The Light At The End Of The Tunnel

ChinnyEm says:
"AHHHH HELLO FRIKKIN BEAUTIFUL BLUE. YES I SEE YOU. RELIEF FROM LAST WEEK'S BLACK AND WHITE AND BROWN AND SUCH HAS COME!"

ChinnyPea says:
"Phew! What a welcoming sight! That blue peeking out from under the black!
Studied the grey panels on the blouse for the duration of the newscast but couldn't make out what they are. Could you please show them off next time without a jacket?"

Don't Wait Up

ChinnyEm says:
"Is this week back-to-basics week? The black vest is another old fave of yours. ChinnyPea won't be too happy. But then again, you dress to please yourself and that's why we fell in love with you in the first place, right?"
ChinnyPea says:
"Oh, ChinnyEm knows me so well! I guess we all have days when we don't feel like experimenting...just want to wear things that we've worn a thousand times because we know that they've worked before and will work over and over again. Comfortable feel-good pieces that we can put on without thinking. Still, we thrive on the excitement that your clothes bring us each weekend so please don't get too comfortable. Haha!"

Lapel Of Honour

ChinnyEm says:
"Back to this reliable jacket and shirt combo hey? You know I love the whole structure of this jacket. But there are only so many times I can say that..."

ChinnyPea says:
"I have to 'parrot' ChinnyEm's words. Yes, we loved it the first time and still loving it but us demanding fangirls want to see new and exciting things!"

Directional Pussy=Bow

ChinnyPea says:
"Love how the bow looks permanently windswept in that one direction! Same blouse as the one here?

Not going to go on about you wearing black AGAIN! We'd like to see more colours, please?"

ChinnyEm says: "Well at least when you do black you usually do it with an awesome blouse... but yes, you know we like colours. Not necessarily a rainbow cake like UNIQLO but...actually, YES, I'd like to see you as a rainbow cake."

Another Flippety-Flip!

ChinnyPea says:
"Oh, Lee Lin, you clever cunning fox!

This is our favourite grey jacket (and here and here and here too) that you're wearing! INSIDE-OUT! WOO! Was wondering when you're going to that with it. Tee hee hee.

Lesson learnt from you: Invest in a well-constructed jacket...so good the insides are that we want to show it off.

Pity I can't read the name on the label from this screengrab."

ChinnyEm says: "...Brilliant. So brilliant. SO DAMN BRILLIANT. AHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

A Little Extra...












































ChinnyPea says:
"Dear Lee Lin fans,

I don't know if you watched the highly hilarious Santo, Sam and Ed's Cup Fever (another SBS production)over the weeks that the World Cup was on but our darlin' Lee Lin made a little appearance on it on the last episode. You can watch it here - her bit is in the second half of the show.

I love how, because it's kind of like a sports programme, that she wore a zipped-up hoodie. But of course not just any trackie top! It's Lee Lin and it had to be black AND shiny!"

Winter Berry

ChinnyEm says: "Hello again Mrs Ribena! This outfit has made quite a number of appearances already but you know purple always goes down well with us. Especially ChinnyPea who loves it when you pull out purple velvet things. Although this involves no velvet, there's a lot of purple involved which of course earns you an A+ (when do you not get an A+ though?).Grape, Ribena, Cadbury...lovely old Willy Wonka; it's all good."

ChinnyPea says:
"AH! Your wardrobe mistress has been hard at work again!
This time, it looks like he/she has totally ripped open that lapel! A little de-constructionism at work? Tee hee hee."

It's a bird...it's a plane...no it's just the best shirt in the world

ChinnyEm says:
"Oh my goodness. Your shirt is amazing and I have no idea what material it is. Multicoloured velvet? Satin? Cellophane? FOIL?! Just kidding. It looks like a cheesy Hawaiian shirt that's been dipped in liquid milky opals. Whatever it is, I'm cursing myself for not catching you on the telly to take a closer look. Eeeeeh! eeeee! That's me squealing because your shirt and jacket are just so perfect this evening."

ChinnyPea says:
"I saw you "live" from the newsdesk this evening and I did squeal! And squealed enough to make up for ChinnyEm's absence from the front of her TV set.
It's that shirt! WOOOO! It would look dated disco-like on someone else but you? Never! Looking forward to seeing more funky fabric on you!"

Cadbury Chocolate

ChinnyPea says:
"Every time you wear this velvety vest, I think of the paper that Cadbury chocolates come in. Wouldn't it be grand if they wrapped their chocolates with a flocked purple wrapper? You know, like give the consumer, via the sense of touch, an idea of the smooth and luscious velvety treat that awaits him/her within the package? Maybe not every bar but a limited edition kind of thing.

Anyway, genius combo of heavy velvet vest + light and sheer blouse today! Having fun playing with textures again, are you? Tee hee hee. You're a bar of Cadbury Dark Chocolate that I'm sure all your fans would love to have a chunk of!"

ChinnyEm says: "Loving the innuendo there ChinnyPea. :)
Purple velvet is always so luxurious and I love how you've paired it with the lightness of the sheer blouse. Silky, rich and decadent just like chocolate. Oh you, always excelling at combining the right textures."

Gone Dotty For Dots!

ChinnyPea says:
"Whoopeedeedoodoodoo! Woo! The dots are back after two weeks...BIGGER! (literally)...and BETTER!

On someone else, this top with its sombre tones will simply frump them out big time and take them into serious nanna territory. But on you, you that can do no wrong in the sartorial department, it makes you look like a schoolgirl in a cute smock dress! More dots, I say!".

ChinnyEm says: I will cherish the day when you do red and white dots...to match our header! Hahahaha. I can dream right? I know what ChinnyPea means about the nana territory- this print could be a retro shower curtain but you are just too too cute in it!"
