Do you ever shop by tone? You buy a first item in a particular tone/vibe, then wind up with a complimentary piece shortly after?This week, I've succumbed to a love affair with Oak brown - that 'just gets better with use' rustic, lived-in, I-want-a-Mulberry Bayswater hue. Doesn't everything in this tone already feel like you've owned it forever? Isn't that an amazing feeling? I so adore this colour.
Naturally, everything this National Day weekend has been a tonal homage: My A.P.C. wedges, vintage Dooney & Bourke spectator bag from Granny's Day Out and a personalized wallet from Maxx & Unicorn that I'd gifted to the Man earlier in the year. The D&B was only SGD37.50 after the discount and might just go down in my closet history as Best Vintage Buy (Ever). In fact, I could do an entire hyperbolic post on the bag but the pictures probably say it all..
The A.P.C. Spring/Summer sale is still on with 30-50% off at its Raffles Hotel Arcade store and Granny's serving up a rare store-wide 50% over at Peninsula Shopping Centre. If that sounds like a perfect lunchtime of shopping in the City Hall area, it's very much meant to :)
wow, congrats on scoring that D&B. i tried to own something by them but the one they had at GDO for sometime was just too heavy. i'm really trying not to visit the shop for the replenished stock this entire month, lol.
