So, I got the film from my new SuperHeadz camera developed! I must have finished the whole roll in just 2 days, because I couldn't wait to see what kind of results I'd get. Here are a few that I'm pretty pleased with. The first one is my favourite, by far.
Can't wait to take even more photos! So much fun.
sheer white tights with floral details: thrifted (it's white, but it tends to look purple-ish under some lights)
top: Sportsgirl, a few years old
skirt: AA
belt: thrifted
beautiful brooch: handmade by Kylie, for the Pay it Forward project
P.S. I'm doing a giveaway over at A Daisy Chain Dream. Do check it out! Laura is one of my earliest and sweetest (not to mention, uber stylish!) blog friends, and not only has she been kind enough to host the giveaway, she also writes the nicest things about me and my jewellery.
Seeing that 2010 is already lurking around the corner (I know, where did 2009 go??), it feels like just the right time for this giveaway. Up for grabs is this beautiful 2010 Calendar by Susannah Tucker Photography, titled Lose Yourself in a Daydream. Each month features a gorgeous photograph with an added whimsical note, designed to help you get lost in a daydream. See more details about the calendar here. I love this so much! If I could enter my own giveaway, I would!
To enter, simply leave a comment telling me what your favourite item from Susannah's Etsy shop is.
Open to international readers. Please leave a blog link or email so I can easily contact you if you win. Ends in one week (8 Dec), and the winner will be randomly drawn soon after.
Good luck!!

Just some more photos I took with my OM-10 ages ago.

My brother just came back from Indonesia and Singapore, bearing gifts for me and my film photography love. First off, he got me a bunch of new film rolls (they're cheaper there) - so I can finally start taking LOTS of photos again - yay! And he also got me a new toy:
It's a wide lens camera by SuperHeadz (anyone familiar with this?). Good thing is, it takes the usual 35mm film. I've been testing it out already, and fingers crossed that the results will turn out okay. From what I've seen online, it should be pretty interesting - So excited! I love my big brother! At my request, he also brought back some of our childhood photos from home. I love looking at old photos, don't you? I've seen other bloggers share their nostalgic photos lately, and I can't help but join in! These were taken with the exact same camera as the photos above (my parents' Olympus OM-10), so it still fits in with today's "film photography friday" theme, right?
This one never fails to crack us up. I'm looking extremely unimpressed for some reason. "Where's my KFC?"
Looking very impressed by balloons though. Who wouldn't be?
There. Embarrassing childhood photos: done.
Meet my new favourite music group: Cocoon. I saw them last night at the So Frenchy So Chic gig, many thanks to a lucky lady who won some free tix.
Cocoon is French folk-pop duo Morgane and Mark (as opposed to "Pierre", which was what I decided to refer to him as - because it was the first French name that comes to mind. Teehee, excusez-moi!). I didn't know much about them before (obviously, seeing I didn't even know their names), but I had a good feeling as soon as I saw a ukulele on stage and then hearing them introduce songs with things-I-love names like "Sushi" and "Owls" (animals seem to be an ongoing theme in their music and videos). Sure enough, their catchy melodies, fun attitude, and sweet accent had me hooked. It doesn't hurt that she's utterly adorable and he's good looking too. Oui!
Here's a couple of their quirky-cute music videos. See what you think:
