THE ROW'S SQUID SWEATER

I hailed the announcement of Mary kate & Ashley Olsen that they
will not appear on ''Full-House'' revival to focus on their fashion brand
(The Row and Elizabeth&James) and various business endeavors.

Well I wasn't a big fun of Full-House actually, however I've lately been so fascinated by
their amazing outfits. It's not easy to wear though, there's always something crisp and sophisticated that thrills me.
''Mary-Kate and I don' think about fashion as these clean, beautiful objects. We just kind of wear it and live in it.''
Ashley Olsen said on the interview for Marie-Claire.

In my belief, fashion is very much a wearable art form, one that captures and expresses desires and atmosphere
whether it's clean or not.
I love their clothes for that they clearly encourage me to wear what I want and knock on my head when it gets dull or old.

COURAGE TO COLLAGE

This skirt somewhat reminds me of an art class in high-school.
I liked collage more than oil or water color paintings.
Cut, tear, sew, paste, pick up letters......of a special person's initials.
Huuuh. Bitter sweet memories......

But anyway, I suppose I learned to mix colors or motifs back then.
That surely affects my taste that I have now.

CAPE TOWN

A statement piece I found lately: a knit top with a cape detail is
such a challenging piece as well as practical. It saves you from a tan
and cold air. (I'm sensitive to an air-conditioned room!)

I'm so much in love with this silhouette and color. This cape-top definitely adds
an element of drama and movement to your go-to styles.

TREND ALERT: LONG&LEAN

In my opinion it was ''normcore'' that brought about long&long/ big&big
line to the trend.
It's so fresh though a bit too difficult especially for small ladies like me.

The tips for avoiding looking dishevelled are to use colors, and try a pleated long
skirt. The flared hem would save you and elongate your frame effectively.

UPDATED NAILS

Here are my nails updated lately, with the pattern of imaginary flowers
and its seeds and fruits.
The space above the base of the nails is intentionally made in order to
create some vagueness.

 

NEO 70'S

Hi, guys!
Now this is the last day of my days in Phuket. Already missing this beautiful paradise.
However there's one thing I regret about my vacation. I lost my blue sunnies
(I wore in this post).
So sad. Because, you know, it's quite difficult to find a favorite sunglasses
as the trend goes to unique, sometimes odd in figure and colors.
Yeah.....it's way more cluel than ooops!

BLACK BELT

Inspired by the Oriental trend I've eyed on cat-walks such as 3.1 Phillip Lim,
Alexander Wang, Celine, or Marni, I tried my version over the streamlined silhouette.
Judo-style trousers, tied with a black belt look so fresh to me and this long&lean style
works so efficiently to elongate my frame. Simply love it!

A VINTAGE SAILOR DRESS

Hello, everyone!
Thank you for your lovely comments on the previous post.
Yes, I'm now having an amazingly lazy vacation!

The dress I chose today is a vintage piece I snapped on at Etsy.
As I'd checked the decor of this hotel (and so decided to stay!), I packed
this dress with good old stripes to pair with the marine-like decoration I find
here and there.

MY RESORT STORY

Hi! Greetings from beautiful Phuket!
I'm here on a long vacation, I brought a luggageful of outfits to enjoy this
resort mood
such as an Ao-dai inspired dress, printed mini skirt, vintage sailor dress......

Today I chose a kaftan top to create the rock edge. I'm in love with the long tail. As the print presents wings of a bat, I feel somewhat like I'm flying in the crisp air. Ha ha ha ha......!
Such nice juxtaposition of mode and ease!!
