IJ friends are friends for life.

Right. The prom pictures are finally up(; I am utterly sorry for the late update... Hope you guys enjoy a few of the pictures i took at Raffles Convention Centre with my friends. Although i think i am not really gonna miss St Nicks but i am sure i'm gonna miss my friends very much. They are the ones that made school a better & happier place for me. True story. IJ friends are friends for life.

Anyway, i know what i wore for prom is extremely strange(and not appropriate for the event,says my sissy)but i really didn't feel like wearing the blue dress that i sew for prom. I promise to post pictures of the supposedly prom dress when i wear it out, alright?(: At the mean time,check the 2011 graduating batch from St Nicholas Girls' School.

Laugh it out!

A day without laughter is a day wasted-Charlie Chaplin(;

top: iora
wide leg jeans: Gap kids
metallic red sling shoulder bag: Asos
Red shoe:Keds

Top:DIY(BUdoubleLSHIT) but it`s originally a piece of T-shirt from TALHA USA
Slim-fit jeans or skinny jeans: Forever21
Peacock feather earring: Chinatown Flea

Can u imagine the t-shirt without the small smile above my belly button? It would be imperfect! I thought the shirt looked like a face after i snipped off the sleeves and cut strips of lines on the shirt, so i decided to add an expression onto the 'face'. Immediately after i cut a semi circle on the t-shirt, my sissy and i broke out into a laughter and i thought, if we are laughing at the 'smile' that means people may laugh at it too! Am i right? Lol. Anyway, hope you enjoyed the post!

 I just didn't know what to write about this post so i decided to be lame+random and do something short with all these pictures. Anyway, it is the very first post with my new hairstyle. I am really thankful to have such a talented aunt(Serene from Kimage-Kovan) to cut my hair. The awesome thing is that i never have to tell her what sort of hairstyle i wanted. I recommend you guys to get your haircuts from her, she's a senior hairstylist from KIMAGE and i can guarantee you that u`ll be satisfied with her skills. Pinky.

Have a good weekend as i enjoy my chinese noodles(pork+spaghetti) right nowww!

She`s going for a pj party! not.


This is gonna be the last post with pictures of my Cleopatra hairstyle. Looking at these pictures makes me wanna grow them back again.. i kinda miss it now:/ Anyway, the Bintan top is actually worn as pajamas(because it is such a comfortable piece of clothing) ,besides, judging from the tired and exhausted expression on my face,i`m sure u know why i decided to leave the house in pajamas. Thank God for the mustard coloured leggings from H&M and flower brooch from Cotton On Kids that made the whole outfit + my fatigue facial expression look livelier and more presentable. 
*p.s The flower brooch is finally mine and not my mommy`s one. haha


Top: a random top from Bintan

Birth of Pumpkin Swift

Heeyyy manxzxz! I`m back from turkey, prom is over and it`s time for Christmas and a Happy New Year! I`m so eggcited to show u guys most of the pictures of my new clothings that i`ve bought after my exams. They`re all from weid places, like the Zouk`s flea market ,Turkey and a shop at a secretive corner in Bukit Timah Shopping Centre. Most of them are first hand stuffs and the rests are thrifted clothings? Most slightly. Anyway, the few pictures below are taken long time ago.. i know i`m really late and slow..my bad AGAIN. )':



Blue top:Just Jeans
The colourful print sleeveless top below is a piece of clothing i sewed myself. Although the material may be a bit stiff but the combination of the colours(that reminds me of Dinosaurs ,for no apparent reason), makes the clothing look comfortable. Hence, i decided to use the material to make a top, since i love the prints so much and it`s for myself so it doesn`t matter if it`s not so soft. 

As for the blue skirt, it is also my creation. It is the first piece i did with proper measurements and drawings  on tracing paper, like a professional seamstress(; Honestly, i hate all the measuring, drawing, tracing, pinning, cutting and ironing. It`s so much work to do just for a piece of clothing but i must say that the feeling after completion is almost priceless. The work, effort and time put into making the piece of clothing becomes worth it, when people tell u that the skirt is so beautiful, and even ask where did u get them from and blahblahblah. The feeling is PRICELESS.

