OOTD - Hyoyeon inspired

This look was inspired by a shoot Hyoyeon from SNSD (Girl's Generation) did for the November 2011 Vogue Girl Korea issue. SNSD recently made a comeback with "The Boys" and although SNSD are super popular, I think Hyoyeon sometimes does not get as much exposure as the other members so I'm glad she finally got to do her first solo photoshoot :) I like the dark gothic feel of the shoot, sorta like a witchy-pilgrim??   Anyway here's my outfit of the day and remember to check Hyoyeon out in Invincible Youth Season 2 along with fellow SNSD member Sunny ^_^

OOTD

 Spotted blouse from my latest Gmarket haul! I had to get in quick since the seasons are opposite in Korea and Australia, so the majority of clothes in the Gmarket stores are winter when it's summer in Australia and vice versa in winter.... I get so hot just by looking at the winter clothes in this Australian heat! So I basically have my winter clothes ready in half a year in advance, lucky Korea's fashion forward. I love getting a large Gmarket package in the mail, it's like unwrapping a present!!! (that you paid for... but still!) All this talk about Gmarket reminds me I haven't been on Gmarket for a while now.... hhmmmm I think I'm due for another delivery!!

The arm holes for the blouse are kinda tight... damn korean girls and their skinny arms!! *goes cries and eats a donut*

OOTD - Way back when....

Looking through some of my old jewellery the other day and found all my "cartoon" jewellry so I thought I might throw on some old threads and reminisce. I had a stage where I was obsessed with anything bright, neon and toy-like probably to coincide with my obsession with Key from the korean boyband SHINee..... during the days where they promoted "Juliette" all the boys (especially Key) wore brights with toy jewellery.

So this is my homage to Key and his fabulousness.... 

Key and his accessories :)

OOTD - H&M groupie for life

On my second trip to South Korea at the end of 2010 I discovered what just maybe heaven on Earth *cue choir of angels*...... H&M!!!!!!!!! OMG how much to I love this place!! The clothes are to die for and the prices are reasonable (ish). But what I think I love most is specifically the H&M in South Korea is the sales! I'm not sure about other countries but the sales in South Korea are awesome especially when you convert the price into Aus dollars!!! I went to H&M everyday religiously when I was there, you know it's good when they have two H&M stores literally 100 meters away from each other in the same shopping district (Myeong-dong) and it's constantly packed. I checked out other places like Forever 21 and Zara but nothing beat H&M for me, the clothes are exactly my style. I kinda regret not buying more things while I was over in Seoul because there were a lot of things that I loved but I was stingy and only went for the sale items.... So enough with the H&M fan-girling because anymore would just make me depressed that we don't have one in Aus :( 

My outfit of the day featuring my H&M black and white blazer, which I recently found out Rihanna wore in her "What's My Name" music video! Now I just need the red hair a la Ronald McDonald ( I would seriously consider it if I could).......

 Black dress worn as top: Dangerfield

Black and white blazer: H&M

High waisted black shorts : Supre

Black wedges: ASOS

Leopard Bag: D.I.Y

Gold chain black ribbon necklace: Diva

Multiple gold and silver chain necklaces: Diva

Glasses necklace: Gmarket

Gold armour ring: Diva

Black glasses: Gmarket 

STYLENANDA order arrived (review coming soon!)

Disclaimer: I bought all these products with my own money and these are my true and honest opinions, I am in no way affiliated with stylenanda.com.

I ordered a couple of things off of STYLE NANDA (http://en.stylenanda.com/) and received my order three days ago, it took ten days for the package to be delivered to Australia by EMS which I think is pretty good. BUT!! In the box there was a note saying in order to get my items delivered as soon as possible some items are missing and will be shipped later so I'm missing a gold watch that I ordered.....errmmm I don't know how I feel about that.... it just better come soon!!! Anywho here is what I got so far...... 

1. Here is the box the package came in

from left to right: GT05, GT01, GT03, GT02, GT08, GT07

Love the packaging, very stylish!

2. Glitter nail polishes ($4.59 US each): I ordered a variety of glitter nail polishes because I love the bling bling! On the website the nail polish seemed quite dense from the pictures with a lot of glitter paritcles, I hope it's the same in real life....

3. Black mascara ($19.08 US): The interesting thing about this mascara is that the wand changes in its length and width by twisting the bottom (I'm such a sucker for novelties). It's suppose to give extra length and volume because the different sizes of the wand do different jobs.... we'll have to wait and see.

The picture on the website, big difference hey?!

4. Two pairs of glasses ($12.02 US each): I don't need an excuse to buy glasses so these were a given cart item when I was browsing STYLE NANDA. I'm disappointed how the beige ones turned out :( The picture on the website made them look more beige in colour with hints of green, sort of like marble? anyway they turned out more of an orange/brown colour and not as opaque and looking more cheaper than I thought :(

3. Freebie: Lastly I got this navy nail polish for free. It's nothing extraordinary but you really can't go wrong with navy nail polish so keep them freebies coming!!!!

I also got a grey nail polish just to push my cart over $100 dollars so I could get $10 shipping (they offer $20 shipping for orders under $100, $10 shipping for orders $100-$200 and free shipping for orders $200+). And I'm waiting for my gold watch....

So that was my first taste of STYLE NANDA, the clothes and accessories on the site are cute but a little expensive for me so I only ordered a couple of things especially since I can't tell the true quality of them, I don't want to risk a lot of money and be disappointed in the end *cough cough beige glasses cough cough*
