Hey friends my name is Tee and welcome to my very own blog! BLOG. Blogger. It’s not something that I would have dreamed of doing or being. Yet here I am, taking that step, getting my feet wet into this unknown world. Many of you know me from my Instagram, and I am forever humbled and appreciative for your endless support there. Seriously. It amazes me to even think you clicked the link in my bio and are currently reading my very first post.
Some little facts about me. I was born in the Philippines, but I am full Chinese. They call us Filipino-Chinese and our dialect is Fukien (from the Fujien province of China). I now live in Toronto married to a wonderful and supportive husband (also known as the infamous Instagram husband). We have two adorable and well behaved puppies whom we love so very much.
Some people would think my day job is cool. I’m a dance studio owner and the Artistic Director of VYbE Dance Company in Toronto since 1996. I’ve danced with some pretty cool artists and choreographed for many cool events and productions nationally and internationally.
So what am I doing starting this bloggity blog thingy. Well, I figure I need a place to put down my thoughts and creative visuals. I can’t post everything on my Instagram, cus you know. FEED issues. Instagrammers understand what I’m talking about (am I right). I love creating, I love concept. Especially in photos. Which is why I fell in love with Instagram in the first place. I love photography, but I’m still a technical dimwit at it. Cue the hubby! My husband Lawrence is my partner in photography crime. So with my direction, we are going to enter into this blogging world. We are still learning, so I hope you can be patient while we figure things out.
If you haven’t noticed, I love FASHION. More importantly, I love STYLE. Hashtag OOTD. If I were to describe what my style is, I have to say minimal street chic is what i go for. I love layers and oversize dressing and am somewhat of a tomboy when I dress. Needless to say, I dress for comfort. Most days. These days, I’ve been loving the sexiness of the high heel. Couple that with a tomboy look and BAM. That So Me.
So how did I do on my very first blog post? I’d love to hear your thoughts. Feel free to say hello and leave a comment below.
Have a super duper awesome week ahead!

No way! So cool to find another Chinese-Filipino Torontonian! Do you speak Fukien? And where are you from in the Philippines ?!
Omgosh cool! I actually do not speak Fukien, only English which is so horrible of me I know. I was born in Manila! So happy to hear from a fellow Fil-Chi! Woot woot!
