Heaps of apologies for not having updated in absolute aaaages!

Now that I’ve completely recovered from the post-holiday mood, however, I’m totally back, promise. Hello Reality!

So kicking off this new year, I’d like to share a not so outfit-centered post, cause I’ll be talking more about one of the gifts I’ve received so lovingly this past holiday- the Diana F+ Gold Edition!

SPARKLYYY, I KNOW.

I can definitely not be more in love with this camera. It seriously screams retro Hollywood glamour.

With this camera, you just can’t resist putting together a matching outfit to go with it simply for the sake of passively boasting how pretty you’d look.

Also, I was more than happy when I received this camera together with a matching bracelet!

MORE SPARKLE + GOLD

Paired with my love for all things vintage, this camera CANNOT be any more perfect for me!!

Vintage Earrings + Vintage Clip

Vintage BVLGARI Watch

Vintage TOD’S

Vintage vintage vintage galore!

I’m pretty much a total amateur at film cameras, so don’t mind me, but I do think that the Diana produces photographs no less pretty than it is.

Here’s just a couple of photographs I got taken

What do you guys think?

Lemme know!

Bonjour mes chéris! How are we all doing?

It’s the Christmas season yet it hasn’t stopped the sun from shining like there’s no tomorrow where I’m at. Not complaining though, it’s always a great day to go out!

So I threw together this lazyish outfit the other day when I was about to head out with some of my mates-my navy high waisted trousers, a plain tank and a loose denim top over it. Pretty plain huh? But its amazing what a whole bunch of accessories can do to spice your outfit up to a whole new level.

It’s something I do a lot, actually, especially when I don’t exactly feel like putting toooo much deep thoughts into my outfit or when I’m rushing out.

Although sometimes it doesn’t have too be so much about *laziness* or lack of time, either. It’s a great idea as well when you’re going for a casual day out. Cause the plain clothing says “Hey, I’m just here to have some fun and chill out y’know?” while the bunch of accessories doesn’t let you miss out on looking FABZZzz.

Things to note though, when I say plain, you’ve still got to make SOME effort in looking chic. DON’T look sloppy! Remember, we’re lazy but we don’t want to look lazy. We don’t want to end up looking like hobos, comprende? Also, don’t go overboard with the bunching of accessories. What I like to do is to pick only one type of accessory, and bunch! For this outfit for example, I used a pile of my gold necklaces!

So here are some pictures of me in my outfit:

Aahhh, this bag I’m using! It’s a Bitsy Flower Straw Mini Bag by Kate Spade. How cute is it?

So what do you think of this look?

So I’ve been getting quite an infinite amount of comments from people around me (particularly the people from my French class) that I have a naturally old-looking face.. Okay well they didn’t actually say “old”-they said “matured”, and they insisted that “matured” isn’t just a kinder-sounding synonym for “old”. But whatever. They also commented on the fact that I use too much black, and that black makes me look even older more matured than I already presently do.

So yeah, I attempted to cut down on that, tried jumbling together an all-color ensemble, and as a result, I couldn’t help but laugh at myself upon realizing that I looked like a total clown. So no, eliminating dark colors from my wardrobe definitely won’t be an option.

Of course I tried some of the other stereotypical methods-cutting down on makeup, brighter nail polish, letting down my fringe blah-dee-blah-dee-blah… Did they work? No. Still as non-youthful-looking as ever.

Oh and o-m-g, I even tried using a bow?! Of course I didn’t actually go out in public in the bow. Just took a look at myself in the mirror in this bow and immediately chucked it aside. Why? I looked like the most retarded blob of confusion in the whole entire universe in a bow. I mean, seriously! Have you actually seen me in a bow? NO. And you never will!!!!

So not only did I not succeed in any of these ridiculous attempts, I realize that I eventually shifted into the shoes  of a completely personality-wise-confused adolescent. Well, an old-looking personality-wise-confused adolescent.

Light girly make up, bright sparkly nail polish, cutesy shwooshy fringes and bows just isn’t my game-and I guess I just can’t do anything about that!

So to conclude this unnecessary predicament, I’ve pretty much just given up on looking younger!

INSTEAD, I’ll be focusing on another predicament-looking like less of a bitch. Yes, I’ve been getting a lot of comments about that too… People always tend to hate me at first glance. Either that, or they just find me unapproachable.

I know I should just smile more, but I’m not sure how I can do that without looking like a freak!

So I haven’t actually come up with a solution to this , but my first step was using more feminine, softer-looking clothing. Oh and curling my hair!

So check out my outfit, and tell me what you think : ) *SMILESSSSSSSS* : )
