I've moved on...
...to a different domain. Why, what were you thinking? The truth is, I just woke up one day and decided it's time for a change—a metamorphosis, if you will; or, in layman's terms, if Britney can shave her head, then maybe so can I? Nevertheless, it's been a rather handsome 10 years of talking to you, and thank you for putting up with all my moodswings and terrible dad jokes. Fear not! The hormonal imbalance and jokes are more terrible on CUBICLE, see you there.

Jacket KappAhl Top, Leggings Topshop Belt Mum’s Shoes H&M Hat Christie’s (The Hat Company ebay) Bag DIY Studded Vintage

The blog was starting to look like an essay blog, huh. Sorry about the last post, I promise I’m usually a very forgiving, cheery person! :D I just don’t like when people challenge my knowledge in my own damn profession. I know my shizzle, that’s why I get paid for it.

Beautiful weather in London today btw, looks like spring is finally coming around.

(Check out The Hat Company ebay store for high quality bowler hats by Christie’s. Handmade with beautiful lining, and at £25, so affordable.)

    since you’re wearing a bowler it’s okay to be a little feisty. It’s like a clockwork orange. But instead of moloko with knives it’s fonts and graphic design. Tt’s super annoying when people make idiosyncratic arguments against general advice.

    What a glorious outfit!! I love the way you belted the loose shirt, and the boots, and the hat to top it all off!

    And yeah, I always check the boys’ section! I got this navy suit blazer there (perfect fit, hits me at the hips with cropped sleeves (I guess since it is, after all, a boy’s suit jacket..) with gold buttons (not as cheap as the ones I replaced the black one with, since this one actually has some weight to them, haha) a couple of years ago and it’s basically my spring jacket. So easy to just put on and throw things in the pockets. And it always dresses up an outfit!

    You should definitely start checking.. though I get a little weary with the condition of the jacket and smells and what might have happened to them.. you know? Kids will be kids..

    The red hat looks awesome on you. This type of hats wouldn’t suit me I think but as everyone else said, you make it work!

    By the way I posted a pic of my studded vest but I’m still not sure whether to continue or not. What is your expert opinion?? :)
