Miss Self Portrait

photos by me

I'm back with another self-portrait series, ironically wearing a brand called Self-Portrait Studio. I can't say enough about how much I adore Han Chong's creations. I saw and tried on the spring collection and let's just say there is a strapless dress with my name on it. Now, if the sunshine continues, I can play around with more of what I like to call selfies. Canon 50D selfies, that is.

Paris you beauty

photos by me 

It's not often I fall in love with a city that I have been to a million times but this time Paris was different. For starters,  I did not use the metro at all, which, looking back, thank God I did not have to. Who wants to see a grown man pissing along the wall and a French rat giving you that ' qu'est ce que tu regardes connard ' look ? Non, merci. So yeah, this is the part whereby I give you a visual diary and a half-ass outfit post because who wants to see pictures of me when Paris and French wine are in the background, am I right ? Thought so. 

This is not a Canadian Tuxedo

I don't know what this is because even though it's double denim, it does not qualify as a Canadian tuxedo. There is something midwest prairie about the skirt, yet the top saves me from looking like my middle school Social Studies teacher who was from the midwest and wore full-length denim skirts and buttoned up shirts, on top of carrying a massive mobile phone which she must have had since before we were born. Yeah, let me not go into her hairstyle. 

So I found this skirt and bustier at H&M the other day and decided to give this look a go. Maybe at some point I will pair the top with jeans to give a Balmain-ish look or use the skirt as a picnic blanket ; either way I will get my money's worth out of this.
