The Elderly...

When most people walk along the streets,and they see the
elderly strolling on by.We don’t stop to think about how old they are.To some
people,they are a burden,to me,they represent an age old tree who has weathered
storms,survived through different phases and their lives are a testament to
.They are like a closed book,we do not know them until we read deep into their
lives and realize what struggles they have overcome.Strolling by,with their
passé flowered two piece silk emsemble,withering chrome hair and with each
wrinkles giving a testament to the different phases of their lives.My heart
breaks to see them being treated as a liability to society.They are a closed
book waiting to be read,in passiveness wanting to share their story.But do we
give them a chance? We shun them,we mock them,we ignore them.However,we will
never be able to fully know their lives,and because of that,society’s a dumb
bitch.Why don’t WE? I WANT TO LOOK AT THEM AS TREASURES.THEY ARE OUR PAST,and
they are the ones who carved our present,and for us,we’ll be old one day,
carving the future and it goes on and on,a vicious cycle.
My grandmother died 4 years ago, in 2007. I knew that I did not appreciate her
 hardwork until the day she passed away. She took care of me and my brother, cooked for us, cleaned up after us... She was really the best. But when I look back at it, I feel that I did not treat her like I should have. I always wanted to be alone in a room and I locked the doors and when she wanted to enter I did not let her, even though it was her house. I wished she was still alive...

Nightmares

These few nights I've been getting nightmares... Nightmares which have been getting worse and worse. My mother has been woken up by my screaming and mumbling on few occasions. And on some occasions, I even wake up and sleepwalk...From what my mother has said, I have been turning on the lights in our house.. What's scary is that, I remember what the nightmares were. I remember on one night, a few weeks back, I dreamt that I was looking at guys on my computer screen...Then my mother barged into my room asking 'WHAT'S THIS!?! WHAT'S THIS!??' and I was screaming and crying.
 I know it's abit cliche for me to have everything on this blog linked back to my sexuality, but I feel that all my problems are tied in with my sexuality of being gay. But I don't think that's the true problem, I think it's the fact that I'm hiding it. I worry that one day...I may wake up dead... That would be the real nightmare...

Trends From The Past

Seasons and trends always change but what remains eternal are vintage clothing. Looking back is something that designers do usually travel in time and remember the best of fashion from decades past. Some seasons are given by the 20's and flappers, others by 50 and New Look silhouette, and this fall-winter 2011/2012, these three decades were the most inspirational to today's fashion designers: the 40s, 60s and 70s.So look the catwalks of the fall winter collection and be seduced by your favorite decade.



The 40s Inspired

The interwar period is a period of austerity, shortages, ration cards, but also of classic elegance and aspiration to the glamor of the golden age of Hollywood.




The collection that best reflects the fashion of the decade of the 40'swhich has been designed by Miucca,Prada ,Miu Miu: knee length dresses and shoulder pads marked by discrete patterns were the trends of that era.Even the pompadour hairstyle is faithful to the period. The "well dressed", the perfect set and impeccable go from head to toe. This tendency can make us look much older ladies, including actress image Miu Miu campaignHailee Steinfeld, just 15 years and looks like a grown woman in the photographs, so this trend may not work for everyone.
The 60s Inspired

If you fancy something more lively and colorful, go for the 60s look.Evas-line dressestops, coats matching dresses, pastel, cardigans,turtleneck sweaters and boots to the knee, take us to one of the most successful decades in terms of style and inspirational designs.



Seen in Prada, ValentinoBottega Veneta , the trends of shoulder pads and colourful printed shapes was a successful trned back then. and it's coming back.


The 70s Inspired
The decade of the 70s seasons prowling bears our closets, so once again, that is welcome. Put a little bohemian charm, much of the spirit of the 70s revolves around glam,fur and extravagance.
 

 So which decade are you gonna go back to?

H&M Singapore Opening on 3rd September!

The wait is almost over! I posted late last year
about
H&M opening in singapore and it's now it's been confirmed that it's going to be opening in Singapore on the 3rd of september!!! I'm super excited!!This is also super funny because yesterday I was obssessing over the H&M college clothes and even posted an entry about it and today I found out the opening date of H&M! It's very hard to find creative outfits around the central area of orchard road and now there is a heaven for me.  The 3,000 square
metre store will be in Orchard Building along Orchard Road near
313@Somerset (Opposite Orchard Cineleisure). The store opens at 11am and the first 300 customers on the opening day will get a S$20 H&M Gift Card.
I took some of the styles and prices available on the H&M website. Here are some of the fashion with the prices. Quite reasonable...
