I loved the outfit you put together the most ❤️ plus the first custom suit you wore, I love how the best was cut just enough for the belt buckle to show.
Really enjoy all the outfits, but my favorite are the 3rd and the 4th one. That babydoll style dress😍 I was really touched by stories of these ladies with glasses, slippers and airplane olives. They do a great job!🤗 Thank you Taylor for telling us their stories and introducing their business❤️
Comfy and cute outfit = 6 Would love to wear outfit = 4 The history Geeky/nerd in me loves the locations = 1 & 3 The story with #6 got me to tears, she's so precious!
The glasses store lady is my idol now 😆 "I didn't tell my husband.. I was hiding them under the bed, on the roof... It's my money and I can buy what I want with it!" SHE IS A WHOLE MOOD ❤️ Awesome video as always, Taylor. Love from the USA!
The last story of the woman selling the airplane olives brought tears to my eyes 🥲 Thank you so much Taylor! You’ve shared so many people’s stories that I would never known about if it wasn’t for you. Like you said, change is inevitable but it makes my happy to see people like you embracing what little is still left 💕
Super glad to know that these shops got thru COVID (especially the heritage places)!! It’s so nice seeing ur friendship with the owners develop too ☺️☺️
strangely in the UK covid has made people buy local more as the shipping was terrible for a period! so alot of our local places have expanded and done well :) looks like it's the same for HK
I have been watching you for years, and to see how you have matured is just incredible! You are still totally Taylor, but the care you put into your videos has just gone through the roof! So glad you have not only taken us on a vintage fashion journey, but you have also gone to some amazing places and helped us learn about different areas of Hong Kong and their impact on the community!
I really love this series Tay, it's a great idea! At the same time every time the video finished, I feel so sad to all this old and traditional things will disappear one day because the new generation aren't interested. Here in Italy we have the same problem with some artisan work that require patience and hard work to learn.. people nowadays always run and lost interest in the small handmade and precious things :(
I agree. I'm from Mexico. I would like to shop that more but it is honestky super expensivr and wages are low. I believe that's more of a reason than the lack of interest. People who buy handmade are usually people with money
Hey! I just wanted to say that people of my generation (I’m 17) are still very much interested- we get drowned out by the trends sometimes but we’re still here! :)
Seeing all of these shops, crafts, and specialties pass away makes watching these videos bittersweet. I sometimes wish I could be all things and offer help to everyone, but these things have made it this far because the people behind them made them their one and only mission. At the same time, it feels kind of precious to know that you were alive during the short time in history that some of these businesses were around, doesn't it? Love that these videos are offering a little historic preservation in the great big sea of TH-cam.
Now I wish I could buy a surprise box with a mix of goods from these shops to support the businesses and have a little piece of HK! Everything you featured is wonderful!
That’s such a good idea. I wonder if I could make some limited edition boxes for my shop to sell online if the amazing stuff I find here 🤔 I’ll think about it and talk to people
wait this series is genius, LOVED THE STORIES, meeting the people especially older businesses and seeing the architecture. Mixed my passion for history, fashion and exploring. This is literally so immersive pls continue this ! ( should covid allow of course )
I absolutely loved how she incorporated the people and their stories, the last woman's story specially hit different. As a person who's obsessed with fashion, this was the first time that the outfits took a second seat (they were all lovely though💕)
I love that you showed such old businesses that are at risk of disappearing. It's nice to see someone preserving these crafts and places and I'm sure the owners appreciate it too
I usually don't leave youtube comments but as someone who was born in HK and raised in the US, I know very little about HK aside from a few trips there and info I get online. Just wanted to say how much appreciate this series and all the research you do. HK is constantly modernizing and redeveloping that old school businesses are often forced to close down and move out. It's so wonderful to see someone appreciating the work they do and giving them a platform to share their stories. I'm sure these videos will be a precious memory to many in the future :)
Taylor treasures…could be the title of a series (Netflix worthy). These things, people, businesses and buildings are treasures of the past and should be cherished and preserved with humility. Thank you for this wonderful content keep it up! ❤️ love from Canada 😘
It actually brings tears into my eyes to hear these people's stories, esp those where the long traditions might get lost in the future. I'm glad you're preserving some of it and showing it to people from all over the world! And I loved all the outfits, but esp the 60s dress with polkadot details and the 70s look you styled yourself! 💕
I am glad that you are back in TH-cam, Miss Taylor. Firstly, cold bottled milk tea is refreshing without ice. Secondly, wearing vintage for a week is sounds challenging, but the outfits can provide a nostalgic and beautiful feeling to you. And I like these outfits, which allows me to learn what HK citizens wear in the past.
