Tug my heartstrings

I honestly think we should have like, ten days in a week.

These few years have passed by too quickly – no regrets and i’m all happy about it, but wouldn’t it be so much better if you could just hold that one moment (0r many moments) for a little longer? Makes appreciation so much better as a process. I used to wish how time would fly faster as I was a child, but now I can’t seem to be able to even grasp and hold a minute. How frustrating! Then, the issue of overall effectiveness would come into my head. Every minute of my time has to be geared towards doing something productive. Well most of my time anyways..i’m human still I tend define the term productive very broadly.

So i’ve watched The Soloist a few days back. I’ve always loved the orchestra but man, I’ve never thought very highly of the cello until i watched this movie. I used to play the organ and have been a huge fan of the strings. I’ve unfailingly been a lover of the bass. But the cello, not really.

Wait ’til you see him play.

I cried.

How passionate is passion? Now I wanna take up cello lessons.

I would also love an old school record player. All I have here for you are mere vinyls painted on paper.

Rasa Zukauskaite by Mr. Meisel

I was ecstatic to find more of his work! He’s shot J. Stam here, as mentioned in one of my earlier posts.

Below are a few shots from the Prada Spring 2010 campaign. Gawk at the texture. As commercial as they seem, he still managed to slip in his personal touch into this set.

Quite a few have commented on her bad teeth and her clear need for braces, but i beg to differ.

imperfections are what makes one perfect.

I’ve just received the brochures for a little collaboration I’ve been working on behalf of my company and eco-friendly eyewear designer, KAYU. I hope this works out to be a great debut for Stylesofia at London Fashion Week!

New year.

This year has been exceptional. The beauty of time passing us by so swiftly signifies that we’ve had fun, been busy & we’ve most importantly, learnt new things. I’m pretty sure we’ve all been preoccupied with a tonne of things in our lives this year, some completely nonsensical. Who said there always had to be a point in everything? : )

Being drunk on dreams feels a thousand times better when you’re in the midst of realizing them, one at a time. I’ve drafted mine, and it’s still subject to minor tweaks and changes here and there. Feels like sculpturing, don’t you think? I hope you have too. Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

So goodbye KL! I hope i’ll survive this two-week hiatus from work.

Blank spaces, beautiful faces.

Doutzen Kroes shot by photographer Philip Riches. Those lips! I’d like to wake up beside her every single day. For visual admiration, don’t get me wrong here.

I really miss picking up my camera and releasing the shutter release in total spontaneity.

Maybe I should very soon.

Ta!

Jessica Stam by Steven Meisel

My utter fascination with his work has proven its point.

Everyone’s been telling me I should thoroughly enjoy her size for now.

She puts on a kilogram each week. She’s only 2 months now.

Potential stud.
