My look of the day today was styled around this great suede jacket I bought at Dongmyo flea market for W3,000 ($3 US). I loved the orange silk lining and I knew immediately that I wanted to add tassels to it. I bought the black suede tassel from Dongdaemun fabric market for W2,000/meter and hand stitched it to the jacket. This took a few hours actually, but if I used a sewing machine I would have had to rip apart the lining and I am not near skilled enough to handle that. I was so happy with the result - it looks very authentic - and I'm totally going to try to find some more old jackets to reform and sell.

The black and white tee is from oaknyc.com which has an amazing box shape the drapes the body very flatteringly. And I love how Hamburglar the prison stripes are.

The tights are just shredded women's panty hose which I cut the feet off and layered under a pair of cutoff shorts. Definitely not a warm enough look for the current weather conditions in Seoul but very much okay come spring. I also found these glasses at Dongmyo flea market and I think I paid about W2,000 for them.

studded gloves / handmade
acid wash baggy jeans / Topman
black leather ankle boots / Aldo
black sunglasses / Resurrection

Finally my first chadchad of the day from London! I've been too busy enjoying the city since I've been here to get around to taking photos of myself. My friend Burger has been an ideal host - each day has come with a surprise event or activity along with some amazing restaurants. We saw the Dirty Dancing musical at the Aldwych Theatre, we saw his friend Bret perform a swinging hoop show at this hip little club/restaurant called Circus, we danced to oldies at a party called Bang Bang at the Bath House and we walked through a Winter Wonderland festival at Hyde Park where we ate Dutch poffertjes and Jamie Oliver's mince pies. No classic fish & chips or pints of ale yet but that is sure to come.

I wore this outfit on the day Burger did a filming for M-Net, a TV station from Korea. I'll write more about that in my next post. The filming was done outdoors walking around Carneby & Regent Streets so I wanted to make sure I dressed warm. This amazing long scarf from General Idea by Bum Suk Choi / 최범석 that I borrowed from Burger's closet was perfect for the occasion. It's about 4 meters long so it keeps out the chilly breeze no problem.

These baggy, elastic waist acid wash jeans from Topman were my first purchase in London and I'm so in love with them. A far cry from the skinny jeans you usually find me in but so easily adaptable into my wardrobe. Very 80's, very comfortable, very good buy.

/ It's my first 'chadchad of the day'! Since I'm going to see Autokratz tonight here http://bit.ly/bfYinq I didn't want to wear a thick warm jacket so I opted for the trench coat I reformed and wore the opening day of fashion week. I bought the spikes at Dongdaemun fabric market and put them on using an awl, a hammer and a metal base. They were kind of expensive for studs, W600 each (~50 cents US) and I used around 60 of them. But I think it's 30 dollars well spent to transform a basic black jacket into something much edgier.

The dinosaur necklace is something I created as well. I've made quite a few using plastic children's toys, spray paint and gold or black chain to sell at monthly flea markets around Seoul like the Ecomarket by Cracker Your Wardrobe magazine or the Bling magazine Night Flea Market at Platoon Kunsthalle. Come to the next one on December 11th or message me and I can special order one just for you^^

The cropped sweater is one of a few things I recently ordered from Oak NYC and love.  It drapes on the body so well. The jeans I've had for years and just can't give up even though they have so many patched holes in the crotch, which I'm convinced happen to all my jeans because I'm a fast walker in tight jeans.  ha. The tank top is something I found in a random little shop in Toronto over the summer - there was a Karl Lagerfeld one as well which I totally should have bought.  The shoes I've had for a few years as well (as you can tell by how worn in and in need of a polish they are) but just recently traded their original basic black laces for transparent ribbon, inspired by the black ballet flats I wore in the ALANI SS11 show during Seoul Collection. /
