RAF SIMONS ASTRONAUT BOOTS

I hate Gil because he always has the sickest kicks. GRRR. The Astro boot comes with an external pocket pouch with zip fastening. I can think of a million things I can put in there. My phone. My lipstick. My coins. haha. But then it would weigh a ton. Maybe thats why its called astro shoes. It's suppose to defy gravity. Wotevs. I likey.

The silver ones are fresh off the Spring Summer 2009 runways. Droooool.

And another Raf Simons collab with Fred Perry. Coolnest.

AND ALL THE CHICA LADIES

So sleek and polished. I heart.

THE BLAZER

This look is favored by a lot of local fashion editors and it's easy to see why, it is sleek masculine tailoring that's edgy but still feminine at the same time. Liking that spo'-o'-color on the upturned hem of the jacket and the distressed mini. The peep toe booties finish it off with a rock edge vibe.

I WANT THIS JACKET

Its sort of a suit that comes with exaggerated shoulders and row of double buttons with cuffed sleeves. And I've seen it worn by Ria Bolivar as a suit dress, and now as a guys slouchy sports jacket. I love androgynous pieces that you can share with your fashyon boyfriend. (Wait, is there such a thing as a fashyon boyfriend here in Philly? Wala yata.) Joey Samson in a shirt, jacket and jeans of his own design. Shoes from Giordano Concepts, Karine Arabian bag.

ORANGE YOU GLAD?

I admire girls who can rock colors, especially when its daywear as fantastic as this. Kate Torralba in her own dress, vintage sunnies from grandma, Janylyn shoes and Chloe Saskia bag

JUMPSUIT LUXE

It's always about the shoes, I love how the color in the footwear breaks the predominantly black palette. Agoo in a Topshop one-all, Tango shoes and vintage clutch.

COME TO MOMMA.

Jeremy Scott for Adidas. Available March 2009.

HOW TO WEAR KHAKI

Loving the double button pleat front sort of dhoti-ish trousers. Gil in H&M Purple Label pants, Rivy Ng wrap around cardi, C-in2 shirt, Diesel leathers

TUTU SKIRT

Kat in a one piece tutu dress from HK, Blazer from her tita, jewelry from Claire Bettita Samson, necklace from Dorothy Perkins, bag from Tomato, shoes from the States

ARCHITECTURAL CLOTHING

Oh my God is that a Balenciaga? I screamed over the loud pumping music. Yes, teehee, she giggles. Drool. Marita in Balenciaga shell top.

MELLOW YELLOW

Bianca in a vintage dress and belt from Paris, H&M sandals, Chanel bag

GREY AT GREYONE

Mano in bespoke button down, SugarCane jeans, Adidas X Neighbourhood ZX 700 Boat Shoes. Archie in Topman sweater, cut off Lee Jeans, Adidas sneaks

THE SYQUIA PARTY

Everyone wants to live in the Syquia Apartments. The waitlist for a unit is years. Hardwood floors, high ceilings and the best bohemian vibe ever. So whats the next best thing if you can't live in them? Crashing the units of course, every December Syquia holds the most fantastic open house party, with every unit open for guests and vying for the most recklesss debauchery with its own booze, food and entertainment. Halloween for the big kids. Mad Fun. Can't wait for next year.

WELL. HELLO.

Hey Guys, Happy New Year to all!! heaps of people have been requesting me to update already. Its not that I don't want to, just don't have the time. That's what going from freelance to having a dayjob means. Bah. Comments by friends range from the heartwarming to the downright funny. I met ryan&garovs of everywhereweshoot yesterday and they told me that checking my site at 4am wakes them up because the music just goes bulaga. hahaha. that made me laugh. Sorry, so yeah, i might have to go back to the non automated play. Its amazing that people really do spend time to check if I have new stuff in. So I guess that would be one of my main resolutions of the year, updating as much as I can.

So, dusting off the archives as I have to track back. Photos I have taken but havent uploaded, and it doesnt help at all that I'm injured. Left side of my back hurts to the point that I can't breathe when I walk. Ngurr. Just might have to bring myself to ER and have it checked. But other than that, everythings peachy. So yeah, whats in your top three resolutions, I'd love to hear it. Have a great Sunday!
