o59. Material, Material, Material World

I've compiled a wishlist for some time now, and Ira's tweet on neon watches inspired me to write up a blogpost on my wishlist! :D
They're all really random so here goes:
1. Nixon Time Teller Watch
This is the watch Randy has been wearing on Idol during the Audition weeks! I must say, the man has good taste when it comes to watches cos I absolutely adoooore this watch and I want it so badly! *googly eyed* 0:)


2. Pop Art Toaster
How amused would your guests/friends be when you serve them this for breakfast or tea? :D So adorable! I really want this! :D Not a necessity, but definitely a looker! :D



3. Kuretake Handmade Mini Envelope Template
If you are a close friend, or simply a friend, you would know that I am a cardmaking fanatic. I find every opportunity to make a card :) And if you are a regular card maker, you would know how difficult it is looking for a perfect envelope to match/fit your card. If I have the Kuretake envelope template, I could use ANY paper (designed, magazine paper, metallic paper, cardboard, etc) to make an envelope of ANY size I want :D Hence, problem solved yay :)

4. Paul Frank iPhone case! Pretty self explanatory. :D


5. Digital Blue LEGO 3MP Digital Camera
Ahh so cuuuute :D THIS IS NOT A TOY! It's a functional 3megapixel cam with LCD screen :O :O Okay this isn't technically on my to-buy list, because I don't see myself actually paying £59.99 (RM300) for it. But it is a wishlist afterall so I can have anything here lalala. *goes into irritating humming ignorant mode*


 6. Korean-y backpacks! :D
HOW CUTE IS THIIISSSS! I've seen so many Koreans carrying it around college, and it's so gaah adorable :) I've ordered one online, so yay at least I can cross out ONE THING on my wishlist 0:) I feel so accomplished! *strikes through #6* *feels satisfied* 0:)


7. Removable hair extensions!
How awesome is it to just have different coloured streaks to school everyday! *mock advertorial shock* :O

8. EOS lipbalm.
Just the packaging itself brings me to remove the money from my wallet haha. I would love to have this in my bag! Too cute. :) Besides, Chuck (Ed Westwick) and Adam Lambert use it loool! :P

9. MINX NAILS!
I've wanted this forever! If you are a huge fan of nailpolish and own 572038470234 OPI, ChinaGlaze, Essie, Orly, Skinfood nailpolishes, you MUST look at the website! Phenomenal :D I'm crazy about reflective, chrome and metal-surface nails.
*I have nailpolish swatches coming up in the next post! Exciiited :D:D:D

10. Zoe Chicco Hug & Kiss Necklace
Stunning signature piece! :) Spotted on Lea Michelle (Rachel in Glee) too. I'm a sucker for statement necklaces, necklaces with initials, statement bibs, etc. :D
As much as I love this piece, I am pretty very sure I will not pay RM1580 for it!

o58. Red Carpet.

This post is a little late, but I love Red Carpet moments at Oscars and Academy Awards! Here are a few of my favourites and.. notsofavourites, for the lack of a better word.


Top Two Favourites.
Cameron Diaz in an Oscar de la renta gown. Love her 90's hairstyle, this is so Hollywood glamour, she looks smokin :) Yes, this dress is very Taylor Swift, but I reckon it works! Truthfully I've always been a fan of Cameron Diaz on red carpets; she carries herself awfully well :)
Anna Kendrick. Love the offshoulder blush pink dress and the lace details at the bottom. I like how her hair complements her romantic look :) Nice minimalistic accessory, not that she needs it with this gorgeous dress.

(L) Penelope Cruz looks fabulous, I love this shade of red, but I personally think this dress is a bit too safe for her.
(R) Kristen Stewart! In a red carpet worthy dress. Confidence is the best accessory and she's lacking it. She looks somewhat uncomfortable :\


I forgot her name. Wait, let me check.
Carey Mulligan in Prada. As much as I like the beading at the top, I'm not into the asymmetrical hem. And wrong shoes!

I normally don't like chiffon-looking material, but I think this dress on Rachel McAdams looks exquisite :) And maybe I'm biased cos it's Rachel McAdams :P
Favourite actress EVER.

Love her movies, not the dress. Not getting her hair, her facial expression and her make up. She needs to get her eyebrows done pronto. Sorry, Sandra B :(

I love SJP as much as any other Sex & The City fan, but she looks as if her tanning session went wrong. She's ORANGE. Can't say I'm a fan of the Chanel dress either.

 Beautiful colour, wrong dress. The top of the dress is not fashion forward, it's simply questionable.
Besides, it doesn't fit her body well. I still love the colour though.

o51. Sorry boys, girls only :P

My last post has inspired me to blog about fashion. Haha here's another.

My Top 6 Fashion Wishlist/Musthave
This is just basically what I feel every girl needs in her closet now. I say now, because I know trends can fade or grow tacky and all that, so yes. To avoid future embarrassment, I say NOW :P
And I say wishlist because some I do not have yet. *hint* :P


1. Bodycon / bandage dresses
Bodycon.

 
Bandage dresses


 

I think these dresses really accentuate your curves, and they're fun to wear :)
It's not slutty, but it's not boring, that's for sure.
I can't get enough of bodycon dresses. Five is simply not enough, trust me on this!

