Hello, Velvet Vest!

ChinnyPea says:

"The same one that you wore back in November?



I can't tell because you're so good at giving things a different look each time you wear them. A flip of the collar here and a twist of the neckline there and it's like you're wearing something new.



Anyway, ChinnyEm and I are such diehard fangirls! We texted each other when you came on this evening to squeal over the stripes and velvet combo. Woo!"

"Gargh! VELVET!!!!! So soft! So touchable!
I'm completely in LOVE with velvet right now- this outfit couldn't have been better! Did you see Alexander Wang's Fall 2010 collection? Featured quite a lot of lovely velvet and corporate stripes. Like last time, the velvet looks better on TV than on screenshots. Pooey."

  1. I have to be honest...I have a bit of a velvet phobia - the texture freaks me out. I remember loving it like everyone else when I was younger, but these days just the thought of running my hand over a strip of velvet makes me cringe and gag (and it's the same with peach skin, weirdly enough).
    Well that's my weird two cents. Haha.

    p.s. yes there is a bit of a resemblance between Brigitte and Lara, isn't there? Despite this, they decided to use Laetita Casta as Brigitte in the movie 'Gainsbourg'. Though I suppose Casta is actually french, which helps lol.

  2. Romany- Hello Romany. I agree about peach fuzz. That never fails to give me the shivers. I used to feel the same way about velvet actually, but I touched some amazing quality velvet the other day and I didn't get the shivers at all. And I'm sure Lee Lin's vest is of the highest utmost quality which= very very very stroke-able!
