Link of the Week: Hong Kong Hustle

Beautiful Hong Kong, originally uploaded by cblee.

Hong Kong Hustle
Hong Kong nightlife, street fashion, culture and cool
(www.hongkonghustle.com)

This is probably one of my favorite blogosphere finds in recent weeks. With this blog, you and I can live in HK vicariously and pretend that we part of the cool crowd….one of the people who always know where and when all the “it”parties are happening. Since 2005, Hong Kong Hustle has been offering an alternative glimpse into HK’s urban life and nightlife, very different than the often cutesy and squeaky clean image (though Edison Chen pretty much shattered that earlier this year) that is portrayed in the media. The unnamed blogger covers everything from art & design, food, local culture, music & DJs, parties & events and people.

Side Note: As I do my usual, sit at home and find an interesting blog to read routine, I’ll be sharing my favorite finds each Friday beginning today. As you can probably guess, I am trying to add a little more structure (i.e. editorial calendar) to my blog; however, I am still working out what I will be posting on the other days…..just like Disneyland, this blog will always be under construction. Enjoy!

In the same week (week of May 29), Coach and Diesel launched their new flagship stores with some very hipster parties and fashion shows, which no doubt spared no expenses. This will be Coach’s third store in HK and Diesel’s first. Looks like those HK’ers can now have all the luxury leather purses and high-end jeans that they can afford (that is, if they prefer the authentic stuff…hehe).

Checkout Hong Kong Hustle for more photos and tidbits about the Coach party and the Diesel party.
