Lucky.



        It's been long overdue, so I'll keep it short. I'm supposed to do my moodboards for Project TWO NOW yet instead have the urge to archive this. For SE7EN's showcase back in early February (read it all here! Be sure to comment on and say hi!) me and Shirley went in to enjoy the little showcase and go ring ding dong over his Di gi tal boounce... Di gi tal sooound, di gi tal exxxx... welcome to my digital world!









Goofing around is the best thing we do, or I do when I'm halfly interested. Not a Lucky 7 but hey, listening Digital Bounce for free, LIVE?! Who doesn't want that I love that tune. Met Hajar of Sharing Yoochun /coughs when she also appears to many many other K-Pop un-TVXQ!/JYJ events but I love her anyways. Super cute and nice unni! Will try to catch up with you at SMU Koufu sometimes.
If you see this Hajar unni, Where's our photos from your camera! See mine's blurred out.

OK, it's more for Mr. 7 now - shall post the funny unedited ones. He's still nice and human don't worry so still love him!




Second picture is hilarious, the sudden rocker all hair-up. His passion people! It's there. Love him still. :)

And to show that I was there rockin' the seven...



peekture perfect!
(my hair still looks good here. Fresh from the first week)


So, here's the lowdown on SE7EN in Singapore on MY article!
(ahem. the MY there is actually how fast people take of course by crediting but only to Korea.com instead with me too TT^TT but then it shows how fast the news go but how come there's no discussion going on! So quiet! You all fangirls chirp and start commenting or else I won't go to another event! /liar)



•wearing Since Always 8-way (or more) top, Paul Direk drop-crotch pants, Zaha Hadid x Melissa wedges. Accessories: Turquoise necklace, from Yunan, Bossini anti-water bag•       

Outfit post - did try to look nice since it was an event after all minus the press con but it was at VIVO on a weekend. Why not! Pulled out my new Zaha darlings all the way from the USA. It came across the seven seas finally, finally here, since the day I bought online on Gilt in July.

•well well, this is 7. Next hype would be FAREAST MOVEMENT & Park Jung Min!•

Sweet six illustrators and designers that has captured me - the Sweet edition of WDFIV!

        In conjunction with my research for two branding projects which needs references of graphics, from cute girly ones to plain pen graphic drawing, I guess the ones that caught my attention are the whimsical, cute, handrawn ones. And well, I am a Japanese at heart afterall. It's mostly Japanese designers dominated this time! But of course, there's a dipping pool for those who think Japanese is not their cup of tea down below...





Just kill me with pen, graphic pen and pencil drawings with cute dash of colorful patterns. Polkaros is too uberly cute to miss! Whimsical and just plain cu-u-ute, perfect for a pop-up Valentine's day card, yes? 






So Takahashi's "You wanna buy a Carpark/Craprak?" CD design which is oh-so-wonderful, so, so me and the direction somewhat of my catalog. Originally, I found out about this project in a book, below, and finally got the better resolution on his portfolio, Heads Inc. Another one is his Shisheido lookbook which has a simple but the breakable layout rule and 3D invitation design which is innovative in its simplicity yet the feature of the surprise in the middle.



He's a good one to also check out his conceptual, futuristic VMs with Shisheido (his biggest client with many collabs yet?). Very cool!

I accidentally stumbled upon a 'wrong' Chinatsu portfolio, where I first wanted to find Chinatsu H below, but then after googling (because apparently the name Chinatsu is so common!), I found this sleek Fulvimari-like illustrator minus the blotches with relatively simple touch of just lines.
I'm happy I stumbled upon her, raving her work!












Now onto the real Chinatsu that I was finding, is Chinatsu Higashi! She has been featured in the dreamy magazine Lula, and dubs herself as the artist who does illustration illusion. Fairly whimsical with pastel candy colors and collages of flowers, toys, and your childhood most favorite things, it doesn't stop to entice you and you wish you were living in her fairytale world.





I. need. to. know. the. designer. who. did. this. beautiful. pretty. little. surrealistic. thing. More on MANOUSH brand and S/S11 lookbook in Dolls Factory where I found it, and there's no other information. Love the logos and everything on the first image.















Esther Horchner's tongue-in-cheek teapots that would surely scare your future mother-in-laws. Please do not serve her with these chinas, get some traditional real china for that. This one could be saved for Black Day on March 14 for all the single ladies!

end! time for life rants.



thought that it looked hilarious. the usual moniker i call my friends in terms calling them as a monkey.

The moodboard #1 progress that needs a boost of cafffeine every night to keep me stay morphed as an owl:




February is definitely pink-ish!

Found this little cutie thru House of Jeroy which I REALLY NEED since I keep breaking my specs for freaking no reason which leaves me with the bugseye glasses I'm getting annoyed with. It comes with an awesome packaging as well. Oh-la-la. A primary. Alternative: back to Raybans.







Chotto! Anyways, support the ever-amusing local brand The Balletcats with their new limited design Half-Puss. Sneak peek, Read the article. And it's long overdue for the already collaborative sold-out project I did with this unnerving brand.

  Achtung!           In support for the lovely book-a-zine CIRCUS where I introduced back last year, dead over there for more details, and if you like the book-a-zine and is familiar/have it, please support the next edition, VOYAGE, here! (And so I can kickstart in the work I'm going to hand in to them. ;D) I'll leave you here with what it looks like and an excerpt of a beautiful editorial I love inside.

Waiting...



Valentine's day is approaching! Absolutely loving the detail, see her portfolio in full. Bless for those who do have a special someone, who will celebrate or expect a surprise, residing in the same city and has the luxury to meet everyday. It is for LDR couples.

Ho ho ho.





 
             I'll just wait and rot in the corner until my wife fetches me. Don' think he can hear me either. He's leavin away, see see, avoiding the fact he won't be around in flesh when the time comes.

Oh how can you be fakqing gorgeous in such a candid pic.

I don't think I do this often but I guess I should, other than my Tweet profile (and I don't RT all the posts I write tweeted. Not 24/7 on Deck or something, I don't have meme or deck or shuffle cards or whatsoever!)

 




  A Scarf Affair with fantasy-tical illustrator Pomme-Chan @ 



Please buy me this!
(who am I talking to again? The wind? The ... well boy who used to be beside me ran away)

(which I just watched the re-run on Metro TV just an hour back)

Singapore. This was I, Robot visiting Singapore which I couldn't go! TT_TT




Plus, from one highly-knowledgable article from the board,



Watch the whole process of the magazine creation of 2 months, in a short run-through video created by the magazine's team to bring the latest ephemeral issue, The Black Swan Issue.



 Rather stressful yet uber fun and this cubicle life is my job in the future? ! ! Cramped with all and small white Macs like mine? I demand an iMac desktop if I were you.
Bravo guys! I want a copy!!!!




and still a couple more but never mind too tired.


Finally, SUJUNESIA spotted in SUPER SHOW 3! Hear hear, it was originally first up on
HeyDiaspora HERE!
Over and out! Dead tired!
Apparently no couple were interested in the half-off dinner date at TBC/TBR, and not even my friends are interested to be my date. D:

I am such a pauper in this world, no kidding. Was and always been. I may be a princess in the eyes of yours but I'm actually living most of my days as a photocopied paper. TT_TT

WDF, I guess I gotta read The Alchemist so though negative things bump to me daily I'll be forever positive or have power to always give ultra-fake pepsodent "I'm alright" smile.



Anyone minding to chirp me up? Thank you in advance that at least someone cares nor appreciates my journal here.



T w e e t   C l i c k   M e !
