Below: This week I decided not to take my dressing room pic at Zara... need to upgrade... So Lanvin Hilton Hotel, here I come! Love spacious dressing room and large mirrors. I spotted a nice shirt which I am highly likely to get tommorrow:-P
Below: Before I head home, I went to Zara and look what I found this week! Red tailored shorts... tried them on and it fit great for my slim build cos' they are for womens. Hence, the cut is so much slimmer, with the leg openings smaller. Mens shorts can sometimes make you look like you are hiding 2 chickens in your pants. You cannot visibly tell these are for womens as the design is derivative from men's. The rise (waist to the crotch area) however is short, so you have to wear it lower:-) which I preferred. (SGD $49.90 if anyone's interested. And comes in 4 colours!)
My Céline Debut And This Week's Zara 'Cool Find'...
I finally got a chance to use my Céline Leather Cabas. Sometimes when we buy bags, we are attracted to the design and do not think about the functionality or user-friendliness of the bag. So I have at times bought what I call a 'dud'. Something that looks pretty but it's a pain to use. In the end, off to the lost and forgotten pile and never see the daylight again.
But I am happy to report I have immense joy using the Céline Leather Cabas I just bought. The size is just right, the weight not straining on your hands. And the best part, the inner zip pocket is position at just the right height that makes retrieving small items such as mobile phones and ipod so easy:-P The position of the pocket is also perfect that I can even put in my ipod and still get enough length of the earphones when carrying it by hand.
I am happy with my purchase and I am definitely getting aplenty of these in the near future!

Is this a Zara shirt too, right?
ReplyDeleteohhh i LOVE your shirt!!! cute design...where is it from??
ReplyDeletei love your outfit at Lanvin's fitting room so much, especially your bottom and shoes. it goes well along with your bag. very good matching.
ReplyDeleteanother win for Celine!!! btw, i didn't notice the shorts are for women until you said it was. it looked good on ya!
ReplyDeletei hope your pandora wasn't a dud.
Hey ... I recently found your site and I think its great.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering which belt your wearing with the red shorts!!
Please post to let me know.
Greetings from Amsterdam
Tedore and Anony... that is not a Zara shirt. It's from D&G. Perfect fit, very slim fitted. Love the trimmings.:-) Glad you like it.
ReplyDeleteAnd Anony2, my belt is from HE by Mango. Simple belt.. Faux python skin.
very cheap but nice!
Nico, Pandora is a join to use too, becos it has a good exterior pocket. And with 3 ways to carry, it is very versatile.:-)
Oh, my shirt looks a bit rumpled as it is nearing end of the day. Hahaha...
ReplyDeleteHey Kevin, I was at Kino yesterday browsing magazines, and I saw someone taking the celine bag, and immediately I thought it could be you! hahaha and I was right! Wanted to say hi and tell you that your blog is my daily must read.... but I didn't la, scared la.
ReplyDeleteAnyway keep up the good job with your blog, always a pleasure to read it :)
Eugene
Hi Eugene,
ReplyDeleteYeah, I was at Kinokuniya looking for a book. Next time say hi:-)
But I am no 'celebrity', hahaha...no need to feel shy.
Kevin
Zara has the same shirt ;)in four colours
ReplyDeletelove the softness of Celine Cabas... i wish i am rich till that extend tat i can use it as pillow case.
ReplyDeletegreat that you have got that bag. it will be more functionable if the handle is slightly longer for carrying on the shoulder.
=)
Well Zara's the king of replcating looks:-) Zara's cut for shirts however is never comparable to D&G. For slim fitted shirt, they have the most flattering cut. Zara shirts are usually too short for taller guys to tuck in properly and sleeves are also wider.:-)
ReplyDeleteBut it's definitely affordable for trend pieces.
Hi there Kevin,
ReplyDeleteI knew your beautiful Celine cabas bag has fully lined, Did you know the colourful Celine cabas they are fully lined (with a small pocket with zip)as well??
Many thanks
Tom
Hi Tom, the rest of the colourful cabas is unlined.
ReplyDelete:-)
