Fireweed

All these times, I've always gone for bright colors when it comes to jeans. That explains why it never occurs to me that I didn't have any trousers for a more formal look, not even one. How terrible is that? I can't believe I've been living for 14 years without a single pair something as versatile as black jeans. I think all of you have at least owned a black jeans once in your lifetime. Well, not me. I've been looking for the right bottom to pair this blazer with for ages and apparently, all I need was just a pair of black jeans. Since the blazer itself is oversized, I personally think the best way to pair it is with a fitted bottom to avoid looking slouchy and all. Initially, I planned to wear it with a button up, but I found it quite dressy and it just wasn't what I was looking for in a casual outfit. I honestly find little details of an outfit really matter. Sometimes people don't even pay attention to little details but I really think simple details like the zippers on the sides of my jeans and the nano-dotted print showing when I roll up the sleeves of my blazer give more definitions to the outfit.

Chain reaction

I was extremely glad that I found almost everything on my wish list during the spring break. Oh wait, I still am. But it's a separate wish list from the one I posted here like a month ago. This wish list was made to be completely fulfilled while that one was a wish list which is..you know are just wishes, I don't really mind if I don't actually get all of them. Some of them are way out of my league anyway. Though I may have include some things from my 'real' wish list, like the chunky chain necklace and bracelet set. Some of the things from my wish list that I've purchased are these burgundy skinny jeans, black leather rucksack, chunky chain necklace and of course this wicked hat that I've spotted all over lookbook.nu. The thing about this chiffon blouse is that it matches almost everything in my closet. Good thing it's chiffon so I don't have to feel agitated by the annoying heatwave that never seems to go away.

Teenage daydream

An outfit post that I've postponed for wayyyy too long. You might've noticed that this is one of the outfits featured on GoGirl's rated stylish, March 2012 edition. I actually planned to post every outfit I wore there as individual outfit posts back then. But somehow it just slipped off my mind. Anyway, this is my favorite outfit amongst all of them which was why I've finally decided to shot some pictures of it and post it. Other than the fact that I really love the letterman jacket that I can't stand it if I don't blog about it and it also seems like the whole letterman/varsity jacket trend is back again. Right, I was going for the high school kind of look with the letterman jacket and pleated skirt. Also, what's more preppy than a satchel, right?

Just a simple outfit, really. I decided to wear lace on lace for a casual day out with my friends last week. Yeah, the pattern of this skirt is similar to the one I wore on the previous outfit. I actually made numerous of them in various print. So expect to see the rest of them on this blog. I feel like my love for dainty rings has grown bigger and bigger. I honestly can't stop wearing rings these days. I always feel the need to wear at least one whenever I'm going out. Anyway, I've been having trouble sleeping lately. All those hours spent on trying to sleep always ended up as hours of tosses and turns. Seriously, this is slowly killing me. Alright, I should probably go force myself to sleep again and hope this is the end of it.

Recently I...

1. Received another gift order from a friend. Incase you don't get it, it's a polaroid camera which shoots out a picture with the birthday greeting. It's been a while since I last did anything with clay. Just haven't found any reason to fool around with clay aside from making gift orders.

2. Tried the new puncher my mom just got. I gotta tell you, it's amazing. Well, I guess every Martha Stewart's puncher is amazing. I ended up using the paper doily to decorate the wrapping of the gift.
3. Had Quaker oat's apple & cinnamon cookies along with strawberry & banana smoothie for breakfast. Everybody kept telling me how Quaker oat's cookies taste really nice. I didn't understand what the fuss was about until I tried these cookies. They really taste amazing. I've tried the raisins cookies as well, but they just can't beat the apple & cinnamon cookies . You must think I'm out of my mind by having just cookies and a glass of smoothie for breakfast. But you have to understand that banana is an energy boosting fruit. Not only it tastes really good, it's healthy as well. 

3. Spent quite sometime in our craft room while waiting for the clay mini polaroid camera to dried up. Then I found the pins that I got from Dr.Martens stuffed in a jar together with rest of the pins my mom made from fabrics.
4. Listened to Rain by Patty Griffin as I resumed making summary notes for my upcoming pain-in-the-ass-examinations and indulged myself in a cup of lime juice. I have no idea why it was made in a cup instead of a glass. 
5. Had my face captured by Mira when I was editing all these photos. I don't usually hang out in the kitchen, but I made an exception since the breeze blowing from the windows behind me was surprisingly soothing. Yeah, you've probably never seen me in my specs before. 
6. Had a scoop of green tea ice cream that Mira made. Which by the way needed to be stirred every 45 minutes by ME during the process of transforming into an ice cream, since our ice cream maker just couldn't work properly. Thank god it tastes perfect or else all those getting up from my perfectly cozy couch would've been for nothing.
