More Past Outfits

[ 16 January 2007 ]

I thought I’d write up some more of my outfits — what worked, what didn’t, & how I’d change it if I was going to wear it again.


Daily Outfit, 15th October 2006.

Two days after I had arrived in Melbourne (& my suitcase had finally arrived from Singapore — I was never so happy to see my clothes in my entire life).

<3 White vintage dress
<3 NYC Carousel t-shirt which i cut the sleeves from
<3 Turquoise cardigan from Topshop
<3 Blue legwarmers
<3 Blue/pink Reebok Icecreams

This outfit was so comfortable & I really love the way it looks. I usually dislike wearing flat shoes because I feel like they just do NOT flatter my legs, but I managed to solve this problem by wearing matching leg-warmers. Yay! I love the fact that it all matches without being obscenely “matchy-matchy” — I have a royal blue headscarf & a royal blue t-shirt, with a turquoise cardigan & sky blue legwarmers & shoes. The white dress breaks up the colour so it’s not too overwhelming… but I was definitely the most colourful person at breakfast!



Daily Outfit, 3rd November 2006.


<3 Long black light-weight hoodie
<3 Boy singlet with pirates on it
<3 3/4 length pants
<3 Mismatched high heels

I wore this the day after all my clothing arrived from New Zealand. I had so much stuff & nowhere to put it & I was completely incapable of putting an outfit together, so I went for black. The singlet was from the children’s section of a department store — I love kid’s singlets, they’re great, I have a whole lot. Though it’s probably only something you can pull off if you have a flat stomach & chest to match! The one in the picture has one-legged pirates, treasure chests & ships all over it, & blue accents. My two mismatched shoes are the same brand & came from Patricia Field in NYC — the blue one goes with my singlet & the pink one goes with my hair. I really liked how this looked, & then went out for the evening, but found I couldn’t walk home in my shoes. I was piggybacked while I carried them, not very stylish!



Daily Outfit, 10th November 2006.


<3 Bunny-ears!
<3 Hello Kitty hairclip
<3 Blue silk dress from a weird hippie shop
<3 Pink silk dress from Topshop
<3 Wedges
<3 Hello Kitty wristband
<3 Toy handcuffs

Yes. Perhaps this outfit is on the wacky side. I still like it, though. If I were to wear it again, I’d change the shoes — the wedges are too busy & the black’s a bit heavy. I also now have shoes which would complement the blue dress underneath — these, which I adore. Also note: the day I wore this, I got hugged by a guy in a bear suit!


Super-love & cupcakes,
Gala <3

  2. I love it but it wasn’t very well-made. It ties in the back & one of the attached sides ripped off! I fixed it, but still, it was pretty sad. The brand of the pink dress is “Uttam London”, so you should check Ebay for similar stuff. http://cgi.ebay.com/RED-JAPANESE-STYLE-KIMONO-DRESS-WITH-SASH-SZ10-UTTAM_W0QQitemZ250072362569QQihZ015QQcategoryZ53157QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem !!

    & to answer your question, I have only lived in two countries (New Zealand & Australia) but I have travelled quite a lot, ever since I was young.
