Mood Indigo

Mood Indigo 02, originally uploaded by Theresa Di Moan.

There are only a few things originated in the 80's I can see myself doing again: loop earrings, leggings and the colour purple.

I found myself particularly intrigued by purple recently... It even got to the point of me obsessing over this pair of ankle strap sandals by Fluevog, and painting my toe nails with a matching purple nailpolish. The result on its own was near revolting, as it made my skin look so pale, my feet looked as if they belong to the nearest post-mortem freezer. Ouch! Nevertheless, with the slightly-punk-twist on a pair of Tango sandals, a bouquet of purple tulips and cheap but purposeful little purple handbag, I think I got my perfect purple look!

You'd never catch me with these wearing a purple dress, by the way, should not and would not be purple. Either my halter olive dress, brown shoulderless dress, or a pair of jeans with a muted dark but funky top.

Don't you love mood indigo?

Pink Purse

Pink Purse, originally uploaded by Theresa Di Moan.

This crescent shaped hot pink faux-leather purse is one of my favourites. It's equally stylish and practical - a rare phenomenon. And what more, it cost me only $18 at the shoe repair shop on Davie @ Jervis.

There are a couple of compartments inside - one with a zipper, where I keep my make-up and pens etc., and one that seems to be waiting to nestle a cellphone. Personally, I prefer the lace-up pockets at the tip of each side of the crescent for the cell phone. Saves the time required for digging and unzipping...

The contents of the bag as seen in the photo above:
BAD Gal Lash mascara by BeneFit
Clinique's Color Surge Impossibly Glossy lipgloss in Prettiest Pink (#102)
Agent Provocateur's purse perfume
Stella in Two Amber solid perfume
My Motorola flip-phone which shows the time when the picture was taken. This should be the sole purpose of it's existence if you ask me...
