1. My soon-to-be Anna Sui wallet: well technically, it's already mine. It just has yet to reach my hands. I discovered it on ebay last week and after much contemplating, ordered Van to buy it for me. FOR $40(AU)!!! The original selling price was US$169, and at our current economic crisis, it should've costed me $252. Isn't it looooovely?
2. Going shoe-shopping: Last friday, I went to buy shoes for the formal. It was so fun. Yet so tiring. I literally stepped in and out of dozens of shoes, and if you know me well enough, you'd know that I'm very very undecisive. Meaning that before I buy something as expensive or as important as my formal shoes, I would have to try on every pair of shoes that fit the criteria, in every single shoe store before I could decide. Unfortunately, I couldn't buy the shoes that I fell in love with the moment I laid my eyes on them. Thats because they were 14cm high (completely unwalkable in), and $120 (completely unspendable on.)
3. Black lace: I have this thing with black lace. I don't know why or how, but I absolutely love black lace, and will fall completely head over heels in love with most things containing black lace. Is that weird? Do normal people like black lace with such passion?
4. If You Could See Me Now by Cecelia Ahern: forget the book, I love Cecelia Ahern herself. All her books are so... WONDERFUL. They all contain whimsical themes and modern fairytale-esque plots. However, my favourite book from her is If You Could See Me Now, which explores the possibility of invisible friends. It's about a young woman who is too caught up in her work and too closed minded to accept new different things, but eventually learns to let go of her insecurities and what others think of her. It's so sad and melancholic, yet playful. All her books feel make me feel somewhat nostalgic. You have to read her books. I could go on and on about her, or write a whole post about Cecelia Ahern, but I'll leave it up to you to do some research on her.
5. Leblackbook.com.au: click here to lookie. It's an online store, stocking heaps of Australian designer including Anna & Boy, Bowie, Rachel Gilbert and Fleur Wood. They sell all types of clothing, from swimwear to formal dresses. Items I'm loving from leblackbook: satin dress from Rachel Gilbert, black jacket from Shakuhachi, and I LOVELOVELOVE this white Velerie Tolosa dresss.
