Peace Please


The Cult of Nine camo t-shirt, Maximum faux leather overalls, Urban Beanie beanie, Jeffrey Campbell shoes 

Can't seem to tire of the dungaree trend yet, especially when they are in a black leather version which technically has my name all over it. I was particularly lusting over Phillip Lim's, detesting the fact that it is so exclusive you can't get it easily, let alone having the budget to splurge on investment products. By chance, I found a local label, Maximum, retailing a leather look dungaree that is so affordable it won't burn the pockets, but still satisfying my sartorial craving towards the piece. I was soaking in glory and basically sold at first glance. By the way, it would be so awesome if you guys can help me out by filling this questionnaire for my project. Your help is much appreciated, thanks!

Fade Away


Feist white shirt worn underneath, H&M peplum top, Zara jeans, Oneandahalf faux leather vest, Maison Martin Margiela for H&M heels, Chanel classic flap bag

I always have a soft spot for peplums, not to mention peplums with a dash of assymetrical which just puts my other peplums to shame. Thought I'd took a slightly more laid-back approach by infusing denim into the whole ensemble, though never have I envisioned that I would wear something I despised so much of, in this case, skinny jeans. Consider myself as an avid fan of denim, the uncommon two-toned feature of the piece makes it so contagious, and I just had to make a visit to the fitting room. I was slightly bewildered at how they fit perfectly like gloves, that they are surpassingly so comfortable I swear I can live in them. I would proudly say I feel much more refreshed stepping out of my comfort zone.

Territorial Pissings


Monstore t-shirt, Petite Cupcakes skirt, Uniqlo flannel shirt, Lowrys Farm bomber jacket, Jeffrey Campbell shoes

You might be noticing that I am making as much use of the pieces I currently have. Rummaged through my whole wardrobe, reliving bygone pieces, such as this skirt which I bought ages ago for my high school graduation ceremony. The sight of the escalating mess of clothes is getting too repulsive and I am currently trying as much as I can to steer away from being labelled a trend whore. Rather than splurging on spanking new items which might probably be used only once or twice (and get your pockets burn, obviously), with classics and basics, outfit combinations are pretty much endless, and with black and white there comes so much freedom. A black & white concoction sometimes speak more than hues and shades; nothing too fancy, but bold enough to make a statement. I hope I can hold on to this and not harass my credit card as frequently as before. Bisous!
