I really like Leather Jackets

You know, I prefer my leather jackets only two ways: the classic biker, or the corny red Michael Jackson version - that's right, bling and all.

Marc by Marc Jacobs AW '08

It's gone soft, brilliant.
I'm very taken by it's silhoutte [or lack of it], adorable bubble sleeves and quirky collar.

Too bad I don't think I'll find a good-enough knock off.

I need to figure out how to get on some sort of mailing list or something, I only found out late last night via email from one of the online shops that's going to be there.

Shame I'm so broke [boss too busy and forgot all about payday], because I was planning to get underwater toy cameras.

A flea market is a flea market is a freaking flea market. STOP glamorizing it. Tsks.

Life in Cartoon Motion

I was a pissy little missy the past couple of days and I finally sobered up to wear non-black.

Purple/green V-neck, yellow skirt, black stockings, black maryjane pumps, wire aviators.

Skirt I forgot all about that I got from a flea market. The seller said it was vintage but then again at that point of time anything and everything was vintage.
I love it for it's muted neon - if that even makes sense.

The lens-less aviators were really fun to wear.

But it's about time I get lenses fixed into them.
My home glasses are missing and I'm wearing my going-out glasses instead.
I can't survive on only one pair of glasses.

Nikicio lets me have everything

I did a double flip when Style Bubble featured Indonesia-based Nikicio.
Very simple reasons:

1) Maxi dresses with unconventional pocketing.
POCKETS!@#$%*%!

2) Blazers that I am absolutely smitten with.
I had a previous predicament whereby I couldn't decide between oversized or tailored.
BOTH, duh.

I don't even need to see this particular unusually cut blazer in its entirety to know I have to have it.

Just for the record, however:

I know I'm sold.

Red, Green and Dark Denim.

All sorts of inspired.

The Sartorialist says she's Julie.
I say the green jacket, please and thank you.

Fucking cramps.
I don't understand why women subject themself to pink pills very month.

The Purple Satin Dress and the Green Pumps

Bollocks, I see so many sprees for chiffon-y [or whatever the cheap chiffon is called] dresses and it pisses me off. Ah well, I'll stave off chiffon for a while.

Speaking of all things trend-whorish, wearing an all-satin ensemble is not hot. Satin is very last few seasons ago, hence donning solely satin [be it in dress form or two-piece] tends to come off fashion-victimish.

Grey knit hoodie sweater, purple satin dress, green heels, hoops.

Whoops.
Ah well, never said I followed my own advice.

But the purple is gorgeous, and it has pockets! POCKETS!

I know, I'm such a granny, but I love my pockets in my dresses.
Then I can keep loose change and stuff. Goodness, I am a granny!

Yeeaaah well, this granny rocks DIY hair colouring.
Honestly I think I'm becoming an expert hair colourer-errer.

Frugality teaches you so.

Mommy Clothes

Black cardigan, vintage dress, gladiator sandals, white hoops.

The dress is a hand-me-down from my mom :)

It was much longer before I had it tailored - mid calf, like most dresses were 2 decades ago. My mom had more but she threw them all away, such a pity.

Thank goodness she missed one.

And yes, I do have other shoes besides my gladiator sandals, hmmmpph.

I love its print, subtle soft colours and the slightly raised neck.
Hoop earrings are forever.

Hmm. Maybe I should do a raid/steal-mom's-closet week or something.

I just came back from late-night driving! Driving is damn fun... when there're no cars on the road -_-.

I love that it feels like a Sunday today.
Hope you had a Good Friday.
