Only one thing to say. MUSIC WAS AWEZOMM.

Ok super overdue post.

Chelle asked that I join the Project Muffstit Tee-Up contest about 2 weeks ago,
and my immediate reply: SURE why not, sounds like fun!

Any excuse to play stylist and dress up, hee.

But then I was having exams, a high fever, life is hard yadi yadi yadaa dunnowhats and anyhoos I got so busy with, until I thought I missed the deadline already hm, I could’ve sworn I did.
I must have been mistaken or they extended the deadline, hee!

The rule is simple. Dress yourself up in any way, any how, using a plain white tee.

So you can imagine how many looks you can create with that! And it’s hard to just stop with one look, aye? ;)

So I stared at my wardrobe, rubbed my palms together with tongue sticking out, and let my creative juices flow, hee hee.

Look 1 : The Sloppy Joe

Jeans: Bettina Liano
Shoes: Converse
Watch: Casio
Scarf: a gift

Because I have days when I feel like dressing up like a tomboy, duduk terkangkang and swear like a sailor. Which is almost everyday.
And spit too. *oiikk ptooi*

EDIT: im thinking of renaming this look to ‘The Gingerfish‘ I just realised, my god, this is totally how he dresses! Except he doesn’t half-tuck the shirt in like I do

:+:+:

Look 2 : Parisian Doll

Striped tube: online shop
High knee socks: Soxworld
Red ballet shoes: Cotton On

And other times I feel sweet, demure, and don’t feel like duduk-ing terkangkang.
Those days I put on some lip colour, wear a dress, and bat my eyelashes like crazy.

:+:+:

Look 3: Artsy Fartsy

Long vest: Bijou Bazaar
Denim shorts: Miss Selfridge
Floral stockings: online shop
Ballet flats: Cotton On
Necklace: boutique on Telawi Street
Bangles, stone ring: Diva

Neither tomboy nor girly, this one’s a bit of a Casual Sunday look, meets artsy fartsy, meets rockstar! Haha i have no idea, ok bad description. Just my definition of rojak with style. :)

:+:+:

Look 4: Innocent Burlesque

Striped tube: online shop
High waisted pants: Bangkok
Heels: Blay
Bag: Vintage
Bangles and charmbracelet: Diva

I have a recent infatuation towards burlesque these days. I find them very sexy and feminine, and you don’t even have to go all the way like Dita Von Teese, or even Fafi
Just get a cute bustier tubetop or babydoll, and pair it with shorts. Too cute.
I wore this same outfit before (minus the white tee) and I must say I loved it :)

:+:+:

And I would have continued playing with more looks, but my sister (camerawoman) was getting tired and cranky so I had to stop there la :(

And I will have to put up with more of Little Miss Crankypants these days because SHE RECENTLY GOT BRACES and she complains a lot.
“My teeth hurts…. I cannot eat real food…. I’m hungry and I cannot eat real food…. wuwuwu….”

Poor girl.

My initial plan was to point and laugh at her and carry out my sisterly duties of ridiculing her with names like metal mouth, brace face, train tracks, etc
(i know right, im horrible. But EH ONCE IN A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY OK)

But I decided to let it go since she’s in so much pain, and hungry all the time.
I can’t decide which one sucks more, being in pain or being hungry.

Currently listening to: Alanis Morissette – Not As We

   Being hungry! hahahaa
   I sound like such a glutton. :p
   Michelle looks SO much like Agyness Deyn!
   And you were SO Fafi for Halloween….
   right down to the stripes and hearts on the cheek.
   Yeah, I realise this comment reeks of bimbo-ness…. but…. I MISS YOU CYNTHIA ONG!
