Hen Hao

Good morning! Actually monday morning is never a good morning but I'll try to alleviate your pain. The week end is finally (finally?!?) over and I'm so tired that the only think I'm able to do is taping... Let's try to sum up what happened. SaturDAY: death on the coach. Sat evening I went to the best sushi restaurant in town. It's called Shintori and the thing I enjoyed more is the atmosphere (see the pics). Then, after a brief parenthesis (...) we moved to M1nt... as usual table, drink, drink, drink..... I met my friends from the Shanghai football team (that's why football night!) and dance on the stage with my girls all night long. Sunday morning I woke up pretty early (around 12 am) and I decided to be profitable: I put on my new Mcqueen foulard and I walked to Wagas... I studied sometime... then I got ready for dinner on the bund, my favorite place in SH. Then we moved to M2... but we came back early... I don't want to debilitate myself too much: in 2 days the week end start again!!!!!!
A special thanks to my friends from Boston: we are going to miss you! (actually we just left you and already miss you)
For the others: get ready for new arrivals.. other friends are coming soon.....

FF (freaky friday)

Bonjour or better... bonne soirée!  
It's 8:00 pm and I just realized that I spent all the day (that actually started at 4 pm) doing absolutely NOTHING! I'll sum up my Freaky Friday: as I wrote you yesterday, I needed new clothes so I put on my lita's shoes and I had a nice walk in french concession. I was looking for an hot/clubbing style outfit but I ended up with a very stylish Stella McCartney's little dress and an Alexander Mcqueen foulard. After a pit-stop at the hair dresser, I went home and get ready for the night out with my girls! (likely they're not anymore sick...or at least they so courageous to be able to go clubbing HARD even if sick: that's why I love them!) We started with a table at Geisha, again with our friends from Boston. Then we moved to M1nt where I met my chinese friend (X.D.) where I consumed a considerable amount of champagne (......). Then, as usual, we moved to Hollywood: it was completely full! I needed to find a shelter in the privé: i drunk some other glass of champagne while talking with a "friend"....... Untill 7:00 am... 
last thing I saw before going to bed? Have a look at the last picture of this post... 

ILOVETHISCITY

Ahhhhhh it's 8:10!! I need to be ready for another crazy night... 
Saturday night=football night (my friends know what I mean...... )  

GREETINGS

Life is hard!

Nihao readers!


I'm finally able to write: the past 2 days have been pretty hard (...) Actually my defeat started on wednesday night: in SH wed is ladies night that means all the ladies have free flows of champagne in all the top bars in the city... I started with a nice restaurant in which, to be able to get in, you have to find the right combination that is pretty hard cause you have no idea of which bottom press! When we finally get in we had a nice dinner with our friends visiting us from Boston. Then my lovely (but TERRIBLY sick) flatmates, left me with the boys and here started my lady night! We began having a nice walk on the bund (actually not so nice for me: super-high hills, leather jacket, obviously NO tights and 5 degrees celsius -.-) and we end up with Bar Rouge. We had a drink while looking at the skyline and we moved to M1NT. There was a flower power event and models night... actually I had decided not to drink anymore for a while: you know how many calories are there in a vodka redbull or in a jack and coke (my favourite)??? You really don't wanna know...... Actually it was too hard not to drink! We took a table with vodka... with "we" I mean the 4 of us... you can imagine (maybe not) our faces at the end of the night... the balance from M1NT is: a bottle of vodka, a glass of champagne and 2 nice white roses from a friend... BUT it's not the end of the story! After M1NT we moved to Hollywood... dance, dance, flirt, dance, drink, flirt, drink, dance, dance, dance....... 
6 a.m. I wisely decided to take a cab: I was totally OVER (but not drunk). The shifu (in China you call the taxi drivers in this way) drove me home while flirting with me (...) and when we were just in front of my door he told me "do you really want to go?"and tried to kiss me! AHHHHHHHHH I ran inside my door...
Yesterday nothing really interesting: just study... but my finance case is finally completed.. of course we miss the ppt: DETAILS (...) 
OMG today is Friday!! I guess tonight is going to be very hard: friday night in SH is the top night... I've no clue of what could I wear. Solution: this evening SHOPPING! 
I'll let you now about what I'll buy and of course I'll give you some "hard" detail about the night out.

Day 1

Another day is almost (you never know..) over and I'm so proud of me: I studied (...), had lunch in Wagas and enjoy a nice walk in Xintiandi while looking for a tunning centre.
YES, my body is not anymore yellow! Now I'm in my place, making plans for the week-end starting from tomorrow (yes, it starts on wednesday), and waiting for the dinner to be ready... ahhhhh today is a big day: I discovered how to turn the kitchen stove on! YAYYYY (If tomorrow I'm not going to post anything, you will easily imagine the reason why..........)
While writing I can see out of my window the SWFC (Shanghai World Financial Centre), the best skyscraper ever. I'm wondering how it's going to be tomorrow night when I'll join a party on the top of that. 
What am I going to wear? Who am I going to meet?




STAY ON

Here we are!

It's midnight and 34 minutes in Shanghai and the Rehab Shelter is finally online.


I don't want to bother you with a boring and long introduction about who I am, what I do, where I live and blablabla. You'll discover all these things by your own. Just a brief anticipation: FASHION, EVENTS, TRENDS and STORIES from one of the most talked about cities of the moment (SHANGHAI) from the singular perspective of an expat shopaholic, fashion mad, traveller, party girl and also student (even if  this is only of marginal importance...)


-few hours..


Get ready
