I’ve been looking for an oversized red blazer for the longest time, lucky me, I found this red blazer at ascentee. Lucky me, not! Turns out it is too oversized for me. Like a sad right? Thanks to its ginormous size, I had to cinch it with a belt for the outfit to be presentable. I forgo the usual colour pairings and opt for eccentric combinations instead. Turns out that neon green/yellow works pretty with chilli red. But as there’s a lot going on for the tops, I turned it down a notch with my bottoms, a neutral grey jeans with red shoes and bag to maintain the colour family. How do you ladies think? (:

This is yet another “makeup-less” day. Yupp, usually when I meet J, or goes Tampines Mall, I enjoy scaring people with my naked face. Okay, I kid. But yes, I try not to apply makeup when I’m going to somewhere that I’m very comfortable with. Namely, Tampines. Why? I spent four years there without any makeup, you probably guessed, secondary school! My pores are already super clogged as it is, so I’m trying my very best to not apply so much foundation and stuffs on my face. But you know, as girls, sometimes we just can’t help it but be vain.

It’s a day full of work and no play, talk about a boring life I lead. As I’m wearing a form fitting cheongsam (traditional Chinese ethnic costume) for my work, I’m not looking into flaunting my figure after work with any tight fitting clothes. I want to wear something baggy that can emphasize on my other attributes other than my slender figure. I created a dress illusion beneath my baggy top with a mixture of tank top and high waist skirt. One is for the overall outlook not to appear overly layered; another is just for the fun of it. All work and no play would make life oh-so-boring. So how is that? Were you tricked by my illusion as well?

Hurray! Today is…… work day. ): I was told today will be my last day working for this company. Therefore, I decided that it’s time to bend the rules a lil bit. I’ve already vision myself to be wearing this denim vest, so I skipped the usual dark denim shorts for this lighter shade to match it up. To not allow dullness in the outfit, a bright inner wear to create a pop is required. Toss in my dream catcher to get all the focus on my upper body and the outfit is born! Now onto accessories we go. I recently got my hands on the clubs ring, what better way to complement it then with my suits earrings right? Cliché but works pretty well, I would say. Since the only pop colour is green in my outfit, I can’t have my accessories go astray; the green in my bracelet is too attractive to resist and the green in the clock to show the colours off. That’s what I’ve done for the outfit today. Not too shabby I hope? (:

OOTD: summer breeze


this is my favourite picture!




















my second favourite.

Outfit:
Dress;mws
Gold choker
Brown ribbon heels; xquisis

Hype this at lookbook.nu and chictopia.




This is one of my most educating photo-shoot ever. Learnt so much from Anson. If you live in Singapore, and would like to do some photo-shoot, you can mail him at info@ansonchew.com, or go to his website: http://www.ansonchew.com/, I'm not sure of his charges, you would have to discuss the fees with him, a good photographer comes with a price. (:

I love, love, love, asymmetric skirts, long cardigans. But they are always too expensive for me. ): This is one of my asymmetric skirts, well, I only have three at the moment.

I added a gold choker to bring a "pop" to the outfit. Reason for the brown shoes is because, I feel the ribbons at the back makes it ladylike, which helps blend the outfit. Makes it looks, more graceful (for the lack of better word) if you know what I mean. So what do you think?

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