2. Oxfords
I do not own even one pair of Oxfords! :'(

 

These will make your legs longers. Fo' sho'!
So much better than heeled boots, because boots just cut off your legs length. Boo to boots!

3. MaryJanes!
I only have one pair of MaryJanes, in olive green. How distasteful huh! HAHA I want one in black :)

Heeled MaryJanes.
(NiWen thinks heeled MJ's are just.. "wrong". I completely disagree!)

 Flat MJ's.

 
 The MaryJanes I wore in Aussie belongs to my aunt. Do you love it or what! I would get one exactly like that except that it's DKNY and costs like.. RM1000? Mmm. I'm still on the lookout for something which looks similarly like that :)

4. High waisted skirts

(a) Panel skirts


 
(Pics credit to Vivace Cabin)
I don't own any panel skirts, and I blame it on my figure haha. Panel skirts look best on lanky but shapely girls, and I unfortunately am not a size 0 :P Haha but if I have a figure like the model in the picture, trust me; panel skirts would be my number one fashion must have! I love admiring people who wear this, because however you wear it, it just looks equally stunning :)

(b) Tiered / flared skirts
 


 There's a stall outside MPH which sells the most gorgeous printed skirts in the world! The prices are RM59, 69, and 79, according to lengths :) I bought a highwaisted tulip skirt in Parkson recently during the sale, and it was about RM60 after discount. It's absolutely versatile, and you can either dress it up for the night, or dress it down for classes :)
I recently bought the one in the first picture from Oh, popsicles! Blogshop. It's absolutely gorgeous! Lovelovelove it :)
I also bought the one in the second picture above, from Dudes & Duchess Online Shop. It costed only RM32 with postage! Cheapest I've seen so far, so definitely a bargain. There are two more left in this blogshop, so get it quickly if you want!
 Honestly, I do not know if this is a phase for me, or am I still going to wear all my highwaisted skirts in 5 years time, but for now, I am loving it! :)

5. Leggings / Jeggings
There is an endless debate about jeggings (JEANS OR LEGGINGS?!), and I fully support the invention of jeggings! Brilliant, I say.


Studded leggings.
 I want this so badly, it's not even funny :P

 
I want these really badly too!
How comfy are they?! Gosh, it looks so unique and awesomeeee *googly eyed*

 
Okay these are just skinnies. Sorry :P Aren't they stunning though!

 Leggings are a must have in every girl's closet. Definitely. I think I own five similar black leggings alone lol.
You can wear literally anything with leggings haha :) It's a life saver.

6. Hairbands
Haha this picture is so cliched, and it's been everywhereee!
I, for one, am obsessed about hairbands, and I own almost 60, haha. "But you only have one head!" - Tim.
My favourite in the picture is most definitely the one in the middle, the yellow one! :)
It's such a fashion statement, and I wear a hairband everyday without fail. Haha obsessive much? :P

o50. Who's your style icon?

This is my first time blogging about well, style and/or fashion, so yes I'm quite tongue tied now. :& Okay here goes. :P

For me, I've never liked blazers, jumpsuits, anything leather/faux skin, but since the beginning of last year I was really into mmm, the edgy and more in-your-face kind of style haha :S I've been trying to give my wardrobe a makeover, and am still in the process (Aren't we all? :P) haha. Last month, I bought 6 high waisted skirts in two weeks. There are only a few things a girl can't control, but shopping is most certainly one of them! Can I get an 'Amen'? :P


 

MIROSLAVA DUMA
I don't know much about her, but as I've gathered, she's Russia's It Girl now :)
Apparently, she's the editor of Russia's Harper Bazaar? Some say Australia, but she doesn't look Australian to me, so I doubt that haha :)

 
I love this top and her hippie headband.
(I will never pull off the hippie headband look. I guess you just need that face, and unfortunately, I do not have it D: But how gorgeous are people with hippiebands?! So effortless & chic.)


 
This is so edgy, without showing off much skin. I love the silent elegance about this :)


I'm pretty sure this little tote is Chanel, because I loooove Chanel's vintage collection. Mmm :)

 
HOW EFFORTLESS DOES SHE LOOK?!
I really don't know whether to hate or love her :\ I love this hoodie, and how she styled it in such a way that it looks fresh from the runway.


I am in love with too many outfits of hers, but I HAVE TO SAY, that this is my absolute favourite, hands down :) I love this Hermes tote, and how she paired up a Missoni semi-trenchcoat-looking top with just plain solid stockings. I love this whole look :)

Damn, I just reread my whole post, and I've used the word 'love' nine times. No, I am not suffering from a limited range of vocabulary. She is definitely my style icon, for now at least :)
I know I seem obsessed, but it's perfectly acceptable (hahanot) in this case lollol. Especially when she's only 25, but has gained excess as a regular at fashion weeks held all over the world. And tell me, does she not rock the frontal fringe?! Not many people can pull that off, I'll give you that.
