Katrantzou for Topshop

FINALLY, the day has come. Of course, I am no where in a position where I could get my hands on some of these lovely items but boy, if I could - I would. I think it's only available in the UK as wellMary Katrantzou is one of my favorite, favorite, favorite designers and her collaboration with Topshop is the stuff of dreams. I literally could cry right now just because of how beautiful these clothes are (and also because of how much I want them). These pieces are out on February 17th, with prices ranging from 40 to 350 pounds. Mark your calendars guys!

Who Says Baggy Jeans Are Only For Boys?

Baggy: not fitting closely; hanging loosely; "baggy trousers"; "a loose-fitting blouse is comfortable in hot weather"
"Are you sure those pants are your size?"
"Why are you wearing pants that are too big for you?"

Haha, some of the reactions I got for wearing these jeans but they were made to look baggy. They're exactly my size, but the crotch/back seam is lower. I've always wanted to get myself a pair of boyfriend jeans or baggy jeans but could never find one that was the perfect size until now! Thank you Zara for creating amazing pants (that fit).

Perfect amount of sagging on the back, so it doesn't look too baggy.



I love travelling to new places, I just don't like the process of it. Do you know how tiring it is to travel? Airport transits, airplane food, everything is such a big hassle and it tires me out so much (or maybe since I do it so many times in a year it's not even funny) but seriously. I wish there was a one-way plane ride to every country in the world so we don't have to transit. You know what else I hate? That you need to pretty much strip naked, take out all the contents in your bag, put all of them in separate freaking containers because who knows I might have explosive mentos or something just to get on the freaking plane, put all my watery liquids in a plastic bag that can't weigh more than a feather. THANK YOU TERRORISTS, I hope you're happy now that you've revolutionized airport security. I guess better safe than sorry huh? Sorry for this rant but I just flew back to Hanoi yesterday and realized how much I hated it (being in airports all day). I can't imagine how my friends deal with it when they go back to their home countries halfway around the world. I usually only take half a day to get to Jakarta. Imagine people going to the USA or Europe.


Love how there's a giant suspending digital clock after every meter or so.

Who knew my balcony provides the most beautiful natural lighting for pictures (that actually sounds so obvious it's dumb),

Retro: A fashion reminiscence of the past.


I saw this dress while browsing online awhile ago, and I came across it in Zara Hong Kong. I'm sure glad I did.

(Zara asymmetrical sequined dress, forever 21 bracelets, Topshop wisteria wedges)

I'm really digging the bell shaped sleeves. It's very retro and sort of cocktail party-esque. The sequined details are very delicate. I LOVE THIS DRESS. Of course, my wisteria wedges goes very well with the dress.

 


Digging them retro pieces,
Tammie.

Wisteria Wonderland.

Wisteria: any flowering vine of the genus Wisteria

I don't even want to know what genus means. Haha, probably some plant related science-y name. Wow, I sound really dumb just now.
Anyways, these Topshop LIMITED EDITION Brand New Wisteria Chiffon Tie Wedge Heels (3 5.5 36 Rare) are in my possession. I have been drooling over Wisteria heels since for as long as I've known they existed, and I got my hands on the last pair in MY SIZE.

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, feast your eyes on these new heels. The chiffon material fits perfectly on my feet and provides a comfortable padding. These heels look dangerously tall but believe it or not they are THE most comfortable pair of heels I have ever had/tried on/wore. Ever. The heels itself is about 12.5cm tall (around 5 inches). The covering is this light plum/pink suede and light as a feather. I can jump in them, I can run in them, I can go trekking with them if I have to but I won't because I don't want to ruin these heels.

My best splurge I would have to say, and of course my prized possesion. Goes well with everything. Especially my new ballet maxi skirt.

I can't wait to wear these babies around town.

Excited,
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.
