Gung Hay Fat Choy

 

Gung Hay Fat Choy means "Best wishes and Congratulations. Have a prosperous and good year."

I’m Filipino and we do not celebrate Chinese New Year.  However since I realized that I never had an entry of our New Year’s Eve celebration, I thought it would be nice to coincide this with the Chinese New Year.

Me and Hubs headed up to Red Hook Brooklyn for a private, invite-only New Year’s Eve party at Brooklyn Motor Works sponsored by AYAK (As You Already Know) Magazine.

Since we just got hit with a really bad snow storm the day after Christmas, I did not feel like wearing heels.  

I used to rock Timbs in my senior year of high school (thinkin’ I was all thug - yeah, keep thinking that poser!)

So needless to say, high school has come and gone and I’ve never rocked them again.  Until now...

Instead, I opted for my Timberland ‘Reykir Ghillie’ Boots.  Can be purchased here.  These shoes were paired with skinny jeans, a silver striped top and my Ben Sherman Bomber with faux fur-lined hoodie.

I was so glad I’ve worn these!  I was dreading having to walk over the snow covered sidewalks and curbs of Brooklyn.  The inside was lined with fleece which kept my feet war.  And, I was able to shake my tailfeather without having my feet hurt by the end of the night!

These Timbs were one of my purchases from 2 years back that I’ve never worn.  It was hidden on the top shelf of our coat closet.

Cue coat closet again:

Me and Hubs at New Years Eve - I think this was taken after the ball dropped for 2011!  (don’t mind the blurry image, we were standing in front of a fire pit)

 

Currently: listening to Debbie Gibson station at Pandora radio-they are playing The Jets “You Got It All”.
