Poly-wore

As what I’m wearing is a lot of thrift 80s gear, I noticed that it’s primarily made from polyester and is very flammable! Literally a hot outfit :D

Going Back

Ahhh, the vanity! So the post title “Going Back” really sumz up the fashion trend that has become an obsession lately. I may have been an 80’s baby but im certainly making up for the time now, coz im all about the old school! Call it pre-owned, pre-loved, second-hand, hand-me-downs, recycling, old school, thrift or vintage, the 80s and 90s have got a hold on me. Below are some of my recent buys, most of which are blouses, skirts and accessories (bags, jewellery). So if you want to save some cash, reinvent your style or broaden it beyond the chain store trends, hit up your local thrift and flee markets and grab yourself a bargain!

1st birthday of 2011 goz to..... Steve Man Steve

Hey Steve man Steve! I dedicate this post to you, since its your birthday next week. Lets go back to your Barbie theme 21st last year. First, finding your perfect dress dat didn’t cost you an arm and a leg (coz were students and wer poor!). The countless stores we searched, the racks we tore up, our feet swollen from pounding the pavement of the street and the many shiny marble tiles of the malls we ventured. Weird how I found my dress before you did and it happened to be the last dress in the shop, literally ripped off the mannequin for me to buy. But above all the anticipation of your party, researching, planning and prep was fun and in the end you created a party you’ll never forget. So your another year older with memories to look back on and a future to look forward to. So HAPPY BIRTHDAY STEVE, from your study buddy Murry.
