Been awhile since i did one of these – Well muskokavintage has been on my etsy favourites for awhile now, partly cos they take really good photos of their clothes. It’s like the moment they step out of their houses, they’re greeted by the sea or fields of nothingness. I would kill for that, frankly. Sometimes i have so much envy for bloggers like Alix, Sally Jane, Effie, The Clothes Horse and Taghrid (just to name a few), i swear they live in paradise or something.
I’m going home for a week to sister-sit, i’ll have a slight change in environment, nothing drastic but i miss my white walls! Can’t leave these out, here are some photos from muskokavintage and isn’t that teal swimsuit the cutest thing? Yeah they make it look so good there, if i were to wear to a public pool, i’ll look like a complete looney.

It is quite clear that i’m hardly an accessory person, i did my time when i was younger and fell out of it soon after. But i enjoy them on people, it sure as hell takes a certain kind of effort to rake them in, mix & match and take them off. You gotta admit that one, taking them off is quite a hassle. Well despite me not being big on add-ons, i’ve been scouring etsy for head gears lately. The recent launch of ban.do is all over the internet and i suspect that ignited this crave for some feathers in my hair! Plus a downer of having short hair is not being able to do much with it y’know, my options are 1) blowdry 2) don’t blowdry.
I’m not sure how the idea of feathers came about – the first i saw was the piece from Bona Drag, made known by way of Dreamecho. Kennedyholmes also does a different take with hers. I found a couple of etsy sellers with similar versions and some others a little less flamboyant.
1. From GaiaTroveChicago 2. From maryjanefrances 3. From VieModerne 4. From thecandythief, she makes her head bands out of felt which definitely makes it look more abstract 5. From creativeyarn 6. From sewsephine
Another popular seller is charmschooldesign (not pictured) and her shop is by far my favourite to browse through. I’m not sure how i can incorporate these into my dressing but it’s something i’d like to try.

I never thought i could like ruffles this much, roselabiche definitely got me to sit up and adore.
I really like them more and more.

I know i look stiff like wood :
Dress: From my mom (altered and shortened)
Belt: Purchased online
Shoes: gwenevere24′s etsy store
I headed out to thread my brows and have some chappathi while at it. Then i had some time to pick out my sister’s birthday gift as well as something for mother’s day. My mom requested for a journal/diary and i told her i’d get her the red edition moleskine (she doesn’t like her things in black) but i can’t find them in stores anymore. So i settled for a pretty journal in dust pink with a beautiful embossed cover. I also thought of getting her the latest Chloe fragrance just because it smells heavenly. But i don’t know, you reckon my mom who is approaching fifty would enjoy something Chloe Sevigny?
