Curiousity Bought the Cat

Monotonous: having a single color: a cat with a monotone coat.


Only recently, I bought a cat sweater in this cute little store downtown. It was quite reasonably priced as well - ONLY FOUR MOOLAHHSS ($4) WOWWA. It has these cute burgundy-root beet red colored cats on it. I've decided to wear it for school tomorrow so that outfit post will be posted tomorrow, but for now I just wanted to show it to you guys. 

I really like the nail polish I'm using. And my hair is getting really long.
(Thrift cowboy hair clip, Thrift cat sweater, Zara shorts)

SO. CUTE. Look at the cats and all its monotonous goodness.

This little hair accesory is a hair clip. I've never actually worn it out before, so I just put it on randomly.

It looks glittered - but its actually just suede.

I'm really excited to be heading back to Jakarta in 4 days time actually. I really can't wait to go round town and shop at the GOODS dept., just opened but its packed with local indonesian designer stuffs. I have high hopes for this store.

I'M BACK

Quick Update:
I'm back guys! Singapore was amazing, THIMUN was amazing, shopping was amazing. I will do a post as soon as I get home on the shopping ;) and the whole trip with pictures :)

Ciao,
Tamara.

Old and New

Old: (used especially of persons) having lived for a relatively long time or attained a specific age.

I've unearthed my old top from Zara which I thought would go together with my new heels :)

Pardon my retarded head (was going to write hair.. but then that was not the only thing that was retarded, so yeah my whole head).

Had a busy weekend, and you can see the exhaustion from my face and hair. I also love that skirt I'm wearing which I bought in a thrift store here called Tracy's. It's got marilyn monroe prints on them.

My mom also got me a new pair of boots downtown. They're very cute :) Thanks mom :)



Ciao,

Tamara.

Studded Fringe

Studded: dotted or adorned with or as with studs or nailheads; usually used in combination; "star-studded heavens"; "diamond-studded belt".

This weekend is a long weekend for me :) So Wenny and I went out downtown to go shopping and to just chill. This is the outfit that I was wearing today:

I am wearing:

1. Mom's knit dress/shirt

2. Zara print jeans

3. Aldo black wedges

4. Classic Louis Vuitton bag

Was just going for simple and casual, and threw in a pinch of fall color there with the shirt. Sporting my usual asian-bun look.

I also went by Aldo again and bought the other pair of heels that I was talking about last weekend. They were still there, thank god, and it was on sale so. Feast your eyes on these 5-inch fringey, studded goodness:

They look like these super sexy ankle boots 'cause they go a little higher up my ankle, but they're not. Yum.


Spoil yourselves sometimes,
Tammie.

MUST. UPDATE. FALL/WINTER. WARDROBE.

Wardrobe: A wardrobe usually referes to a complete set of clothing consisting of multiple items. Generally referring to the males clothing needs. A wardrobe will usually consist of suits, slacks, shirts and shoes both casual and formal.
I CANNOT wait to go to Singapore. Well, first and foremost, of course because of the THIMUN conferences. Got to make time to make the world a better place. Ha! The approved resolutions do get sent to New York to be reviewed.

Aside from that though, I NEED SOME NEW CLOTHES. Okay, I may not need new clothes, I have plenty already... I want? I need me some assymetrical dresses, checked/plaid dresses, brown belts, boots, scarves, COATS, clogs.. I wonder if I'll be able to get some good bargains...

Here are some inspirations for my fall wardrobe:

Some Jacquard dresses... These are absoultely adorable

and I need me some ankle boots.

Those heels are gorgeous.

How can I buy all these on a tight budget?? I can't wait to graduate and get a good (well-paid) job.

Saving up,
Tammie.

Well Suited.

Suit: a set of garments (usually including a jacket and trousers or skirt) for outerwear all of the same fabric and color; "they buried him in his best suit".

That's such a boring definition for a suit! Same fabric and color?? That's definitely the kind of things I try to avoid, especially when wearing suits. I like to dress formal, but just not so monotonous and so predictable you know? Add a little personality here and there won't hurt. 

Went on a shopping trip with my mother today downtown ('cause I needed some new clothes for the THIMUN conferences coming up in Singapore anyways). My objective was to get me a pair of new shoes and some clothes for the conferences.

I definitely had a successful day!
Check out the new stuff that I bought:

These adorable Aldo black wedges. Love them so, so much. You have no idea how comfortable they are. Also check out that detail - fur on the side. I bought this for around 70 US$. There was this other creme pair which I adore and it was on sale, but I think I'll go back next weekend to get it.

Mango cream-brown sunnies with opaque prints on the side. These were 50 US$ around. I can wear them while shopping in Singapore :)

And last but not least:

A high waist and your average cream top from Mango.

Put them all together and you get...

 All works together quite well yeah?

I threw in a Longchamp bag in there because it works. Everyone needs a Longchamp in their life.

Get some Longchamps!,

Messenger Bags (Old School Style)

Messenger Bag: A messenger bag (also called a courier bag) is a type of sack, usually made out of some kind of cloth (natural or synthetic), that is worn over one shoulder with a strap that winds around the chest resting the bag on the lower back.

Today, I went out with a couple friends after school to visit this boutique downtown called "Fedora". It has this charming little vintage vibe and has the most adorablest bags and shoes.

Naturally, I bought a couple (old school) messenger bags which I have been wanting since FOREVER for like $10-$20. So cheap. Here are some pictures:

As you can see already, the style of the bag and tags is very vintage influenced. Love it.

 

Above is the picture of the first messenger bag. Bought this bag for around 380,000 vnd, which is around $20 US. Absolutely adorable, I will take it with me to Singapore for sure.

 

 The first black bag is twice the size of this one. This bag is around 275,000 vnd, which is around $15 US. SO CHEAP RIGHT? And its absolutely adorable. There is a knit pattern on the front and back while the body itself is leather.

 

Sometimes thrifting at the right stores can be quite productive.

 

Take care,

Tammie.
