it's AfterSchool

the menu uses the old school copybooks we used as kids

the entire space is washed out and minimal
filled with old wooden long benches, and student desks with drawers
one of the tables is actually a door!

this was a sign in the toilet
go figure : )

old scale

: )

it's a skull world

Chanel, Deconstructed

a darling friend makes dresses and jewelry in her own time
I adore this one, it has the perfect nipped shoulders and a little lace shawl
she walked into Chanel and the staff asked her
'is this a vintage piece from us?'

Barbed Sparrow

B A L M A I N

one flew over an extremely fashionable cuckoo's nest

finally . I got my paws on Balmain-style nipped shoulders blazer

one cannot imagine just how fucking happy I was when i saw a shop FULL of them

in addition I also bought

a few shape shifters (military) boots

one is washed out and the other has hidden leather studs

a gorgeously fluffy rabbit fur drop shoulder cardi

(but I think it's fake rabbit fur,

cause I know secret lover will hit me if I wore our rabbits around!)

softest fake fur I've ever felt though!

a few ways to fold up or fold 'em down

shall practise

absolutely in love peacock feathers right now

I want it on my fingers

I want it on my shoes

I want it as a shawl I want it in my hair

I want it in an explosion around my waist

la dee da

I also got a boyfriend blazer (velveteen collar)

and an oversized black raincoat like thing

(like bat/flying squirrel H & M coat that I have, but in much lighter fabric

and less geometrically fab. but hey its lesser 10 times the price )

tee hee.

A biscuit of tea

UFO like tea packaging haha!

my 公公 said that

普洱茶要 steep slowly to release the colour,

whereas 鐵觀音d葉 比較 'young'

so if you steep too long it'll have a really bitter flavour

a little bit of tea trivia for the day!

婆婆 uses pliers to break up the hard biscuit of tea leaves

Fat Monkey

yay. good to be back

a disappointing visit to Wanchai Art Centre
thank god it was just a quick stop over before lunch

must be a Marc Newson fan

cute, from scraps

wax clothing anyone? fetish

ok i have NEVER witnessed THIS before, haha , GOAT with entire head intact!

quite rightly captures how I feel

nice location

cat on a leash. hmm . I do not approve.

Buys:

Chanel-esque cardi? : )

Design By NoBeing
lack of website; simply adore the stuff from this shop,
I think this is rather Vivienne Westwood classic
(haha just making myself content with limited cash)
anyway there was a lot of awesome jewelry sort of like gothic Victorian style
little birdie told there IS an online shop but it's exclusive and for Japanese shoppers only

asymmetric biker studs. zomg !
wanna be Ann Dem boots,
real cow hide
real cheap .
yay


productive-ish first day
