Inspiration is not a 4 letter word #4: Sita Abellán

Sita is not only a gorgeous model from Madrid but also a fabulous style icon to many. Her personal style is a mix of 90s cyber babe with a little gothicness and grunge and rock 'n' roll and some artistic high fashion flair and soft ghetto thrown in too. It's hard to explain but her style is incredibly unique and I AM OBSESSED. She seems so mysterious and elusive. If I saw her walking down the hallways in school, she'd be that goddess-looking, quiet girl who everyone seems to adore but they can't touch her because everyone knows she's better than they are. Idk she just has that cool girl aura. Here are some of her looks...

sit down, cujo





I am so happy that my platform sandals are finally here!!! I had to hunt through Aliexpress for them but all that effort was worth it. The price was reasonable too (less than USD$30). They came really fast which surprised me because shoes from China usually take awhile to reach you but these just came in about a week. The seller was also really nice and responsive. I also got some zipper earrings from ebae because I have one transparent spiral gauge on my left ear and my right ear felt kinda naked so yeah. They were just 99 cents so woohoo~ I'm not sure what the name of my dress is so I'm just gonna name it "The Cujo Dress".

Anyways, JUST ONE MORE WEEK TIL I GRADUATE HIGH SCHOOL!!! I am hella excited because the graduation is going to be held @ Houston and my family and I are gonna go on a road trip.

purple nurple



I'm not a beauty product kinda person. The most I've ever worn was probably some eyeliner and mascara and BB cream. However I have been lusting over purple lipstick ever since I first found out about Alisa Ueno. I know there's Lime Crime (I sell Airborne Unicorn on my online store here) but I wanted to try something new. So I set out on a little online adventure and found NYX Macaron Lippies. It's a line of recently released pastel and neon colored lipsticks. I don't really know much about make up but the lipstick was really easy to apply. It was really creamy and stays on my lips for quite some time. Gahhhh it's such a pretty color!!!!!!

interview time with...ANGELINE WOO the MOON CHILD (✪㉨✪)

I was scrolling through tumblr when I chanced upon a really cool image and usually when that happens, I check out the blog that the blog that reblogged it reblogged from the blog (???????). That's when I found Angeline's tumblr and I saw that she had her own personal style blog and I was so blown away by her style and individuality. She's the same age as I am which I thought was super cool and lives in Penang which is pretty close to where I was born, the sunny island of Singapore~ But I moved here to 'Merica 4 years ago though so it's always nice to find people on the interwebs who live in Singapore or nearby because it brings me back to the days when I used to live there (to any of my Singapore friends reading this: I MISS Y'ALL SO MUCH!!!). Anyways, enough of me and back to Angeline...



Describe yourself in 3 words.
Ambitious, introverted yet lively.

How do you keep your skin looking so fresh and kawaii?
My skin is like zombie skin ahahahah. Here's how I care for my zombie skin; I don't. AHAAHAHAHA. I only cleanse my face twice a day, and apply moisturizer right after; these are all NANO WHITE Infinity products. As for my body, I use some lotion called SKINZ UVWHITE cause it smells amazinggggggg, that’s about all.

What is your idea of perfect happiness?
Having an endless supply of sushi, seaweed and tofu. Okay seriously tho, my idea of perfect bliss would be having my own reserved forest to live in (in a super rad globe-shaped eco-friendly glass house) with the love of my life and having a happy cat as my happy assistant for my future happy fashion brand yah.

What is Penang like?
It's a mega food haven!!!! Besides that, the fashion scene here is ever-growing but people are still unpleasently narrow in terms of opinions. I used to have a ton of different hair colors (blue, purple, grey, green) and I get ridiculed for that by passersby quite a lot. Now that my hair is blonde, which I consider to be the normalest of all normal color, I thought I'd get less ridicules but heck I was wrong. Maybe it's not my hair. Hmmm. But of course, not everyone here is THAT unpleasant. There are also great people around (e.g: the cats and dogs and birds and lizards and cockroaches ahahahahhaha).

If you could change any one thing about yourself, what would it be?
I would change my hair color, like, instead of being born with jet black hair, I want to have natural blonde hair instead. So whenever I want to touch up my hair color, there's no need to go through the bleaching process!

