One night, after sushi + mild grocery shopping.
Wearing a black mini shift dress from The Shoplifters, black cardigan + white ankle socks from Muji, black vintage wingtips from etsy (replacement for my trashed oxfords!), Bayswater bag from Mulberry
Last Sunday i spied this jetty while on the bus, making our way to see Oasis. Today we made a little trip there, i had to, i’ve been singing The Kook’s Seaside for the entire day. While it isn’t quite a seaside, it was nice enough. I like the water a lot, i think most people do. We might contemplate moving to East Coast maybe!
Wearing a vintage 50s plaid dress from etsy, blue suede purse from etsy too and Saltwater Sandals.
I’m awfully tired but i know this has to go up before i sleep away the happy buzz the show left me. Three years back, i went to see them and they ranked #1 as favourite concert ever since then. Tonight, they topped themselves! I could do a whole essay on what they did right but in short, they looked like they were having such a good time playing, being this band and that’s all they needed to do.
I felt i went to this huge party and had so much fun. All these little things they did, Chris Martin was funny, videography was hands-down impressive, at one point so many people were standing on their chairs dancing, Chris Martin made us do the mexican wave with our cellphones… I forget some now but i just didn’t want the party to end. And if you care enough to know what i wore, this is what. Because after tonight, my prior excitement to my Life in Technicolour attempt at dressing up just amounted to nothing!
Haa i know, the masks, just had to do them. That’s my boyfriend, Ben, who kindly accompanied me in this shot!
“It’s hard to get without a cause,
I don’t want to perish like a fading voice,
Youth is like diamonds in the sun,
And diamonds are forever”
See what a school girl blouse and a box sling bag does to me, like i’m eighteen all over again.

My boyfriend & i were at Ikea earlier on and this time, he tried to actively participate in choosing new bedsheets – which made me very pleased! Yeah but my whole bedsheet-world came crashing down when the one he picks ran out of stock. And when i point out an alternative choice, he says something like “buttt it’s purple and green..”. “Aha! Lookey at me, i’m wearing purple and green!?!”. Nice one, H!
