Happiness is expensive

Holla guys and welcome to a new entry to my blog: Abstract Apparel. You might be wondering why none of the looks that are featured here by the models or even by myself are explained by me to be abstract. Abstract to me is a style that one must pick. Even throughout the whole blogposts here, it is up to you to pick your own style.

Everyone has their own feature that they look best in. That explains my recent fury with denim jackets. I think they fit me wonderfully. Bear with me as I touch on my last post for denim jackets, and today you will see an overall review on these jackets.

The picture above explains the point that I will be going through today. Mixing and matching of colours. The extremely light denim wash goes well with a plain black tee while as you can see from my previous two posts my dark vintage denim jacket goes good with a plain white tee. Either way, I think it pulls off remarkably and you can simply, match any colour with denims and it would not even go wrong.

Even a denim collared shirt inside goes with a denim jacket, and trust me, it is the trend. Personally I like contrast amongst my outfit and not more than two colours or two shades of colours. 

Today’s post shows me finally wearing the Pull and Bear shirt that my mom bought for me from Hong Kong. She managed to get it at a super cheap price because apparently, Pull and Bear is a bit cheaper over there. It was a surprise gift from my mom which made me extra happy to wear it. It also goes nicely with some chino jeans that i got from Levis and my shoes that i got from ASOS. To top it all off, i used my “Sorry I’m Fresh” cap.

For today’s post i am going to talk about something very important…… AFROS!!!

To me afros just make almost anyone looking super “badass”, its just really unbelievable. There is just no scientific explanation for such badassary. They need to make a theory or something for this crazy phenomenon. I JUST DO NOT GET WHY I DONT SEE MORE PEOPLE WITH AFROS. Personally i think i will look crazy with an afro but i think that is probably just because i don’t have the guts to do it. Everytime i see someone with an afro i can only say four words, “that dude is AWESOME”. I mean those who can pull off an afro DO IT. DON’T HESITATE if you can pull of an afro grow your hair long go to a saloon AND GET IT!! I don’t even know why that style died out. It is still incredibly cool and awesome. I would love to get one if only i had enough courage to do so. It almost makes what you wear negligible because you will look awesome no matter what. 

For our final post, we have the long awaited checkered button shirts. I don’t usual wear these type of shirts but that doesn’t mean that they are out of fashion. I find these type of shirt typically hard to match just because normally on the shirt itself it has two main colours which makes it difficult to match with the bottom that you have. Some checkered shirts even have three main colours, which make it all the more difficult. 

For me, in the end i feel that when i wear checkered shirts, you really just got to think out of the box because you never know if it will match or not. I never thought of wearing this shirt with these pair of shorts. You just got to try it on and only then will you find out. 

For today’s post I am going to be talking about….. you guessed it, Johnny Depp. Famous for making many girls and women go crazy over him, but what exactly makes him so hot?

Well for me, it is his special moustache. Many people think that fashion is about just what they wear but facial hair is very important as well. Many men have a certain type of facial hair that suit their face very nicely and some even look better just without any facial hair at all. Facial hair can add a very “sexy” flavour to your fashion style that will surely make people go “woah”. Personally i definitely look better without any facial hair for now, but who knows in the future how i will look like. 

I caught Catching Fire recently, and it was amazing. I read the books before the movies came out, so I had a certain expectation. When the first film came out, I felt the book was better (as it so often is). There was just more detail and depth of character.

Love ponies and horses? Then Rider’s Cafe is one place you shouldn’t give a miss! 

Be welcomed by horses riding around, off Bukit Timah road, away from all the hustle & bustle of the city life. Situated in an old colonial styled building, this cafe runs on no air conditioning. However, the smell of fresh air would take your minds of all that’s been bothering you, what’s more it’s really windy here! 

The food and drinks here would probably be the highlight cause it got me ordering more than twice! From poached eggs, smoked bacon, and burgers everything here’s definitely pleasing to the eyes and a feast for the stomachs as well! Costing from about SGD $12-20 for the mains, it’s definitely worth the price! 

Not forgetting their delicious dessert varieties, never too early for cakes and sweet treats isn’t it! 

Holidays coming up in less than a week? This is one place you would definitely want to spend with family and friends, but be sure to call in to make reservations for peak hours! 

My pick: Rider’s Burger & Death by Chocolate cake.

With a nursery feel and cheerful decor, this bright and kiddy place brings you back to the days when you were 5! Not that its only for young kids, its feel and ambience makes you feel young. & If that’s what you need, then give this place a visit. Located at Tangoing Katong, its along the same lane as the famous Punggol Nasi Lemak. 

Costing only SGD $12 their chicken leg is a personal favourite! Huge and bigger than we expected it to be definitely. Another personal favourite would be the chicken-cordean bleu. Breaded Chicken fillet with melted cheese and Ham? YUM! 

Dare yourselves to try their escargots priced at SGD $16.90 for 12 pieces. C’mon you’ve got to give these a try once in your life a least! They’re not as bad as you think, really! 

To make any bad day brighter, we’d all indulge in food, but here, the desserts are set to smiling for days! Try their rich and moist chocolate soufflé.

Tell me if you love it, or there’s something else I should try when I go back again! Yes, GOING BACK THERE FOR SURE. 

Make your lives complete with a visit to this cutesy cafe worth every dollar! 

For today’s post it is yet again another one of my idols from the band All Time Low. His name is Jack Barakat and he is AWESOME. He is primarily known as the “Joker” of the band. He has a very fun and outgoing personality and never stops making me laugh no matter what he does. 

This very personality is shown in the things that he wears and of course his line of clothing in Glamour Kills. His line of clothing is called JAGK and typically the clothes found inside are normal printed t-shirts. What is special about his line of clothing is that they are all sort of like “jokes”. His famous shirt has the word “BONER” written on it as seen in the picture.