Similarly, the shoe is designed,painted and the sewing of the beads are done by me(; I like to call my creations Shien so from now on i`ll be calling my own clothings Shien,ogay? Anyway,i`m planning on working on my drawing skills right now.. have been visiting the library, borrowing books like `Teenage Vogue for..`(can`t remember the title of the book) and`Fashion Design Techniques` by Zeshu Takamura to master figure drawing in 7 days and to learn body parts & garment drawings. They are really inspiring and motivating books for people who are interested in Fashion. The library is going to be second home really soon!
the red bag:ASOS


Jumper: Samuel&Calvin
Long sleeve top:JONES NEW YORK
Loafers:Everlast
The many layers heart shaped brooch is a Teachers` Day gift for my Mother but i borrowed it since she doesn`t wear it all.




Top:Cotton On Men
Bottom:Lea Girl
Flats:Rubi
Earrings:SIX
Lipstick:Topshop
The brooch that i pinned on the jeans is also another gift of my mommy`s!


"Heeellloo! My name is Pumpkin Swift Lim and u can see my birth cert above. I`m only a few months old and i`m a fattyfatty boomboom!" 

"No one bullies Pumpkin! I`ll chew your feet off if u dare!" says Elisa, the mother of Pumpkin Swift.

All this pictures were taken on the 24th of October 2011,my dearest Daddy`s birthday. He probably did not expect us to do anything for him on that day becos it was the first day of Olevels.But we ended up surprising him with a brownie birthday cake with a few relighting candles and a few of his favourite food, like rojak, teochew porridge,jiu chen gao(direct translation:9 layers kueh),peanut toast bread,tutu kueh and another kueh with peanut inside. My daddy is a big fan of chinese food...BUT becos he is such a wonderful and self sacrificial father, he took leave and brought his three princesses to Lawry,the Prime Steak. What an awesome father he is,isnt it?

salad in making!
the steak so sexy(;

one month late:/

hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii guysssss(:
I.AM.BACK.
YAY!
hahah okay. Olevels is finally over and im soooo excited right now because i can finally play and do things that i enjoy without feeling guilty. It`s an absolutely wonderful feeling. whee!(: Anyway, the few up coming posts are actually 1 month late? yea...im terribly sorry about it...But no worries becos im already an alumni of St Nicholas Girls School, i no longer have to studystudystudy like a depressed child until the end of jan, when my results are out. i can blogblogblog like a free bird!
Anyway, the following posts will have many photos and less words,as stated above, they are pictures taken  a month ago so i probably cant remember what i did on that day/night because i was probably worrying for my exams and feeling guilty for not studying,most of the time. So, just enjoy the pictures and have a good day!(;


top:TALHA USA
(but i cut off the sleeves and cut some fringe at the bottom of the tee)
shorts:forever21
shoes:converse
bag:from Cambodia
Another day, another set of clothings that i wore to church on a Sunday(;
The purple top is supposedly a dress for children. But the thing is that it was a turtle neck dress and Singapore is always 100 degree celsius hot(just like how my dearest cousin,Karen, would describe about the weather in Singapore) so i only wore it when i`m overseas. Besides,i am somebody that likes to keep my stuffs in the cupboard forever and never ever dump or give them away becos i just cant bare to part with them:/ so one day when i was packing my cupboard, i noticed the dress lying in a corner of the cupboard and hoped that i could still fit into the dress. While i continue to pack and arrange my clothings, i came out with an idea to cut off the turtle neck and the long sleeves so that i can make the dress into a tunic for myself! i just love to DIY my old stuffs...Anyway,recycling is goood and environmental!(;
top: snipped the label off  so that i can squeeze my head into the kiddy dress
bottom:G2000
purple lipstick:NyxCosmetics
heels:ASOS
HUH?! IM DONE WITH TWO POSTS? THAT`S FAST! HURRAH! more posts to come in these few days(;
