Aye aye Captain!



This came in the post last week and now it's back from the dry cleaners. Remember my obsession with blazers and coats with contrast pipings? After a high and low search, scrolling thru pages after pages on ebay and etsy, this is the closest i found to what Blair Waldorf has. They may not be the perfect little coat like hers, but this is good enough. I got this from vintagemode on etsy, but it might not be vintage afterall. My mum thinks it looks formal and claims she used to have something like that (damnit! where is it mummy?). With those cute little collar, huge fabric buttons, fake contrasting pockets and sleeves, I wonder, which part of it screams formal? What the heck, vintage, formal or not, its adorable and I'm loving it.  

Now, what should i be wearing them with? Suggestions, suggestions! Can't wait to put them on.

obsession #224 - Blazer



I've been obsessing over blazers for a while now and i've thrifted one lately. But i can't keep my mind off the ones with contrasting piping details! As seen on Gossip Girl, worn by Chuck Bass and Blair Waldorf (aren't they perfect together?) as well as other bloggers (e.g Sarah and Karla, i love your blazers!). I want one of those!! I've been scrolling thru pages of vintage sites and came across this vintage piece by Christian Dior, going for AU$255 (gasp!).

cold turkey



I just finished watching Season one of Gossip Girl online, im hooked and i need more! Since when school uniform gotten so cool!? Im gonna miss those awesome headbands, candy colored stockings, bows and more bows! when will season two be showing! i need my fix!

I need to get more colored stockings, any recommendations on where i can find extremely solid stockings in red, yellow, orange, oooh those aqua green one looks great too! I got a pair of 120 denier purple stockings, thou it may be thick but their made for midgets! When removed from the packaging, its only one arm's length. It doesn't stay up, and kept riding down my hips cause its too short! and im not even tall to begin with.
