That Second Skin

As they resurrected their way back to fashion in '06, I thought the era of the leggings ended along with the year and won't be back at least for a decade. But that notion was wrong.

After they disappeared for a while (at least from my sight) , it crept its way back to fashionista's wardrobe recently. But this time, instead of being plain colored or with a touch of a bit of lace at the end, it came back with a twist!

The most popular would be wet look leggings which looks like leather. I guess the one responsible for making it ubiquitous would be Rihanna.

But it didn't stop there. There's also printed leggings, which doesn't really suit to my liking. But who knows, maybe I might change my mind someday and eventually wear them? In fact, after looking at the picture below, I started to be somewhat interested in getting one. Hmm...

And there's also denim leggings, which is my current obsession. While looking for a pair of skinny jeans last weekend in Topshop last weekend, my mother got these leggings instead.


This is a good alternative to those who fancy skinny jeans but want to give their leg a break from that tightness. I was going to buy one too, actually. But I already fell in love with this skinny jeans and couldn't resist in purchasing them Hence I was broke and got to hold that idea until payday arrives. *sigh

Toss the Feathers

Please excuse me for being such a bad blogger for my last entry being posted more than a month ago. Not that I'm busy, but sometimes I've got so many things on my mind that I find it hard to choose which one I should share.

Anyway, I've got an upcoming gig this Sunday, and as usual a week before the gig I start to brainstorm the ideas to find the right style to match with the occasion. As for this gig, I'm particularly looking for feather headpiece.

I started browsing and found these cute headbands on Urban Outfitter website that I think will match my desired style perfectly.

Unfortunately they're not available in Indonesia :( So I searched for other options and went to Forever 21 website. And, I found this!

I'm going to check whether it's available or not in Grand Indo's Forever 21 tomorrow. I really hope it is..

But, in case I couldn't find any headpiece that match my desire, I might try this really cool do-it-yourself feather headpiece tutorial I stumbled upon on youtube. Can't wait for tomorrow!

What's Sydneyrini Been Up To?

One of my new found favorite past time would be playing around with polvyore!

What's polyvore, some of you might wonder. As I quote, "Polyvore is a free, easy-to-use web-based application for mixing and matching images from anywhere on the web. It is also a vibrant community of creative and stylish people. "

Hmph, not sure if I fall into those two categories: creative or stylish. But anyway, here are some of my attempts to fit in.
Subtle
I wonder if Rihanna would wear 'em? I would be very flattered.


Sweet in Black
All black can be sweet, can't it?

Slouchy Chic

Awh, those pants look so comfy... I want one!

I guess three sets should be enough - I'll leave you curious and crave for more so you would go here to check out more of my "work" (insert evil laugh here).
