Getting Better

I'm slowly but steadily working my way up from a very bland and headless creative slump about how to dress, how I want to look and be like, and what I really want. I even took up drawing again.

I just hate the fact that my closet to most parts is so much trash. It's ballast, and as that it's bothering me intensely. So for me, it all starts with the shopping, and this shopping thing and becoming more efficient and smarter at it has been an issue for me for a whole while now, and it's come a long way. I just wish I got better at it already!

However, I decidedly love the fact that getting better at shopping is the only serious issue I have. Only besides the obviously high odds that I'll fail JLPT level 2, despite putting so much effort into it.



And Daul Kim's supposedly suicide shocked and unsettled me to no end, and I am really not one to swoon over celebs or be easily rocked. I could simply not believe it. Through all the years I read her blog, when I read her deeply sad posts, I always had wished for her to become happy. Now I hope she can rest in peace. But I really, really wish she hadn't done it. It must mean she's seen no value to her life, nor to herself. But there was. I just wish she could have seen it.

Daul Kim

No!

Layers, Layers, Layers

Yes!

I'm Too Young to Get Old

I'm too young to get old.

A lot in my closet, home and here, is just trash.



There, now it's out.

I wanna do more outfit posts again.

Not macht erfinderisch

I just thought of something to make this white sweater-shirt I dropped make-up on wearable again. See, you don't see the make-up spot anymore, it's somewhere hidden in the folds I draped and sewed on.

Thru Space and Time

I concluded, as basics, I wouldn't need much. I know, the 'timeless'-ness of items and essential basics is all according to and depending on each and everyone's own definition. I determined mine by the frequency I am lusting after them. As for the following, it's each time. Of course, some items will differ depending on the season, but to the greatest parts stay the same. That makes it a firm consistency in my closet. And most of the time, if I was that easily content, it'd be all I would center my wardrobe around.

1. EASY - Skinny denim - I plead guilty of simplicity. And black ballet flats. Because I have plenty of shoes, but all I'd actually ever wear is black ballet flats. I just love blazers. A dressy statement accessory item is never wrong. And a plain white T is self-explanatory in itself.

2. CHIC - Wide leg pants and chic pumps. Even I sometimes have a thing for a bit office chic. A dressy top, preferrably some sort of blouse. A beige trench-coat - of which the perfect I haven't yet come across.

3. EVERY DAY - A simple mini skirt, maybe with a little twist. A reliable oversize sweater. A big shopper bag, that doesn't have to be chic, but down-to-earth, and easy going. And the only sneakers I wear is these sequinned plim soles.

4. CHILL - I am all pro sweat pants as every day street wear. I'm a sucker for both fur hats, and fierce military parkas. I already have the most perfect parka jacket I've ever come across, which I CAN'T wait to wear already.

Autumn Tunes

Hello, how are you all? Is the colder weather getting to you? I finally got a new playlist up here. To see the tracklist, click here. I think it's a good autumn tune. I'm all into this season.

Body Ideals

Even if you hate the body ideal of now, don't go and celebrate the alternative. Either way it will hurt the persons who don't have the features you so hold up. Because eventually, there should be no body ideal at all.
