sneak up on you

suddenly, i've developed this fascination for sneakers. it started off with chancing upon keds on a blog, then buying a pair of red keds, then cool hk hairdressers and now i'm perpetually on the lookout for cool sneakers. i'm still debating to get some converses butttt, nah, it just seems so common place; although i did see this girl rocking a pair of really beat up and worn converses which made me quite a convert, except, you can't buy converses ready beat up! 

I particularly like the last pair by evisu although knowing evisu, its probably some ridiculous price. still the zips, the black and white, the cool velcro strap at the bottom. yummy! too bad it was only on display for the yet-to-be-completed ion mall so there was no way of checking the price.

h&m

To the left is my newest dress; a complete steal from h&m at half price! Its the first time I've worn such a long dress to be honest but I love the feel of it. It feels so completely liberating and swishy; possibly because of the oversize (its size 42!). This entire outfit somewhat reminds me of something nicolerichie//rachelzoe would wear, especially with the chanel bag. 

To the right is just a really cheap dress I bought in Hong Kong with the coolest scarf from the men's section in h&m. I always make it a point to check out mens' sections of unisex clothes. Usually you can find really randomly cool stuff; plus with asian guys so skinny, its usually pretty wearable. Why get the girl's version of mens' clothes for a premium when you can just get the legit menswear?!

I just bought this pair of amazing dropcrotch pants from zara, it looks like work-pants except for the drop crotch. mmm exciting stuff

boots

tough ass kicking boots. both gorgeous in their own way and both devastatingly unattainable

so everybody has been all over this photo shoot ages ago but i'm still in love with it; graffitti leggings, leather leggings, print leggings, zipped leggings; sequins, fingerless gloves, mussed hair, and shoes with looks that could kill. and of course, my fav model sasha. whats not to love?

tsumori chisato ss09

its all in the details..

its like galliano with a distinctly softer more whimsy girly touch. i love how her pieces are all so 'busy' yet still very pulled together and refined. prints, fabrics, translucence, structure, colour, she makes it All . Work . Overtime.


makes me wish i had some fancy event to go to;

that way i would have a quasi-legitimate excuse to buy her pieces; the last dress in particular is just making my knees go weak; truly, wearable works of art

this makes me wish i had a proper apartment/room to decorate.
in time, in time

nicole x studded denim

nicole richie is looking way better lately and harlow winter kate madden (yes, thats all one name, indecisive parents much?) is such a cutie i want to babynap her and her fleece-lined shoes! 

but as cute as harlowwinterkatemadden is, what i really want to steal is ms richie's studded jeans

here are the problems \\

problem 1 \ shes in the states and i'm in hongkong \\ tiny distance

problem 2 \ its a crime \\  tchtch, minor detail

but this is the major disincentive

problem 3 \ even if i did steal her jeans, theres no way i'd fit 

i'm thinking DIY...

Balenciaga ss09

its almost like being caught in your star-trek intergalactic suit with your pants half way down

Nasty Girl Vintage

Am lusting so badly after this, rose pink layers of sheer flapper style, and best of all its only $68!

Jenny Humphrey's Christmas

Ballerina-meets-hipster, add a ton of black eyeliner and a pair of black tights to the mess, muss up your hair ,and you're good to go.

Sale! - and a warehouse one at that!

For all ye interested and in Hong Kong (the land of no sales tax!), Dior warehouse sale! mmmm

(irony of everything especially given the last post!)

Financial crisis

So we don't need to read another newspaper article on how the economy is dying, 

but, all things in perspective,

"buying stuff on sale, does not equate to saving" 

(tell me that before I buy a HKD450 scarf (and it wasn't even on sale))

celestial signs

Complete naff but I hope you caught the smiling moon last night! (: And just fyi, the 2 "eyes" are apparently venus and jupiter!

unhealthy tabbing
