These tights, i have been coveting since i saw them on Rhiannon many many moons back. So when i received them from Modcloth i was over the moon! But then of course, i had to rip them that night. Slightly. Still wearable. Maybe for two more wears, we’ll see.
Dress is vintage from ebay, tights from Modcloth, F-Troupe jazz flats and vintage briefcase bag from clevernettle.
This was what i wore to the NDP Preview on Saturday. Running late + self-timer resulted in out of focus photo #1. But you get the idea! And photo #2, my new Jeffrey Campbell sandals which i love love <3.
I spent some time with my brother dearest and lil sister yesterday; we did lunch at Brewerkz followed by the Singapore River Cruise. My sister loves the boat ride so we pretended to be tourists and hopped on. I was snapping away with film so expect to see touristy singapore photos soon! Come evening, i was going to see The Unguarded Moment by Steve McCurry at ACM – it’s part of the Month of Photography Asia. So i put on something a little nice and drew my lips red.
80s Black Mini Dress from Liebemarlene Vintage, Briefcase Bag from Estate Sale, Sheer Hearts Sock from Betsey Johnson and Black Ballet Flats from StudioTangs
Onto the exhibition, (my bf didn’t take many photos due to the large crowd)
The famed ‘Afghan Girl’ – which i didn’t know anything about before i got there :}
The man himself, Steve McCurry, on the right. What a life he has lived, this man.
I’m not gonna say much about his photos, i’ve stopped trying to give my point of view on art because i know what i feel when i see each of them but haven’t got enough eloquence to put it into words. The colours on every of his photos is stunning though, stunning. Apparently his prints are printed using an Epson so i’m leaning towards an Epson now, when the time comes to buy a large-scale printer.
{Thanks Nabs for getting me to go!}
So i said to hell with the weather, i’m gonna wear tights out tonight. I miss them! Even more so after seeing them girls in bright tights.
Dress is from Diane’s shop, tights from UO, boots via ebay and canvas tote from a friend.
Got fed up with posing for photos cos my face won’t cooperate so here’s me doing what i do best. Being a doofus, kicking nothing, breaking into a sweat, all with the intention of showing off my tights! But uhh, no tights till it gets cooler. No ball of hair on head too, that’s next to go.
Ahhh, you have no idea how uncomfortable it was to be posing for outfit shots again. I freeze and become a robot and retarded! Well this is the first night in many weeks (no kidding) that i’ve put on nicer clothes to step out. So it deserves a photo. I bought this dress from Diane with every intention to combat the humid weather in it and since florals to me, is being happy and cheery, that’s my disguise. Now i’m actually a really grumpy person once outside my home.
I couldn’t decide which photo to pick so two-in-one it is. Also i’m getting used to wearing something in my hair now but let’s see how long that’ll last. It makes me feel vain, well a little.
Floral Empire Dress: Shop Darling
Lilac bow in my hair: Came with Diane’s package (thank you!!)
