4 day update

opps sorry havent really been keeping up with blogging
here's a quick 4 day update!
and yes, its the weekend again

you know the Showtek anthem
with the line 'i live for the weekend,
i live for hardstyles baby,
come on, lets go!'
ya its like that
precisement
:)

Thursday

went for the Fashion Revealed parade
featuring Thrill, Strand and accessories by Emma Page

i didnt really like the show
for some reason, thrill designs were very.. 'asian hooker'
:x




but there were redeeming features

i love the colored eyelash extensions!

red red reddddddddd

and EP's exquisite clutches

and STRAND for men:



the whole thing was a bit blah unfortunately
and i missed the jack london fashion show,
because of some problems with 2threads
ah well

Friday

lunch pictures on Lygon: hit up Corretto's again
i love their eggy carbonara
and then El Dolce Freddo for gelati
and yes, its open again after a month hiatus!
totally drool worthy.

had durian and roche gelati in a cup
i know it sounds weird
but trust me
its THAT good




had dinner at traceys


and then went to Lucky Coq on Chapel St for Brendan's birthday

AND
I FORGOT MY IDENTIFICATION
SO WAS TURNED AWAY THE DOOR.

!!!!!!!!!
i know right
i cant believe they didnt think i looked 18
okay i m taking it as a compliment though

saw some old Lauriston friends even with this minor (!!) glitch
aww
i miss miss







awww, i love camwhoring with you all!

Saturday
Kevin's 21st
at Van Gogh





(p.s clare, this was one of the dresses i bought last week)

and finally SUNDAY
FATHER'S DAY
brought parents to Lemongrass for thai lunch
wow
that place has gone downhill.
apathetic curries
and bland tom yum

BUT the beef salad was amazing
no i m not using the word lightly
AMAZING

just wish Jasmine at Crown was still open
they recently shut down
which is sad as they had the best red duck curry

hrm. i m such a foodie-holic
oh dear.




mom being all camera shy


i m a daddy's girl!


and i love my mom's neckalce
I WANT IT
shhh
i am going to 'borrow' it
hehehe


okay totally random
but i think forbidden love is so romantic
i wish my parents had deadly enemies
with centuries old grudges still being borne
and they had a son i totally fell in love with.

or alternatively i had a hot cousin or family member
hehe
too creepy?

okay phoon too many movies

next 2 weekends are going to be the BOMB
i cant wait!

i feel like writing a haiku

it sits on my bed
rotund and grumpily grey
tempting me to hug

guess what it is!

heeh

lunching

what an expensive day
spent quite a bit of $$$ in only 2 hours. opps.
plus cause its party season
i m going to be as broke as flat water in a few days
diessssssssssssss
where did all my allowance go?!

went for yum cha lunch at dragonboat

viet, i think instead of doing the dance crew thing
we really should be 'lunch crew'
been eating out every day
becoming fattttttttt lahhhhhhhhhh
not cool


but seriously, you tell me, how to resist?



went shopping after
finally bought the things my heartzzz desired
okay not really, but bardot was having a sale!

that lime green Hussy dress (pics when it arrives from sydney!)
a massive totoro soft toy


KAWAII

i wish i had limitless amounts of $$ to blow
i saw an amazing pair of donna karan heels in myer
it had that whole sculpted wooden heel thing going on.
drool.

confession time: its really bad, i have had the urge to light a cigarette using money after watching the simpsons.
like, you know 'cash to burn', but literally?
its such a pointless and irresponsible thing to do
and such a waste!
might as well donate right?
maybe therein lies its fascination.


on a sidenote,
i really dont think my parents can tell me off for spending money
my mom just bought a new laptop
so now we have a mac, a dell, an acer, 3 toshibas in the house
for 3 people!
and she complains that i buy totoro.
like, unfair!

omg
i m damn ke lian.

i think i must be hormonal!
WOE IS ME LAH.
why am i talking about such indelicate topics

ANYWAY, this kenneth cole ad features a transexual model.
cool huh?

her face is so exotic.
i really think that when trannies manage to pull it off, they look very good indeed
maybe its the tall lean physique

oh lee
what is this general malaise coming over me
i m going crazy

29-31 aug 08

okay i guess i ll just blog till i have to head off to uni
hang on tight!
lol
its gonna be a long one
i can feel it!

