Outfit Twenty Seven









 ♥ Modcloth Petite Pachyderm Clip . Siren Suzie Cardigan . ASOS Knitted 60s Shift Dress . Prada Gingerbread Man Brooch . Tiffany & Co. 1837 Lock Ring . Louis Vuitton Damier Papillon . House Of Holland For Pretty Polly House Tights . Marc Jacobs Polka Dot Ballerinas ♥
★ Bunny - Comme Des Garcons Play Cardigan . A Bathing Ape Baby Milo + Shark Tee ★



I am the biggest fan of brooches. I have so many in my jewellery drawers, it always amazes my friends (and sometimes even myself). My favourites are the ones made of colourful plastic or vintage bakelite; I simply love their glossy exterior and hard, slightly unrefined texture.

This Gingerbread Man is a cutie, I wanted to buy his girlfriend too but the detailing on her wasn't very persuasive. 

I wish I could wear my brooches out more often, but a lot of my clothes have crazy prints so whenever I wear something plain like this ASOS dress, I immediately whip out a brooch to match. ♥ 

My pet peeve though is that when you wear brooches, they often create holes in the clothing. No matter how miniscule, I just KNOW the hole is there and it drives me crazy to no end. That's why I bought myself some magnetic pins that secure the brooch in place without having to pin it through the fabric. Total yay-ness!! 

Hehe and I think after four (oops now five) paragraphs, you kinda get a small inkling of my brooch obsession... 

Anyhoo I had a lovely day out with my Bunny. We ate at our one of our favourite Japanese restaurants, did our weekly grocery shopping and most importantly, spent the day laughing and enjoying the company of each other. :)

  2. This is UNBELIEVABLY adorable. I love your outfit so much. It's so ditsy, playful and cute.

    I've never cared for buying brooches, recently I saw one in Topshop that was a mirror.. I got so tempted to buy it but didn't.

    After seeing these photo's, I think I'll look through the sale racks and root out some cute brooches!

    I love all the cat references on your page too, I have two kitties and love them dearly ^^

    Hope you've had a wonderful weekend.

  4. Awwww we have matching gingerbread brooches! :D
    Maybe I have the long lost girlfriend of yours? Haha.
    You're so colourful in this outfit! I love it. So happy to see you wearing colours despite the freezing weather - it makes me wear bland and dark colours most of the time!
    Happy to hear you had a great weekend with Bunny too!

  48. Oh Addie, you're just too cute. I so wish I could pull of the prints and cute-ness that you managed.

    Sounds like a perfect day- The Guy and I had a night of salad dinner and lounging on the sofa and sitting at the table, just talking and enjoying our company. So very nice.

  63. Dark blue, pink and lilac make a suprisingly harmonious combination! This outfit just exudes happiness. Those polka-dotted flats are beautiful (makes me happy when others love flats, too.)

    And brooches! Which I am also in love with, but never wear, for the reason you stated. I've got all these older ones that have HUGE pins on the back, and they will totally wreck fabric. Like anyone needs *intentional* holes in clothes.

    ReplyDelete
  64. Love reading your posts - they make me smile - you have an amazing sense of style too - thanks for your comment and i hope to see you again, will be coming back x

  91. The magnetic pins sound great. I have the same odd feeling when it comes to the tiny holes left by brooches.

    The gingerbread man certainly is gorgeous. I like the way you wear him in the centre of the dress so he looks like a pendant.
