Vintage T-shirt Obsession

I want all of these and more from 80sTees!


Another Blondie tee perhaps? This one says "one way or another" at the back!

This one cracks me up, tee hee!
Batman is a hundred times better than Superman.
Because he's super rich and he has a utility belt, hello.

Muppets! Less annoying than Sesame Street!
And because I like this shade of purple.

Everybody loves Donatello! Right?
Actually I can't distinguish one turtle to the next but I do remember liking the one with the red eye mask thingy.
Anyway, nice print.

Ugly Betty! I don't watch every episode but I do know I like him a lot, whoever he is.


Awwww.... just slap me.

Gotta have one in every colour!

I notice a lot of people getting those Mr Men and Little Miss series.

Don't know what all the hype is for. It's cute, but not that fascinating.

Blondie referencing is fun.

I'll tell you why I love best friends.

One way or another they're gonna getcha, they're gonna getcha getcha getcha getcha...

"CALL ME! On the line! Call me! Call me Any anytime!"

Getcha' the stuff you've been "Dreaming" of, that is.

Just because!

And now I think I'm now addicted to Junkfood tees. It makes me want to, uh, "touch myself".

"Now I'm always touched by your presence, dear."
:)

Till, my next band tshirt, LOVE.

Korean fashion revived my Hoodie obsession

I've been looking at a lot of Korean fashion nowadays and I really love them. For one the models don't do that cutesy thingy that at certain times you just want to slap them for.

I don't know if its the Korean people or their ability to put together an outfit, but their photos simply ooze style. They have none of the extremities of Japanese fashion, and none of the straightforward, unfinished looks of Taiwan/Hong Kong.

Of course, I'm only judging Asian fashion based on what I've seen on the net so far and what is being sold there online. Still, I think my judgement is fair.

Hey, some may argue it's too conventional, but maybe that's what I love about it and I'm fine with that.

One more thing.





HOODIES!
*throws happy confetti in the air*
Tell me all the photos look freaking awesome.
I need need need need more hoodies!
Doesn't even matter the weather is stifling hot at the moment!

Threadless Summer Sale

I know I'm a little too late but Threadless is having their summer sale again! Tshirts at $10!

As always, these are my favourites.













You know what, I wouldn't call Threadless tshirts quirky anymore. They're just plain weird, and I love it like that.

CandyPulp

Quick post now, I have a couple of tests tomorrow that I have barely prepared for.

Anyway, I think I'm going to start featuring local online shops more often. Yes, I know, it's about time.

The thing is though, I don't just notice these sites for having great stuff, but also because I find they have a great business marketing model. But that's another post altogether isn't it.

Should I be a little worried that schoolwork has integrated itself into my fun time?

Anyway, I present to you Candypulp.

It's an online shop livejournal thing that sells mainly accessories that I'm not fascinated about and specially imported clothes.

They bring in great pieces in verrrry limited quantities from Hong Kong. Needless to say their pieces fly off the shelf. Seems as though everytime I check them out, they're sold out.

I love looking at their collection. They're obviously hand-picked, and are very good runway versions that won't make the wearer look like a trendwhore.

I love that every piece, and I do mean EVERY piece looks exclusive.

Another giant plus would be that the items they bring don't look cheap at all yet the prices are relatively affordable. I'm thinking I'd rather buy something from them than go down to the likes of Zara or Mango, hmph.

I should probably do a whole interview and research and all that journalist junk, but that would be letting more work integrate into fun time. HAH.

Speaking of work.

Colour Splash at Uniqlo

Yea ok, so not exactly designer [though I'm sure some would argue], but I really love this fashion editorial in Uniqlo's online newsletter.

It supposedly features active wear so it's all dynamic and fun yet gorgeous at the same time. It's sooooo full of crazy colours, LOVE it.



Hoody spot! I've gotta get me some of those short-sleeved hoodies! Next post!

Sort of fits my mood now. For some reason I'm feeling hyper - even my dad asked "why are you smiling to yourself so much?"

WHEE.

*Don't feel like dancing, dancing no sir no dancing today......*

Blouses are new love

I've never paid much attention to short-sleeved blouses. Probably because they remind me of a teacher I once had who always seemed to wear such blouses.

However my recent swimming trips have not only developed the muscles on my legs[i could seriously feel them after swimming for 2 hours!], but also my appreciation for those blouses.

They're short-sleeved so it neutralizes the formality the collar would have brought. They're so darn easy to get into and out of as well. Now being the sale season and all, you know that becomes quite an important issue :)

These are from Forever21:






From Taiwan auciton sites there's quite a few of these super pretty chiffon see-through blouses that I really, really, reallllllyyyyyyyy like.

You know what else, I kinda miss looking at designer wear. Next post perhaps?
