The Only Item of Clothing I Purchased In Burma

It's gawdy, it's sparkly, it's stretchy (that's why it fits me), and it features my favourite star in the whole world - Mazza (aka Miss Marilyn Monroe).

I saw this shirt in a shop window in Burma (/Myanmar), and I knew straight away that I had to own it. I walked into the shop with determination... even if it didn't fit, i'd turn it into a head scarf or something. I mean, images of Marilyn in sepia tones, with glittery sparkles and "glass" buttons? TRASHTASTIC! Must own. And so it was.


This week I met up with the fabulous Jacqui of Fashion and Pho (AND Pho Sizzle Threads), to talk fashion and life and eat some delicious food. She's such a talented babe. One of the main reasons I started blogging was because I wanted to meet and collaborate with like-minded ladies, and... it's happening! I'm getting my wish! Eeeee!

Skirt: Kmart Earrings: were my Nan's <3

I would really like to invest in some gold leggings/tights to go with my newly painted gold Docs. But in the meantime, i've settled for layering my yellow & black striped thigh highs with any type of non-solid black tights. Similar effect, 0% of the cost.

Jacqui and I had lunch at Hell's Kitchen, and then found this awesomely rad skull painted in the alley. I think it goes perfectly with my outfit, since Marilyn's corpse is all bones now... :P

Thanks to Jacqueline for taking the photos and being an inspiring babe!
