Outfit Post: Channelling Chanel [Black Outfits]

It’s been so long since I’ve posted an outfit post. I’m so sorry for my absence.
After seeing all the runway pictures these few weeks, I’ve been very inspired by runway looks and after getting my hands on a pair thigh highs that looks suspiciously like the ones from the Chanel Spring/Summer 2010 collection, I’ve decided [...]

Outfit post: Bittersweet Symphony [Black Outfits]

I am in love with this jacket I just purchased in London.

And these boots are made for walking and world domination.

Hairband: Forever21
Jacket: Zara
Dress: Mango
Tights: Bugis Street
Boots: Aldo

Outfit Post: Here is Gone. [Black Outfits]

Somewhere between my last post and now, I have hauled my ass to Germany and am having regression sessions in the snow. I find myself missing warmer climates suddenly, for I can actually wear nice clothes and show it off, instead of bundling everything up under a coat.

I swear I did not photoshop my face [...]

Outfit post: Madness of the Queen [Alice in Wonderland Inspiration]

Yes you saw this right. There is RED in this outfit. Don’t start freaking out or leave this page, I promise a good explanation for this. LOL.
I’ve had this jacket for the longest time but never really got round to wearing it. A signature piece from Vivienne Westwood, this heart lapel jacket has got to [...]

Outfit post: Fleurs du mal [Black Outfits]

I really do wish I could do a proper outfit post, but I am born and raised a tropical girl, and the cold here in London needs getting used to. So for now, the coat isn’t getting anywhere away from me.

I must admit, footwear for the cold remains a mystery to me. It’s surprising how [...]

Outfit Post: Malicious Misery [Black Outfits]

Ohai everyone. 久しぶり~!!!
It seems like a long time since I’ve posted an outfit I really wish I had a personal photographer to hang around me all day. But speaking of which, I had 2 person taking photos for me the other day. How lucky am I? It was a lovely day with Brad and [...]

Outfit post: Chain Reaction [Black Outfits]

If an article of clothing is a) black, b) draped, c) accessorized with chains, you can bet your last penny that we’ll be all over it like slobbering idiots. I’ve long given up trying to be less predictable.
What amazes me if that lately, I’ve been seeing more and more tops coming with chains attached. Whichever [...]

Outfit post: Hiver à Paris [Black Outfits]

Pardon the broken French.
I was in Paris 2 weeks ago and it snowed~!!!! *excitement* Well, it IS exciting for someone born and raised in the tropics, up till the point where my toes were freezing.
Sub-zero temperature is not funny. When will Spring arrive???

I found a small park where there were rabbit burrows and I spotted [...]

Outfit Post: View of Silence [Black Outfits]

Obviously I have been following in Dawn’s footsteps of naming posts under random music that pops up on my iTunes. And living on a healthy dosage of game/anime soundtrack, this is what it decided to bestow upon me.

I remember it was a particularly uninspiring day, with Dawn and I hanging at the rooftop like a [...]

Runway Review: Claude Maus S/S 2010

You know I have to admit I’ve never paid much attention to Australian designers since all the seasons are reversed in the southern hemisphere but with the recent surfing of many awesome Australian Fashion blogs like foxyman, leblogdesushi and seaofghosts I seem to be better educated in that part of the world now.

Today we feature [...]

Outfit Post: Heavy Metal [Black Outfits]

Had an enjoyable Sunday evening out having dinner with blogger friends ladyironchef, dweam and of course Dawn. Managed to sneak in some photos to feature Singapore streetstyles. We had tonnes of food. Thankfully these were taken before dinner so there isn’t any bulging stomachs in sight.

The outfit is a relatively simple one so I decided [...]

Outfit Post: Nightquest [Black Outfits]

I must say I am absolutely stumped when it comes to naming pictures. Right now, I am just shuffling through my iTunes library and picking out suitable titles. I am sure all of you will get a pretty comprehensive idea of what I listen to after a while, unfortunately.
So why is the title appropriate in [...]

Style Inspiration: Kate Lanphear

I would refer to Kate Lanphear as “the better Kate” (I’m sorry Kate Moss… no wait. I’m not sorry).

In fact she should be the Goddess we worship if there’s a Monoxious shrine as she fully encompasses the look that we go for when we post black outfits up on monoxious.com~!!

She just makes everyone wanna lop [...]

Outfit Post: Stardust [Black Outfits]

Starlight

Star bright

Outfit Post: Tokyo Ninja [Black Outfits]

Been long since we had a decent outfit post trying to feature Singapore Streetstyle. I blame it on the lack of inspiration. : (
As usual, there’s an extensive amount of traveling due to work (do not want!!!)  but luckily I ended up in Tokyo before the New Year.
It’s a little chilly but I love the [...]

Runway Review: Alexander Wang Prefall 2010

I have to admit, Alexander Wang’s Prefall 2010 collection isn’t one that makes me run around screaming in ecstasy, declaring my undying love for him.
I’m not saying that I didn’t like it, instead I take a look at my existing wardrobe and think of all the wonderful looks I could create to mimic this collection. [...]

Outfit Post: Caged soul, ripped hearts [Black Outfits]

My post titles all sound so cliche and morbid. I’m seriously out of ideas. I wonder if it’ll come to a day where we just have dates as our titles. That would be kinda sad I think.

I failed to mention that there is a sweet replica of the cage dress from Alexander Wang’s S/S 2008 [...]

Outfit Post: Away from the Sun [Black Outfits]

Why, yes, that is indeed grey you see right here. I really wish I could write something witty here, but studying for my last paper has eaten up what’s left of my brain. Like a zombie. Oh I love zombies. Okay I’ll shut up.
Black Outfit Breakdown:

Beanie: M)phosis
Scarf: [...]

Outfit Post: Crash and Bern [Black Outfits]

Dawn dared me to put up this lame title. To prove my over-inflated ego right, I did it. *gloom*
I was in Zurich for a few days and I decided to travel down to Bern to visit the beautiful capital of Switzerland.

Fall is hauntingly beautiful with all these fallen leaves.

Black Outfit Breakdown:

Coat: m)phosis
Sweater: Nasty Gal
Skirt: Some [...]

Outfit Post: Angel with the Scabbed Wings [Black Outfits]

Guess who is resurrected from the dead? Clue: it’s not a mummy. Although I could pretend to be one with the Herve Leger wannabe bandage dress.
Despite still having one last paper to hurdle over, I’d like to think that my exams are over. So here I am, back to camwhoring taking self portraits alone out [...]
