avocado + m a y o

in my head : the boy's voice telling me pretty little things to help me sleep

so i've been gone awhile because i updated safari like a good little mac user , and then apple went and fucked me up . i just got the laptop back on monday and spent the whole day re-installing everything from microsoft office to adobe creative suite . i'm back online and keeping my fingers crossed . here's the weekend ( minus the eve pictures ) .

Photobucket

school on monday with my latest obsession ; crossword puzzles

if you haven't heard the latest , sam ate a worm ( or many we can't be quite too sure ) in her morning cereal . she started screaming and puking but she's all good now . it makes for great reunion anecdotes . hahaha .

long distance relationships really suck ; they break you down and wear you thin . if i were rich i'd fly back home to see you . if we were in the year 3000 , i'd teleport . but since we're neither , all i can do is wait for you to come over in june .

k s o o g l e .

morning rituals are never to be broken because they're there for a reason - to educate . so this morning i learnt from AUS style that awesome denim brand ksubi have revamped their dodgy website that really served no purpose at all . it was one of those sites that just looked pretty , told you to call a 1800 number if you wanted to satisfy your ksubi fix and that was pretty much it . no new styles , no information about the designers , nada . nilch . zip .

i present to you : ksoogle . looks , acts , functions like google except that it's ksubi's website . confused ? it's darn brilliant i think . go poke around . i promise it'll be fun .



this last week in pictures :


have you met vanessa ?

i want me a gobble guts .

any surprise is a good surprise ; especially when it has cupcakes written on the front .

send a cupcake my way please . again . for the third time this week .

all hail the denim blowout .

bleach me out .

remember the look that spawned the camille ( childhood flames ) skirt ?

my take - + keds patent flats :]


camberwell #1 - my pleated top

camberwell #2 - my white leather motorcycle jacket









there you go . sorry the layout is a bit of a mess . i'm kind of rushing this before i go to school .

OH OH OH . AMERICAN APPAREL IS THE COOLEST . THEY HEARD MY ONLINE PLEA AND MY TRI COLOUR STOCKINGS ARE NOW $20 ! haha i actually think they spotted their mistake on their own and corrected it but i'd like to believe they read my blog .





xoxoxoxo ,
soho loves YOU .

k u d o s to pure genius .

" it always fascinated me how people go from loving you madly to nothing at all , nothing . it hurts so much . when i feel someone is going to leave me , i have a tendency to break up first before I get to hear the whole thing . here it is . one more , one less . another wasted love story .

I really love this one . when i think that its over , that i'll never see him again like this . . . well yes , i'll bump into him , we'll meet our new boyfriend and girlfriend , act as if we had never been together , then we'll slowly think of each other less and less until we forget each other completely . almost . always the same for me . break up , break down . drunk up , fool around . meet one guy , then another , fuck around . forget the one and only . then after a few months of total emptiness start again to look for true love , desperately look everywhere and after two years of loneliness meet a new love and swear it is the one , until that one is gone as well .


there's a moment in life where you can't recover any more from another break-up . and even if this person bugs you sixty percent of the time , well you still can’t live without him . and even if he wakes you up every day by sneezing right in your face , well you love his sneezes more than anyone else's kisses . "

toast.s p i n a c h.bubble.flame.

in my head : sweat shop - neon neon

ten hours of sleep is never enough . i still feel like i walked a million miles carrying 200 pairs of louboutins . camberwell last sunday yielded a whole bagful of goodies - 5 clear shoe boxes ( $3 each ; they retail for $12 ) ; a vintage yellow dress ( $10 ) ; a military jacket ( $20 ) ; vintage black and gold cropped jacket ( $6.50 ) ; supre cream strapless dress ( $4 ) . it ended up raining half way into the trawling , a dramatic end to a rather eventful morning . i'd done most of my shopping so i'm glad the weather physically stopped me from creating an even bigger dent in my pocket .

Photobucket
i didn't want to give this up even though the temperature is dropping over here . the neckline , semi-puffed shoulder and hemline are just way too pretty . i figure i can use this when i head home to work , right ? (excuse the appaling fashion faux pas of a dark coloured bra under a light top , i was way too tired after that morning of shopping too bother about tiny little details )

Photobucket
can you spell steal ?! only $ 20 bucks !

Photobucket
after watching cashmere mafia and seeing lucy liu's black/gold ensembles , this definitely belongs in my wardrobe .

Photobucket
i've always loved black and gold but this takes my obsession to new heights . :]

Photobucket
only 7 episodes . what a pity . i would've continued watching just to see the outfits . the jacket that inspired me to grab the one above is in the far right bottom corner . i couldn't find out who it was by but you guys are free to have a go at it ! it appears in episode 6 :]

i'm kind of stocking up on jackets because i've realised that now that winter is fast approaching , the only thing that folks will get to see is the outerwear . so hit me up if you see something cute and utterly desirable that you think i must have . ps : don't tell dopez though . he's my conscience ( and he does a bloody good job of making me feel guilty ) .

Photobucket
on monday before work , at the tram stop .

Photobucket
i had on my ladakh black balloon sleeved top , my handmade skirt in beige , black stockings from target , mango flats + pashmina scarf courtesy of mama . * i was late so i didn't have time to take a photo of the full outfit .

Photobucket
it's all in the details . * i've gotten so many compliments ! these skirts are great basics . i'm completely grateful to childhood flames for the tutorial . folks who share are most definitely going to heaven . haha

Photobucket
on tuesday , before school .

Photobucket
giant wood stacks always pique my curiosity .

Photobucket
it's giant jenga ! * i politely declined their offer to have a go . i wouldn't want to be the girl that caused the entire stack to fall down .

Photobucket
that's kenneth . in case you guys forgot how he looks like . haha .

Photobucket
this is why i love sitting down in trams . the weirdest things appear in front of you ; like this badge that was attached to a guy's backpack . crabparties leather is the new leather !









why does everybody always ask if you enjoy school . it's school ; are you even supposed to enjoy it ?





xoxoxoxoxo ,
soho rushing two assignments .

dirty s e x y money .

in my head : in these shoes - kristy maccoll

it's the weekend folks ! today was filled with decadent food and op shop trawling .

Photobucket
tee : topshop
skirt : handmade ! :)
belt : vintage
boots : target ( only 39.99 ! ) * i don't usually buy cheap shoes and it's not cause i'm a snob but because they're not really comfortable . but these are really really value for money !
hat : glue

Photobucket
grill'd !

Photobucket
i have no idea what was up but apparently it wasn't good ! herb-ed fries dramatically changed her disposition .

Photobucket
tea at san churro , i know . we were feeling happy :) hot milk chocolate with a scoop of vanilla ice cream .

Photobucket
aye , aye .

Photobucket
i can see the fat starting to stay on my face already .

Photobucket
aa footlesss over the knee dual coloured stockings are the bomb !


Photobucket
dear american apparel ,

i am an avid fan of your products . although i think that they're horribly overpriced for basics , i still do purchase your gorgeous pretty things . i am weak . however , i really do not understand how you justify charging your loyal customers $61 for a pair of footless over the knee dual toned stockings . i'm really hoping that it is a typo of sorts even though the website states that it is $61 too . i'm really looking forward to hearing what you have to say . cheers !

xoxoxo ,
fanatical soho

ps: have i mentioned i'm a really really loyal fan ?
