whimsical whiffs of dreams

So, I'm sitting here in front of my computer munching on Crackers while my stomach's growling away. Well, I've been occupied with the most recent episodes of Gossip Girl, Heroes, Prison Break, The Hills, and my latest raves - Lipstick Jungle, and True Blood.

Candace Bushnell's Lipstick Jungle on NBC is pretty addictive I must say. In addition to the amazing clothes (as always), the three main female leads featuring Brooke Shields as Wendy Healy, Kim Raver as Nico Reilly and Lindsay Price as Victory Ford, spin up quite a web in the lives of these 3 of the 50 most powerful women in New York.

My personal fav being Lindsay Price - I love her! :) Oh, and have I already mentioned the gorgeous wardrobes they have!

HBO's True Blood, on the other hand, follows Sookie Stackhouse, a barmaid living in Louisiana who can read people's minds, and how her life is turned upside down when the Vampire Bill, walks into her place of employment two years after vampires 'came out of the coffin' on national television.

Blood and gore may not appetize most people but I've always loved it - having seen Blade etc since years ago...

Moving along, my outfit du jour ("odj") for the last weekend...

1. Berry top from Forever21

2. MNG mini skirt in black denim

3. Louis Vuitton Neverfull MM in monogram canvas

4. CL kika heels in patent black

I guess I'm finally wearing my wardrobe out bit by bit, all these unworn clothes, and unused shoes and bags. It's the lethargy I face at work (and given that in my position, I'm privy to tons of confidential information at work, I don't blog much about my job), but with the weekends, I have no excuse I suppose, to blog about making the best use of my current wardrobe, and my love for fashion.

And the lovely shoulder bag in Rose down at Marc Jacobs which caught my eye at more than 70% off. In buttery calfskin, I was almost weak at my knees...

Dennis Basso has come up with amazing collections - I am still in love with his Spring Summer 2008 (click on pic below to see the bigger pic)...wowowow

Last but not least, Rodarte's dreamy collection has made me sit up in my seat as well...it's really no wonder the sisters are now in Karl L's and Louboutin's radars.

I'm leaving for Kuala Lumpur on business for a few weeks beginning coming Tuesday...have to start packing!

Haven't mentioned that the highlight of my previous week was that they had Mariah Carey perform at our bank's corporate Forum in HK - brillant!

Ciao!

I love this film. It's old but pretty good. Kept me glued to the screen the whole time. And I guess the 1952 Mark Rothko helped keep my spirits up. Love the piece too much!

Uma and Bryan really kept the screen sizzling...a gentle cheeky reminder of how some memories in our past are kept the way they are...the sweet, the sour, the bitter and the spicy.

On to another week coming up ahead. Hope everyone had a good one - the weekend's coming to an end very soon!

a woman can never have enough...

Our weekend was a different one as compared to the rest we've been having to date...we had some time to ourselvcs and we caught the films we wanted to watch. Our Japanese dinner was simple but nice and I was lured by a tagline posted on the BYSI shop - "I was waiting to clear my wardrobe to make space for the 70% BYSI sale." :) A 15-min quick stop turned out to be more fruitful than I'd imagined and I ended up picking up 6 pieces for S$72. 3 skirts - 1 brown, 1 mini one in black and 1 white. 1 black tunic top with beadings (which I'm thinking of wearing with my new leggings), 1 white top, and 1 black zip dress maybe for work...



300 was a good movie, while for Music and Lyrics, besides the songs, everything else was average to me...Hugh Grant has indeed aged. Like what SC said, I couldn't help but look at his wrinkles too...





Am headed for CN's wedding tonight at The Four Seasons...will try put up pics if I do take some.
