Smashin' Fashion

Thanks for the invisible tag Maine. Hehe

1. Job:
I'm the EA at Female magazine. Concentrating on the beauty department, and am hoping to turn into a full-fledged Beauty Writer, so my sad pay will go up. Yesterday I attended a hair show, where I had to watch models' hair cut on stage. Not very interesting. Interesting bit - getting free beauty products. Here's to more and more to come, hopefully.

2. Best Sartorial advice from my parents:
Errr...I'll have to think about that one for a bit.

3. Style icons:
I'm sorry, but Kate Moss looks effortlessly stylish in ANY goddamn thing she wears.

4. Describe your personal style:
Very random. I like a whole mix of things - I stay away from being too colour-coordinated, that look is awful. I like tomboyish pieces mixed with feminine ones; a schoolboy blazer paired with a slinky top and chunky heels, slouchy i-woke-up-wearing-this tops, NOTHING tarty it hurts my eyes *PUKE. Messy sex hair. Goth black on black, not the pierced-eyebrow-bad-hair-dye types, but the black-lace-bright-red lipstick- and-killer-heels ones. I like the whole quirky, vintage look - I wear my grandma's old leather handbags and my mom's old stuff. I like trying to make weird things work; found this old, floral blouse which could easily look grandma if worn wrong and I'm determined to make it look good, DAMNIT.

5. I build my daily look around:
The activity I'll be doing. What look I feel like channeling that day.

6. Personal style quirk:
I love my huge rings. I've got to have my eyeliner 99.9% of the time.

7. Favorite designers:
Marc Jacobs, Chanel. I'm not a designer girl yet, but one day i'll be haha.

8. Most cherished item:
My watches.

9.I feel best wearing?
Dresses. Dresses to parties, dresses to have lunch. Not too structured dresses, breezy dresses are good.

10.The first thing I look at in another Sartorialist’s outfit …
Shoes.

11.I always break this fashion rule.
Hmmm. Too much eyeliner? Sometimes I can't be bothered to iron my clothes. Haha, sorry Maine!

12.I never break this fashion rule.
I always shave my armpits when I wear anything sleeveless - thanks Maine

13.Never caught wearing?
Anything in-your-face slutty. Slip on heels, with the kitten heel that A LOT of Malaysians love to wear. SHUDDER

14.Dress to impress who?
Myself, my man and other women who appreciate well-dressed women.

15.Favorite stores?
God, I miss the stores in Melbourne soooo much. ALL THE STORES IN MELBOURNE, ALL OF 'EM!

16.Your next “must have” purchase?
Is there really a must have purchase? Somehow, I seem to find anything cute a must have. I have my eye on another maxi dress as of now. This will change once I buy it.

17.I only buy __________ in Europe.
H&M because they don't have it here.

18.I splurge on…..
Clothes,shoes, food.Cat food every two weeks. Petrol. Is that irrelevant?

19.Favorite item of clothing
My jeans. My red chunky heels which surprisingly go with a lot of things in my wardrobe.

20.Most stylish city (Milan, Paris, London, New York, other)
New York and Melbourne. The girls in Melbourne really dress to impress. Fab fab fab

21.When I was high school I wore?
Please, don't make me go there!

22.Sports?
And how is this a fashion question? I told my boyfriend that I would start doing sports if he bought me those cute, gym outfits. Then only will I consider it.

23.Favorite fashion magazine?
Shop till you drop. Nylon.

24.Favorite vacation spot?
London.

25.Favorite neighborhood restaurant?
Suzi's Corner, Secret Recipe, Delicious, CPK.