BRILLIANT! I am sadly leaving HK after a decade here, I will visit King's Slippers to buy several pairs before I go. And one can never have to many sunglasses so Woo Ping is a must. I love Dot Vintage, I have the coolest shirt from there. Love your vids Taylor! I appreciate how you continue to highlight this magical unique city. (The red dress was AMAZING.)
This video is so refreshing! I am a grandma now and those dresses throw me back to when i was a young girl ! I grew up poor and tried to make my own style using my Aunts' hand me down clothes. Lovely! lovely! lovely! Thank you for the creativeness and effort put in this fun and nostalgic video! Okay, last thing, I love the way you talk to the people. You are kind and respectful!
You should totally sell those amazing embroidered slippers and the vintage glasses in your website I would totally buy some and I'm certain your audience would buy hem too, they are all so beautiful and unique to that part of the world! I fell in love with the ladies of the glasses, slippers and olives!!!!! They are so sweet and hard working their inner beauty and strength shines even through the screen of my computer! I'm so glad you allowed people to learn their stories and help preserve them!
So excited for this 😊💕 This is literally the best idea for a day out ever ! Buy a beautiful Vintage Outfit and go enjoy your day somewhere nostalgic 😊 Would love to do this with friends!
This is such great quality content!! You manage to perfectly combine your passion for fashion with your love for Hong Kong and its rich culture in one video. How is this free for us to watch?! :)
Wow. I expected to watch a fun, fashionable video and I ended up feeling so inspired by the way you highlighted all of these local shops. It made me feel a bit sad as well but also hopeful that people will see this and would want to continue or take part in the tradition.
Taylor what you're doing is wonderful. We need to learn from the past, appreciate tradition, and keep these beautiful people in our memories. I love that you're bringing something onto social media that otherwise may remain unknown. More please!
I feel like moving to Hong Kong and buying shares in these businesses that are at risk of closing forever because there is no one to continue on after 😫 if only I could afford to do that 🥺 Taylor, my goodness, you definitely need to add more green to your wardrobe 💚 The bright green and olive green dress both looked beautiful against your skin tone and with your hair this gorgeous dark blonde colour 😍
The clothes you were wearing are beautiful. Love everything else you showed us from the all the shops to the local lovely people. Thanks for sharing 👍 🥰
I'm in HK for a 2 year study abroad (i'm in quarantine rn) so I'm living vicariously through your videos! You were one of the main sources of excitement for me!
@@Hgvyygjhbhjguyh no! im in english programs in both unis, but if you can't speak chinese (in HK) or japanese (in japan), you need to take those language classes :)
Love both the concept of dressing vintage and visting old places! These days we are obsessed with the new and we should still learn to appreciate traditions and the old
This was such a cool and unique video! Loved the premise and execution! I feel like I just had a little trip through the decades and to Hong Kong over my coffee here in Chicago. So fun! Thank you!
You're so thoughtful Taylor in this time we're all grieving by the death of HONGKONG you're here to show us around the hidden beauty we could see from the past , we're all still loving this city but sadly it won't be the same again .
Documenting the world as they are today is so important to preserve memories into the future! One of the most famous examples I know is a guy decided to mount an early film camera to an automobile and slowly drive it down market street, from one end to the other, in San Francisco sometime within the week BEFORE the big earthquake hit. Because of this, he preserved a record of the appearance of the city, basically it's gold rush/Victorian phase, forever on film for people in the future to enjoy. Even if things change, documenting them now helps us be able to share and pass down memories through the ages!
Taylor, your outfits were so beautiful! My personal favourite was bright green dress. I loved that you showed those local businesses and introduced the people who run them! It’s lovely of you to give them the attention they deserve, in such a creative way! Your videos are always a treat! Much love from a fellow Canadian!
The red baby-doll dress looks like it was made with you in mind! It looks gorgeous on you!!! And thank you for teaching us so much about Hong Kong, it's absolutely fascinating!
I started crying at the olives part. Her husbands legacy is so cool and its wonderful how she is keeping it alive. Unfortunately I didn't know about her or see her on my trip to Hong Kong but hopefully when this pandemic dies down ill be able to come across her on my next trip. These videos are fantastic Taylor! You've gotten so good at storytelling, In a way you'll be preserving these people and traditions will never disappear because they'll be preserved in your videos. p.s. The glasses lady was everything. Yes aunty you do what you want with your money! A born businesswoman
I love the outfits and how Taylor conected them with nostalgic places from Hong Kong. I'm learning so much about chinese culture with this channel and it makes me appreciate it more
every time i watch one of your videos it feels as if you’re taking me on a journey, you go so in depth with the topics and research, and the quality is outstanding. i loved the 4th outfit on you!
