People all around are like walking advertisements, from the outright parading of branded items, LV, Gucci, Levis, Abercrombie, Adidas, Havaianas, Birkenstocks, even FBT shorts is a brand k...

then there are the more subtle but nonetheless, a 'brand' of their own, i brand those as 'statement shirts'. I heart geeks, My boyfriend is cuter than yours, I only look innocent...

then the whole trend of long chunky accessories, dangling earrings, or oversized studs nowadays

what I mean those as walking ads too is because they are promoting the fashion they wear, they are trying to make a fashion statement albeit more towards a collective one. and shallow people like me love to look at people and what they wear. More now than before, I get influenced by the herd mentality, the more I look at certain style of fashion, the more I will like it. (except for Crocs which i will NEVER be conned into buying one) Just like the other day when I went to Bugis, the shops there are quite similar in the type of clothes they sell. It's like retro fashion, vintage wear. and I actually found myself checking out polka dots!!! Which I hated before. Im not even sure whats my personal style. But I love my feminine side, thus I don't think i will ever be able to pull of those attitude tees. And I always succumb to looking at dresses and shawls though their usage is quite low.. but they're so lovely....

I nearly wanted to buy this flowery tube dress, only thing holding me back is its 59 bucks..tho thats quite cheap still for a dress but i wasnt willing to part with so much money at one shot =) and the nagging feeling whether its too flowery.

so i settled for this instead (a steal at $27! tho cutting at the bust not as nice...)

I had a willing model =)

and I dunno what point im trying to make in this post anymore so I shall shut up

p.s. (cant shut myself up, and this had nothing to do with the ads part but just an observation on hari raya here, since i bought the dress on that day. I dunno why the malay families here dress in same colour combination..is it to bring a closer sense of familial ties? or just the practical reason of saving cloth. Malays back home don't come all decked in green/blue/silver)

p.p.s. this is perhaps the first ever hari raya that I didnt hear the selamat hari raya song
