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 [...]

Going Ga-Ga Over Owls

Recently I’d developed a crush on owls - I know they are birds of prey, but in print/accessories form, they are just incredibly cute!
So I was surfing around, not really with my mind on owls, when I came across this print:

Party of Nine is actually a Giclee print (does anyone know what this means?) of [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

The Penguin Dress

Okay, I know I’m lagging way behind, considering this is from Episode 12 of the first season of Gossip Girl. Still, I think better late than never!

The tuxedo bib-dress that Blair is wearing is the closest (so far) to my idea of the perfect dress. The cut, the length, the sleeves, the ribbon on the [...]

Rhiannon of Liebemarlene

When a girl has her own online vintage store, she’ll usually be wearing some pretty nice stuff herself as well
An excellent example will be Rumi of Fashion Toast. Her blog and personal style is the best advertising tool for her online vintage store Treasure Chest Vintage.
I am thrilled to have uncovered yet another [...]

Uniqlo Again

Somehow we’d been writing so much about Uniqlo nowadays - there’s risk of an over-hype, but we shall see how they fare locally when they finally make their way to our lovely shores
The latest hoo-ha is the launch of the Alexander Wang capsule collection for the Basics Paradise.

I’ll love to wear all the [...]

Of Ponies and… Zebras?!

Fashion 156 is having their Print Issue, which is great for me because I love prints!
I was clicking through their Must Have section, I came across this dress - and fell in love!

(Emma Cook for TopShop)
What an unlikely print! While Zebra print is not new at all (I myself own a pair of [...]

Harajuku Dolls

I am somewhat of an easy target for advertisers - package anything well enough and I’ll be completely sold. So I won’t be what you call a ‘practical’ girl, but at least I give prettiness/cuteness their due!
That’s why frankly my top concern regarding these Harajuku Girls perfumes is not how they actually smell. Not when [...]
