Dato Lau Lin aka Duke Of Durian

In this exhibition, Herbie & Koey are privileged to be invited as a contributing artist group, 
under the alto ego of Ketchup & The Caveman



And this is how the story of the work goes:

Once upon a time, in a kingdom not so far away (since we're doing local fruits) 
where fruits rule the land, two weavers from Rambutan were brainstorming on the brief 
they just received from the King & Queen to style a party for the annual royal ball:

"Lat's du sumting about the Rockal Floot..."

"You mean local fruits?"

"Rockal Floot!"



"Rocker Fruits?"

"Watdewer."

"Any ideas?"



"Wi kan make a cop porn with floot favor."



"You mean pop corn with fruit flavor."



"Dats wat I sait wat."

"Should we have studs & spikes?"



"U min on da cop porn?"



"No, on the Rocker floots, I mean fruits. I don't think corn is consider as a fruit."



"hokaye~"



And so they went ahead & present the idea to the Queen & 
got squashed as mocktails for the ball.

The End.

Treasure Trove.

Found this lovely knit dress from mom's wardrobe, it was hidden treasure indeed!
She was wearing this beautiful piece at my age or earlier...
Wearing old piece is like a sensation of touch with old time ^.^
My bf's wardrobe is another treasure trove for me!
I love to digging up and look at something that I could wear from his wardrobe.
Never disappoint me every time exploring in his closet - discovered this army green jacket!
According to him, it was bought in Bangkok more than 10 years ago...
So don't throw away your preloved clothing, they can be a treasure later ^.^
The truth is a fashion trend will repeat itself in about 10 years+ or more.
This oversize outwear is an oldie but goodie piece since it's look pretty cool, isn't it?
Military jacket is a boyish piece that can instantly add a character to our personality 
Here i combine my mom's white dress with my bf's old jacket to create an interesting contrast.
Wearing military jacket over a little knit dress is a great way in balancing the 
masculine & the feminine look.
Planning to stay over at my friend's place after the Friday night happy hour ^.^
Hence an oversized military style backpack (from my bf) is a perfect carry on bag.
Wearing some cool & bright colors jewelries to add a chic touch to the look.
Rock the military style with a pair of comfy footwear from adidas and look cool!
It's raining out there. 
Here some random shots while waiting for the rain to stop.
Enjoy your Weekend!
