hang loose

H&M really knows how to make loose boyfriend t-shirts. This is exactly the kind of loose-fitting top I love! It goes pretty much with anything - printed pants,like what I did here - untucked paired with pencil skirts and boots or partially tucked in with denim. At S$14.90, it's so worth it!

These printed pants, btw are just love!

 

...And, a little awkward pose in an attempt to show how lose this shirt is.

I was wearing: H&M boyfriend tee, printed pants from Blanco, court shoes from Charles & Keith.
 

Spring's printed pants/leggings

I'm crushing on this season's printed pants/leggings and now that Spring/Summer season is here, there are so many vibrant colors in fun summery prints that are available out there. 

In particular, I'm loving Stradivarius' collection of printed leggings.

Wearing printed leggings is a bit tricky. You have to pick prints carefully so that you don't end dressing like an auntie. Eepp! So I'm glad to see this collection from Stradivarius - go boho paired with wedge sandals or a little tomboy with boots. Check out the rest of the prints here.

something new

A few new things I recently picked up:

Printed leggings from Stradivarius
I'm not really into leggings but for some reason I can't get out the image of styling a printed pair with boots and a loose top. So I just had to pick up a pair. 

Balloon skirt from New Look
Another item that I usually don't gravitate to, but I love this pair and I'm thinking of wearing it mod-style with stripes and boots. 

tie-dye

Picked up these tie-dyed pants on my recent trip to Kos. I didn't realize that tie-dye is making a comeback (hello 90s fashion!). 

I put together this look with a music festival in mind. :P

Paired with a simple white tee and denim vest.

I normally wouldn't pair a loose pair with boots but this pair actually tapers at the bottom so I can tuck them into the boots which helps it from looking too loose.
 

Outfit details

I was wearing: Tie-dye pants from Pink Woman (Kos), top from Cotton On, old denim vest, booties from Bershka. 

sneak peak

One of my favorite new buys is the printed pants from Shana. Here's a sneak peak of the looks I've got planned for these pants.

just in: Chistmas buys

I've been working so hard - at work and at the gym lately and since we're not going anywhere for the holidays, I decided to treat myself this Christmas! :) (Like I need an excuse.)

Remember I told you guys about my latest discovery. Well dropped by Shana again over the weekend and all items are on sale at 15% off! Aside from the storewide sale, some older stocks are also marked down. 


I simply couldn't resist this camo pullover. The material is so soft and comfy. Perfect for the cooler weather we've been having here in Singapore lately. The best thing about this is that this costs only $29.90! Honestly, if you pick up a similar shirt at Zara, you'll have to fork over at least $59. The printed harem pants are on sale at $27.90 with further 15% discount! Shana is fast becoming my new favorite store. They have cool rock and roll print tees, printed pencil skirts and jersey dresses and are all very reasonably priced. Printed tees range from $17 to $22. Shana is located at Level 2 of Bugis+, next to Uniqlo.



And for my bookish side, finally got a copy of The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood. On sale at 25% off. Check out Prologue's storewide sale til December 26. Prologue is located at Level 4 ION Orchard.

the vest that could

Remember my most recent alteration project? Still playing around with other looks I can create with the gray vest.


This time, I swapped the neutrals with a bolder print.

Topped it off with the vest. A dependable technique to pull everything together.




I was wearing: Printed pants from Divisoria (Manila), tank top from G2000, Ma's blazer-turned-vest, Sapato Manila wedges (Manila), bangles from Diva and H&M ring.