Where do you get your inspiration from when picking out outfits?
I honestly don't know.. It's just a matter of mixing and matching. My wardrobe has more shirts than bottoms, so I normally choose a top which I feel like wearing and then miraculously find a bottom to match with it. I'm really into Harajuku street fashion so I guess most of my ideas are derived from the Japanese fashion scene.

What do you want to work as when you grow up?
A fashion designer. And a member of the Black Moon clan.

What do you like to do during your free time?
Besides rotting around in my sanctuary, I do lousy sketches and design simple-handsewn bags. I like to spend time making things, cause ya kno, the thrill of seeing your design coming to live is like.. seeing your first born (I don't know how it feels like but you ghet me ok). Once I get myself a sewing machine in the future, I'm gonna start making clothes! Heheheheheheh.

What are your top 5 favorite songs of all time?
1. Aoki Hibi by the Japanese indie group Plenty (cause it's relatable ok)
2. Shiroi Kuchibiruno Izanai by Mew
3. 1979 by Smashing Pumpkins
4. Fake Plastic Trees by Radiohead
5. Roses for The Dead by Funeral for a Friend

Where are your favorite places to shop at?
Online!!!!! I’m quite a fan of a local online shop called CAJOYNESS (they sell a variety of clothing from street wears to girly bits) and TEMPTATIONS (they sell pretty interesting stuff too and the owner is just as splendid!).

How would you describe your style?
This is hard.. ummmmm well I like a lot of colors while blending it with black. I’d describe it as casual Harajuku cause my outfits are practically very simple yet I like to mix it with some of my favorite DIY-ed backpacks and many other interesting accessories that I have.

What is the number one rule you live by?
“Never allow anybody to phase you”

What do you want to tell all your fans out there?
Fans!? This is really flattering!! I’d tell them “Be yourself and don’t let other people phase you! We live in a cruel world and the least we can do for ourselves is accepting and loving ourselves. Nobody’s gonna be kind to you so, don’t be mean to yourself, okay? Everything is guhna be ohkay *pat pat* also, thank you all for reading and following and enjoying and admiring and loving my blog, you guys are amazing!”

Inspiration is not a 4 letter word #3: Wifi'slilangel


Wifi's lil angel is the internet's soft ghetto princess. Her style radiates "you can't touch me bitch" while punching you in the face with a whole lot of kawaiiness. Think Based God in a pink Rilkkuma onesie while toting an AK-47 in one arm. Her baby face and soft grunge locks and her nonchalant swagger completes her look.

eyebrowz

before


When I first saw Ali Michael's eyebrows, I was like "yaaaassss slayyyy" so now I'm on a quest to get my eyebrows like hers because they are THE BEST IN THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE.
I've been using Vaseline on my eyebrows and eyelashes once every morning and night because I read an article that said that it'll help them grow and keep them soft and smooth like a baby's butt. I just put a tiny bit of Vaseline on my index finger (I make sure my fingers are clean and germ free beforehand) and lightly rub it into my eyebrows and then the same for my top and bottom eyelashes. 
We'll see how it goes in a couple of weeks :) *crosses fingers*

the shirt has a super cute bod of a baby on it thus making it seem like i have a super cute bod of a baby. i literally lol-ed at goodwill when i found it and just had to have it. i've always wanted a pair of high waisted shorts and found this amazing store on storenvy (the link is above). i got to order my own custom made pair of shorts and the owner is so lovely. i've also always wanted to own my own fluffy/furry/fuzzy jacket and found this on storenvy as well. its not going to be cold here in texas for awhile but i still got it because YOLO.

99 problems crop top // ebae
Plaid Jumper // I don't even remember
...........................
.................

.

It is 12.33am here and frick, I am so tired T.T But yet here I am, blogging and all. You can't really see it that well but the words on the crop top is holographic! I swear, this is my most favoritestest top I've ever owned!!! (i am crying its so beautiful) It's a replica of the much loved Everland crop top and I'm so happy I found it because it is literally half the price of what they're selling it for on Everland. Sigh, I love finding great deals like that. At first I had put the jumper on my waist to cover up my midriff but then I realised how cool it actually looks. Tying a plaid jumper/leather jacket around your waist is the in thing right now. Well, I better head to bed before my eyebags start growing even bigger. Toodleloo~
