In the Foochow culture as in most ethnic Chinese culture, red is for auspicious occasions. Other than that, red is a little too loud for most occasions unless one is very young and beautiful.
I definitely cannot wear red 
For ths week’s post I had to dredge up old pics. This pic was taken during an auspicious occasion. Here you see Mrs Bengbeng being made up. I was shooed out of the room while she was made ready.
Mrs Bengbeng is a very simple woman who never wears make up. So, for her it was a new experience. But it had to be done to suit the occasion.
Voila, the make up is complete I thought of asking the beautician for the same treatment, One look at me, she combed my hair with one brisk stroke and said she could no more. Beyond help I believe she said. She smiled and winked so I don’t know if she meant it 
Have a great weekend every body.
red it is, I tried finding one with my friend in traditional red, but I realised I formated my PC
i had lost so many pics due to my carelessness. i had to wats the word scan these pics from hard copy
Ooo…wolf whistles!!! Mrs Bengbeng is like one of those Shaw Brothers actresses from those days when they were churning out movies like…illegal vcds today! LOL!!! If I remember correctly, there was one named Wang Ping (Nope! Not Wang Yu! That’s a guy! Hahahahaha!!!).

Every Beat Of My Heart
Great kimono and beautiful shots. Don’t beat yourself up, the beautician meant that you do not need more work!
That’s a great take on the red theme. Somehow I missed seeing this earlier. I think I saw your weekend snapshot and commented on that and then realized I missed your photohunt pic. I’m glad I went back and looked for it. I love the red outfit.
