The elves and the shoemaker

Remember my confession on trying to read more in March 2011? My fairy God mother must have been listening to all my confessions or she has been reading my blog.

Two days ago, I waltzed into Kinokuniya to get the book One Day and found myself spending more time at the fashion section.

Sitting quietly on the tables was the latest book by Camilla Morton’s book. After romancing Lacroix’s whimsical dresses, she makes you fall in love with Blahnik’s tastefully designed shoes. I didn’t even know she has launched a new book!

These fashion designers sure know how to draw for pages after pages were brilliantly coloured illustrations.

Drool… Just drool…

Now I just can’t wait for her next collaboration with Diane von Furstenberg.

Of coffee, good friends and autumn leaves

November came and went… silently… December has arrived.

As I score zero on the shopping chart - after all, did you hear that Chanel has increased prices once more? And my 2.55 has doubled its value (and slightly more) in just merely two years? - I did set my eyes on meeting good ol’ friends this festive season.

Everyone loves a meet up over Starbucks. Proof that we are all Starbucks addicts. All drinks were on the house (13th cup).

This Christmas (rather pre-Christmas) I gifted my friends with this lovely cup from starbucks.

One wish I have to get granted one of these days is to drink a cup of coffee mix with eggnog.

Though having felt extremely guilty for bursting my shopping budget time and time again… I did succumb to adding this little number to my closet. I usually steer far away from prints, but there is just something about these that I just fell instantly in love with.

Remind me when 2012 comes, I ought throw out some clothe, reinvent my wardrobe and blog more often.

Merry Christmas everyone!
