I love it when outfits have an extra element that takes everyone by surprise!

I love this Topshop tuxedo blazer I purchased from the flagship store at Knightsbridge. I want to buy so many more blazers in charcoal and nude (and black of course). They are so versatile -  you can dress them up or down easily.

My bag was stuffed to its bursting point with my dinosaur of a laptop.

I like to wear this harness over plain jackets or coats to spice them up! It gets sort of boring during winter when everyone wears the same few coats. I had the misfortune of bumping into people on the streets wearing the same coat more than once.

Outfit Breakdown:

  • Blazer: Topshop
  • Harness: AudraJean on Etsy
  • Dress: Cotton On
  • Bag: Charles & Keith
  • Shoes: H&M Divided exclusive

The bulk of picture are still being processed by Arissa but here’s a little peek. I really love how whimsical and personal the wall of snapshots is. There is just some quality about physical photographs that differs from digital ones -  a wall plastered with polaroids and 5Rs just isn’t the same as photos on your facebook wall. All these pictures were printed with Canon’s Selphy printer and I find myself tempted to get one, except my cat would rip every single picture off the wall to line her litter box. That bitch.

I bought this fascinator when my friend Elsie brought me to an Accessorize store in Trocadero Square, Piccadilly Circus when I was in London a few months ago. Accessorize is nothing new in London, except this particular one is always on sale. Storewide. I am going to stop here to let that sink in.

Black Outfit Breakdown:

  • Cardigan: H&M
  • Dress: Mango
  • Stockings: Miss Selfridge
  • Shoes: H&M Divided
  • Necklace: Claires
  • Fascinator: Accessorize

I just got back from Germany not too long ago and I shudder at the thought of weighing myself on the scale. When I pack on weight, all of it goes to my thighs and arms. I have got nothing against women with curves, but they have to be in the right places. I am so paranoid to wear shorts now because I am afraid that my cottage cheese thighs will jiggle tantalizingly at every passer-by. How very fetching.

Someone please buy me this to hide in? It seems warm and damp and all you need to do is to pass me a morsel or two every few days.

Guess who is resurrected from the dead? Clue: it’s not a mummy. Although I could pretend to be one with the Herve Leger wannabe bandage dress.

Despite still having one last paper to hurdle over, I’d like to think that my exams are over. So here I am, back to camwhoring taking self portraits alone out in the public and possibly disturbing a few ongoing wedding shoots in the meantime. The above pictures are awkwardly cropped because of my bewildered expression in all of them, which I tend to get when I am trying to not fall to my death spinning on platform heels. Such a sucker for punishment. But at the rate I am wearing those shoes, they are likelier to perish first.

Hello, earthlings. A friend jokingly commented that I looked like “an alien from outerspace came to earth and won the world wrestling federation championship!” when she saw me in this outfit. I did feel like I could kick some ass in this get-up, though. I am loving the shoulders of this dress, and the stuff I snagged from the H&M Divided Exclusive collection.
