This weekend I found the pair of perfect jeans.
What I wore on Saturday.
Top: Club Marc, Shorts, shoes, fringed sash: Mphosis, Bag: Charles & Keith, Necklace: Topshop, Watch: The bf's because I misplaced mine
That's when I found the pair of perfect jeans. If you must know, I haven't worn a pair of jeans for at least a year or two. They're either too long for me, not skinny enough (skinny jeans are my kind of thing) or I always feel that I look like a midget in them.
Tank: F21, Lace corset: Cotton On Body, Jeans: Topshop, Necklace: Mphosis, Shoes: Steve Madden, Bag: Mango, Fedora: Cotton On
The photographs just don't do justice! That pair of jeans is just too awesome for words. :D Oh, and check out my new necklace buy from Mphosis at 70% off!

After-work retail therapy.
Yesterday marked the end of my temp job as a sales associate (aka salesgirl) at Robs, so retail therapy was necessary after working hard (for 20 days, haha).
Men's shirt: Alex Cross, Outerwear: Garcon L'amie, Bag: Mango, Shoes: Mphosis
I bought a dress from Zara, a clutch from Dorothy Perkins at SGD19, a pullover from Topshop at SGD29 at such a steal due to end-season sales. Next up, GSS!

What I'd Wear Today III
Polka dot dress: Unknown brand, mum's hand-me-downs, Braided belt: G2000, Outerwear: Cotton on, Necklace: Topshop, Shoes: Local boutique
Ps: (Puny) Closet tour soon!
Feature.
Finally.
If you do follow my blog, you'd have known that I've wanted a corset for a long time. The corset seen in Nasty Gal got me hooked ever since. And so when I chanced upon this mid-riff corset from Cotton On Body (and they seemed to be made for my barely-there breasts), I knew I had to get it. You see, I don't care if I don't have the "package", it doesn't matter as long as I'm happy. (:
Singapore Flyer date.
I didn't want to post this because it's a boring outfit but then again I thought, why not? I wore this on a Singapore Flyer date with a girlfriend last month.
Want.
Off-day.
Top: Brandless, Inner black shorts: Mphosis, Bracelet: Pull & bear, random cart store, Shoes: Steve Madden
So I went out, had a haircut, and had an early dinner with the boyfriend today. Anything for a chance to dress up!
Ps: Just finished watching the final episode of Gossip Girl season 2, CHUCK AND BLAIR YES.
Thank you!
I received this award from Sylvia some time ago. Thank you so much dear! (:

14 more days!
Necklace from topshop, Bag from charles & keith, scarf as sash from f21.
This was what I wore the day before I started work. Just a casual day out to the heartlands. I'm seriously in need of retail therapy.
A night to remember.
So as mentioned earlier, I attended the Vivienne Westwood Anglomania A/W 09/10 show, the closing show of Singapore's Audi Fashion Festival. I was very fortunate to be able to be seated close to the stage where I can really see the models clearly from head to toe.
As the show progressed, six themes transited one after another, but all with the same motif - demented dolls run loose. The MAC make-up team dolled the models up in deep black eyeliner, lipstick that screamed red red red!, and they definitely piled on a whole lot of foundation to create those creepy white faces. Think Batman's Joker. And those messy pouf 'asylum-ic' hair! Throughout the show, the influence of the british punk rock era was evident, very Vivienne Westwood.
The six themes were as follows - girlie British punk rock; I fell in love with a poncho in colors of the British flag. Next up, Vivienne Westwood's signature British punk rock fashion takes a more hardcore turn with a tinge of goth. Then, the show transited to a softer and more serious tone. There were a fair number of greys, a staple color for colder days I must say, and pants were tucked into buckled pumps. Which reminds me, the shoes! 99% of the models were wearing the Vivienne Westwood Anglomania Melissa shoes in various interesting colors like cobalt blue, nude, grey, scarlet and brown. I'd love to own all of them! It reminds me of the Chloe buckled heels that was all-the-rage some time back sans the heels.
The runway went crazy with prints when the last model in grey exited. Think prints galore, prints were all over, top to bottom and surprisingly not out of place. It'll take courage and real poise to wear those outfits on the street and not be scrutinized by people though!
Following that, goth returns with a vengeance. An accessory that caught my attention was a necklace that is made up of giant safety pins linked together. A big no-no for me was this huge metal hand form 'thing' resting on the lower shoulders of the model's top.
Finally, razzle dazzle takes center-stage as models strutted down the runway in sparkly glitter and sequin numbers. Reminds me of a collection by another designer back in 2007 though. But whatever it is, Vivienne Westwood is still amazing. But that outfit with that neck brace is just too over the top. Neck brace as a fashion accessory, really?
Video taken by me.
Vivienne Westwood was awarded the prestigious Audi International Fashion Award and this officially marks the end of the very first Audi Fashion Festival in Singapore. I am bummed that I couldn't attend all the shows, especially Marc Jacobs. But they always say that the closing show is always the best, right? :D
Oh those shoes!
AFW Vivienne Westwood A/W 09/10 Anglomania Closing Show.
In a blink of an eye, Audi Fashion Week has ended. I attended the closing show of the festival, the Vivienne Westwood A/W 09/10 Anglomania Show. Vivienne Westwood is totally working it. Will update with videos about the show as soon as I have the time! Stay tuned!
The Model as Muse: Costume Institute Gala 2009
My picks:
Heidi Klum
I wish she had more jeweleries on though, like a necklace or something.
Claudia Schiffer
Kate Bosworth
Hot hot hot!

What I Would Wear Today...
if I didn't have to work, that is. I started working yesterday and my feet are totally aching from all the standing and walking around! But having nice colleagues made working much better. So anyway, this is what I would wear today if I'm not decked out in a pair of black pants, black polo and pumps every day since yesterday until the 27th. =/
Lace top from Mango, Shoes from DMK.
Same lace top, same skirt, same belt, but a different jacket and shoes. Compared with the previous outfit, I prefer this better because of that red jacket. It kind of brightened the whole outfit out.

I got accepted into the Fashion Communication Program in a local arts school! And the good news is, I only need to undergo a 3-year study instead of a 4-year study without the need for foundation year. Imagine the amount of money I save! 17k a year is no joke. My mum wants me to wait for the other universities acceptance replies though, so we'll wait and see. But for now, I'm happy. (:
Thrifted jacket from mango, Inner zebra print tank from zara, Pants from Mphosis, Bag from charles & keith, Cross necklace from diva
This was what I wore during the interview day. The bag is a new buy, it's uber big but I'm in love with it!