my amazing weekend
how am i going to condense it into a few pictures!
WHY BLOGGER WHY DO YOU HAVE A 5 PICTURE LIMIT EACH TIME??

oh
actually i know why my weekend was so amazing
i didnt have uni on friday
so it was long
anyway!

went to andrea's birthday party sat night
was at some bar called 3 or something
off highlander lane
was great seeing people i hadnt seen in years!
till a certain guy spoilt it for me
ah well
what can you do

(i m going to turn lesbian. some boys i know seriously have to 'man' up)





then, went to Bubble
i seem to have become predictable
its not hard to guess where i am saturday nights anymore!
but we all went over to bri's place first
got to catch up with her parents and camwhore downstairs in the cold
which was fun
hadnt seen kat or hen in ages and ages
but it didnt feel like that at all

bubble is so addictive
clare!
see what you've started?
-_-


prime example of bad driving


candid!


went to brunswick st sunday arvo
went to little creatures, san churro and polly bar
and i cant believe i ve never checked out brunswick street properly before
it has heaps of good bars and shops
and its only 10 minutes out of the city
i took a few pics at polly
not too many in case daniel thought i was weird
but the place has a great atmosphere
very .. english manor with a dash of burlesque






and after that,
i went to the Redken 5th Av NYC Future Color show
at Sumac
great location!
now THIS is what i want to do with my life

fashion journalism i mean

pictures say it better than words, so enjoy!
(i did steal some of patrik's pictures
but what can i say?
he was the photographer!)

ok ok the blurry ones are mine :(







i look so shy! actually i was thinking: gee i hope they're not confusing me for someone else

LOL



my very first reserved seat on the front row right in front of the runway!
'AMANDA PHOON'
yeah!!!!! :D







Jo May who did an amazing job!theme was 'jewel infusions' so there was gems and baubles everywhere!


Nathan, who recieved first place


the winning design



Ruby rose
i almost asked her if her real name was ruby rose
cause if it was
did she have male relatives i could marry and therefore name our kids black and red?
i mean Black Rose and Red Rose
perfect!

but i didnt
i was too intimidated

but now i know the exact shade of her hair color
hehehe
so i can get to Salon M and get it done
:D

okay so that was my weekend
this week is Melbourne Spring Fashion Week
and i have a few events to get to
i m excited!



phoon: I WANT A BEAR SKIN RUG
you: (disapprovingly) what! how politically incorrect
phoon: BUT BUT i wanttttttttt
you: dont be so whiny. think of the bears. how inhumane
phoon: but
you: NO. you are a bad person for wanting a bear skin rug

so you think
till..... i show you what i mean


YES! its a gummy bear bear rug!

YaYa Chou is creative genius
i want to put it in my room
so whenever i feel greedy
i can eat my rug

omg i m so smart.


i love this dolce and gabbana ad


it has chickens
CHICKENS!
HAHAHA


okay
i m not going to uni
i m sleepy and delirous now

gregoria todaro

okay its now 4.30am
am seriously contemplating whether to go to uni tomorrow or not
i guess i will
cause i just ate a giant bag of corn chips and tim tams
which i found under the piano seat
(haha my mom should seriously find a new hidng place for her junk food)
and i really shouldnt sleep after eating

plus i dont want to prove sammy right
lol


had the most amazing weekend
more on that later

but first, see pics from the gregoria todaro couture show!
i miss spring races
my parents havent hosted a melbourne cup day party since i left high school
all my fascinators are gathering dust
:(
by hook or by crook
this year i m doing something for cup day
even if its just a bbq
-nods

plus i already know what i m going to wear.
what can i say?
i was too inspired by his show






i love the first headpiece
it kinda looks like someone took what the statue of liberty was holding
dyed it black
and stuck it in their hair
funky!

okay there are more pictures but i m not uploading all 60 of them.
i love millnery
why couldnt i be born in the 40s
then i could wear a hat everyday and not look silly.

i cant wait for our spring party kat
then i can wear a big hat

come on, give me a sunny weekend!
