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^^

B.Y.O.B by PRADA

I remembered how my dad used to ask me "Are you a bag woman? Why do you need sooooo many bags?" Well, I still don't have an answer to that. My love for bags and shoes had spread like a "harmful" disease as the years go by. I am not a caterpillar but the amount of shoes i own is pretty amazing^^

Saw this series of cotton bag by PRADA and of course its making me itch like a mosquito bite. I am planning to head down to the shop after work to check it out, up close and personal. And who knows, I might just bring one home and add on to my collection^^
