A Kind of Wunder

I was browsing through the collections at style.com when I stumbled across Wunderkind. What I really liked from the collection (aside from the whimsical colours and prints) were these silhouettes:



Flirty, floaty dresses matched with tomboy-ish hats and boots. And those below-the-knee stockings! So very, very cute.

Happy Sunday

So, some spare cash trickled in from an odd job I did for an ex-colleague of mine, and I decided it was time to go shopping. I mentioned in a previous post that I was saving up for these River Island heels, but as it turns out, they weren't as comfortable as I remembered. For the price (SGD240), I felt that they weren't a very good investment, gorgeous as they are. In the effort to forget my disappointment, I went window-shopping, not expecting to see anything particular... AND THEN I FOUND THESE:


Gray, suede, comfortable, and just what I had in mind - for less than half the price of the other shoes I wanted to buy! I love these so much, I just had to do an outfit post about it. Btw, this is the first time I've ever used the self-timer on my camera. That was a learning experience in itself. I guess that means more outfit posts in the future, and you can definitely expect these booties to show up again!

P.S.
Hui, I haven't forgotten the bag. Wait till i get my scholarship allowance. I'll ignore my food, transport and other needs and buy you a Givenchy Nightingale instead. Because, well, priorities. My friends have to look good.

Dear Rachel,

I know you love me very much. As it happens, I happen to love myself very much too. So why don't you just get me that lovely bag I was talking about as well as the very chic, very simple present that you hope will rock my socks off. As you know, I don't wear socks very often, so it will rock the next best thing off me - perhaps my t-shirt? You might have to give me the present in private.

P.S. I have decided to start tagging these posts as Dear..., because I think they should be tracked, for future reference needs, should we need a good laugh.

Always waiting on your gift debts,
Hui

sore wa... chotto...

Dear Hui,

As you know, I love you very much:

and I would gladly trade in the shades and shoes for the Maison Martin Margiela sac bag because it is truly gorgeous and you deserve it. However, I doubt the gifts you have given me will fetch a good enough price on eBay as second-hand items (lovely as they are), to cover the cost of that beautiful pink satin. Besides, I still love them dearly (I just wore the shades yesterday and they still make me feel like a million bucks). Also, I have gotten you a very chic, very simple present that I hope will rock your socks off.

Love,
Rachel

tomodachi desu kara..

Dear Rachel,

This is the Maison Martin Margiela Small Satin Sac Bag. There is one in black but it's in leather so I don't really want that (although it's fine if you should so choose). As my birthday draws near, and as this product is on sale, please get it for me. In red, as shown in the picture. It is much appreciated. Should you not have enough money, you may sell your Chanel shades or your silver wedges. I will not be upset.

Arigatou gozaimasu

Gros bises,
Hui
