Jjang!


Skull and Heart 3-finger knuckle duster ring: ASOS.com
Once Upon a Time necklace: Dorothy Perkins
Peep-toe wedge boots: New Look
Owl necklace: eBay
Jjang t-shirt: Hometoomuch.com

If you're wondering what the Korean character on my t-shirt means, well wonder no more as according to the website, "Jjang" means "Awesome". How awesome is that! 

I was in a society meeting once and we were playing an Ice Breaker game where we had to say/act out what we'd normally say/do when we are very happy/pleased about something. Some people were going, "Lalalalala", "Memememe", "YES!", "Yay!" et cetera and without thinking too much, the word that sprouted out of my mouth was...yeap, you got it, "Awesome!" Haha...I don't actually even say it that much.
What do you say when you're extremely pleased?


Here's a clearer picture of my knuckle duster. It's my very first 3-finger ring and I'm absolutely in love with it! It's currently one of my favourites.

Yes, indeed it is inspired by the Alexander McQueen knuckle duster skull ring. When I first saw it circulating around the web (on a clutch, at first), I couldn't believe how gorgeous it was. Alas, I'm in no financial position to buy the original and so I had to settle for this ASOS one. Still, I think the ASOS version is really pretty and much more girlier with the diamante heart and flowers.

 
Honestly, this outfit is all my current favourite items rolled into one. I have been wanting this pair of boots since last year, but then I hesitated, then it sold out online, came back in stock, I hesitated, then it sold out online, came back in stock, I hesitated...rinse and repeat. Finally, a 20% special V-day discount for students did it for me.

    really love the top and the jewellery you're wearing, I really want to find a top like that now! you have inspired me :)

    I totally do that when buying things, I hate making decisions and end up not buying the item. usually I regret it when I go back and it's not there any more, but when it is it's fate!

    Michelle: Thanks for leaving a comment

    Rebecca: Thanks! Yeah, I'm also on the lookout for one that has the Chinese character for "Love".

    I know that feeling! Then I kick myself for not getting it when I first saw it. But you're right; if it's meant to be mine, it'll be there :)
