DRESS AND SHOES BY VALENTINO
今年春季時尚界新發表的服飾中，不乏一些帶有法國懷舊氣息的設計。如略有法國南部和 波希米亞風格的設計中，又結合巴黎懷舊式的花長裙。透過搭配可以穿出度假或城市時尚的 不同情趣。包裹密實的長裙，配上飄逸的袖口和春天般的色彩，優雅傳統的設計中透著女性 美。配上頭巾和細長圍巾，打造出春日氣息的度假時尚。盤起雲髻，配上高筒長靴，快步在都 會區的石疊路上，又會帶來完全不同的氣質。

he late nights, six-day intensive weeks, and six-month-long tours don’t feel like an overwhelming schedule to dancer Angela Xiao. What for many of us would be a great personal sacrifice, for her is a life well-lived. “I don’t like wasting time,” said Xiao, who has been dancing for ten years with the world’s premier classical Chinese dance company, Shen Yun Performing Arts. Exuding a fascinating mix of bubbliness and sincerity, she said that she feels lucky to be doing something purposeful; in fact, sometimes on vacation, she doesn’t know what to do with her time. Xiao loves the excitement of touring—trying new foods and learning new things—but after nearly a
從2009年起，肖嘉祺便隨美國神韻神韻團赴世界各地 巡迴演出，她說這已是生命中無可取代的歲月。馬不停 蹄的數月排練，長達半年的巡演，肖嘉祺一年之中鮮少 有休息時間。如此緊湊的時程年復一年，若非擁有超人 的意志，似乎難以走過這般漫長的時日。然而，她卻不 認為這是一種犧牲，反之，她很慶幸自己擁有此般經歷。 美國神韻藝術團致力於復興中華五千年文明，透 過純善、純美的演出，帶領觀眾領略神州大地的輝煌歲 月。肖嘉祺身為其中一名舞蹈演員，她穿上各朝、各民 族亮麗精細的服飾，展現或謙柔、或俏麗、或優雅的儀 態。換下戲服後，她臉上的笑容依舊甜美，言談間卻透 露出其眼界格局頗有古時志士之風，這使我們更加好奇 是什麼樣的歷練造就了她⋯⋯

These include dry-aged rib eye, beef rib, beef bulgogi, beef tongue, thin-sliced beef brisket, pork ribs, pork belly, and more. missKOREA’s signature dish is the Clay Pot Galbi, which is made from short ribs and marinated in its own original sauce, before being placed in a special clay pot for over 48 hours. The meticulous two-day process brings out the best texture and finest flavor. To allow guests to enjoy a diverse sampling of meats, missKOREA has curated three barbecue set meals: the Longevity Set, the Happiness Set, and the Love Set.

The BBQ grill seals in the juices and locks in the f lavor, while giving the outside that perfect crispiness. At missKorea, you’ll get more than just a good meal—guests receive an overall experience, as well as an introduction to a new cultural perspective.
