Description I have an ongoing What I Wore series where I (surprise, surprise) illustrate what I wore on certain days. I should try to do these more often; they're really useful as drawing exercises.

See the second instalment here .

Tools: Wacom Intuos2 Tablet, Paint Tool SAI, Adobe Photoshop CS3 (to put it together).

FAQ
1. Where do you shop?
Local stores: General Pants Co. , Dangerfield , Kookai , Bardot , Supre , Sportsgirl , ValleyGirl .

Online shopping: ASOS , TopShop , Etsy & YesStyle .

Almost all of my shoes are from Zomp .

2. Did you design these clothes?
No. These are just illustrations of what I wore.

3. Do you actually own/wear these clothes?
Yes! Wouldn't it defeat the purpose of 'What I Wore' if I didn't?

4. Is your hair actually like that?
Yes. These are miniature self-portraits, after all!

5. Where can I see more of these?
Right HERE !

My favourite one is the last one. I like how you make a chill outfit that DOES look stylish, I think u must have LOTSO clothes.

Cuz the only things I see coming back are: the grey-orange dress (cool one really, not my style but very refreshing), the black shoes (of the first and the second one), some panties (the black ones I think) and the fluffy head u use with the one with the green bag.

I LOVE that outfit, really.. that jacket, the scarf, the shirt, the casual ballerinas, the black skinny... it's so beautiful <3

I like the 2nd one on the bottom a lot! You're so stylish... I wish I could pull of heels and skinny jeans (I totally can't though, haha)! I was hoping you'd make a compilation actually. I saw some of these on your blog and yeah. Great work!

this is a great idea. I know how busy my life can get and I think small projects like this where something is done as a routine is good in order to keep sane. Well done, i really like them.

God damn I like your style. Makes me pretty sad to not see more girls dress this way.

Do you have any blogs that showcase male style you're into?

vmbui In reply to Wrale [2010-02-15 17:14:13 +0000 UTC]

haha, thank you!

sorry for the late reply! take a look at these sites: [link] [link] [link] [link]

two of them are specifically for dudes, and the other two show great style/fashion for both sexes (but a lot of awesome examples of mens style). i think guys look great in a mixture of urban streetstyle (sneakers, jeans, hoodies, beanies, layering) and sharp/tailored cuts (crisp shirts, fitted peacoats, trenches, suits, trousers, blazers), especially when they mix 'n' match. i think guys get to wear awesome clothes!

Wrale In reply to vmbui [2010-02-15 22:41:46 +0000 UTC]

Hah I would argue that chicks wear the more awesome of clothes. Yeah I've just been into converse, skinny jeans, tees and western or dress shirts lately, with a variety of jackets to mix things up. After seeing some of the stuff you've posted on your tumbler I've been thinking about dressier stuff, and I think I could pull it off particularly well. Time to hit the clothing stores.

Thanks for the help, chick :]
