Hi, my name is Dandy

Cavalli


Dolce & Gabbana


Dries Van Noten

It all started with an wedding invite i received a couple of days back. The usual details that was printed...location, time, date..blah blah...but then my eyes stopped at the dress code bit (that's always what i am more interested in rather than where the dinner is actually going to take place). So, this time round it spells "Ladies & Gentlemen" and i thought its really something different (what i always got in the past was Formal Chic, Shirt & tie or simply Formal).

Then i started to do some research online. Being the one who always want to be a bit different and have a bit more fun dressing up, I decided to go with gentleman rather than the obvious. Anyway this season, being Ms Dandy is such a forward look from our day to day working clothing to say a wedding dinner, perhaps:)

Finally, the most talked about collection that will hit the store on November 23 has launched its lookbook today. Lanvin X H&M. Still maintaining its Lanvin's class, this range speaks with a touch of fun and playfulness.

Wear the "T"

Using the "T" in tee shirt, the very talented Masashika Kawamura, designed a set of wearable tops for women (of course, male are also welcome to wear them with style). Using the silhouette of 5 famous typefaces; Helvetica, Caslon, Baskerville, Courier, and Cooper Black, Masashika, designed the tops based on the unique characteristic of each individual fonts. So, whats your font? I am definitely a Bakerville^^

its been awhile pals~

Life has been on the roller coaster lately. Well, since i am faced with it, i will have to be strong and fight along. i am sure it will get better:) My daily combo keeps me going...

London, you look like my dream~

It was a very quick, quick, fast, fast trip to London. Was there for a shoot therefore in the name of work, I can't stay long enough to explore this very familiar name, London. One day I shall be back there again and by then, i think i will feel more, see more, smell more of London. For now, these are the only images that will keep me dated with my memory of London.

Honesty in black and white.

when METAL tees speak a different language...

Its been awhile now, but i am still in love with those "angry, scary, fierce" tees that take a different role in my life. used to wear them to scare young children away but now i wear them with style. no longer that angry child that i once used to be.

Its been raining pretty often these days. And no one like it when you get into the office with wet, sticky and eventually stinky feet at the end of the day. So, protect your feet with a pair of boots (well, maybe its just another excuse to get a new pair of shoes^^).

Looking at these unconventional Dr Marten really make want to get them all. They are no longer just another pair black/brown boots that you might just wear once in a blue moon. Love those collaborations Dr Marten is having in the recent years. Keep up the good work, Dr. M^^
