TwinkleTwinkleLittleStar

H&M mesh oversized shirt. Cotton On black slip. House Of Holland twinkle stockings. Vintage Gianfranco Ferre bag. Asos silhouette long necklace. Bowler hat from Taiwan.Gold watch from random vendor in HK. My own faux fox tail with leather straps and 6' crazy heels.

New tights in the house! Well, I'd say it's a good buy cause up close they are super cute, a perfect piece to incorporate the right amount of bling onto an outfit! Oh and did I mention, they are all sparkly gold stars. By just staring at them already made me happier... And if you look closely, I actually matched them with starry shoelaces that I used to lace up the boots for the cinch paper bag look ala Louis Vuitton Summer 2010 boots, *dreamy* one of my "Willing-kill-for" shoes, it was love at first sight when I first laid eyes on them, so my version is as good as it gets. Ciao, lovers! xxx

P.S. For those are are interested in the fox tail & shoes, do drop me an email at itsnotalwaysaboutheight@gmail.com for further inquiries... Cheers!

YouOweMeADance

Pull & Bear mustard top. Zara red leather skirt. Asos brown belt. Irregular Choice wedge. Gifted leather cuff. Necklace from ShoeShoeShoe. Vintage shades.

Since forever I've been searching for something in red leather, a leather jacket, short or long pants,(Btw, I'm still looking for a patent red leggings, do share if you come across something like that!) and to stumble upon this gorgeous real leather skirt, I knew I had to get it even if it's gonna put a rather huge dent to my wallet! Completely overpriced for Zara but evil them probably already know cuckoo people like myself will buy it anyhow.
And look what I have here... Proud to present you this vintage inspired shades ala John Lennon, I was so stoked when I saw these babies.. But honestly with only one pair of eyes, I don't know how am I gonna wear all these shades! Must be a girl thing cause we can never get enough of something, especially when it's this gooood. Super cute eh! O-O Haha! Alright lovers, I promise to come up with my blogshop soon, cause it must be frustrating to have to wait post by post to see what I have in store for you. Have a great week, ciao! xxx

P.S. For those are are interested in these round shades, do drop me an email at itsnotalwaysaboutheight@gmail.com for further inquiries. It comes in black and brown... Cheers!
P.P.S. I'm starting to realize why I unintentionally named my blog "I", cause I totally abuses the word 'I', in this post alone I think it came close to 20 'I's and trust me, I've been using it sparingly.

SeñorVinoTinto

Vila dress from Asos. Killer chunky heels. Hot pink socks from SoxWorld. Rings from Asos/F21. Bangles and bracelets from SH/Aldo/Topshop.

A quick post before I head out to run some errands. This was what I wore last Saturday to this nice little french restaurant with one the most amazing foie gras I've tasted since Paris, just the thought is making me drool.
So, this is the legen "wait for it....." dary (Hehe.. Much love to Barney) shoes I mentioned in my earlier post, they are 6" tall but surprisingly comfortable due to the platform! Seeing how I'm the kind of girl who either go all out or don't bother, it was love at first sight when I saw that awkward chuncky heels and hey.. who am I to say no to something that will make me 5'6.5 in a jiffy. While I am still trying to figure out how to work with all the HTML bulls*t( all that coding is driving me insane) for my blogshop, just drop me an email at itsnotalwaysaboutheight@gmail.com if you are interested in this pair of daredevil baby! I bought an extra! Alright lovers, have a wonderful weekend. Ciao! xxx

Hey lovers, I know I've been MIA and neglecting my blog, it was due to some health issues and random other things that came up but don't give up on me just yet. Well, I'm back and I will try to keep up with my blog posts. Anyhow, I still have plenty of new items to share with you lovers, I have more of these two tone shades made, some rounded vintage shades(think John Lennon), also a pair of 6' killer bootie(Think Marni's chunky platform heels), black with blue tip faux fur tail for bags or used as denim accessory, this is just a tiny part of my collection, so can't wait to officially set up my blogshop.

AsUncertaintyPrevails

*First of, I would like to apologize for the low quality pictures, it was taken indoor and there obviously wasn't enough light*

Herve Leger dress. Bag from Club Monaco. Bracelets from Aldo. Necklace & Rings from Asos. Aldo heels.

