My one and only loOong skirt makes itself useful as a strapless dress.
So many church weddings to sing for in December, and I've been cracking my lil head over what's appropriate to wear...
Last weekend saw me prancing around the shoe store at Le Meridien. Its Dr. Martens are going at a 15%-20% sale. I stood afixed in front of a pair of white 8-eye patent boots. I'm still counting the loose coins in my piggy bank.
Meanwhile, Front Row @ Ann Siang Hill is bringing the UK edition of neon Dr. Mars.
Argh... Stop giving me more choices!
I don't know if I really understand the idea of dressing for one's age. All you need is confidence, comfort and the pleasure of dressing.

Double-Buckle Belt: Uniqlo, Shanghai
Patent Heels with Gold Buckle Details: Shoe Loft
I've never found the right clothes match this gorgeous belt on. Everything seems awkward with this belt. But now with the high-waist swashy skirt trend, this belt comes in handy after all!
It's been a long two years since I purchased the belt from Uniqlo from one of my trips to Shanghai. I wandered through the stores for an hour or so and found absolutely nothing that impresses me. (Maybe I don't dig its T-shirts or it's a relatively new store without much variety) Then I saw the belt hanging off a rack in a quiet corner and I blew SG$35 at the snap of the fingers.

Donned in Paul Smith, Giorgio Armani and Dolce & Gabbana, the famous cartoon duo gets a makeover to promote the opening of a new Harvey Nichols store. Plasticine never looked so good.
And time for rugby. That's what Ralph Lauren's latest campaign wants you to know. Man, how I miss those days waiting around the field, watching the boys sprinting after the rugby ball and falling into whimsical reverie when they line up for the water cooler and cast you a naughty wink?
I sure wish it's school for me again...

Wouldn't you love to run into a guy like this at your nearest friendly Starbucks? =)
The diamonates of the dress which sits at the breast bone, came off during its last wash. So waisted belt to the rescue!

Jeans: Mango
Black Patent Peep-Toe Wedges: Anne Klein
I used to like the idea of tapered jeans at the ankles. Somehow now I don't. Or maybe it was bad alteration.
I don't know why I did it, but I rolled the cuffs of my odd-length jeans just to make away with the odd sight of the jeans tapering off right at my ankle. And it looks pretty good!
Today also marks the debut of my Anne Klein Wedges! It was bought, 6 months ago, in half size too small (50% sale! Die die must buy) and I have been stuffing the shoes with loads of damp newspaper. 'Pray tell that it fits,' as I slipped my feet into them and tada!
High-waisted skirts aren't the only ones dominating the women's torso these days. I like the shorts version too. The cuts and designs are certainly working to enunciate the coming of butts. Yes, backside, bum, butt whatever you call it. It has another name - sexy. Hah!
It's a pity that this pair of high-waisted shorts is a size too big for me. Otherwise...
