That is very, very, very, very cool! Inspiring, and I might have to have a second look at the local salvation army and second-hand shops for brooches and other cool accessories for some of the basic dresses I have. Can't do much layering with the climate in Singapore, or some of them would be super cool.


My favourite accessory is a compass necklace (brand new with Outfitters Girls tag) that I bought second-hand at Oxfam in London for 1/4 of the price. I feel proud being cheap! Students always ask if I have a tendency to lose my way around
