My World: My Little Obsession

Collecting Perfumes

What's New in My Closet: Tommy HIlfiger Shades

I guess this sunglasses is my 1st piece of Tommy Hilfiger collection in my closet. Yes, although it Tommy's last  collection (If I not mistaken Tommy Hilfiger SS 2011 Collection) I still love the design. Sleek and Timeless. That is most important it can match all your wardrobe in many way. Don't chase the trend but create your own signature of style.

Ku, Budak Baru Belajar: Sahabat Di Hatiku

Hatiku menjadi riang apabila mendengar sahabat baikku Ley akan pulang ke rumahnya sebelum tiba Good Friday. Kami sudah menjadi kawan baik sejak dari tingkatan satu sehingga sekarang. "A good friend in sad or good times is hard to find, but when we found one; do take care that beautiful friendship forever." Ungkapan tersebut sampai ke hari ini saya pegang. Ya. Adakalanya, kita akan misunderstood atau terdapat perbezaan pendapat sehingga ada di antara kita tidak bertegur-sapa. Honestly, Saya lah jadi tukang pujuk sebab saya ini mudah sangat tersentuh dan cepat kasihan. Saya akan cepat-cepat minta maaf. Some of my friends didn't know I love them so much sebab kawan-kawan lah tempat saya bergembira mahupun meluahkan masalah dan menangis. Kalau hendak dihitung dengan jari jemari ini saya rasa cuma ada beberapa orang sahaja menjadi teman rapat saya. Ley is one of my bestbuddy and love fashion like I do too.

One evening, while I taking a short rest after back from work..there was I sitting down. Tak semana-mananya, terkenang saya dan Stanley dengan stail sepanjang zaman remaja kami berdua. Semua style dah dicuba oleh kami, nasib baik personaliti tak tenggelam. Sebenarnya, kami berdua dressing up quite geeky-nerd look ketika masuk ke tingkatan 1. Nak kata Ley teruk; Saya lah lagi teruk! Rambut saya belah ke tepi with that milky hair wax, pakaian kemas siap bertali pinggangkan aras perut dan bag pack sebesar alam. Alahhaiii.. zaman mengenali stail dan kenali dunia remaja. Well, stail rambut belah tepi kini kembali di pentas peragaan untuk koleksi lelaki. Honestly, I miss that hairdo tapi sangat tak berani nak gayakan seperti dahulu. Zaman hit 50 cent, Usher, Ashanti, P.Diddy apa lagi J.Lo anda masih ingat? Aduihaii, dalam masa era kegilaan ramai hiphop or the BB group (Bad Boy style) pun kami ada cuba. Sekarang, saya tak suka seluar hipster; dalam kamus stail saya it's a big no no no. Aiiii belum lagi stail rock ala-ala Linkin Park atau Limp Bizkit. Mak oi! Siap serba hitam siap kuku dicat hitam. Hurmmm..kenangan oh kenangan. Tersenyum lebar saya buat seketika.

Sejak kebelakangan ini, saya sangat suka share gambar-gambar pada wall FB saya tentang beg, kasut mahupun barangan kemas. While I checking Burberry collection there was one bag caught my attention. Simply beautiful. Saya patut tagkan nama Ley dengan gambar beg ini bisik hatiku. Yes, Stanley respond. Tetiba, Sling bag berjenama disamakan dengan beg sandik kepit masa kami dulu. Terketawa saya dibuatnya. Orang pakai Adidas, Nike & Body Glove kami cuma mampu melihat daripada jauh. Harganya cukup mahal bagi seorang pelajar seperti kami. Kata Ley, kalau sekarang kita boleh beli barangan jenama itu tapi langsung dah tak minat pun. Mature guy always pick elegant style macam Burberry atau Armani? Cehwaaa, kawan saya bukan main lagi. I feel glad to hear that statement from a simple guy who're adore with fashion. Berbalas komen, end-up kami set masa untuk keluar outing.

It is a lovely Easter evening. Setiap pintu butik kami kunjungi hinggakan berjam-jam di kaunter minyak wangi MetroJaya. Sememangnya seronok window shopping bersama kawan. Rasa letih muncul. Sahabatku Ley memilih tempat untuk bercerita panjang di Le Safran, Suria Sabah. Sebuah cafe yang bercirikan masakan french. A simple place with elegant taste. I'm impressed with the serving and nice view. Saya tidak sangka begitu indah pemandangan senja sekitar KK City..uhmm kilauan air laut sekelilingnya. Sememangnya indah. Tenang rasa hatiku lari sebentar daripada stress tugasan harian. Ketenangan ini yang amat saya rindui. Thank you so much my dear friend. Saya luangkan sedikit lebih masa bercerita dan bertanyakan khabar kawanku Ley hinggalah luahan isi hati. This is the thing I miss alot and be around with my friends. Sedihnya, setiap mereka mempunyai kehidupan masing-masing dan ada sesetengah mereka telah berhijrah ke luar negara. We didn't have the right time to meet and chit-chat biarpun buat beberapa minit. Saat sebegini membuatkan saya rasa I'm getting older, sunyi dan nak toleh ke belakang terlalu banyak suka duka telah saya lalui. Oleh sebab itu, Saya sangat menghargai erti sebuah persahabatan.

