Urban Cool

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[...]

Being Bright at the Museum

Pun intended haha. It has been the same old weekly routine, spending one of the days during the weekend in the library to studying as much as we could to cover up what we procrastinated during the week seems like the only way to sustain a passing grade for our final exam haha! :twisted: Little did we know that there was a museum exhibition on animal fossils, so we got a little distracted ahahahhahaha! We both agreed that we definitely need to get our priorities right theeeeeeeeee NEXT TIME. :razz: Ughhhh this is so wrong from this angle now that I take a closer look at it HAHAHAHAHHA! Fully illustrated process of how fossils are created, not teeheehee. :twisted: It's quite eerie to be surrounded by so many skeletons but it certainly is interesting to see what's b[...]

Winter Flowers

*Takes a deep breath* It's been more than a week since I've last blogged and this is not the way I want it to happen, but I just finished my night styling class as I'm drafting this post down for a scheduled post! I signed up for another short creative course over at Central Tafe and this time, it's Fashion Styling and Accessorising. Thought I needed a little bit of a kick start if I plan to head down that career path in the future, and it is indeed an eye opening experience just to hear what the experienced stylists are telling you what they can! I guess I just need to start somewhere, and establish a brand for myself in order to put myself out there. On a side note, juggling between styling classes, CPA and work isn't easy but I would probably say that it all boils down to my[...]

Lady Gaga Concert x Versace

Months before the much anticipated Lady Gaga's concert, I've been cracking for ideas with Joy on what to wear. We've came up with: - buying police tapes from Bunnings and just wrap around myself under a black dress, - borrow Joy's paper lanterns and squeeze my arms through it as sleeves, I even bought a pink feather skirt when I'm broke but that's okay, I've consoled myself that it's worth it for the concert solely for the concert!! But alas, I sticked to my trusty ol' Versace for H&M dress because it's crazy and loud enough for Lady Gaga. And most important of all, it's long sleeves because I'm such a wuss when it comes to the cold. Bleaghhh. I didn't think that the idea of seeing Lady Gaga had sink into my head then. Speaking of which, it was such a difficult t[...]

Modern Classic

The shortest day of the year has been long gone but it's still freezing on certain days though we're gradually moving into Spring. I'm waiting impatiently for the sun to stay longer during the days now, so I don't have to rely on tights to keep my legs warm every time i wear a skirt out! But then again, I clearly remembered how I was longing for winter last year, just so I could put this soft faux fur coat on and stroke myself every second. As I was saying in the last few post that I was a big fan of dalmatian spots and probably still am, this has to be one of the items that's most closely related to the movie character, Cruella De Vil. :razz: But of course, I'm far different from her context of love for dalmatian prints! :roll: I think going to Toast is becoming one of my re[...]

Wallflower

No idea why but when I first saw this pair of yummies, it reminded me of Isabel Marant's zora leather lacquer-wedge sandals instantly. Though it's not exactly similar in every way, though that would be a total rip off but I love how it adds a few inches of height without sacrificing the ease to walk in it. Always on the look out for statement shoes, I forgot how easy it was to settle with pieces that are less attention seeking. I had wanted to buy the same pair in a gold one but it was sold out fortunately (I guess) which led me to this minty shade instead. Venturing into pastels in a few different colours, I've decided to keep it within the cooler hues to keep the outfit soft. Amazingly, I've found a wall when I was walking past a back alley and it reflected the c[...]
