Don't think, just shoot!





























Romper - Old Navy
Headband - Forever 21
Cap - Volcom
Bow - Bugis Street

I got a horrible nose infection, sore throat & fever on Wednesday. I took a 3 days MC & all I did the 3 days was sleep, wake up & read Harry Potter ( I have been re reading the books & I cried again when Fred was killed ) but spending time on my bed sick was still so much better than work!

I spent my pay investing in a Fujifilm instax mini 7 & a Holga 135 BC camera + a color flash! This will be a start to my toy collection!! ;) It was a really hot day yesterday but the boyf also bought a new DSLR so we braved the heat & went to City Hall to start shooting! I wore my favourite romper from Old Navy & even while wearing sleeveless I was perspiring like mad already!

I love seeing how the film darkens whenever I take a photo wit my Fujifilm! If only the films weren't so expensive! But I am so tempted to get the films wit the Hello Kitty border already!
The shutter sound on the Holga also makes me very excited! It is weird not being able to delete photos that I don't want after I take them but I can't wait to finish this roll of films on my holga & see how the photos turn out :D

I will end this post wit one of the outfits I wore to work ! PS. anymore toy cameras to introduce to me? :D



Top - Online
Skirt - Custom-made

  23. Oooh yay I LOVE my Holga 135bc, I just need to remember to remove the lens cap first lol. And I have the wide version of the Fuji, I just wish film was cheaper here :( Oooh you should use the Vivitar Ultra Wide&Slim if you get the chance. Oh, the Olympus XA2 is SO amazing, so if you can find it, I would definitely recommend buying it :) Annnnd I love your top you wore to work. Hope you're feeling lots better from the infections :)

  61. I have a few things to say: first, I love your pictures. They are so vibrant! I forget what warm colors look like because where I am, there's snow on the ground. Also, you have such a darling sense of style. It works and everything again, is loaded with color. Loves it. Finally, your hair. You have such beautiful hair. I love how dark it is and its' natural shine.
