Hello swethearts! How has your week treated you? If it hasn’t done you justice, don’t worry, you could soon score some shoes! For the observant readers you may have noticed that I’m wearing a mens shirt as a skirt. As you know, I get a kick out of wearing clothes in off-beat ways. This one is really easy- just pick your favourite mens shirt, undo the top few buttons, slip into it, and tie the sleeves as a bow. Now you have a choice, wear it at the front, or at the back!
Outfit: vintage necklaces, linen top (similar one here), YSL ring, silk shirt (as skirt), clutch, Shoebiz Jane shoes
What do you think of my new slingbacks? I got them from Shoesales.com.au, an amazing online shoe empire created by Figgins Holdings, the original largest shoe company in Melbourne who owned Evelyn Miles, Mollini, Midas, Shoebiz and Scooter. You may recall a pair of satin Chinoiserie shoes I wore recently from Shoesales.com.au here.
To celebrate their 1st birthday (happy birhday!) and to bring remedy to our shoe lust, Shoesales.com.au is generously gifting one of my lovely readers a pair of these charming heels. I have chosen the tan Jane shoes as the shape, texture (patent AND suede!) and colour caught my fancy. They also appear in blue which would be sweet with denim and are highly trans-seasonal. Very soon, Shoesales.com.au will be showcasing their brand new AW12 collections, ooh can’t wait to see all the new styles! So, shoe lovers, here are the simple ways to win your new heels:
- Come Like Shoesales.com.au on Facebook
- Be my friend on GFC and Facebook
- Leave a comment with your shoe size and preferred colour
Now, which colour?

Hi Cecylia, while you were here in Singapore, I was in Penang haha! Weird. I wore a shirt as a skirt when I was a preschooler, and I don’t know what I think of myself attempting it again. You look fabulous, and I wouldn’t have though that it was a men’s shirt if you hadn’t share! Its awesome that you believe everyday is worth dressing up for, I need to take a leaf out of your book! I like a tan so I will go crazy for a tan Jane, shoe size 36. I like shoesales.Com.au on Facebook. I’m following your blog via GFC(BethQuahSooJing) and Facebook(Beth Quah SooJing). I’m chuffed that you had a pleasant stay here:) have a great week in HongKong!
Hi Beth! You are so adorable, wish we’d met up!!! Next time for sure! I love your comment, thank you so much!
Thank you for your compliments Cecylia! You had me awestruck:) And your reply made me happy and warm for days, you sure are getting a head start on spreading the holiday cheer! Im usually frumpy and you might tut-tut at what I’m wearing! Wished I could have seen you in Singapore:)
Thank you Beth, it would be great to meet you next time I’m in Singapore or if you’re in Melbourne! :)
Great outfit! You look so pretty!<3

[…] I see you’ve been eyeing my little shirt collar! Last week I accidentally burnt one of hubby’s shirts (read: bad wife) whilst ironing. In these couple of years, I have killed quite a few of his shirts, thanks to my inability to not multi-task and my slight ADD antics. They used to just end up in the bin but this time the precious DIY opportunity shone its light on me. Plus, saving the collar and the sleeve cuffs actually completely justified the over-heating incident. I didn’t have time to jazz it up so just added some animal brooches (the lazy method). For more ideas on what to do with unwanted mens shirts, see here. […]
