OOTD- Autumn in Spring

My final exam of the year was today! *hollers* So much excitement and relief flooded through me- even though I probably didn't do too well- I'm so glad they're finally over. This year more than most, I'm looking forward to the break and being productive, getting my life started and reaching my goals finally seems possible. Challenges are abundant, but bring it on (I say for once)!
This isn't my usual style, but what can I say? I'm not one to be closed minded. I felt so girly and feminine, it was an awkward change haha. Still fun and perfect for this weather while still being modest!
Dress: Forever 21/ Bag: Zara/ Flats: some random store in Malaysia



HAVE AN AWESOME BREAK TO EVERYONE STUDYING! IT'S BEEN AN EYE OPENING YEAR!

Weekly Visuals: Food, Clothes and Whiteboard markers?!


I don't think it would be possible to top my last picture dump so I won't even try..
Still, I promise to look positively on the day spent. 


I finally got back into doing legitimate outfit posts. The specimen on the left is an example of that. On the right is what I've been lazily resulting to (mirror selfies) in the meantime.

This week has been full of procrastination. I finally got to try out the whiteboard tables we have at the library, and what can I say? I like to utilise my resources. Oh, and I like Adventure time too.. but that's an obvious one holmes.


trying out a Motel dress I got for a steal at 25p. The real question is, when will I get a chance to wear it? Too beautiful, if only I had a glamour life to showcase this dress and it's beauty.


More drawing. I have no idea why I've been cartooning my recent works lately. I began rewatching my all time favourite anime, Death Note, this is the result. 


Did I mention glorious food? I know, I'm already overweight. These indulgences will be the death of me. The above is some grub we got at Snags and Sons. Warning: hotdog full of killer industrial mustard!


Another Leederville adventure.
Left: forget wine tasting, burgers are where it's at @ jusburgers
Right: fancy fancy drinks! Can you tell I'm in the middle taking the pic? Fruiz red grape juice is intense! It's like Ribena on crack, for adults. (Because crack is totally for children.. anyways)

OOTD: Ahoy The Nineties Knot

I always end up choosing the wrong day for clothes. It was windy as hell and my skirt was going haywire. It was time to whip out the nineties knot to cover up- result was a very awkward outfit. And my bad being cold and whipped by air. Twas cool at least.

OOTD: Winter is Coming!


It's been ages since I have done a proper ootd! Mostly because I have been busy (hence no time to take pretty pictures), others I felt that my outfits have just been drab due to the formerly mentioned reason.

cropped jumper: H&M/ dress: primark / cutout boots: zipia / chain link belt: asos / backpack: Nixon-General Pants co.

I wish I was more blatantly trendy but when it comes down to it, I'm a sucker for practicality and comfort. I don't think I could ever be one of those girls that carries around only their makeup travel case  to uni in a tiny little handbag.
I suffer from a case of nerdism- my bag is packed to the brim with my textbooks and other handy bits. I've learned to adopt to the lack of trends and the rather clunky aesthetic of a backpack [especially with skirts ): ]. I recently got this Nixon one for sale at $29.99 at General Pants Co. It's cute and decent for the price. I love the straps as they are seat belts and are pretty unique. I feel totally safe and "strapped in" with them.

The dress has been hiding in my closet for over two years, unworn. I finally whipped it out- and I love it! Thankyou Primark for such a good deal.


anyways, as to the title of this outfit- it is derived not only from it's literal boundaries but also from The Game of Thrones. I've been watching it lately, and it is so damn intense. It's a great show!

Style Highlight: Sarah Scott (Scott x Scott) for B:SCOTT/LAB:CO

the ScottxScott online store
So let me admit, I'm all too keen for Summer to be blown away and for Winter to just roll in already. So when I found myself on the Urban Outfitters website, or more specifically, on their sale section, I couldn't help but snap up some incredible steals that they had on outerwear.

While browsing in an orderly fashion, I came upon the Sarah Scott Varsity Blazer (or the LAB:CO wool bomber jacket, as UO liked to call it) for $19.99, I couldn't resist picking it up in the last available size, L even though I would be a steady M.

I was intrigued with the brand, and the price tag that had dropped over $100 big ones, but I can't say much for it until it's arrived obviously. Unfortunately it has disappeared off the site and I am assuming that it is now out of stock, but more importantly, my casual browsing has led me to the discovery of Sarah Scott Design.

The google search rendered random scientific results and let me just tell you, ScottxScott are a damn mysterious bunch. I have no idea but I'm going to assume that they're a relatively new, independent brand that has sealed a concession with UO.

I had no idea about the label, nor the brandname other than UO calling the jacket a brand of "LAB:CO". I loved the jacket but my curiosity had not been satisfied with the vague results that the obligatory Google search had offered me. Various word associations were typed in, and much to my surprise I found the Jacket's creators, known as Scott x Scott, and Sarah Scott being the female counterpart of the duo.
Sarah Scott Design
Sarah Scott's line is edgy, contemporary and clad in black. They offer anything from real leather outerwear to more affordable alternatives most of which are slick with lashings of a leather look.
I would describe their designs to be a mix of classic cuts with the rebellion of modern chic, and what makes the label or the more refreshing is that they manage to incorporate all of this and still create clean designs.

the two way jacket
With the recent resurgence of grunge rock and the nineties not only in high fashion but street trends, a clean rendition of this style is something I haven't seen in a while, if not ever. It's certainly refreshing.
Don't Kill the Messenger Bag
I'm personally in love with the two way jacket for it's versatility and also edgy geometrics, and the unique shape of the Don't Kill the Messenger Bag lures me in as well. I have a lusting for all the pieces, especially their outerwear- a combination of a very classic, almost androgynous look with a small twist.

Well, ScottxScott has got a fan in me.

DIY Romantic 3D Crayon Art!



hello everyone! Long time no post! Well thankfully I've been able to sort out my computer situation and I'm back better than ever! Unfortunately for the next few weeks I'll be very quiet due to exams but here's just a quick post on this art project I've done recently. I was inspired by KickThePJ's video Rainbow Magical Adventure and decided to do one just myself to relieve some stress due to my workload.
Jump the cut to see my very own Rainbow (more rain than erm, bow) adventure! :)
