Ora Unica
Memory sealed at:
Monday, November 09, 2009 Time: 9:05:00 AM
A watch for keeping time is becoming less and less a part of society. With many of us now looking at our mobile phones for the correct network calibrated time, the watch industry has seen a massive decline in sales over the past decade. Wearing a watch in 2008 is becoming more of a utilitarian fashion accessory, than a way to count the hours. Denis Guidone was just selected as the winner of the international design competition Adamo Eva. His whimsical scribble watch design called “Ora Unica”, meaning One Hour, is a wonderful contrast of chaos and order mixed together. In their words, “The hour and minute hands are represented by a single line drawn on two circular faces, which turn one inside the other. Both faces together resemble a graphical gesture, a doodle that changes as time passes.” So now you know what time it is… I think.
Designer: Denis Guidone
A twirly line that tells time...roughly.
Looks so sleek, so classy.
I tried to find online if it's possible to purchase it, but to no avail. :(

Juliette Has A Gun
Memory sealed at:
Sunday, November 08, 2009 Time: 7:28:00 PM
Last Friday was the launch party for French perfume, Juliette Has A Gun, at Black Market.
Terz and I was early so we decided to head for dinner and he brought me to Bumbu restaurant that specialises in Indonesian-Thai food.
He recommended the Bumbu Salad (which is century egg!!) and Tahu Telor. Normally, I don't eat century egg because the smell is too strong, taste too thick and I keep thinking about the repeated myth story of the making of century egg, it makes me sick. But anyway, I still gave this dish a try and it tastes great!
The overpowering taste of century egg is being neutralised by the fresh veggies, especially the coriander (something I don't even eat!), so the overall munching process is rather refreshing. This one goes great with their Olive Rice (big portion that can be shared among three people).
The Tahu Telor was crispy and hot, shiok.
It started to rain so we quickly sough shelter in Black Market, it was packed and stuffy. Most if not all of those who turned up dressed up to the nines in B/W theme of the lauch party. There were pan asian models who are taller than terz(1.78m?) by half a head. 0,0
We tried the samples on the shelves, comes in three flavours - Miss Charming, Lady Vengeance and Citizen Queen.
We didn't stay long enough for the lucky draw though. Hur.
I think this event is in conjunction with Jo Soh's recent release of her A/W Robot Girl collection. She's the owner of brand Hansel located at Stamford House.
Good designs don't come cheap. :(

Leggings and I
Time: 11:36:00 AM
On days when I simply refuse to use the epilator, I wish I own a few pairs of the Michael Angel leggings.
They are mad pretty (term picked up from MsVindicta)! People around me should know I rarely wear jeans, I feel that they wear me down, especially when I have to pair it with sneakers (yikes!). And now I'm on the lookout for leggings (since I split the last tie-dye pair I bought online).
M.I.S.S says that "these babies come in gorgeous holographic-esque prints and are covered in glimmering sequins...".
Sequins!! They are what I'm currently obsessed with.
-
Designers Shaun Samson & Shawn Kaleka of Costume Dept. have also got some serious leg fetish - in a fabulous way for leggings - too! Both of them started the brand with a variety of leggings/tights in bold prints. They all look absolutely stunning, and not to mention they look comfy too.
From TheLipstickDiary, Costume Dept. have expanded from just purely leg stuffs to now a full line of clothings for both genders.
Aaargh, why Singapore don't have?
Last but not least, I want this pair so badly:
Heh.
-
In other news, I ought to start wearing flats more often. I've been neglecting all the other shoes ever since 3 months ago. Now I only prefer to wear shoes that are at least 2.5". :( I wear them days a week because on the 7th I stay at home! 0,o

Jumpsuit by LNA
Memory sealed at:
Saturday, November 07, 2009 Time: 9:27:00 PM
How does this outfit looks to you?
It looks very common nowadays isn't it?
Oversize racer-back top and leggings. Neat.
But this outfit is in fact a one-piece jumpsuit (I don't think we can consider this one as that) by LNA. They really look like two separate pieces, but it's not. TheLipstickDiary thinks we're apparently getting lazier, but wait till you need to use the toilet urgently then you know. Heh heh heh. It hink that will require a lot of hard work to tear off. Maybe they can design in a slit at the back then cover with some frills or something.
Would you buy this for USD168? I won't. I still love my flea markets.
Speaking of which, do you know the upcoming one at Zouk tomorrow (8 Nov)?
Now you know.
(P.S I heard everything is going for $10!)

This was created in the process of learning how to create repeated patterns. I remember how we used to learn to draw them when I was Secondary One. One of my favourites. Very easy to score one. However, my shading sucked.
Aileen, if you’re reading this, I heard from your twin you can shade well. You want to teach me or not? Hee.
Oh by the way, I heard about Ris Low’s appearance on clicknet.tv’s show, she wore leopard printz is it true? That’s teh boomz. Smart move.
Have a Happy Halloween People!

爱心 Dinner
Memory sealed at:
Friday, October 30, 2009 Time: 12:41:00 PM
Are you like me who eats three meals a day outside on your own? Your family members don’t cook, either because they’re too busy, or simply can’t cook for nuts?
Then you and I rock the same boat. The only times where I have home cooked food now are the occasional visits to my grandma’s house.
Yep, it’s kinda sad to have all my meals outside. The elderly always say that they’re unhealthy etc, but there’s no choice. Eating out also means hard hits for my wallet. Every month, I have to spend more than half of what I earn on food.
Sometimes, I envy kids whose parents always cook for them. Some would finish their prepared lunch before heading out, some would rush home to have a good dinner, some would dread eating their mothers’ food. Well, you better start appreciating them. Wait till you’re stuck with the same Chup Chye Rice every night then you know.
I can’t recall the last time I had “ABC” soup.
But this was really good. The ingredients include potatoes, lean pork meat, (apparently some ginseng element as well), carrots and condiments. That tasted really good. J Aah. Shiok. Thank YOU for dinner!
Om nom nom.
