The day the sun turned cold.

EVIL TWIN Distressed Denim Vest - Dotti Sleevless Khaki Shirt - Hilda Mae Pleated Skirt - Therapy Shoes Big Ben Boots - YesStyle.com Braided Tote - Vintage Printed Silk Scarf

I had intended to post these last night but of course my internet has taken a turn for the worse and decided it was no longer my friend. Sometimes it worries me how much I depend on technology.

Anyway - this is essentially what I wore yesterday to visit some beautiful PR friends (more on that later) minus the fantastic denim vest (replaced with a leather jacket because it got too damn cold). What I do enjoy about this vest and the sleeveless shirt together is that they both have a really similar shoulder cut, with the shirt extending slightly further so there's a bit of khaki peeking out the ends. On that note, I was discussing the benefits of khaki-and-burgundy combination with Lee and Yan yesterday, and we have come to the conclusion that one does not, in fact, look like a giant cranberry. Burgundy just happens to solve all problems in life - you should try it some time.

I got this vintage scarf at a friend's garage sale last weekend and it has been attached to me ever since (some creepy middle-aged businessman in the city certainly appreciated it...). The colour are quite something - I definitely need to play with using it as something other than bag embellishment!

P.S. in these dark hours of snail-pace internet, I would love you eternally if you trotted along to visit the Shine By Three facebook page :)

Get moving.

RAFW2011OutfitDay1

Events Military Blazer - NEUW Denim Denim Button Down Shirt - Hilda Mae Pleated Maxi - Covet Vintage Co. Envelope Clutch

Is it shameful that all I'm going to show you from Day 1 of RAFW is what I wore? At this point in the morning, I find it the only logical solution to getting some sleep some time soon :) rushing between uni and OPT really takes it out of you.

Having said that, I'll have detailed shots of this little ensemble up very soon - everyone appreciated Hilda Mae's super tight burgundy pleating. And I appreciated NEUW's denim. So much warmth in cold harbour-side times.

You have no idea how many subjects of lecture notes can fit in that clutch. And to the girl who asked on the train home, yes I did spend the entire day with this insanely collared blazer draped over my shoulders like a grandma.

I really enjoyed some of the shows today (LOVER's 10th year retrospective at the Opera House was absolutely breathtaking - will have photos up soon!) and it was so lovely to see some of my favourite people, finally meet some others who I've awkwardly known in the blogosphere forever, and to have a quick and happy chat with the lovely Miss Susie Bubble this evening. I'm such a dork.

Will keep you all updated!

But first, sleep.

*love*
