OOTD: sunflower walk


I wanted to use another bag, but I was in a mad rush that day, I didn't even have the time to pack my bag! Resulting in a lot of missing necessities, and finding my dog leash and poo bag in the bag. -.-


As you all can see, I seldom wear dresses, well, I used to wear them often. But now, I found new love in matching clothes. So why the sudden change of wardrobe again? I had a briefing that day, and dress is kinda a prerequisite during job briefing. First impression, people!





Fave picture of the post, though frankly speaking, I like none of them. 



Pardon the "veins", my hand was in a awkward position, my usual photographer wasn't with me, and the photographer for the day? She wasn't fantastic, thus.....

 Outfit:

DIY: add some colours to your accessories


I had a great haul shopping at shopwildwolves.
This spring, if you wanna add some colours to your accessories collection, I may have something for you here. (:


I saw this at asos, similar concept earrings here.


And I decided to.......DUPE IT. (With flash.)


(Without flash) The ring on the background is the ring from asos.


See the differences? I'm in love with my new set of rings.  
On nails: For audrey; Chinaglaze


From left to right, for audrey, lilacism, or 205, la girl, skinfood.



So how did I achieve this look? The answer to it is…… Nail polish! 

It’s really simple. The ring came in with dividers in place so there’s no trouble in the ratio of painting. Just paint one layer of nail polish in the colour that you fancy per portion. Its ok to let it overlap a lil, we’ll remove it later. Once all the colours are in, with the use of a cotton bud and nail polish remover(Sally Hansen), gently swab the dividers to let the gold show, it’ll really enhance the look. Once the touch ups are complete, use a clear nail polish to give it some shine and you are done! Easy right?

For the ring on the left, I used some sort of blue from skinfood, I can’t read Korean and thus can’t list the actual shade here. I also used the coral red from LA girls under the disco brites series. 

For the ring on the left, I used Lilacism from Essie, For Audrey from China Glaze, OR205 from thefaceshop. (:

OOTD: monday blues or monday greys?


This will be my favourite photo of the outfit. 


An up close shot of the collar. Imagine this look without the collar, wouldn't it be too boring?
To know more about the collar, you can view it here.

  


  





 A jacket for those who are afraid of the cold like me. (: 
It's actually studded at the side, to match my collar.



 





On toes, chinaglaze; secret peri-win-le. 



 If you would want some colours, you could add some bright coloured heels, for me, I think this brown heels would suffice.


 Awww, isn't this pretty? Love the ribbon, nope, this isn't one of my DIY project, I was too lazy, haha.


  

my poor legs, can someone tell me, how can I help make the veins less obvious? I don't think it's that bad, perhaps, it's the heels or just this photo, yeah, I keep telling myself that. Oh, and lookie, I like the little zip detail on this jeans.

Outfit:
Grey Heather long sleeve top (old); mayuki tokyo
Black studded jacket (old); mayuki tokyo
Charcoal jeans; a mod
Taupe heels from taiwan
Brown ribbon heels; xquisis
Leopard print belt
Watch(old); armani exchange
Peacock necklace; okibox

Well, this outfit didn't turn out exactly like how i would expect it to be, but still good I would say. Reason for the entire grey tone of this outfit is, it's a MONDAY! I was experiencing really bad Monday blues, well, you can also think of it as Monday greys. I was really tired, I had a 830am law class to attend, prior to that, I haven't been sleeping well and have been waking up as early as 6am for school and work and photoshoot and and.. You get my drift. ):

So, how did I make the grey concept work? Well, in my way, since, I'm not a fashion consultant or anywhere near that. What I did was, I match different shades of grey or similar colour family together. For starters, the top is a heather grey shade, followed by charcoal grey jeans and taupe heels. This pair of heels will be my number 1 most comfortable heels! In fact, it's more comfortable than some of my flats! Surprising right? In the past, I used to wonder, how others would claim that they have comfortable heels, when ALL of my heels hurts so bad. Now I know, well, it's just too bad that I bought this pair of heels at Taiwan. It's a bit on the high side for me. BUT if I knew that it's this comfortable, I would have bought all colours, not kidding here, it's that comfortable.

Okay, so back to the outfit, basically, I jazzed it up with the DIY collar I made, added in a belt to add some texture, and we are done! Easy right? Give it a shot yourself, you might find the right look to look the right mood. (:

Till then, X
