"Everyone has their wants and desire from time to time. And this, we call it Covet"
As the fashion trends go pretty short-spanned nowadays, I can see that the WANTS and DESIRE of materialist things become more of a social peer pressure to FIT IN the society. Be it gadgets, applications, dietary, lifestyle and the list just goes on. The cyber world has turn us to be brain-washed humans scrolling and liking picture perfect things and slowly when more people has them? You just want them too. For me, I have been in the fashion industry for 5 years and trust me, there isn't a need to have your OCD relapse when it comes to trends, unless it's for the better you.
As I grew up and realise how brands and people market their products into brainwashing you to "BUY ALL THEIR PRODUCTS" I do see the curb of impulsion in the case when you feel stress and out to fit in. I seldom shop online these days unless for things I've personally seen them in real life and compare the online prices are cheaper. If not, it's a big NO NO to shop online with a pretty handful of bad experience. From quality to sizes you name it. And seeing your bank account depleting in funds isn't very cool.
But here are some items I personally covet and I do consider to own them if I found that after months or years I still see the beauty in them.
1.Chrome Hearts Silver Rings
I am not a 925 silver friendly person to being with, thus this range of awesome design that cost S$1000 and above would probably my last choice of owning them. Unless they suddenly wish to produce in platinum or white gold. As for now, I'd wish this is given to me by a close friend or my partner as something I can wear out and I feel rings are meant to be gifts.
(*I wear size 5 for the Cemetery ring and 4.5 for the Love Ring)
2. Whites
You name it! From shoes, clothes to sheets, I just love them in white and plains. But it pretty hard to maintain whites in Singapore weather. Things will either turn yellow or just grey!
3. Craftholic
Soft and cuddly. I just like the one I featured above and I think it has ceased re-production of this color combination anymore :-( Anyways, this is one of which I'll love to own since I'm always travelling, I can bring him along. LOL
4. Kawaii Wedge
And I do mean those wedge that are really unique and pretty. Of course comfortable too. No why(s) for this point as I think I have a weakness in anything that is girly and cute yet usable. But let's come to reality, it pretty hard to find a pair of cute wedge in Singapore. So all these images I found online will be only just to please my desire for them.
5. Matching Swags
I call them swags because they some sort brings out a character in you. Not all people are into a specific color tone these days. But for me, it got to be fuchsia or shocking pink! Or other colors I like in the color swatches.
6. My Calvins
Who doesn't desire a good pair of intimates? There is never enough, so I guess this will be an "ONGOING COVET".
7. Passport Holder
A way to keep all my travel documents in place as my old passport holder served no purpose except protecting the passport. So from that day onward I did not get myself a new one which was functional.
8. Watch
A noob when it comes to watches. But I guess a vintage Hermes Heure H MM will be good to do the trick. Or if I get more mature a Cartier with leather strap is a good choice :-)
-Simply one needs to tell the time, especially when the phone runs out of battery-
9. Goyard
Haven't own one yet as it always doesn't have the color I wanted when I wanted to get one. And stating the fact it's canvas only. This brand is slightly pricey. But for the monogram prints? It's just classy and priceless!
10. Casio TR Camera
Which Asian girl doesn't drool for this especially in Champagne Gold? I'm just wishing I see this on my doorstep one day. Hee Hee~
So... What things do you covet?