Hey lovers, I apologize for the lack of post because over the weekends I spent some quality time in Singapore with my dearest family (which is obvious if you have my Twitter) which was blissful and exactly what we needed. The news of Japan's nuclear meltdown should be a wake up call for everyone, due to the uncertainty of life we should remind ourselves to love and appreciate our loved ones now more than ever.
So, this is my new hair color, by all means it's a little blah but my hair could no longer withstand another bleaching process so I had to resort to this, it is pretty interesting under broad daylight, the color resembles a feather duster. Haha! Alright lovers, hopefully I can get a better tan(I am slightly tanner in these pics, damn the bad lighting) over the weekend, me and the dearest family is checking into a suite! Couldn't love them more.. The anticipation is killing me! Ciao..! xxx

Just a little something to share.
Life is short.
Forgive quickly.
Kiss slowly.
Love truly.
Laugh uncontrollably.
And never regret anything that made you smile
.

P.S. I bought many new items to share with you lovers, so check back for more statement pieces that might interests you. This fur tail is also for sale, drop me a mail me at itsnotalwaysaboutheight@gmail.com if you're interested. Thanks!

Greeting my lovelies! Miss me much? I'm feeling fresher than ever hence the need to post my close-to-bare face(only tinted sunblock and eye brow pencil, true story) to start off "I" one year old, I usually use quite a bit of make up but I thought meh.. Why not try something different this time, scary? Hahaha! So, over the weekend to celebrate baby blog's birthday, me and my beloved photographer aka boyfriend (huge XOXOs to him, cause without him, this blog wouldn't happen) treated our self to 2 bottles of red wine and shared 3 portion of steaks! Crazy! I know.. But it was all worthwhile.
The giveaway ended today and the lucky winner is Ria, who has amazing style and I can't wait to see her rock that accessory! As for the rest of the participants, don't loose hope cause I will have more giveaways coming up! Thanks for all the comments, glad to know that my relentless outfit posts aren't boring or scaring you away! For one final time, I really am grateful to you guys for making my blog mean something!

ThankYou


In merely 3 days(or 4 depending on where you are from) my baby, "I" is gonna turn 1. So, this is the DIY piece I've mentioned earlier, it's a give-away to show my appreciation for all the kind support and comments I have received over the year (To those who are confused,just backtrack a couple of posts and you'll understand this give-away better).
So this is the prototype, as you can see in the first picture, I used a long white feather on one end and two shorter black & red ones on the other(I'm tacky that way) whereas the long orange and shorter light brown are other options for you to choose from if you would prefer to replace the colors. This is a very special moment for me therefore I will try my very best to make this giveaway super special for you too!
From the GIF you can see the 6 different ways to wear this, most are pretty much self-explanatory except one, it's this hairtie thing a la gorgeous Karen in this post
of hers. Which my pixie cut won't allow, so I had to improvise! =)

Now, let the fun begin. Step 1) Follow and say Hi to me on Twitter! 2)Leave a comment below telling me if you are sick of outfit posts? If so, what more would you like to see on my blog. Comprende? Contest ends after the birthday! Remember to leave your name and email address at the end! Good luck! xxx

*************************************
Giveaway ended on 8th March 2011.
Don't loose hope lovers, stay tuned for more giveaway in the near future! Thank you for participating!

Congratulations, Ria! You will hear from me shortly! I'm very sure you will rock this accessory well!

**There are only 7 participants, I start counting after Desiree since she isn't entering.

DayTwo

Thrifted knits. Topshop high-waisted leggings. Senso sage boots. F21 bowler hat. Asos Faux saber tooth necklace. Chain necklace from KL. Rings from F21/Asos.

Good news for you and myself, I finally finished making the accessory(phew) and I promise to post pictures soon! I found 6 different ways to wear them, as a short necklace, super long necklace, headband, hip belt, denim accessory or even as a hair tie! I hope you are as excited as I am now cause obviously the sky is the limit for this thing, what should we call it, "Fleather wonders"? Haha!
So this bowler hat is a new member to my hat collection, for some reason my face looks 10xs bigger with it on and someone actually said that I look ill and bold! Am I wearing it wrong or is it just not for my face shape? Help! xxx
