shiny slip-ons from jenjum gadi's ss14 show.

tent-y top, big enough to hide your secrets and mine.
just the most beautiful editorial i've seen in a while.

these days

things on my mind:

 nikhil d's debut collection for 11.11 is a line of bespoke, free size t-shirts that look like something that might have belonged to you since forever.
lookbook shot by colston julian.
entirely recycled, the t-shirts have been patched together with archival fabrics of 11.11 and dyed over.
the custom tags for each t-shirt are made of cereal boxes that nikhil has been collecting for the past few months.
my hair reached this stage thanks to a freak accident at the salon. but now that i'm here...
i'm biding my time, looking for someone who actually enjoys cutting short hair.
long hair isn't for me.
prada/ stella mccartney
the hunt for thick rubber sole shoes is on.
collecting things that billow in the wind. drama.

gape

this poster was a birthday gift. after a brief struggle, it is finally up.
a sense of calm in my bedroom.
calm was the last thing i was feeling while watching the latest episode of game of thrones.
if someone had told me 3 years ago, that i would be love the show, i would have bet my life he/she was wrong.
funny, how you never know what you may or may not like. 
in ode to #GOT, i'm wearing chainmail-like knit by savio jon + hand-me-down rock pendant.

ebb and flow

working on creating a custom wardrobe that pretty much consists of basic, fluid silhouettes like this, with a young friend.
feels like freedom.

habitat

wearing this print after about 2 years, i honestly thought i was done with it.
but i had this fabric lying around so i figured, why not?
my green babies- jade, seedy and polka
still getting used to it.
this picture was my core inspiration when i started doing up my apartment.
there is plenty more where it came from: eefjedeconinck

terrible tourist

view from our hotel room at sunrise
my room mate, akrati still in bed
view from our hotel room in the afternoon
chinatown jaunt
singaporean soda vending machine
the art of brick exhibition by nathan sawaya; one of the nicest things on this trip
in zen mode / this bag is my favourite acquisition from the trip
apart from the stony $2 dinner plates from ikea
i went to singapore and thankfully i didn't travel alone.
98% of the pictures are courtesy porus and akrati, my co-travellers on the trip. 
i was too lethargic to take pictures. when i did snap out of it, my camera died on me. 
shit happens.
