Outfits: Girl Sailor

SHIPS LOG: Its been a rainy few weeks in Manila, perfect for the Shins and endless cups of Whittards spicy chai tea. If only A had galoshes!Ive never been a huge fan of music. Whenever Im out with B and friends I never know any of the songs that the DJs play. Its a sad thing really and I resolve to watch more MTV (my little brother will see to that)!Generally my tastes run toward what I call Topshop music and what Chantal calls songs-that-dont-make sense (Los Campesinos! anyone?), and when rainy season hits Middle Manila I like to put in mix-CDs on my ancient Sony player. I dont know why but only then do I find it very calming to stare up at my ceiling while listening to Badly Drawn Boy, the Shins, the Smiths, and Neutral Milk Hotel. Does that make me a hipster? I greatly fear it might.Tumblr and Blogger posts with rather treacly lyrics tend to be the bane of the (un)civilized worldwide web, but I figure theres a first time for everything. And selling out to the Shins is probably the best way to go. :)A stronger girl would shake this off in flight,And never give it more than a frowning hour,But you have let your heart decide,Loss has conquered youYouve won one too many fights,Wearing many hats every time,But you wont win here tonight . . .—The Shins, Girl SailorWhat sort of music do you like to chill out to?A wears cream T-shirt, navy Zara heels, H&M coat, Topshop skirt, and thrifted bag.
