As a person whom constantly search the internet for inspiration from street style pictures of other stylish talents particularly during fashion weeks hosted all over the world, I couldn't help but wanting to feel for a change, to be in one of the 'street style' snaps instead. One of the many reasons why street style remains as one of my biggest inspiration is that the styles that were being captured, they all depict an individual's personality and characteristics through his or her sense of style. So raw and original, I simply love how each is able to tell a story, the character and behaviour of each person if you were to scrutinize what and how they wear an outfit. It does hold some truth to the saying 'a picture paint a thousand words'. As Perth Fashion Festival was running th[...]

HELLLOOOOO to all you chic-sters out there, hope everyone has planned a wonderful weekend ahead or if you haven't, take a breather from what you're doing and head out to experience every little detail in your surrounding. So, so good for the soul and I'm really thankful that my beautiful Saturday is here, yet again! It's been a busy week for me and I've got some exciting stuffs coming up soon so do watch out on this space! ;) Denim pieces has always been a staple in my wardrobe because it's such a versatile piece for many different styles out there. Pale, dark, white-washed, tie-dyed, 50 shades of blue (hahaha so corny!) or even printed denim! There's just so much you can do to denim that you'll get a headache from thinking all the endless possibilities. However, I'll just focus mai[...]

How is everyone out there enjoying their long weekend (for those in Australia) or Monday? Waking up this morning wishing how blissful it will be to have a three day weekend every single week. For awhile now, I have been crossing the lines experimenting with various looks and pieces in the hopes of achieving a look with a strong urban cool sense of style. I have to admit that I was probably watching too much of Step Up series which could potentially be one of the main reason that sparked off this idea. But then again, it's always nice to give yourself a challenge to match the available pieces from your wardrobe to put a new look altogether! For this look that I put on, I thought of keeping it simple by pairing a warm down vest which my mum had gotten me from Uniqlo and a print[...]

Morning loves! If you might have noticed, my blog has been undergoing a huge makeover and it still is, yikes! I've been using the old template for a few years now and I just thought that it is now time for me to establish a proper website for my new blog, so here it is! Please, please do leave me a comment below or contact me if you have any suggestions or ideas that on what you would like to see in my blog! That'll be really helpful and highly appreciated. Breton stripes has always been one of the most accommodating print in the dictionary of prints. If you're heading for the subtle key, there are endless possibilities on how you can pair a stripe print piece. But if your style are leaning towards the loud side of prints, stripes could match with any (literally, just any!) other p[...]

Many a time, I've always contemplated getting plain white tees with slogans because there is only so many times that you can wear them without overkilling it. However, I've succumbed to getting Michael Agwunobi's tees when I laid my eyes on them, lo and behold, all my opinion on tees were thrown out of the window instantly. In fact, I almost missed my flight back home for Chinese New Year while fighting with the rest of the world virtually while purchasing this tee. That was, what I'd call, an intense battle. Much like the statement of my tee, line up the bitches. :twisted: It wasn't long after till I get into a full on obsession with slogan tees because they're just so versatile to play around with. There are just so many ways one can[...]

Hi everyone, I hope that all of you had a fabulous week just like how I enjoyed mine! :) A little random fact about myself would be that I'm a lover of all things quirky, which means that I'll be sold if you show me a pair of flats that's designed around an animal. And how much better can it get when it's of a dog's breed! That's just the perfect icing on the cake above all things. Considering that this was also taken back in Malaysia, where the hot and humid weather only permits choices of clothing which allows for maximum breeze. At the same time, seeing how it was Chinese New Year then, it wouldn't be ideal to rock up at your relatives' houses in a pair of denim shorts and tee. One of the prettiest buy that I got myself during my Melbourne trip was this pair of ch[...]

Greetings love! It has definitely been ages since I've last blogged but if you hadn't noticed, I've been doing a big shift from http://melissa.momo4ever.com to this newly set up site Sparkles and Fox! It surely did took me awhile before I settle for a name because I wanted something where I can use till the end of time, possibly.. If you've noticed, I'm still in the midst of setting up my blog and I did gather some blog posts on this site from my previous blog, but if you would want to read all my posts from years before, feel free to head over to http://sparklesandfox.wordpress.com/. It's good to be back to keep the ball rolling, so why don't I start from where I'm supposed to have blogged about months ago? These pictures were taken back in February when I was still in Malaysia[...]

What better way to end the last day of the year with a bang other than to spend the day seeing all things bright and shiny. And to make it even more obvious, where else in Melbourne would you be able to find a beach lined with brightly coloured huts none other than the Brighton Beach! It was quite a bummer at the same time that the owners of the cafe have decided to take a rest on the last day, because I was looking forward on going to Mart 130 for a nice brunch! Plus, it wasn't really helping when our next random pick of cafe was closed as well. I guess it's true what they've say, 'Third time's the charm' when we stumbled upon Inkr7 Bar and Grill. We were famished by the time we found ourselves seated, the aroma coming from the open kitchen was simply testing o[...]

This might probably sound shallow to some but I absolutely adore all the movies and drama series that revolves around styles. It's how they show an individual's characteristic through the means of clothing and exaggerates it, and I really like that. Consequently, it got me thinking that, why shouldn't we make a statement and express ourselves that way by going all out, just because. And that's exactly what I did on the fifth day of our Melboure Trip where we've planned on heading to the parks and doing a whole bunch of sight seeings. I don't think it's weird or ever wrong if you just want to go to the park in a dress that makes you feel like a ball of fluff! It's funny because when we started our morning by meeting Valerie, the only thing that came of her first mouth before ev[...]
