ginza Bairin and pork buns from Tim Ho Wan:


 

And leopard print macaron boxes from Laduree. I mean, did you EVER??



I did manage to buy a few small things for myself - a couple of scarves at Zara, a bangle from Shanghai Tang and this little amethyst and pink sapphire beauty from the Trade Show from a Thai jeweller who had the most spectacular things...
 Despite the heat, I even managed a few good hair days:



Starbucks Salted Caramel Mocha Frappucinos: I miss you so much, but my thighs do not miss you at all.



Georgie scored well - two pairs of Melissa shoes and this awesome fur gillet from Zara. They do have fantastic kids clothes!



 

And we toasted the end of our trip with a few cocktails at Aqua, whilst watching the gorgeous lights of the harbour below us.



Honkers, you never cease to amaze us with your beauty and fast pace. Hopefully we will see you again next year!
