Retro Nights



Excuse the apathetic look on my face I'm extremely tired at the moment study and such (argh!)
Well i was rummaging though my closet right now I'm doing the same and i found this shirt that has been in there since last year when i was doing a big brand spend up as everyone should do but always maybe its the filipino in me that says if you do find a bargain i don't know. 
The jeans i know are ripped i thought about slash them but lets face it that whole trend it going to only stop momentarily and i don't want to risk one of my favorite pairs of denim for a wavering un-classic trend well i guess it is in a kinda bogan way.

Grey Suit


Just thought i do a quick little post before I'm wrapped up in enjoying the holidays. These photos taken by Jess Edmon-Saunders yesterday have to be some of my favorite in my life "thanks!"

Anyway I bought this at a local op-shop/vintage store and i was in love with it. It was actually a tailored suit to someone else and fits me quite well factoring the fact that it was made to fit another person.

I took a inspiration from my inspirational blog funny enough and i will be doing this with each of the blogs i follow and doing a homage to their greatness =]
Inspiration: Pascal Grob and The Shophisticat

Blue Colar Dandy

Love this pleating


Well this outfit sprung from the cupboard in the washroom i was rumaging in at my grandmas i thought not to take this top though as she made it by hand. I love the pleating in it and the odd colar that we do not see alot of in todays fashion.
I dont really have much to say as the garment in its self is quite simple except thanks grandma for leeting me rumage and steal clothes.

In Construction


My attempt at an action shot




Well the ball season is coming up and what do you know I took on an extremly hard project just because I could. If you havent gathered im making my entire suit. I've already made the pants and due to some extremly stressful hardwork I am near compeltetion 10 or so days before the ball. One piece of advice plan well in advance with everything espicially long term projects because even leaving 4 weeks for compeletion for something that should take a longer amount of time you may have to comprimise.

This suit im also going to enter in the local fashion show with a shirt with tails, with extra volume now. I was inspired, well for the extra volume anyway from a jean paul shirt dress that I saw on TV.
