on a lighter note
amidst all this sadness..i was trying to look at somethiing positive or light hearted to focus on..and what else besides fashion. i think about it all the time. on the train, when i'm eating, during my free time...ok la..almost all the time
i was just pondering about it the other day and i realised that almost everyone is wearing the same thing. ballet flats, leggings, empire waisted tops, belt on their waist, not hips,prints etc,etc actually it's kind of silly of me to think like this. every decade is defined by what people wear, the trends they follow ie. almost everyone follow dresses the same way all the time. get my drift?
and i dun want to be like that... i dun want to follow the trends.but some trends are worth it. i mean ballet flasts are seriouly heaven sent. finally somethign stylish and comfortable to walk around school with.and i think it has been around for quite some time. so i do pray for th etrend to be over and for it to just return to being just simply stylish.
and..i realise that i should re-invent myself. which i must say is not very easy due to one very very important factor. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$..yes yes..the root of all evil. i mean if u follow trends it's easier on your pocket because the clothes are mass producde to meet demands. so ya, for me to re-invent myself. it would take much patience, savings and most of all creativity.
so the first thing i did was got myself a style icon to replace my present ones who you are going to roll on th efloor laughing when u hear who they are. omg, wth..lets' just say it. my style icons WERE the olsen twins. well they are stylish u noe. i mean they did start the layering trend. but ya la. now i have a new style icon..and it is non other then the ever stylish AUDREY HEPBURN. God i love her. her style is so simple, chic, feminine. i simply love it. i mean she was the one who wore the epitome of the LBD. have u seen her in breakfats at tiffanys? even her nightgown was impecably stylish. it was actually more of a night dress. well i am still doing research on her. but i love her. so so much. and i hope that i can be half as stylish as she ever was.
so anw..i made a list of things i'm going to avoid buying anymore.
so for me there will be no more...
1. Empire waist tops
2. prints
3. bright, bright colours
4. long necklaces
and there will more of
1. block colours
2. muted colours
3. clothes that fit me well
sighs no more buying anything cheap i find at bugis street although i will not swear off that place.
double sighs :) i love fashion...
