Pierce.

I've been meaning to post it since September last year after I arrived from my two-week Eurotrippin' and not until today I had the sudden motivation to revive my blog again - I'm getting some creative juices!

There was this simple dress I got for roughly S$8 in BKK and I wanted to make things rather different. My style, Miss Foo will say when she sees this. Everyone knows I like drape drape, so here's just one way to do things your own way and be different, and all you need is:

the basic dress with only 1 pin

 

• 1 Long dress, preferably with a pattern so draped and scrunch looks visible compared to solid black
• 10-15 pins, big ones like those nappy for babies (since I used them for this) and normal ones, big ones better to keep the weight.

It's not so easy, I had to pin and pierce it while I wear it because laying them on the bed and scrunching it in will not look the same. I tried it on and off, and best way is to keep it ON.
Sorry for the bad image, it was really late at night and I was rushing off or I'll look horrendous on Day 5.

 This was scrunched and held perfectly with trial and error. Make sure your pins really are strong and won't fall off halfway. My dress material was polyester cotton jersey and polyester made it ultra heavy. So those babies huge ones actually did help through the inside.

TA - DA, you now look different.

See the rest of my trip's looks of 10 days worth!

are you absolutely curious of what's in my shopping cart right now?

 I won't turn my back on you if you want to do the checkout for moi! ^o^

Well here goes!

*Hilarious but surprisingly comfy inner leather lining furrrr vest from Zara. Fits me just nice! Adds fierceness to just my plain Ouval tee, DIY ripped jeans and new snake-patterned wedges! It surely would add another focal point in my wardrobe, tee hee*

*A beautiful white top with flower embroideries,

and the simply ah-mazing garment made out of denim, reminding me like that denim competition project, from, the noneother, DESIGUAL. RAWRRR!

The price tag please don't ask for the denim however favorable when it's 50%. I'm waiting till end of season sales!

Decided to leave the black dress I've been setting my jaws on. The denim is IT.
(updated with a frontal image of that skirt patched up)*

 *This, is another proud breakthrough of Indonesian products. Quality (should be) like any other high street fashion boutiques but it's Indonesian! Amazing how we can do it as well like those western countries! You gotta see the whole mesmerizing collection, stunning! Especially those special textured leather... sepijeles.

From Syu Shu (search thru Fagbook-courtesy to Lyssa-chan for that)*

 *River Island's latest newsletter, they've just launched their "Your Couture" range of... SHOES! In HEELS! MAN~!

ALSO CHECK OUT THEIR POWER DRESSING, THE DETAILS ON THE SHOULDER ANGLES ARE IN STYLE AND I WANT TOO!*

Why oh why heels are drop dead gorgeous! I need flat shoes my feet veins are all much more visible everywhere it's seriously scary of how it might pop...

(I wonder how Vic Beckham's feet look like. All blue?)

Well I shall save myself from leg pain for this... If it were to have a bit more less straps I think it would make my feet quite pretty and not making it look bigger.  (but DAMN IT they do not have it in my size.) Or then the korean Converse would make a bit entrance of being different than plain Converses.

 

*I HEART G-MARKET SINGAPORE BADLY RIGHT NOW BUT DARN I CANNOT DO TRANSFERS OR HAVE CREDIT CARDS, this sandals are just nice and surely it looks friendly enough to keep my feet happy for the long hauling hours of walking without making enemies (blisters).

Also check out their women wear of super cheap cheap cheap collection of tees and all as well! well maybe not that cheap as the material is very light and thin but still. Korean style!*

Then more favorite picks from London Fashion Week's spectators' shoes report here. First is fiercely awesome, second is WHAT I WANT but in blue or magenta, third is quirky!

Why oh why is my world currently revolving in shoes (every newsletter in my inbox has something to do with shoes...)

Well I did purchase another pair of shoes, from Nine West a week or two ago... yellow lace jelly flats! It was on sale, S$27.50 and it was the last pair, and in my size! I saw it one weekend and the next weekend I came back and it was still there! To save myself from my black flowered faux Chanel shoes which give me blisters all over after a long time wearing it, also jelly material, although prettier than my sucky (but comfy) flats, I wore them and thought this should not give me blisters as I walked in it a bit as trial.

Alas, I've wore them twice, and it is jelly material, and the skin has friction and thus no matter what it still create blisters on my toes and later-effects would be always the same place where we would stick our plasters: the back. Grrrrr.

Should I give in to myself and grab a pair of an enlarging-feet pair of Rubi flats? Not jelly but soft cushioning inside... Sigh I need to revive my white sandals which has the perfect design and suitable for all styles... I cannot find a similar style nor a pair that fits me prettily...

Asking what is this ridiculous pile of mess of Cotton On? You might spot the fluorescent colors of red in the tags, that shall explain the rest and save me some time to do my essay. Earlier in the month, the day I got my paycheck after the first month of working, and I've been eyeing these tops since they were on the racks, and promised to myself to seriously get it all when it's 50%,

and it was such wonder when I asked Cindy of Don't Ask Miss Foo, "Hey, let's check out Cotton On first." That sentence made a whole difference to my day, or to be exact, my wallet. Six items of clothing came home with me and they instantly made friends with the rest in the wardrobe! This was my splurge after a whole month of not wanting to shop, and this pulse still lingers, not wanting to go away (so thus I now splurge on food oh my it's a bad thing I know) and also getting a Jump ticket which gave my wallet a Stadium 5.

Unsurvivable.

Blame it to Miss Foo!

Equally important, what made it to my world's headlines I shall need to get it. Feed my mind. Soomin, you also want this right? Get it for me too! XD

밑쪼소!!!! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

 It would be my very first Nylon, in Korea some more, and it's frikin' G-Dragon (these days he takes on all those high fashion spreads in mags) and I DAMN want Ceci with stars galore but sold out... Zipper having an edition with a cute gift... And the newest Elle Girl Korea with Big Bang! And don't blame me for the genius fever after watching Shining Inheritance... glorious clean cover page I'm sad I've missed Kim Bum's High Cut...

Someone get a basket and hurry take all these glossies for me at Star Thots mag section!

However, even Cinderella has to stop her dreams by midnight, in 2 minutes for me. Back to work.