This vid almost made me cry! 😭 So sad how the older generation’s products and shops will no longer be around in the future. 😭😭 I really liked the olive green dress ensemble! #5 I think? But the colorful floral dress was cute also!
This video must be one of my all time favourites from you, Taylor. I rarely comment but I watch your videos very very often. I gotta say that all these history fighters are heroes to me, but in special the women. I am not related whatsoever to Hong Kong, but this video made me tear because the couple of times I was there I felt a little bit home and I really hope this does not disappear. Thank you for showing us not only the flashy and glamorous side, but also like this time, the history and the people behind it. Wishing that I can come back again soon for another visit. Thank you again, Taylor. PS: I cannot decide between the vintage outfits, they were all stunning on you.
Taylor, I’ve been really really enjoying to it content about HK lately. As someone who grew up there but has now moved away - this is making me extremely home sick! You paint HK in such a beautiful light and also introduces to so many wonderful places. Thanks for bringing these dying arts to our attention. Keep it up xx
This video made me so happy ❤️ thank you for putting a spotlight on these people and places! As someone who has never been anywhere in Asia I really appreciate being transported somewhere totally unique and special oceans away from where I live
Maybe one of my fave videos! I love the beautiful vintage and how you paired the outfits with such interesting nostalgic locations. Lovely to explore the past and meet these local characters.
Loved this vintage clothes vlog, but what captured me most was the lovely lady with the olives 🫒 absolutely a love story so heart warming and showed the point of love❤ , respecting the life she shared with her husband to carry on his idea and love for what he earned money with , simply lovely 😍
i absolutely looooved this video and hearing the voices of people who make these crafts and traditions live on!! paired with the great fashion it was such a lovely ride through Hong Kong, thank you for making us travel with you Taylor 🙌
Thank you for bringing these handicrafts, heritage and dying arts to light. Hong Kong Is changing and its future uncertain. Thanks Taylor. Love the babydoll dress!
Oh my gosh! These outfits are amazing, I would love to shop and be styled by these incredible places!I love the red babydoll dress with the big bow! So cute! 😁💃
Love me some taytay vlog showing vintage pieces accompanied by hong Kong culture. Love it love it. Never a dull moment with Taylor. Love you Taylor 💖💖💖
I didn’t really think I’d be interested in vintage shopping, but this video was amazing to watch. I would have never known the stories and felt so transported. Fantastic!
Thank you for showing me the side of Hong Kong that my dad remembers growing up! We live in Canada and don't often visit and when we do--- the trips are short and typically spent with relatives. Your videos give me the great visuals to the memories he tells me about.
Oh Taylor, you're such a sweetheart...full of grace! The first outfit with the bag and the yellow socks was so stunning!!! They all were...you and your family; God Bless you❤❤❤😘😘🙏
I love that you are capturing the historical side of HK!! What a wonderful way to showcase a snippet of their rich history with a fashion twist. It was such a joy to watch
What a wonderful video! I loved all the outfits, but I definitely enjoyed your talks with the owners of these Hong Kong local businesses a lot more!! It felt so special to hear their beautiful stories, each one so unique, as unique as their business. I truly hope more people in the area can frequent these and many more local shops :) I wish I could go buy a pair of the sandals though, they are gorgerous
wow, this is amazing! I love these kind of "documentary" styles of your channel I haven´t been to Hong Kong in such a long time and this makes me wanna go back (and go back in time with these beautiful Vintage dresses), such a cool and fun idea to enjoy this vivid unique city!
Something about Tay being interested in vintage fashion and wearing it so beautifully makes me so happy! And the people were so lovely, I really felt like I was there and chatting with them like a customer. Oh and those slippers! I think I recognize them from the movie "in the mood for love", they are so beautiful they stuck in my head forever. Thanks Tay and everyone involved for this video!
