I love the print of the vintage top, it is artsy. And the zips on the skirt is playful. This is my first attempt to mix vintage with punk. Punk is not particular 'me' but the skirt is punk minimal which is acceptable by me. And the outcome? Funky, don't you think?
I was 'unwell' last Sunday. My hands were itching to rummage nicely hung clothes, especially vintage clothes on racks. My feet wanted to walk around, did not want any rest. Small voices in my head told me to check out the Pink Tober charity bazaar at Solaris Dutamas. And I did. 
What do you think of my finds? Pretty neat, right? Hope everyone is having two great days so far. If not, hope you will have a good week ahead. 
In conjunction with breast cancer awareness month, here is my little support towards the campaign - by wearing a pink dress. Health is one of the most important things in life. No health, no life. Therefore practise healthy lifestyle - exercise, have a balance and healthy diet, get enough rest and also de-stress when there is a need.
The colour combo of the dress makes it one of a kind - black and orange gingham print. I came across black and white gingham prints loads of time but not black and orange. But, should I say that it is unfortunate that the dress comes with sleeves, which gives you the hhmm feel at first glance. I bought the dress during Vintage Packstocks clearance sale thinking that I could change from hhmm to wow. Pretty risky attempt, right?

Discovered Polyvore and was just trying to style some outfits. It was fun and I think I am addicted to it already.
I think I must have watched a bit too much of French films lately, which inspired the look for today. Watched 'Le Fabuleux destin d'Amelie Poulain' for the second time after over four years last night. Prior to that, I watched 'Paris' and 'Coco Chanel & Igor Stravinsky'. If you are a fan of Chanel, there is another film about the designer; 'Coco avant Chanel'. It is a story about the life of Gabrielle 'Coco' Chanel before becoming one of the most influential designers.
A love note? Maybe, I thought to myself at the very first time when I laid my eyes on this postcard. However, I did not purchase it immediately and it took me a while to finally make it mine. Would be a very good picture once it is framed and displayed. There were few more of the same models in different poses. And all of these postcards were addressed to the same person, Paula. I wonder perhaps the female model would be Paula...
Last Sunday, I went thrifting at my usual flea market. I was not thrifting for vintage clothes but for old fashion magazines and postcards. Unfortunately there were no old fashion magazines to be seen anywhere but I found the above postcard. It is a very lovely postcard and I like the postcard instantly. It was addressed to the same person, Paula, but this one dated 1915!
I love the subtle ruffles on this dress. It reminded me of Victorian style. Although the colour is from a neutral palette, pair it with a pair of funky shoes to make the look more edgy.
