It's been a while...


 ...since the sun last came out (it's been so gloomy in hk!!)
and yes it's been a while since we last updated our blog with an outfit post :P

wellll. sorry for the under-maintenance... we have been rather busily occupied. 
Sorry, blog. We didn't mean to leave you there like an orphaned child for almost a month.

anyway, here we are in skirts and dresses to uh, well, celebrate the lovely sunny weather. LOL.

On teree:




I actually like how the skirt looks marbled instead of tie-dyed. And the bracelet i'm wearing here is actually made with bent vintage spoons!

DIY Galaxy T-shirt

Sometimes when you find old T-shirts too lame to wear, re-designing it can be a great idea. I just found one so I used acrylic to DIY a galaxy T-shirt for myself. Hope you guys find this tutorial useful! :)



Tools I use: Palette, Small paint brush, Acrylic (colour: Phthalo Blue, 
Blue Lake, Brilliant Red, Titanium White, Ivory Black)

Firstly, put a plastic sheet between the front and the back of your 
T-shirt to prevent the penetration of colour. draw a big black triangle
 which is big enough to cover the original pattern. (You may use ruler 
to draw the frame first.)


Secondly, choose a reference picture and use your favourite colours to
 draw the basic shape of the galaxy.

Thirdly, add the glory of some lightest stars so that they will 
look like glowing.


Finally, randomly add the stars and more glory. It is done! 

  xx Tips: A toothpick can be useful in drawing tiny stars xx

Hope you enjoy this tutorial! Good luck in DIYing your own galaxy T-shirt<3

Andy Warhol's soup

Being a fan of pop art, I was actually pretty thrilled when Uniqlo brought to us a collection of clothes themed "American Art of the 80s", which included shirts printed with works of Keith Haring and Andy Warhol (!!). So... purchasing the campbell's soup tank top was almost a natural thing for me to do ;p





paired with Zara TRF denim jacket and bag from Pull & Bear

Indian Flamboyance

Recently I discovered a fantastic Indian brand Manish Arora. As the first time to see Indian high fashion,  the design completely stunned me! With a taste of exotic, the delicate, flamboyant and colourful design is like a fantastic dream. I especially love the dreamy pastel colour and the splendid details.

The designer, Manish Arora, was born and raised in New Delhi. In college, he first studied Commerce but later changed to Fashion Design. He launched his own brand Manish Arora In 1997. You may find out more at his official website: http://www.manisharora.ws
