Of Beige, Gold, Flappers, Lasalle Reunions and Life

~~~


So in love with this top. Alas, I accidentally yanked out two beads today and now I'm terrified the rest are going to fall out. Why do my garments always gravitate towards the nearest sharp, protruding object in the immediate vicinity? Am going to see if my seamstress can sew them back on. =(

I've been digging floaty, delicate beige and gold pieces lately, and flapper era-esque dresses. There's a dainty Chloé one I found that's very subtle, with light sprinklings of sequins and a hint of a flapper silhouette, and a Miu Miu top (also conveniently a golden beige) that has teeny tiny little pleats and gathers, a sheer chiffon panel at the top, and bead work.

Today, I attended a mini reunion with some old drama school classmates from Lasalle College of the Arts. It was interesting to say the least, as they weren't all necessarily the people I hung out with while we were at college, and I probably learnt more about a couple of them today than I did during all our college years combined. We went cafe and restaurant hopping from 2 or 3 in the afternoon till 10.30 at night, and midway, we realised it would be super to work together. So we wound up kickstarting a little film project that I hope takes off, as it sounds like a massive amount of fun, and a great creative outlet.

Am quite excited about a bunch of film and theatre projects I have lined up right now. Everything is falling into place quite quickly and I'm bathing in that lovely feeling of being inspired.
