Obsessions

My list of current lusts and musts:

Fashion


Bottega Venetta's exclusive Nero Jardin Decalee Bag. Only 200 sold worldwide. Very chic with the flower details each made painstakingly with precious leather, hence the price tag of SGD 11,500 (approx USD 7000)
Onitsuka Tigers sneakers for their old school design.
The Linear Silhouette in plain colours for the sixties swing.
Black outfits from Calvin Klein with minimal distractions and classic cuts with fine detailing.
Black leather pumps for a little Dominatrix and yet classy.

Others

Traditional red bean Potong Ice cream, my perennial obsession and childhood comfort food.
Jude Law - Such a charmer and a joy to watch
Morinaga chocolates, specifically the bitter chocolate. With the smooth consistency of milk chocolate but the deep flavour of true coca, this reminds me of decadent chocolate cake. I also recommend Dars dark chocolate, which tastes pretty much the same but comes in convenient cubes.
Renting DVDs. What better way to spend a boring morning?
Samsung's YP-F1 MP3 player compact, stylish and functional with a clip on pendant shape.
Keynesian Economics, which I'm burying my head in for the A Levels. Don't save! Spend!
