StrangeEncounter

CottonOn bralette, altered to fit. Floral shorts from a gazillion years ago, found it under a pile of dirty old junk. Jacket and belt "stolen" from brother. JC Clinic shoe. Bracelets & bangles from Shanghai/thrifted/HK/Topshop. Rings from F21/Beijing.

When I had these pictures taken, I had one of my strangest encounter, it is by far my scariest photo shoot experience. At the beginning it was still ok, however if you notice on the last few pictures, I am only face towards my right. Cause half way through the shoot, this scary freak of nature pulled up to observe what we were doing, which was alright cause I have had my fair share of weird and curious glances. But no, he started laughing to me, not in the "I think she is weird" way, but it was more of creepy sleazy way! It may not sound scary now, but believe me.. Everytime I looked his way, I could feel him raping me with those scary eyes. It still gives me the creep to think of it now! Worst part is, I really like that place, but now I am afraid to go back. =( Maybe next time, I should go back with a baseball bat! Do share with me how have u dealt with people like that?

So this is my 2nd outfit, now I'm only wearing my brother's stuff and the pants belong to my second sisters back back in her teens, I think it's pretty neat, don't you think? I cinched the oversized pant to create the paper bag high waist and I cuffed the pants cause it was too long. Have a great weekend! xxx

ItWasntMe

Mum's blouse worn as dress. Brother's belt. Use to be mum's Bally bag, now mine. Uniqlo socks. Topshop heels. Boater hat from Taiwan.
Bracelets and bangles from HK/Shanghai/Topshop/Thrifted. Rings from F21/Beijing.

There are times when I get sick from looking at the same pile of clothes, so boring that they're no longer inspiring. So last weekend I decided to raid my mum's and brother's wardrobe instead and it was a lot of fun playing with new clothes that aren't the right sizes,so I managed to put together 2 outfits, this is one and the other will be on my next post. So stay tune. Now go raid your mum, dad, brother or boyfriends wardrobe... They might surprise you! xxx

I♥Barcelona

Bettie Page, all time favorite pin up girl.

T-shirt from random street vendor in (Duh!) Barcelona. Skirt from HajiLane-SG. Friend's bandana as headband. Brother's belt.
Vivienne Westwood Anglomania + Melissa shoes. Rings from F21 & Beijing. Bangles from thrifted/KL/H&M.

So, how did a simple post to show my awesome tee evolve to an outfit that is somewhat inspired by 50s pin up girls. I really don't know, I guess I just let my creativity run a little wild sometimes, obviously it channeled my inner pin up child.
So, after catching up on all my beloved bloggers, reading posts after posts of summer vacations made me really misses my euro trip, especially Spain. I miss Gaudi's work alot, so very inspiring, the cheap tapas(I'm always a tapas girl, I like tasting different food in one meal), beer anytime of the day(which I also do here sometimes but sipping beer in a cafe under the sun with cold breeze are just so much better), siesta(need my piggie time), fiestas(Oh.. all that bar hopping), paella on the beach(which I call my hangover food!), and the list goes on and on! ARGH! Need holiday to Spain, STAT!

LightAsFeather

The very beautiful 13 years old Tuuli of Fallie's Scrapbook.
Recently I stumbled upon a wonderful shop that sell feathers of all colors, shapes and sizes. Triggering my long forgotten/neglected DIY wormies, even better *light bulb* I can even sell them to those who are equally obsessed with feathers as I am! So as you can see, I have been searching high and low and found some pretty amazing feather accessories, so stay tuned for more of my feather projects to come! Do check out my first tri-feather earring as shown below, whatcha waiting for? Drop me a mail to place an order now!

Note: All money made, will go to "Help Mel the poor soul feed off her shoe addiction" foundation. Thanks! xxx

RuffleMyRedFeathers

Topshop Maxi dress. Cotton On bralette,altered to fit. Aldo wedges. DIY feather earrings. Bangles and cuff from gifted/random store in KL/thrifted/Topshop.

So here is the debut of my DIY feather earring which I have mentioned earlier on Twitter. Not to brag but they are pretty amazing aren't they? I can already see myself wearing them on my lazy days with a white Tee and cut-off, it will help take a plain outfit up a notch.
So, this poor soul is in need of more dough to feed off her shoe addiction. I will now start selling them to only serious fashionistas and because this is all so new to me, just leave me a mail or twit me with any inquiries and we shall proceed from there. You can also make requests for the color or length that suits you best. I am planning to give you the option of either 2 or 3 feathers depending on how dramatic you want it to be. xxx

P.S. I promise to try my best to ship this internationally. Anyhow, just leave me a mail and it can be arranged.

H&M top and jacket. Guess pants. Aldo boots. DIY cross earring and leather fingerless glove. F21 rings.

I have always been in love with Balmain SS10, I mean, who hasn't?? So after seeing Denni in her Balmania post here. I just had to recreate my own version, seeing I will never ever own one of their amazing jacket. I'm happily settling on this H&M, my Balmain wannabe. However, now I am looking for a great pair of red leather pants, as seen in Balmain fw10 collection, those are just, may I just say "Oh My Gawd"! Think I'm exaggerating, go have a look at my twitter, I'll post a picture there. Now to all my lovers, have a great weekend! xxx

GoGetYourFreakOn

Cotton On bodysuit. Shorts from random market. Topman shirt. Glasses and shoes from Taiwan. DIY headband. Bangles from H&M/thrifted/random store in KL.

This is what I wore on movie night with my family. We watched it's so FLUFFY!! Alright, it's "Despicable Me" and may I say Oh my gawd, that baby girl is dangerously adorable, she can melt your heart! So cute, you can die! It's a must-see if you are up for some laughs.
So I'm trying something very weird here(to most, I suppose), it's a leotard that fits me! See me, see Nacho Libre? Si? Well, the headband is actually the leftovers from a maxi dress I had altered to fit. I think it's makes a pretty awesome headband. Gonna have more DIYs coming, bought some of feathers recently and I'm thinking hippie headbands and earring.So stay tune! xxx


P.S. Recently I've been caught up in the whole JC Lita craze, so I caved and ordered myself a pair! Now I'll just have to mark my calendar and anxiously wait for them to arrive!
