    in my head : eve , the apple of my eye - Bell X1

    it is 11:54 am and i am sleepy . i woke up at 9 am because SARAH NG jumped on me while i was blissfully asleep . yes , she's here , safe and armed with alcohol . waking up at 4 am is not human ; but for sarah we did it anyway . because if anyone can whine , it's that woman . she can whine about sleeping in the living room , she can whine about not getting picked up , she can whine about the cold and practically everything and anything , DESPITE the fact that we did have legit reasons for not going:
    • no one wakes up at 4 am .
    • the cab ride there is $50 one way and neither one of us is loaded .
    • it is not difficult to get to our house ; we live in the freaking city .
    • she landed at 5 am , 'nuff said .

    thankfully , kennethzzz is awesome and even borrowed the BIG ORCHID to pick her up . P was just too excited to sleep so he came along for the ride too .

    Photobucket
    oh hellooooooooooooooooooooo !

    Photobucket
    oh , my face sans makeup = REALLY BAD .

    Photobucket
    can my eyes get any smaller ?

    drunk drunk drunk

    wo moseeed on back to the apartment and then none of us could go back to sleep ( except kennethzzz , who went back to his place to crash ) so it was the introductory breakfast at degraves .

    Photobucket
    i can't really remember exactly WHERE we had breakfast because it was too early AND too cold .

    Photobucket
    the picture is a bit blurry , but you can see the joy on her face .

    Photobucket
    and it is somewhat of a minor thrill to arrive at little cupcakes when not even the frosting is on .

    Photobucket
    mmmmmmmmmm . .

    Photobucket
    1 for you and 1 for me , we're all a happy cupcake family !

    get your frost on !

    we were so tired after breakfast BUT couldn't sleep . sam's last minute replacement was a complete ass and didn't bother calling her to tell her she couldn't make it . as a result , sam and to rush to work at the last minute and well , the faux neck-cramping colleague GOT FIRED . rah and i took to the streets of melbourne where a fury was unleashed at supre ( $211 to be exact ) . i think after all that action we were ready to fall asleep on our feet and so we decided against having dinner out - girls night IN with home made pita pizzas and yenson's soya milk .

    Photobucket

    Photobucket
    that is a little slice of heavenly goodness .

    Photobucket

    those two , eat like mice ; sam only ate the toppings and sarah ate half of the pizza and the remaining toppings from the other half . I FINISHED THE WHOLE THING AND WAS SO HAPPY . : D

    i wore -

    knotted shoulder top : avec girls ( stocked at general pants if anyone is interested )
    jacket : dotti ( thrifted at camberwell )
    giant gold rose ring : diva
    studded jeans : DIY-ed painfully and slowly after finding this from topshop
    feet : topshop

    to walk about the cold streets of melbourne .


    xoxoxoxoxo ,
    soho , is kinda falling asleep on her book on language disorders .
    ps : this post is mostly for adri + fizzles who're in singerssss , we missesss you guys !

  2. in my head : my love - justin timberlake

    Photobucket
    if i wrote you a love note . .

    so you know that he really loves you if he sends you HIS BRAND NEW Mhi by maharishi flannel plaid shirt that you raved about over skype because it was truly awesome looking even though skype made it look all grainy and washed the colours all out .

    Photobucket
    i wore -

    flannel shirt : Mhi by maharishi
    spartan tights : james lillis
    feet : wittner

    to class .


    Photobucket



    flannel is so ridiculously warm and made me want to fall asleep during class . i say bring on the chill , i'm all prepared .

    speaking of these spartans , i wore them to class yesterday and i guess melbournians just don't get bright + shiny . i got the most jaw dropping reaction from a guy in my linguistics class ( according to claire , he did a double take and just stared as a i walked in ) and the folks on the tram were staring at them quizzicaly , like they didn't quite get them . it's okay though , i promise to make sure that james lillis is a household name because i like the work that he's doing and i want him to keep doing it . hopefully when he's all famous and being stocked at belinda and cactus jam he won't forget the original groupies who supported and gushed about his amazing-ness .

    i forgot to mention this yesterday BUT i drove for the first time in heels . completely scary and i thought i was going to over accelerate because i couldn't really feel the pedals . in the end i survived but i think more practice is in order .

    xoxoxoxoxo ,
    soho snug in maharishi ; thinking of dpz .

  3. in my head : breaking the ice - mojave 3

    yesterday i was feeling really down and under ( no pun intended ) and completely was not in the mood to prance around in my spartans . what exactly are spartans you ask ? if you're not following the down low over here , then you are missing out . anyway , since winter is literally on my doorstep and banging hard , i figured that these'll help me get through the coldest of days very stylishly . we seem to have completely by passed autumn and headed full on into winter .

    Photobucket
    i know you're thinking how could i ever wear a crop top out if it is as cold as i say it is , BUT i wore a really thick jacket with it AND with these spartans , i would never insult them by wearing just any old skivvy .

    Photobucket
    the bracelets are mostly f21

    Photobucket
    james oh james , you make many a girls' heart a flutter .

    Photobucket
    behold , the true beauty that is black and gold .

    Photobucket
    i wore -

    cropped knotted sleeved top : i promised never to tell
    vintage bandage skirt : kookaii
    spartan tights : james lillis

    to school .


    Photobucket
    can you see the knots ?

    Photobucket
    and the hugest of hugest flower ring from diva .

    oh ! how i wished my pins looked like the model wearing them on his site ( she's 6' 2" ) but unfortunately they're nothing like hers . also , they're very well made ( which i am so grateful for ) but very delicate and since he sent me a note saying that i can't " dig my fingers into the gold and yank ( horror of horrors ! how did he know that's exactly how i put on my tights ?! ) it up when putting them on " , it took me awhile to put them on this morning .



    now i don't really have the money but . . .

    in my head : the end's not near - band of horses

    like the title of this post suggests , my end is here . i've pretty much had the most horrible week but i'm not going to elaborate because lord knows that you guys don't need to feed off my bad week . i know it is only monday ( please don't remind me ) . suffice to say , looks like i will be making a trip to toorak for no reason at all and i hope that maybe kennethzz can be convinced to perhaps provide a ride ? we'll see how it goes . . kennethzz said okay ! i'm ever so grateful for friends like these . : D

    i love surprise parties , even if they're not mine . saturday we gathered at sergio's place for ashley's surprise bash . ah , to be twenty-one again .