Love love love these styles of videos you do Taylor!! They give me Anthony Bourdain travel show vibes & such a joy to watch. What a great way to showcase vintage fashion available in Hong Kong - that red dress was so amazing, the colours that were chosen for for you were superb :)
i love the vintage aesthetic, thank you for making this video! my favourites are probably: 2 - the basket is the best part of the outfit 3 - the hip drape, the scarf, love it 5 - simple yet OH SO classy, the ribbon on the hat made it that much better 6 - man the flared denim, the round chunky platform, the frills on the top, i got major beatles vibes
I seriously love this so much. It's amazing to see how invested you are in a country that has become your home. Even though you are not a native you still love and respect the culture and its traditions. Getting to hear stories straight from people who have lived there for decades is so special. Very glad you decided to document all this for now and for later!
Many little nostalgic touches made all these shops special. I especially noted, at 6:49, the Little Dot poster made with the cast of F-Troop. I can still sing the theme song of that 1960s comedy.
Toooooo long since we saw you, I missed you and yours videos and was checking all the time to see if I missed it!!!😄 The idea for this video is so cool! I love to hear the story behind those der crafts, fashikns, stores, etc Your way of telling those stories was heart touching. My favorite look was days, day 3 and 5. Thank you so much Taylor for all the work put in this video....please dont be absent for another month 🥰💚💚💚
This is one of my favourite videos from you! I love it it's fun and lovely. It has people and makes me feel so uplifted. That's what I love about travelling and you have brought back that feeling. Also those outfits fit you perfectly and they look so amazing. I couldn't choose loved them all.
This video was amazing to discover the rich history of Hong Kong it is such an amazing city and all your looks were so elegant!! Good job Taylor, cannot wait to see more content ☺️☺️
Waited for this video before going to bed. Loved outfits 1 & 6 ❤️ Hope you continue to share more about the history and culture of HK. Definitely miss going there- taking notes from all of your videos for when I return once the pandemic ends. 🙏

I hope you enjoy this Vintage/Nostalgic Hong Video! I’d love to know which outfit/location(s) spoke to you?🤔 comment below!
The brown walking suit and the red baby doll style were too cute,honestly they all were stunning. Don't stay away so long Taylor🥲
I loved the outfit you put together the most ❤️ plus the first custom suit you wore, I love how the best was cut just enough for the belt buckle to show.
Really enjoy all the outfits, but my favorite are the 3rd and the 4th one. That babydoll style dress😍 I was really touched by stories of these ladies with glasses, slippers and airplane olives. They do a great job!🤗 Thank you Taylor for telling us their stories and introducing their business❤️
Comfy and cute outfit = 6
Would love to wear outfit = 4
The history Geeky/nerd in me loves the locations = 1 & 3
The story with #6 got me to tears, she's so precious!
i loved the red babydoll dress, please upload more on youtube, dont let your awesome channel die
The glasses store lady is my idol now 😆 "I didn't tell my husband.. I was hiding them under the bed, on the roof... It's my money and I can buy what I want with it!" SHE IS A WHOLE MOOD ❤️ Awesome video as always, Taylor. Love from the USA!
Hahaha I loved her too!
Yes! She had an eye for business and went for it, such a badass!
Loved her!
She has a name
seriously i loved her so much hahah!!!!
The last story of the woman selling the airplane olives brought tears to my eyes 🥲
Thank you so much Taylor! You’ve shared so many people’s stories that I would never known about if it wasn’t for you. Like you said, change is inevitable but it makes my happy to see people like you embracing what little is still left 💕
Me too! @Taylor_R I'm interested in knowing if she's still selling her olives
Super glad to know that these shops got thru COVID (especially the heritage places)!! It’s so nice seeing ur friendship with the owners develop too ☺️☺️
Yesss me too! ❤️
strangely in the UK covid has made people buy local more as the shipping was terrible for a period! so alot of our local places have expanded and done well :) looks like it's the same for HK
I hope these traditions never die. I hope all the kids and family of these people keep everything going, the clothes, the shoes and the olives
Is it just me or were people more imaginative, built better character and unique personalities in the past before social media?
I have been watching you for years, and to see how you have matured is just incredible! You are still totally Taylor, but the care you put into your videos has just gone through the roof! So glad you have not only taken us on a vintage fashion journey, but you have also gone to some amazing places and helped us learn about different areas of Hong Kong and their impact on the community!
Ahhh thank you so much for this 🙏🏻❤️
I really love this series Tay, it's a great idea! At the same time every time the video finished, I feel so sad to all this old and traditional things will disappear one day because the new generation aren't interested. Here in Italy we have the same problem with some artisan work that require patience and hard work to learn.. people nowadays always run and lost interest in the small handmade and precious things :(
I agree. I'm from Mexico. I would like to shop that more but it is honestky super expensivr and wages are low. I believe that's more of a reason than the lack of interest. People who buy handmade are usually people with money
Hey! I just wanted to say that people of my generation (I’m 17) are still very much interested- we get drowned out by the trends sometimes but we’re still here! :)
@@Kaybye555 exactly my thoughts! Still, let's hope these amazing art practices get to stay around somehow in all our countries!
