Marc & Elodie

Adrian C of Fashion Verbatim very aptly wondered if anyone has ever questioned Marc Jacobs’ godliness.
Well, he has to be a god of some kind. If anyone other than him sports a tattoo of a cartoon character, I will think they look completely daft. But Marc Jacobs with his Spongebob Squarepants tattoo - its quirky [...]

Cute Japanese Cosmetics

The Boyfriend is currently in Japan on vacation with his bachelor mates. I thought about tagging along, but I would have stuck out like a sore thumb. With Stephie still in Europe, I feel a little left behind this few days. But there’s a silver lining to every dark cloud, and in this case, it’ll [...]

Dior: Starting the Resort Season

With Dior unveiling its Resort 2009 collection, Resort season has officially begun! Actually, I’m still a little confused about exactly when Resort season starts…
The ethnic-inspired pieces in the Dior collection didn’t really appeal to me, but I love, love, love the full, swishy tiered skirts, which is one of the main themes.

What I don’t get [...]

A Floral Spring in Paris

My train’s going off in three hours, but I do have time to share some outfit pictures in Paris - the City of Lights or the Capital of Style, if you like. Also my favourite city in the world!
I’ve spent more time sitting in cafes and browsing boutique stores like Colette this vacation as compared to last year [...]

May Giveaway: HOARDing the Good Stuff!

Somehow, the old has become the new new and vintage has never been hotter. While once our mothers would have frowned upon wearing someone’s old threads, we embrace pre-loved clothings. Thrifting has evolved into passionate pursuit for many, and we’re no longer afraid to get our hands dirty in search of that perfect vintage dress [...]

Blogger Alert: The Fish Tank

My list of fashion blogs to read on my Google Reader is constantly expanding, so much so that I often find myself with a hundred plus posts to flip through after just one day. Not that I’m complaining of course
Despite this potential backlog of fashion reading, I’m still always on the look out [...]

Desperately Seeking a Top Hat

This is getting repetitive, but I really want one. I’m more or less feeling angry that I didn’t buy the SGD70 one I saw at Topshop, but I did not expect a top hat to be so hard to obtain. Granted, I didn’t try eBay, but I’ll try my luck overseas before I turn to [...]

Let’s Rock ‘em Chucks

I’ve always wanted a pair of Chuck Taylors in my wardrobe to play with - the last I had a pair was ten years ago, a black basic pair which my fastidious Mother put in the wash. It ended up very washed out and looking tie dyed brown-on-black, so I threw that pair out.
In a [...]

NDEUR: Graphic Designs + Leather Shoes

Customizing limited edition sneakers with graphic designs is nothing new. Often in collaboration with cult names in the graphic art scene, sports brands (most notably Adidas) have churned out highly covetable collectibles and many have clamored to own them. The addition of unique designs and patterns have revolutionized the humble sneakers.
I’d always thought that sneakers [...]

Zoemou

As you can see from our outfit photos, I’m not exactly an accessories kind of girl. My obsession with fashion aside, on a daily basis, I’m mostly a pick-dress-pick-shoes kind of girl And that is already quite a chore on some mornings, when I stand in front of my wardrobe trying to figure out [...]
