GLOMESH is our feature editorial for TS May, so here’s a flashback post with a glimpse of an 80s lilac Glomesh bag with an 80s lilac sari that belonged to my beloved Mother. 

It was our first time visiting this particular recycled clothing shop in Suva, a dopamine den for thrift-shopping junkies! I found a fantastic Sass and Bide bodysuit called ‘New Hope’ (Star Wars freak alert); a basic cotton salwaar (pants) that I wear as pedalpushers; and a stunning magenta Tangzhuang jacket to add to my collection of vintage Tangzhuang and Cheongsam coats.

I realised that the only tube of mascara I had was about… far too many years old, and I was in the mood to accentuate my gaze.

[For the interested: When I do use mascara, I only apply to my outer lashes to elongate my eyeline.
I also apply kajal to my upper waterline to ‘fill’ the lashline, just to define.]

Write down everything you have to do just one after the other on a notepad, number them. This is not to overwhelm you, this is NOT a “to-do”list, it’s a “brain dump”.