Adakalanya, saya agak terkilan cara persahabatan dunia sekarang seperti melalui Facebook mahupun Twitter. Yes, It is a good medium to know new people with different interests. Namun, bukannya semua ikhlas dan jujur. Syukur, saya lebih mempercayai persahabatan more in reality life daripada dunia internet. Ia disebabkan kita boleh berinteraksi secara lebih tulus dan menilai apa yang kita alami dan lihat. Topik ini juga timbul ketika bercerita dengan Ley. He agreed with me. Both of us still embrace the old way with the old minds. Tak perlu FB Wall War or Tweet War, face to face dan berbincang. Anda mungkin terkejut dengan keputusannya setelah berbincang secara damai. Dunia begitu indah sekiranya kita menyayangi antara satu sama lain. "Life is simple; If you want to be happy" kata Ley. Jarum jam menunjukkan hampir jam 8 pm, tidak sedar masa beredar begitu pantas. Saat akhir sebelum pulang si kawan hint pada saya "Marina Bay Sands dan Universal Studio macam interesting" katanya. Saya tersenyum dan menjawab, "Ya. Memang lah. Jangan lupa ole-ole ya." Both of us laugh out loud. Selamat bercuti sahabatku.

MYR1,100 X 12 Months X 3 Years = One Dream Bag!

L.Vuitton famous with his Monogram bags, Gucci with her iconic Bamboo bag while Chanel forever young with her elegant chain bags. How about Hermes? I will call this brand a Royal bag. Yes, the majestic shapes and amazing high quality material from (Grade A1) lizard skin until to bloody stand out crocodile skin. If you want diamonds, why not? The more rich the more prefect it will shine. Kelly Pochette, Lydia, Lindy to The amazing Birkin. Hermes, produce a famous and own trademark. Birkin bag, Every fashionista and fashionisto dying to own this bag. It is a must!

I still remember the first time I saw this beautiful classic bag when Victoria Beckham looking super chic in each the tabloid magazine holding this bag. It was a Hermes, Birkin. The most expensive-hand made-long waiting list handbag in the world (according to the magazine). Heaven God! I must have this bag, the moment I saw it. Quite funny until now I still keeping little of cash for this bag since I aged 15-16 years old. Simply stupid of me, I suppose to get myself a beautiful LV men bag or maybe Gucci shoes rather than ikat perut sampai tak dapat-dapat. Even crazy-good friend of mine joke to me. "One day, I will give you a fake Birkin for your birthday present and it is a must to bring around proudly" said he. I laugh all the way but feel little bit awkward and scared with that stupid statement.

Well, Birkin! One day, you will be with me and I will hold you with confident. It is a big wish to experience the atmosphere and watch more closer the real process by Hermes's Craftsmen. Umm..I love HERMES! Birkin in Black Leather with Gold. Simply powerful and modern chic in classy way. One big dream wish! Finger-crossed.

Satchel Bag - Classic Touch Always WIN!

Here again, I talking about bags. The satchel bag, well-known around the 60's and most of the designs show the UK fashionably chic style. Recently, I'm thinking to splurge myself by end of the year or mid this year. I did list down my wish list but end-up, yeah! what the hell. I'm not rich boy and my salary NOT even reached 2-5K. So, come on! be serious and see the reality. Yes to Hermes, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Prada, Gucci, Salvatore Ferragamo and the list go on. When thinking it back, It is NO for me. I such an idiot to cutting down here and there just to own an amazing bag. Positive thinking, I'm move-on and be a normal fashionable kid. I prefer using affordable things but still look ulta-expensive chic. I still grateful what I have now. I still loving my simple life and be free..more relax. Thank you God.

Then, one day I saw a nice unique bag at vogue.uk website (If I not mistaken). The minute I saw it. Damn! I'm falling in love with this design. I want it so badly! It's a must in my unpretty closet! Ohhhh God, It really suit my style. VINTAGE meets MODERN. I love the shape, the new NEON colours and most important..the material. The high quality material play important role especially to produce any amazing bag. Most satchel bag using high quality leathers in each their designs. I still remember my grandma own the same style even my lovely mum. I did share information to my mum about it, my mum laughed. "See, fashion is recycling and my dear son..you should keep in eye about it ya". True, I agreed with my mum. Fashion is same like learning history, keep on repeating the same thing but different way of presenting.

Umm..In God will, I hope this beautiful piece will be mine and of course I will use it wisely from weekdays to weekend. Yes, this bag simply like a chameleon. You can style it for work and casual. The best part is this beautiful bag really a good carrier when you traveling. Here I share with you all, Which colours or design that I love and may choose.

A Bottle of Perfume, Please?

My friends really love to talk about clothing, bags, shoes, accessories until latest gadgets. But, one thing that didn't missed in my glass closet. Fragrance. Yes, I'm a perfume lover. I love many type of perfume brands. I don't mind, If it's cheap or expensive. I will bought it, If suit with taste and daily use. Oh yes, everyday. Smell good can give you confident and people will easily near to you. But NOT all love the scents that we use. Beware with it ya, my friend. I started using perfume in my tender age of 13. There is a reason I use perfume too young. Let it become my sad story secret. Nobody knows it. Even my mum said to me "Gan my son, you too young to own and use perfume". Then, one day..while my late dad cleaning all his perfumes and souvenirs. My late dad call my name and hand-over one of his favorite perfume Tactics by Sheisedo from the 80's. It was a great feeling the moment I received it. Vintage and smell fresh-sexy! Love it alot. I just wonder where I can get this great perfume again? My first perfume..just love it. Now, I feel regret. I should save few drops for my remembrance about my late dad.
