The hippie is back! with a vengeance

The hippie is back!!

Let your hair down...Janet

Most recently...enjoying letting my mane down with feminine curls..

at the Tangs' Pavilion Fashion Liberation Party with Chelsia Ng (left) and Joanne Stevenson (right). I dig the funky get-up by the two ladies next to me!
this one by an old friend John Ong,(check out his happening site) Nell Ng joined the crowd

just four days before...at the BCBG Maxazria media launch at Pavilion KL...day party, where I sang
make-up by Eunice @ A Cut Above at BSC

At night, where I performed at the Wine Room re-opening party. Thanks to Celeste and Veron who gave me the idea of wearing my big-ass red flower in my hair instead of on my waist.

Now the dresses...
Day dress, from the new Fall collection @ BGBG Maxazria
Night, an old eyelet dress from Cats Whiskas

The bird nest and the smoky eyes

All this extreme back-combing is taking a toll on me, mentally...seeing all that hair that came away with the washing and combing my hair slowly into place, painfully - I decided I need to consider some serious alternatives to style my hair for performances. My man suggested cutting my hair real short and keep a collection of wicked wigs for my performances (!!!!). I will start shopping and sourcing for hair pieces I could buy to reduce all that madness styling with my guy at A Cut Above. Each time Sam performs stunt-work on my hair half of the salon population stand behind him and watch him build yet another tower/bungalow on my head.
As for making-up my own face, it's a continuous and slightly frustrating process but fun at the same time...I like to think that I'm getting better all the time :)

This is a safe look for performance but I wonder what other hot siren look I could try my hands on...any idea?
and am mad about colors....and silk.

here and there

A cool and cosy house dinner party on a warm October night...Nell posed at hostess - Susheela's beautiful `hang-out hall'

A Kebaya Raya for me at Attic on Oct 12, 2007. The guys running the bar gave me a nice hamper for `best dressed patron' that evening. See what being vain can get you sometimes :) I was wearing a handmade (a vintage piece, sewn by none other than my man's granny about 40 years ago) organza-like kebaya top


Sep 16, teasing a laugh from my teary soprano friend Sook Siak, at her wedding lunch. She was to move her work from KL back to home town Johore with her hubby...hence the reluctant goodbyes. She looked like a possible Contessa for Mozart's Figaro, I was wearing an old dress bought from flea market at least four years ago.

Speaking of celebrations, I had the honour to attend Mia Palencia's birthday do at the Attic back in early September where I met with Tria Aziz for the first time since I last saw her during M! The Opera's curtain call.

I love what she wore that day...simply brilliant!
and of course she was her usual goofy self, never taking herself too seriously though looking seriously chic.

The birthday girl Mia showing off the ring I got her
and the gorgeous necklace she received, check out the silver grasshopper nestling on her neck...

The wedding at Westin KL

Sunday night at Westin KL....beautiful wedding, beautiful couple, in a sea of more beautiful guests in some impressive array of gowns, chiffons, lacey things...
I sang at that special event for the special people that evening, Vei Kwok and Joanne.


My get-up...
the look - 50s red carpet
dress - Zara
hair - Sam Chau @ A Cut Above BSC
I like fish tail dress, or is it mermaid tail?as usual, I adore Sam's work on my hair...though it's quite a bitch to wash it out later but look at the crazy height of it :)
Mrs Phoon, the proud and stylish mother of the bridegroom
check out her gorgeous beaded -lace gown...
Like mother like daughter, YC the daughter (she was the crazy chick who organised the beautiful wedding, she designed it too) is a stylish woman, and guess what, she makes jewelery! Yes! The earrings she got on - she made them herself!
I like how the tail of the dress trails behind her and the bold combination of black on pale blue

Monday, August 27, 2007

The bohemian and the rose

Aug 25, at Delicious (1 Utama), actress Juliana Ibrahim walked in with that stunning glitter in her eyes...and dress and that rose.

I like how she wore the rose, haven't seen one like that for a while. With her was Zainal Baki.

Earlier that at the 1 Utama Merdeka Community Fun Fair, Lilian and I `posed candid' for Nell Ng. Lilian, the stylish bohemian

Lilian laughs

Way earlier, Nell Ng goofed around with some merchendize at my 2nd-hand fashion booth at the fair. She was holding (besides something that belong to her) two crochet tiny table mats made by Mama, my man's granny.

The piano bar situation

Wednesday night of July 18th at Attic, happening piano bar around town...where people knows your name :)

and of course, everyone loves my green bag...

where I go, who I see....

Dinner with Seeming that evening after one of my rare auditions...no, of course I didn't audition in those sneakers. My debut show-off of this new dress I got from Scoop (label - Forever 21).
I love the details of the dress material
was feeling creative that day on the way to my rehearsal...the sweat pants I wore (some stores from Singapore) were on the loose side if I wore them low on my waist so I tried this look, hiked them up all the way to make like an empire cut, with my most versatile belt of the moment.


Impulsive shopping before goin to a show, didn't get those heels though they were absoooolutely gorgoeus!!! Go to MOOie (3-1, Jalan Telawi, Bangsar Baru) and get those, they only have less than 20 pairs! I got myself a silky GREY (totally refreshing from seas of black dresses I have) halter dress, totally chic n unpredictable, will show picture soon.
Sorry, you can't see the whole heel from this angle...so just go n have a browse!

The look of a singer

Show - Go Genting Super Savers Dinner, April 17, 2007.

The great blue blouse

SeeMing gave me this great MNG blue blouse from her wardrobe about a month back and I haven't worn until today...it's the perfect happy blue! Silk skirt from Second Charm .

Blue from day time...
to night time! The evening combo was one with Sandra's skirt, out to watch a play.
This is such an attitude piece...LOVE LOVE LOVE the skirt!!

Those shoes at the Attic

Pek Im & David Lim, cast members. I like Pek Im's thoughtfulness of the velvet hat with her animal print handbag with her sexy lycra pants...
David Lim
Love the black nail polish on him, very fetching!
Nicole Thomas, actress and pet rescuer. You can always count on Nicole to show you how to wear funky combo like Chinese kungfu pants with masculine jacket.
Hazlin, actress and lecturer, love that jacket from Scottland
My Iranian necklace created a small burst of excitement among my new found friends, students from Isfahan, Iran!
The look of art...Toni Kasim, Shanon Shah, Sonia Rhawnda & Zedeck Siew. I adore Zedeck's skinny jeans situation, he got this amazing baggy `backside' jeans going...of course you don't see it, also, he tends to slouch when told to stand properly!