Love from Italy ❤️
@@autumnsphere1748 agreed
Welcome to the fast pace of the industry world that says 'quantity>quality' and it'll only get worse... 😔 very unfortunate.

The slipper lady touched my heart, the olive candy man made me cried ❤️
So obsessed with all the looks
Taylor is breathtaking ❤️ no apologies, past fashions are superior to modern and current.

These seniors are amazing and really thankful for them to preserve these culture
So excited for this 😊💕 This is literally the best idea for a day out ever ! Buy a beautiful Vintage Outfit and go enjoy your day somewhere nostalgic 😊 Would love to do this with friends!
Yes!! 🙌🏻❤️
If only everyone had the work ethic that these shop owners do, the world would be a better place. Thank you Taylor, this is journalism at its best!

The story of the airplane olive got me what a beautiful story.
Who would've thought a weebo model in Japan would become the one to highlight vintage fashion and fading HK culture? Excellent concept!
Taylor what you're doing is wonderful. We need to learn from the past, appreciate tradition, and keep these beautiful people in our memories. I love that you're bringing something onto social media that otherwise may remain unknown. More please!
I feel like moving to Hong Kong and buying shares in these businesses that are at risk of closing forever because there is no one to continue on after 😫 if only I could afford to do that 🥺

You're so thoughtful Taylor in this time we're all grieving by the death of HONGKONG you're here to show us around the hidden beauty we could see from the past , we're all still loving this city but sadly it won't be the same again .
Documenting the world as they are today is so important to preserve memories into the future!

Taylor, your outfits were so beautiful! My personal favourite was bright green dress. I loved that you showed those local businesses and introduced the people who run them! It’s lovely of you to give them the attention they deserve, in such a creative way! Your videos are always a treat! Much love from a fellow Canadian!
Agree #tearyeyedemoji
You have the biggest heart, Taylor. So glad that you’re sharing these shop owner’s stories! I hope that their histories and traditions pass on.
I love how you integrated fashion and history in one video. These vintage places are national treasures
The red baby-doll dress looks like it was made with you in mind! It looks gorgeous on you!!! And thank you for teaching us so much about Hong Kong, it's absolutely fascinating!
I started crying at the olives part. Her husbands legacy is so cool and its wonderful how she is keeping it alive. Unfortunately I didn't know about her or see her on my trip to Hong Kong but hopefully when this pandemic dies down ill be able to come across her on my next trip.
These videos are fantastic Taylor! You've gotten so good at storytelling, In a way you'll be preserving these people and traditions will never disappear because they'll be preserved in your videos.
p.s. The glasses lady was everything. Yes aunty you do what you want with your money! A born businesswoman

i absolutely looooved this video and hearing the voices of people who make these crafts and traditions live on!! paired with the great fashion it was such a lovely ride through Hong Kong, thank you for making us travel with you Taylor 🙌
I love the fact that you show local stores and talk with the owners :) we also learn about HK culture that way
Thank you for bringing these handicrafts, heritage and dying arts to light. Hong Kong Is changing and its future uncertain. Thanks Taylor.
Love the babydoll dress!
Oh my gosh! These outfits are amazing, I would love to shop and be styled by these incredible places!I love the red babydoll dress with the big bow! So cute! 😁💃
Love me some taytay vlog showing vintage pieces accompanied by hong Kong culture. Love it love it. Never a dull moment with Taylor. Love you Taylor 💖💖💖
I didn’t really think I’d be interested in vintage shopping, but this video was amazing to watch. I would have never known the stories and felt so transported. Fantastic!
since 2014 ive been watching you, and you only get better! thank you for the amazing content
Thank you for showing me the side of Hong Kong that my dad remembers growing up! We live in Canada and don't often visit and when we do--- the trips are short and typically spent with relatives. Your videos give me the great visuals to the memories he tells me about.
