AA tshirt dress, random tights, Zara denim vest, Frye harness boots, DIY nanz studded bag.
A better look at the bag that nanz made.
If you’ve been following my twitter I’m sure you’ll know by now that I’m one of the many who are seriously dying for the Acne Atacoma wedges (I refuse to link the website so that it’s harder for you, dear reader, to buy the shoes I want WAHAHAHA JEALOUS RAGE). I seriously check the website everyday to see if they’re still available in my size. I don’t regret that the silver-based ones are now GONE..as I kind of prefer the brown version more as it’s a little less “kua-zhang” (outrageous/obnoxious) and a touch, if ever just so slightly, more wearable. Sigh..unfortunately I have a feeling these may never be mine..unless, by some heavenly touch of god, someone buys them for me or I strike mark-six (the HK lottery)..or..(now this is seriously dreaming) I suddenly get a surprise raise/bonus!
Anyway, since I’m obviously obsessing about those shoes..I was bored the other day and made some patterns from the shoe! I was going for some sort of repeat pattern and kind of liked the new images/shapes it made. I bet that if I never even told you they were the Atacome wedges you wouldn’t even have recognized them! I don’t mean to be modest or think that I’m great but if you like them you CAN use them as long as you ask me first! which is why I’ve added a watermark!
These kinda look like tire tracks no?
This one is my favourite. Is it just me or does it kind of look like a pattern of wolf heads?
Once again, I feel like my blog is dying again! le sigh ): but oh wells!
Oh and p.s. I finally got a job!! A “job” is not exactly what I thought it would be like..I really really am very NOT suited for the 9-6 (or more like 9-7..goddamn HK work ethic) routine. I get so restless and my eyes get so blurry half way through the day and seriously..I’m ever so slightly ADD and I can’t really sit still for 10 hours! Anyway..my work has an “internet policy” where they really really don’t allow internet browsing/chatting during work hours so that’s why my online life/presence has seriously plummeted. I can’t concentrate on something for more than 15 mins so I used to check twitter/blogs at least every 20/30 minutes and now I can’t at all! It’s so hard to function!

bahaha, we have an internet policy too, but the western society is a tad more graceful on the whole work thing, i just do 9 – 5 a couple of days outside of uni. love the outfit – per usual. and i forget whether i have mentioned this, but your hair… how long did it take to grow?
sometimes i wish hair would just go from short to long, without the “awkward length” stage. haha.
i like the last two patterns, OMG!!! – YOU SHOULD MAKE A TSHIRT IN THAT PATTERN. SERIOUSSSSLLLY! – think about it!
much love x

DENISE. H&M? Is this the one in the old lane crawford? I actually haven’t been there yet – because the last time I was home, it was swarming with people. I am so jealous.
I love those boots!!!! And yes, those shoes. You are hilarious.

those boots + studs + denim vest = coolness
and it sucks that you can’t twitter/blog all you want during work – do they actually monitor the screens?

AHHAHAA omgg you seriously went crazy with those shoes and photoshop eh?! I can’t imagine ever doing something like that because it would just take me an entire day to figure out how to tasselate the darned image. That’s how bad I am with this newfangled graphic design technology. Xp
Anyway congrats on the job! =) How does it feel to be raking in some money? Hope you’ll get more adjusted to it soon… I’m so tired out just from school even the thought of work next time scares me O_o

Yeah I would definitely buy a dress in the last pattern. Or tights! They have websites that print patterns on fabric. Oh and throw pillows? Or bed sheets?!?! LOL
