Balik kampung

The title means going home in Malay.
I'm packing and cleaning like a mad woman at the moment, going home in 2 days time :D! Haven't been back for 1 year ++, can't wait to see all the familiar faces!
My iphone is such a lifesaver, I don't have a camera at the moment so I can only use it to take photos, I'll probably nab a camera from my dad when I go back.

The Poet of Black


                                Yohji Yamamoto: The poet of black from Victoria and Albert Museum on Vimeo.

Legendary Yohji Yamamoto talks about his views on fashion including why he prefers to design womenswear over menswear. This interview gives the audience an idea of the shape of his personality and way of thinking.

Yohji Yamamoto to me is not only a fashion designer, but also a philosopher with a rock star attitude. He is a very intelligent and humble man that has a devil may care attitude towards some people's definition of success such  as owning a private jet or living in a mansion.


Sorry for my lack of words, exams and essays last week ate my writing ability hahaha. I should be posting more frequently  in the very near future ^^.

Front row shop

I came across front row shop from the lovely Fabliha's blog. And I must say wow! I totally dig their style and the price tag that won't break the bank. I mean balenciaga-esque sweater for $45 and a totally cool leather skirt for $28? Yes yes yes! Below are few items that tickle my fancy. 
While I obsessively typed the shop name in google, its taobao store popped up and I saw this skirt that's unfortunately not available on the international site. Harassed customer service by demanding  asking if the skirt can be purchased. Either that works or I shall have to get this baby via a representative since taobao does not ship internationally. 
Seriously guys check this store out *_*

Oh My Dahlia

Oh my cat-obsessed heart, how it stings me when I saw this outfit. A skater skirt is a staple piece in my wardrobe, so naturally a staple piece + cat print = hells yeah! I'd be really really happy if I win this outfit. Please Dahlia fashion pleeasseee.

Ok stepping away from my craziness there's a piece of clothing that I'm seriously considering to purchase. Unfortunately the shirt the model is wearing is sold out :'( so sad.

Slight obsession

I know I'm slowly turning into a crazy cat lady when I catch myself searching "cat" on a number of clothing online stores. And then I come across this dress on asos, and noticing there's an extra 10% discount on sale items, I checked out within 5 minutes ==. And apparently this was the very last piece.

I got this mug few days ago from a newsagent, I hesitated at first when I saw the "sex kitten" at the back and in the end I was like oh well who cares. I added a "y" to save myself some decency since I live with my brother. awkward. It was only 1.45 dollars I think, really good deal for a crazy cat lady.

before
after hahaha

I am currently revamping my wardrobe. Selling lotsa stuff on ebay and buying lotsa stuff as well '-'. Exciting ;D
