[Outfit] Night Is Mine!

There are of course times that I am feeling tired and feeling lazy and I just feel like being comfortable and want to dress down, such as the times when I just want to go down to get some groceries, or times when I am just going downstairs for dinner with the man, or the times when I just want to walk in the park and get some fresh air. In those times, I don't really feel like having full make up with 'clown' dresses. 

I would say I am a person who is always trapped in the reminiscent mood; I love vintage and I try my best not to throw things (which causing my room looks like in the state of war in 90% of the time in my life); I would always try to dig out the old clothing I bought years ago to mix and match with the new stuffs. So this time, I have my inexpensive skirt from Primark. 

Dressing-down doesn't mean you should look ugly. I do think you still could present your own personality even with dressing down, and you could still have fun even without the clown dresses! 
After all, life is too short for not having fun right? 



With a little bit of i-D element, if you got what I mean. The wink? 


And do have fun with the nature.  How could we not fall for the flowers? 


Shall thou staying where thou should have and I shall remember us forever.

I think it might be too little for a fashion/style post, the dressing down and all, but don't we sometimes just want to take things easy and and just have fun no matter what? 

So the night is mine! You should have yours too! Live the life we have imagined and not live the life that is told by others!

[Outfit] Dreamy Vintage Granny Look

As mentioned in previous blog, I went for outing + photo-shooting with the man who doesn't need to work on Saturday! So I decided to dig out this vintage blue dress with pleated midi which I bought sometimes ago but I haven't find the right moment to wear it; I love the colour of this dress which is in pastel blue with some pink and white polka dots on it, I find that it is very dreamy, hence, I decided to make myself a flower crown to match with it and also goes with the breezy summer (yes, I made this flower crown a day before the shooting just for the sake of matching; I know I'm a bit obsessive about it.); 






I am trying to be one of the grannies and trying to feel  like them. 


Oh, the new shoes I am in love with.



Another DIYs by me. I'm addicted to stars, as always, and the horses.


Captured a close-up of the crown to show the glitters on the glue!

I finish up the dreamy look with the stars and horse bracelets I made days ago, also I think it could create a balance look with the granny outfit. I think stars and horses are so dreamy, like unicorn in the universe? Or a marry-go-round under the starry nights? Alright, I am talking craps again. 

Anyway, do you notice the glitters on my flower crown? I used the glue which has glitters in it! I was looking for it since I last seen something similar in Tavi's Style Rookie and finally I found it in some handicrafts shop!! Hooray! I bought gold and darker silver with glitters as well, will try it out next time. I think that the glitters glue could cover the ugly that you wanna hide from being seen by others, such as the cuts of the stem of the flowers. 

Oh, and of course I want to talk about the new shoes I got from Monki (of yes I am a fans, too bad that I couldn't get Topshop here, so I invested big amount of my money to Monki, and thank God that we have COS in HK now). I found this pair of shoes is pretty interesting the first time I saw it in the shop, but I was stopped from buying it by my friend (who are trying calm me down from the mood of shopaholic-ness, I thank her for her goodwill); However, I just couldn't forget about the shimmering caused by the 'leather' of the shoes for days, so it is now staying happily ever after with me :) 

Before ending the post, I wanna share an interesting idea that the man who photo-shot me came out with for my facebook album about my outfit, he pop-out this idea to title my album as : SOUP OF THE DAY which give me the feeling of love at first sight! So the album is created with some descriptions I created for it - 

Soup of the Day.

I will add different kinds of ingredients according to my mood of the day, and hopefully, it comes out 'tasty' enough; 
Or at least, hopefully, not a catastrophe. 


Ok, just trying to give some credits to this creative man. 
I am sleepy after typing this long post, I hope this doesn't put those who are reading into sleepy mood too.

[Outfit] Moon Power! Make Up!

As mentioned in my previous post, I had dressed up for the French class and the singing competition yesterday and I have promised to upload the snapshots of my yesterday outfit. So here it is~ 

Part of the reason I decided to buy the top is for the competition; Honestly, I didn't really give it a damn, I didn't practise much, as I don't really care about the result and the prizes, I am just going there for fun! Owh, I didn't take the singing competition seriously doesn't mean I won't take care of my look for the competition (Hell no way! I am facing like so many people during the competition, there is no way I would dress down and not showing my attitude) So I chose this simple top yet there is a fashion statement made in the collar. Together with this Japanese animation, Sailormoon, necklace I have collected since I was in primary school, I believe this top has made a kinda strong statement. (I think you will get me about the Sailormoon if you are about same age as me and have the same childhood memories as me. I always think Sailormoon should always go with the sparkling element.)




I seriously think that Sailormoon looks good with the blings! MOON POWER!








Uhmm.. I actually first saw this Monki's top few weeks ago and the bling-bling stones on the collar has caught my eyes but I didn't buy it as at that moment I was thinking I could do myself a stones collar by sewing my favourite coloured stones on it; well, I could only say that I am lazy bug and I bought this top the second time I saw it in the shop (I gave up the idea of doing it myself. Next time, maybe.) 

I purposely match the bling bling Sailormoon childish look with the bag (or clutch? I am not sure, it's actually a camera-bag-ish kind of texture, so it's not a formal kind of bag) ; Also, the bag is to tone down the 'cool-ness' of the black bottoms. I think the bag is kinda cute and it's inexpensive! It has two side of different pictures if you are aware of it, both with elegant lady-ish cats on it which I think is so fashionable. 

Forgive that my red nails are not perfectly painted; I have purposely done this manicure 2 days ago for the competition (as I have already decided I would wear the black skirt with black tights so I think red would pop out from the dark, and I also decided to give the rock 'n roll impression to the judges, yea I always have my own role play. la di da), however, it's worn off on the day I get the manicure done (I think the shop didn't do it quite nicely, but it's inexpensive so what to expect right) So I think the wear off effect actually gives the rock 'n roll spirit some bonus points? 

Anyway, the competition result will be out tomorrow. I didn't put too much hope on it though as I was sick the day before the competition. But I guess I presented myself quite nicely with my own attitude. 

So, life is short and we should just have more fun and be happy!