Oh Taylor, you're such a sweetheart...full of grace! The first outfit with the bag and the yellow socks was so stunning!!! They all were...you and your family; God Bless you❤❤❤😘😘🙏
I love that you are capturing the historical side of HK!! What a wonderful way to showcase a snippet of their rich history with a fashion twist. It was such a joy to watch
The No.5 outfit was definitely my fave! The open back with the gold fabric just wow
What a wonderful video! I loved all the outfits, but I definitely enjoyed your talks with the owners of these Hong Kong local businesses a lot more!! It felt so special to hear their beautiful stories, each one so unique, as unique as their business. I truly hope more people in the area can frequent these and many more local shops :) I wish I could go buy a pair of the sandals though, they are gorgerous
I love this video, I love how you used vintage fashion to tell the story of Hong Kong.
wow, this is amazing! I love these kind of "documentary" styles of your channel I haven´t been to Hong Kong in such a long time and this makes me wanna go back (and go back in time with these beautiful Vintage dresses), such a cool and fun idea to enjoy this vivid unique city!
I love these old HK highlight videos - it's really great to learn all this about a city you know well!
Your videos have such a warm energy
this episode is a real gem Taylor R, supporting small shops and merging it with your creativity, its AWESOME!
I love how much care you put into this video! I learned so much and love how you gave all these amazing shops a voice and let them tell their stories
Something about Tay being interested in vintage fashion and wearing it so beautifully makes me so happy! And the people were so lovely, I really felt like I was there and chatting with them like a customer. Oh and those slippers! I think I recognize them from the movie "in the mood for love", they are so beautiful they stuck in my head forever. Thanks Tay and everyone involved for this video!
Great movie! ❤️
Love love love these styles of videos you do Taylor!! They give me Anthony Bourdain travel show vibes & such a joy to watch. What a great way to showcase vintage fashion available in Hong Kong - that red dress was so amazing, the colours that were chosen for for you were superb :)
i love the vintage aesthetic, thank you for making this video! my favourites are probably:
2 - the basket is the best part of the outfit
3 - the hip drape, the scarf, love it
5 - simple yet OH SO classy, the ribbon on the hat made it that much better
6 - man the flared denim, the round chunky platform, the frills on the top, i got major beatles vibes
What an amazing concept Taylor. Terrific storytelling and interviews. You looked fab in every outfit - the babydoll dress was my favourite!
I LLOVEE these vintage hong videos, the lady with the shoes is so so wholesome, I really like the slipers.
Modern fashion might want to take a page out of styles from the past. All the looks were so tailored and really lovely❤❤❤
I love the third green outfit! So fresh and cheerful! Reminds me of Gucci vintage revival pieces too! Love form Manila!
Love love love these videos where you combine fashion with history and culture!
I seriously love this so much. It's amazing to see how invested you are in a country that has become your home. Even though you are not a native you still love and respect the culture and its traditions. Getting to hear stories straight from people who have lived there for decades is so special. Very glad you decided to document all this for now and for later!
Wow Milki’s accent is so beautiful! I love the way she says clothing and 1980s!
Many little nostalgic touches made all these shops special. I especially noted, at 6:49, the Little Dot poster made with the cast of F-Troop. I can still sing the theme song of that 1960s comedy.
I have the same white beaded bag, it belonged to my Grandma! It’s not in the best shape, but it still has her things inside. ❤️
felt emotional learning about those small local businesses! thank you for giving them a platform to share their amazing history ❤️
Toooooo long since we saw you, I missed you and yours videos and was checking all the time to see if I missed it!!!😄 The idea for this video is so cool! I love to hear the story behind those der crafts, fashikns, stores, etc Your way of telling those stories was heart touching. My favorite look was days, day 3 and 5.
Thank you so much Taylor for all the work put in this video....please dont be absent for another month 🥰💚💚💚
red dress is amazing, dark green dress is pretty to and feels like it is timeless
I love when you do things like this Taylor! They are so incredibly well done and with so much respect!
Love every single outfits you wear. More so those nostalgic locations. Love the slippers and the aeroplane olives!
This is one of my favourite videos from you! I love it it's fun and lovely. It has people and makes me feel so uplifted. That's what I love about travelling and you have brought back that feeling. Also those outfits fit you perfectly and they look so amazing. I couldn't choose loved them all.
Let's admit the fact that Taylor looks good on every colors and clothing style.
This video was amazing to discover the rich history of Hong Kong it is such an amazing city and all your looks were so elegant!! Good job Taylor, cannot wait to see more content ☺️☺️
the fourth outfit was an absolute fave, the glasses top it of perfectly
Waited for this video before going to bed. Loved outfits 1 & 6 ❤️ Hope you continue to share more about the history and culture of HK. Definitely miss going there- taking notes from all of your videos for when I return once the pandemic ends. 🙏
