vintage lovers

weighing a mere 41.5kg, i look like i have adam apple

so i stopped procrastinating today. sort of.

i took the first step to build the header for the new site. lately, shopping blogs are popping up like ’shrooms on cow dung after the rain. looking at the mountains of vintage loves i’ve collected, i think it should be the right time to share the love.

3 years ago, i made a mini fortune online (blogspot & ebay) selling handmade jewelleries and jinkies to support my mahjong fund. i shut it down as i moved back to malaysia to be tied down to my full time job and. no, my dad didn’t send me to architecture school to make jewelleries, hand bound notebooks and home made dresses.

as my health went downhill, i realized my full time job should not suck up my soul. so i kind of left. under health circumstances as well.

just in case you’re wondering, i’ve been collecting my home-made jinkies and loads and loads of vintage clothes for vintage lovers like me again.

one thing that sucks big time living in malaysia? getting your hands on vintage clothings is almost an impossible mission. oh how i miss those days when i dive into piles and piles of bundles.

ok so i’ve let out my not so secretive secret anymore.

phew.

time for bed.

oh ya. i picked up a wig from ken. i love new hair!

    the most annoying thing about vintage in asia, i’m slowly realising, is that so much of it is just crap - like faux vintage from thai markets. there’s ok-vintage which is so much more than you would ever want to pay at savers or st vinnies back home in melbourne and the amazing stuff, like vintage dior or what not is simply non-existent unless you call it in. feeling your pain ;(
