next up in the festive period lineup shall be the lunar new year. it falls on valentine's day. it's customary to buy everything new for the new year, right down to your negligee. so that means more reason to shop! lol. i've stopped following the custom for a long time (right down to my negligee). some shops are already blasting out 咚咚呛music. my friend refused to enter a shop when she heard the noise from outside. lol.

i wasn't lemming for the shoes but tried them on as they went well with the drop-crotch asymmetrical bottoms i was eyeing. i didn't get any clothes nor shoes in the end. just too expensive. the pants fit better than the ones i bought from the same shop sometime back, what a shame. i hope to continue with less wastage in 2010 - sounds like a new year's resolution that can go either way..

asymmetrical pants

^friendly studs. 

if i were in the xperimentos phase again, i'd probably get the wedges. the left pair looks like a pair i got from HK many ions ago, minus the bling. there was a time i'd wear chunky ah lian platform shoes; some were from HK and some bought locally. what's stopping me now? my age and the fact that they're too trendy (and too common.. shh!) :P

BUT. i lied and spoke thru my backside (again). i got me some accessories. i dunno why i lapse into this phase time and again. i just buy and hide them away anyway. i still have those i bought from HK many ions ago. chunky necklaces are trendy again so i should let them see the light of day.

 

^i was mostly attracted to the grey and brass colours.

  

^i'm thinking of clipping the brooch to an elastic headband. too cutesy? it might just sit in my boudoir again, lah. i'm not into bejewelled stuff, never was, but i go weak when i see transparent cubes. heh.

i should keep track of my expenses diligently again. i think i will get myself a set of new drums.
