Sometimes, I amaze myself by how much black I wear everyday.

All my friends think that I’ve loads of clothes, which is not quite true. The fact is, I buy pieces I know will take me a long way and I mix and match them with new purchases over the years.

Take this top for example. I have it for 8 years and it still looks great, and current!

Spring / Summer 2012 T-Shirt Collection by Depression

For people who know me well, I don’t wear a lot of t-shirts. Not that I don’t like them - in sunny Singapore, that’s probably the sensible outfit of choice, it’s just that I’m very choosy when it comes to the t-shirts I wear. It has to be of the right fabric, the right cut, and most of all, it has to be interesting.

And one place I always look to when I need a t-shirt is from local brand, Depression. I’m not saying this because I’m good friends with the designers, but that I’m truly liking their stuffs. I have no idea how the two of them manage to come up with all the wacky (good) ideas, but their t-shirts are always fun to wear and cool to be seen in them.

For Spring / Summer 2012, the design duo draw inspiration from the best of their childhood memories and captured the spirits of innocence and playfulness in their latest t-shirt collection.

“The White Sheep / Black Sheep” T-shirt - Once upon a time, the zoo used to be my favourite place on earth.

“The Story of My Life” T-shirt - Wasn’t there a time when all of us were made to think and write about our ambitions? Are you the teacher, lawyer, fireman or doctor now?    

“The Fighting Fish” T-shirt - All the boys had (at least) one fish, I didn’t. 

“The Boat” T-shirt - Other than squares, circles and triangles, this is probably the first thing I knew how to draw.

“The Bunny” T-shirt - How I wish I still believe in magic like I did when I was 5.

“The Sunny Side-Up” T-shirt - My favourite childhood food. I swear I had one almost everyday. And I still like it till today.

The T-shirts are priced between SGD49 - SGD59.

Before I sign off, here’s my take on my favourite T-shirt of the lot.

“The White Sheep / Black Sheep” T-shirt from Depression; purple drop-crotch pants from Depression; silver sandals from MBT.

And a little accessory goes a long way.

If I was a super hero, this will be the outfit.
