Fill in the gap...

It seems I have managed to develop a bad case of writers block, thus the lack of posts lately. This is really just a filler post until I can somehow un-block myself. Nothing exactly -life-shocking- has happened to me as of late so the only big news I have to share this week is that I got an iMac. Yaaay! I’ve joined the bandwagon… and all I have to say is that it’s not as spectacular spectacular as everyone hypes it up to be. Sure it’s nice and quiet and it looks pretty, but so far it’s been a real bitch trying to adjust to all the different features considering I come from a long history of PC-using. Bah… it puts me into a bad mood just thinking about it so I’m going to stop. But as I have now obtained this piece of aluminum I shall have to deal with it, in the end it is just another computer after all. And now I shall leave you with some pretty pictures, as I have nothing more to really write about. Cheers…

Love Like Winter....

As most people have probably noticed it is now May and in the land of Oz the weather has finally changed from sunshine, lollipops and rainbows to windy, dreary, cold and wet and with the seasons my wardrobe has also changed. This winter I have left my skinny leg jeans to hibernate and instead have gone with the soft velvety feeling of patterned tights against my pale alabaster computer tanned legs, while paired with knee high boots and skirts of varying shortness.

Now before y’all get out your -you-must-be-crazy- faces and start throwing comments like 'I must be freezing...’ I would like to drop a reminder that I live in Melbourne, and the temperature here varies between somewhat nippy and fuck it‘s cold... and not forgetting the days that aren’t even cold despite being already fully clad in a big black coat designed for northern hemispherical winters.

And if I don’t point this out enough, I am Chinese, more precisely I’m from Beijing and it gets really fucking cold in winter. It’s so cold that I’ve avoided going back during winter since I was 11 until last year when I went back for Chinese New Year during March and my god I thought my blood would crystallize and this was with two layers of stockings underneath my über tight super skinny leg jeans.

That’s another thing; despite every other person’s opinion I find jeans are incredibly poor insulators of heat during winter. Especially super skinny leg jeans, which is the only kind of jeans I own and I absolutely loathe having to drag my legs through those steel cold tunnels in the morning.

So to save myself the drama and my boyfriend the whining this winter I have decided to opt for a more agreeable substitute. Thus I choose stockings. They give me the slimming effect to create traffic-stopping legs without the temperature drop, and this season, it’s patterned and or colored stockings that are the hip thing out on the streets, which is the perfect way to personalize any outfit and they don’t cost me an arm and a leg and that makes my bank account look happy too.

Okay, my eyes are starting tear up from sleep deprivation so I shall wrap it up.

Au Revoir my lovelies....

Fashion Tip Of The Day: When the weather does get cold enough, pull on a pair of thigh-high or over-the-knee socks over your tights or pantyhose even for added warmth.
