Drifting Away To Uh Oh Those Summer Nights

Once you graduate from university, that’s it, summer holidays will never be the same. Actually, there is no such thing as summer anymore, now that I think about it. Hmm. The meaning of summer gets more vague as the years go by and it feels like a distant, perhaps even more so, like a parallel or alternate universe. For me, however, summer would always mean the months of March to May since that’s the day when the sun shines its brightest in the Philippines. It was always during this time when students get a break from the school year and just hit up the beach or travel somewhere, anywhere. Here in Singapore, I’m not really sure when it is since “summer holidays” differ for each student (am I right on this?) and everyone is just in a constant state of traveling (wads of cash + little space = a plane ticket to everywhere).

Ah well, I’m not really talking about summer but I’m talking about the heat. Oh yes, the heat. Or more like the hot girls boys of summer.  Actually, NO.  I’m talking about how Joseph Gordon-Levitt is gorgeous as ever. I had a massive crush when I saw him in Angels in the Outfield, I think I was seven or eight years old then.  Of course, he was awesome in 3rd Rock from the Sun, 10 Things I Hate About You, and he does remind me of Heath Ledger.  *swoons*  Gosh, all this talk about boys – it is so unlike me.


(500) Days of Summer debuts tomorrow, 17 July 2009

Bonjour Garance

If you were to ask me: If there was one fashion blogger that you would want to meet, who would it be?  I’d say Garance Dore in a heartbeat.

I just love her street style photos (one of the reasons why I should get a DSLR), her effortless sense of style, and of course, her illustrations.  More than anything, I adore her sketches.  Hopefully when I manage to get myself to France she’d have tea and biscuits with me.




All illustrations by Garance Dore.

Burst My Bubble

Susie, you're so quirky

It’s so nice to see Susie wear an ensemble with fun colors.  I once tried adding a splash of color to the usual monochrome outfits of office wear much to the horror and/or delight of many.  Of course, Susie’s outfit is way more kickass than mine and I am, in no way at all, trying to compare the both of us.  Clearly, I am but a mortal next to the fashion goddess known as Susana Lau.

Susie is more famously known for her blog, Style Bubble, and now enjoys the title of Commissioning Editor for Dazed Digital.  She’s part of the fashion blogger elite minus the air of entitlement, which is one of the reasons why a lot of people love her.

Come and be her groupie!
