trendy trendy

By wen | Published: August 20, 2009

meteor showers

By wen | Published: August 12, 2009
There’s a meteor shower going on right now. I am mathematically convinced it’s contributed to what has been a high state of crazy as far as my moods have been. When in doubt, blame anger problems on SPACE. Maybe these delicious new Frye boots knew all of this was coming. First spied this in Anthropologie’s latest [...]

It’s turning out to be one of those work weeks, the ones where you get off work at 9 pm and there are still people at the office making you feel like a total slacker to be leaving as early as 9 pm and all you want to do is get in your car and [...]

dream shoes, true dream shoes

An ocean of sighs. Don’t think I’ve forgotten about you, Isabel Marant studded boots. Since I first clapped eyes on you weeks ago I haven’t been able to stop thinking about you. But I’d always assumed it was going to be doomed, unrequited love withstanding a sudden whirlwind trip to Paris: Marant goods are notoriously [...]

リラックスするには落ち着く音楽を聞く必要があるかもね？今日のオススメはフランス語好きなmondialitoです。junko（vo）と笛岡俊哉（compose）のボサノバみたいな音楽を聞いてくつろげる I’ve a fatal weakness for the very lovely French language and apparently so does Japanese band mondialito. Composer Toshiya Fueoka met vocalist Junko in 2002 and mondialito was born. Boosting delicate vocals sung entirely in French, the gently acoustic electronica music has a certain special charm to it.

Crew, Chanel, Imitation of Christ, Ya Ya Clothing, and Twelth St by Cynthia Vincent, she launched her own line in Spring 2009. And she’s my age…! I’m head over heels for her gorgeously sophisticated, somewhat androgynous minimalist silhouettes. Am also seriously considering these [...]

motocross jeans

By wen | Published: July 27, 2009
I’ve got a new rule for jean buying, which is pretty much that I can’t buy any new jeans unless they are somewhat unique (I have the same pair of Uniqlo skinnies in 3 different colours- though can you blame me, they’re as comfortable as leggings… even so, though…).
