Denim.

...is an obsession that I've picked up ten years ago...Mainly on jeans...

But the sad thing was that most of my jeans at that time were hand-me-downs from my older brothers...

So you can imagine how baggy the jeans looked on me... But of course, I didn't have any fashion sense at that time and just wear whatever I think that was 'cool' to my liking... :P

And I actually started buying clothes for myself when I was in my senior year in high school, and that wasn't really a success since I didn't know how to 'flaunt' or 'accentuate' my body...Hehe...

Hence, I started to understand the art of shopping and styling during my first year in Melbourne ;)

I started collecting non-other than Levi's jeans of course...

My Levi's Collection that I brought back from Melbourne

Then I fell in love with Bettina Liano's denim collection.... And pretty bought pretty much all of the jeans in different style or colour within 2 years after that...

There was also phase where I was into the 'designer' jeans... Basically it's the American branded jeans...Thanks to the celebrities and the fashion magazines...

My America Collection: Se7en Jeans for Mankind, True Religion, Rock & Republic, Citizens of Humanity, Guess 

I also started buying Australian branded jeans (besides Bettina Liano)...

My Aussie Collection: Portmans, Nobody Jeans, Satch, Sass and Bide, Bardot, Ksubi (formerly known as Tsubi)

There were also jeans from other countries that I've added to my collection:

My Other Countries Collection: Edwin (Japan), Diesel (Italy), Topshop (UK), Nudie/Denimbirds (Sweden), Iceberg (Italy)

These 2 babies were my best friends when I was buying all dem' jeans while studying in Melbourne:


and

:P

To date, I have a total of 35 jeans in my wardrobe here in KL... And I've left about 8 pairs in Melbourne... I told you that it is an obsession...A very bad one indeed..:P

Since I came back to KL, my denim maniac act has cooled down...Like A LOT!!! Guess coz the good ones are usually expensively priced over here and I actually have to pay with my own money :P

Lately, I've been abandoning my jeans due to the current hot weather in KL... But it's not going to stop me from buying another pair ;) There are a lot of brands out there that I've yet to lay my hands on... *wink*

And yes I know that I only have a pair of legs... Hah...

I do collect other denim materials such as handbags, pencil cases, skirts and dresses...But those couldn't beat my jeans collection...

So it was a natural thing to add 'Denim' as one of the 3-word title for my blog...

Think you can beat my obsession in Denim? :P
