Two Girls Love | Lisa Eldridge on YouTube
We’re late to the party, and have just discovered makeup guru Lisa Eldridge‘s wealth of makeup tutorials on YouTube. If you’re at all interested in makeup or English accents, this channel will be just like catnip to a tabby. Step by step tutorials, guides to skincare, buying foundation – so much information, my little brain...
H&M x Maison Martin Margiela | Looks we’d love to see
Allow me to present three related points: 1. H&M has announced a collaboration with famed avant-garde design house Maison Martin Margiela. 2. H&M will be opening a flagship store right here in Kuala Lumpur late September this year. 3. We’ve received news from on high that the collection will indeed be dropping here in Malaysia....
Interview | Jacqueline Chan of Whimsy Milieu
Forget arm candy – finger swag is where it’s at. Or so we’re now convinced, after having spoken to Australian-based designer Jacqueline Chan and lusted after her adorable new range of rings. Jacqueline’s label is called Whimsy Milieu and we put her on the spot (not really, we’re lovely people) about rings, accessories and Lady...
Trend report | Put your backpack into it
Backpacks are a pet peeve of mine – if you take the train you’ll know how irritating it is to be thwacked by a backpack possessed of an office-bound man who thinks if you don’t see it, it doesn’t exist. Peeps, they’re still there and damnit they hurt when swung round into your ribs or...
Five fashion Instagrammers to follow
How many idle hours are wasted away on Instagram? Which clever person was it who realised that all people really want to do is spend their time looking at faux-vintage, pretty photos? Hats off to that man. If you’re keen on fashion, it doesn’t get better than Instagram (Twitter please, sit down). Firsthand looks into...

The Opulent Hippo has it all, which is why we got in touch with its owner Sammy Pong. We were dying to find out more about the vintage costume jewellery that she vends online via Etsy and...
Vincent Bousserez for Louis Vuitton
We do love ourselves a bit of LV, especially if it comes with a side of parody and a knowing wink. The brand commissioned photographer Vincent Bousserez to shoot a series of his famed miniatures, revolving around the LV tenets – luxury and monograms. The result is a witty take on Louis Vuitton and its...
Two Girls love | this is not a mall
I can’t claim credit for today’s find, because I discovered this is not a mall through that one-woman portal to fashion fabulosity, Susie Bubble. It’s an insanely eclectic collection of handmade items from the hilltribes of Northern Thailand, tie-dyed t-shirts, tiaras, sunglasses and jewellery. The items in question are cut out and super imposed on...
A Banksy to call your own
God bless the Queen! Thanks to her ongoing Diamond Jubilee celebrations, the creatives of Britain have been flushing out freebies for us common folk from the old empire. No complaints at all. We previously wrote about asos‘ free crown printouts featuring designs by Preen, House of Holland, Julie Verhoeven, and Danielle Scut, and now – and...
