    Who is your inspiration? However cliché that might sound but that’s the question that is genuinely going in my head when I see people with amazing personal style. The beauty of personal style is that it’s personal to each of us. Inspiration is all around and the way we incorporate in our lives/style is what makes us all wonderfully unique.  Speaking of personal style – my addiction for peter pan collars, ruffled sleeves and sweatshirts was inspiration for this outfit. This look is about everything I love! I got this dress from a local brand in Tokyo and I love it, I’m trying to find a similar one here to keep in my shop. Everything else I’m wearing is thrifted. I have been thrift shopping from ages and I’ve always found something that suits my style and budget. Last week I went to shop alone to a mall where two of my favourite stores were recently opened (Forever 21 and H&M). But what I realised after 3 hours of shopping was that I couldn’t find anything that I could relate to. I was really shocked and amazed at myself that in three hours of roaming in these two stores – all I bought was a pair of socks. I’m stuck with thrift shopping for life! 😀

    Until next time!

    hey hey hey! HAPPY FRIDAY and look what I have here!

    A cheerful reminder that it’s time for another Musical Fridays post.

    img_7525 Musical Fridays - Classics and Music from TV shows!

    1. You keep me Hangin on – Vanilla Fudge 
    2. Cha Cha Twist – Ty Taylor 
    3. School – Supertramp 
    4. Feeling good – Nina Simone 
    5. Hold the line – Toto 

    I’ve been into all kind of music lately and I come across some really amazing music through TV shows. I never use to like music from TV shows, but lately it’s been getting better and better. So, the first song in the list – You keep me hanging on by Vanilla Fudge is really addictive. There are songs that grow on you slowly and some just hit you instantly. I came across this song through Mad Men and I loved it the first time I heard it.  I also like music from Breaking Bad, Crystal Blue Persuasion and Baby Blue are probably my favourite. Second song in the list Cha Cha Twist – came across this song in this REALLY COOL Tv Series – Vinyl. Just download the music from this series. Really. So bloody cool. There is another song called – Hand Clapping Song by The Meters – love that one too! School by Supertramp is pretty old, just wanted to share because I love it and Feeling Good by Nina Simone – I came across via Jockey ad.:) I am starting to enjoy to enjoy gospel music as well.  Sinnerman, Man! Hold the Line by Toto – is from Arrow Classic Top 500 songs of all time. Need no convincing! 🙂

    I hope you guys enjoy this music! 🙂
