foodtrucks and colourpops

H&M top; Zara shorts; Jeffery Campbell platforms; NARS 'Schiap' Lipstick

FINALLY, the chance for a much highly-needed Sunday sleep-in, and some time and brain space to sip my green tea & honey, and blog, in peace.

The idea of a food truck has always appealed to me. No - not to start up a mobile cafe - no, but given a choice between a sit-down cafe and a portable food stall that has pulled up street side, offering choices as varied as pulled pork tacos and frozen yogurt, I'd choose the latter. So logically, I tracked down the owner of one and asked if we could loan it for some outfit photos.

I kid. We stumbled upon one in someone's front garden and I was about as thrilled as if they were actually offering delicious artisan gelato - Dulce de luche and pandan coconut, please. Here is yet another piece from my overflowing floral print collection - though mainly, I've noticed, on bottoms. For some (strange) reason, tops don't have the same appeal to me whilst browsing the endless racks of clothes online, resulting in a highly unbalanced, bottom-heavy wardrobe.

I scored these summer-worthy shorts on sale months ago in London! I really do enjoy the little mid/high-waisted shorts Zara does quite so frequently. This yellow top was a bargain purchase too over there, when surprise surprise, I realised that I didn't have enough tops in my small luggage to sustain my stay! Opted for a hot pink lip too to go with the colour pop :)

Lots more to come after exams and recitals and such. There might be a 'One piece, three ways' feature soon, or perhaps a giveaway in lieu of my birthday, even? I'd love to hear what you lovely people would like to see on this space!
