You're from the 70s, but I'm a 90's bitch

I am born in the year of 94', but since I didn't get the chance to live the fashion of that era - or the lack of, for that matter (think fanny packs, slap bracelets, puka shell necklaces and hair scrunchies) - here's an outfit put together by the three things that can't get anymore 90s: denim, tartan and creepers. Kept a modern touch to the ensemble with the touch of pleather in the shirt and leopard prints on my creepers.

I spent the better part of the rest of the 90s gnawing on teething toys, watching the original series of Thomas The Tank Engine and reading Winnie the Pooh. Oh yeah, I was a HUGE fan. I had a complete set of diecast metal trains, as well as the full series of Winnie the Pooh books and cassette tapes. Apparently I can now sell the trains on eBay as vintage items.

Is it just me, or do I suddenly feel extremely old? My toys are now considered vintage.

Reminiscent of winter

This was a shoot I did a couple of months ago, but I never got to post it because I felt that there weren't enough detail photos. It's one of the looks I snapped for my OO7D feature in QiuQiu's Qweekly magazine

But now, as I sit in Singapore's sweltering 33 degree humid weather, reminiscing about eight degree winter back in Australia, I find posting this particularly apt. 

I think this coat speaks for itself, really. The combination of the different textures, coupled with the angular lines of the cut, makes it so quirky and unique. I am absolutely in love with it. I paired it with a black chiffon shirt with denim and delicate gold chain detailing and a burgundy skater skirt. Going with the burgundy theme, I took out my owl bowler bag for a little spin. 

On another note, here marks the start of my holiday, can't wait to take advantage of the cheap shopping here in Singapore! 

Happy Sunday everyone!
