In case this post isn’t obvious enough, I am absolutely obsessed with cropped tops and you know how things go down with Dawn and I; once we are obsessed with something, we end up buying multiples of it.

That is the story of how I ended up with two more cropped tops from ASOS.

The UNIF Garter Skirt had been lying in my closet for quite some time and I wasn’t able to find a nice cropped top to go with it but now that summer is approaching, there are more cropped tops available online! I love the corset details and the fan-shaped lacing reminds me so much of medical corsets. It’s a little hard to sit down cause there are some bonings in the front which gets in the way.

I am also sporting TEAL HAIR now! I never really thought teal was my colour but the green undertones from my last hair colour will give it a turquoise colour when the teal fades out!

In case why anyone is wondering WHY my hair isn’t frizzy and fried after all that colouring and bleaching, it’s all thanks to Hairloom’s O3 treatment ($95 for all hair-length!!!!). Prior to the treatment, my hair was tangled even at my length and it was hard to dry my hair properly for fear of breakage. The treatment really saved it and the effects are pretty long-lasting as well. They are giving away a free O3 hair treatment when you colour your hair with them from now until 30 June 2013!

It’s ridiculous how the weather in London teases you – one week it seems like we are finally seeing the arrival of Spring, and the next, it is as if we have moved up to the same latitude as Iceland. If anyone reading this is more in tune with the weather gods than I am, please pass on the message that this PMS-like fluctuation is really not an okay thing to do.

These pictures were taken on one of those rare warmer days – this week has seen a return to more siberian conditions, and it is just impossible to head anywhere without a warm coat.

I’ve found a new love for plummy lips with Burberry’s Lip Velvet in 308! The colour is so vibrant with just a single coat and it applies evenly despite me having the most chapped lips ever.

This Zara clutch reminds me of the Jil Sander lunch bags we did a DIY on. It comes with magnetic clasps at the top so you can also carry it with the shoulder straps!

I have an amazing backlog. This picture was taken when Dawn was still in Singapore at the NARS cosmetics launch. NARS was a great host that day, with its launch held at the Art Science Museum. I’ve been a huge fan of NARS since I first came across it in the US.

My apologies for not maintaining the blog well for the past 3 weeks, work has been keeping me really busy. I have newfound admiration for bloggers who are able to balance their blog with their work and this is something I have to work towards. For those that are reading this, thank you for sticking around. :)

When it comes to life, everyone wants the maximum reward with the minimum output. Functional items are starting to make up more and more of my wardrobe as I seek to put together a practical get-up for school without compromising on style or comfort.

The m)phosis wedges I purchased yesterday is amazingly comfortable. Pair it with a maxi dress and throw on a statement necklace, and I am ready for school.

I went on a holiday to Japan a while back, but since it was with family I did not get the opportunity to really take outfit pictures! We have to wake up ridiculously early each day anyway, so I was dressed rather sloppily casual most of the time. Contrary to what I’d like people to believe, I have days where I just can’t be arsed to think of what to wear. My primary objective of getting dress on those days is to simply not appear indecently in public and turn onlookers to stone.
