Hello all! I'm finally putting up pictures of what I'm wearing or making, and will try to make it a daily thing. Unfortunately, college doesn't allow me to get dressed up much, but still, I try. :)
what I'm wearing: blue tank top from chemistry; black tights from H&M, grey rubber shoes from Bata for the rain; and black Shoulderbag with silver sequins. too rainy to accessor-ize beyond this for the day. hopefully, the attempt at doing this everyday will motivate me. Please, feel free to comment and suggest.

sequins and fluff,

I adore sales! They're wondrous and its awesome what you can get out of them. Specially when the sale is on basics. :) A few days back, I went with a couple of friends to the mall and Levise Signature had this buy one get one free offer and the jeans were really cheap to start with. SCORE! Their no altering policy and my endless blog reading meant Craft Time. I altered one pair by myself and was left with scrap denim. Result? Cool denim hair bow.
Take the scrap, snip it to the sizeyou want the hair bow to be, hole punch the center and push a ribbon, the color of your choice through and tie at the back. for extra strength, stitch or super-glue it together so that the creases stay the way you want them to.
Now I have an extra pair of jeans that are identical. Ripped still in fashion?

Mornings can be such happy things if you've actually slept the night before; after the first five minutes of having finished getting out of bed. :)
GOD, forgive me for I have sinned. I spent an entire twenty minutes checking out JUMPSUITS despite the fact that they're so fugly. Amen.
But still, muhaha. I went shopping yesterday, as planned for a change, and was too lazy to try anything on. So I wound up buying a gigantic black t shirt with a skull on both sides that falls a little higher than my knees. YAY! Minidress. Now I just have to cut off the sleeves and neck. :D Total bargain for what I paid for it.
Note to self- Must post pics of shopping soon. :)
hugs and mush

I think the only thing that comes close to leering men on my Hate List are dirty public loos. EWW! I had to use one the other day and when I got back home, I was in the shower for an hour, scrubbing away to make sure i don't get a damn infection. sigh.
I'm in a very rocky grunge mood today + I've spent way too much time on T-shirt surgery websites. Now the rest of the day is planned out:  Tear up some baggy t shirts to spunk them up a bit. Maybe hot pink ribbons too?And of course, junk jewelery shopping. Its the perfect fix to a day at work. I have to revisit this cool new place I discovered on my "I will go shopping alone in the city trip". The retailer is also the the one who makes all of the stuff and it is an amazing collection. Like a designer shop; but cheaper.
*happy dance*
I was at mango yesterday, waiting for a friend to show up for a movie. I'm in love. Skinny Pants anyone? They look yummy and feel super comfy. to start and im in love with those skinny pants. yummy; an they feel so comfy. I don't know about the fit though; Shutter Island kind of ended any desire to shop. (picture link)

What seems to be difficult this season is finding a dress that fits and doesn't need to be worn with a belt. I love belts, but I would really appreciate a heads up on a cute club-wear dress thats not to expensive and embraces the body. I'm also in love with ripped tights at the moment; the debate there is to buy or to make?

Is it wrong to want super shiny super luxe sneakers?
I mean apart from the fact that I would never work out in them. So YUMMY! I can't wait to get my hands on these, and I don't know how soon that will be. Clearly my fascination for all things gold and shiny has not died out. *Must not wear them with more shiny golden things*. And this reminds me to continue my since, like, forever hunt for a pretty and affordable not-over-the top studded bag. Willpower. I think if I spend even 5 more minutes on fashion websites today, I will require a new credit card. SIGH.
If anyone knows where to get cute shiny stuff, please post.
much love

Jumpsuits. i think i made it clear in the last post, how much they annoy me. but still, they're here and havent yet been banished to be used for construction workers on Mars. because really, that the only place where they might just begin to fit in. speaking of which, i was apalled by tyra banks devotiton to them on tope model. it felt like she didnt wear anything else, ever, for an entire season. I mean she 's hot and all. but style icon? girl, you're going down on my list.

Here's the loop on jumpsuits (if you are going to wear them, despite my warning)

1. NO DENIM. you are not going to do hard labor in a mine. as much as I am for class euality and respecting jobs, if you re not working as a miner; dont LOOK like one. NO!
2. baggy pant ending. they're bad enough on their own, please dont make it worse by looking like you left your house in PJs
3. baggy top. yes i know you can clinch it. yes it hides flab. yes the bottom might be fitting. if thats what you want, just wear a cute short kaftan with short shorts. dont look like you decided to wear a garbage bag on your upper body and found machy shorts or pants. please.
4. baggy anything. yes it looks a like nightgown in a very non sultry non attarctive way. so unless you want to tell the world you're too lazy to athe and change in the morning, please spare us.
5. if you must wear one, i suggest going for one that cute, simple and clean. like a tube top with pants that are narrow fit; or a sleevelss-ey top one with shorts. and then pair with a belt or chunky chain, or both. that might still be okay
