>> Another day, another onslaught of pink in to the wardrobe. Search for “Pink Style Bubble” and your eyes might need a mild bout of adjustment from the blinding myriad of shades of fuschia, rose and cerise. From my recent trip to Los Angeles and Las Vegas, what came home in the suitcase? Why, another pink ensemble, that came together without intention or purpose. A Nasir Mazhar cropped jacket from the Opening Ceremony sale (still one of my favourite OC spaces as it’s housed in Charlie Chaplin’s old dance studio), a vintage Ralph Lauren loud men’s shirt from Fruition Las Vegas that looks very un-Ralph Lauren and a clear neon pink skirt from downtown LA’s quirky answer to Cyber Dog, Round 2 LA. Together, they conjure up all kinds of things that take pink out of its comfort zone of gender-tied connotations. There’s nothing “baby” about these pinks. Especially when you take into account all of the following: Antonio Lopez’s exuberant illustrations, TLC’s matchy-matchy-but-badbass outfits, Japanese cyber candy style (specifically derived from the brand Takuya Angel), Ukiyo-e woodblock print and paintings mixed with Miami Vice graphics as seen on my crazy Ralph Lauren shirt and five coloured-hair Sooz from that early millennial series As If – basically the more awesome predecessor to Skins. Not sure if N15 is quite ready for this hyper strength dosage of pink…

Such an amazing outfit. I love how you put pieces together! You’re such an inspiration to explore my own style. Lots of love! Vicki.
Ps, TLC were so badass. Now ‘no scrubs’ is in my head… But I’m not complaining! X
Those shoes!! I’m in love.

I love how you mix things together and add in sources of inspiration, like the more traditional print 🙂

I love the transparent skirt, it takes the look into the future! Keep it up x x x
Oddly one of my favorite outfits from you Susie. Perhaps it’s the way you wrote about how there’s nothing ‘baby’ about the pink today, or just my love of sheer/transulcent skirts worn around shirts-styled, but the overload of pink in a way didn’t seem offensive, rather, symbiotic and harmonious. Then again, not so many can pull off Nasir over TLC-PVC over ‘couture’ sneax quite like Susie can.
P.S. I met Mug from GVGV in Hong Kong during an event, and I mentioned that I knew of the brand from a post you did around 2 years ago that got me hooked on her designs, she then mentioned you’ve met before (obviously) and said you were lovely.
Now that’s sulbet! Great to hear from you.
You look so cute and pretty in pink.
Cute skirt, is something that I’d love to wear!
