perfect for summer.

do you ever forget what's in your wardrobe? 'cos i do; especially with the clothes that are stuffed inside my overflowing chest of drawers. i tend to just grab whatever's on top and thus can forget what i have at the bottom of the drawer.

so it's nice to be 'reminded' of those apparel that i neglect every once in a while. i saw a David Lerner floral lace leggings on shopbop.com last night and immediately thought of my Aung leggings which are almost exactly the same. even though i was just going to the PO this afternoon, i took them out for a run.

David Lerner leggings (current season) available here, USD$110.

Aung leggings from A/W2009 collection, AUD$40 (i think)

i came across Burma-born, Australian designer, Aung, this year in June at the Bondi Sunday Market. a very humble and down-to-earth fella, Aung's collection are pretty basic but with a twist and are always full of colours. i was drawn to his acid wash and tie-dye basics so bought a couple (he even gave me a discount which was really nice of him!). these are a few designs from his S/S 2009 collection -

i'm wearing Aung's acid washed singlet dress with vintage belt, vintage top, and Keds.

ps. the model's tattoos are totally wicked!
