Remember this flower from this post? This is how it looks like now:

Well no, I do have just enough of a life not to do sick jokes like this to a perfectly fine pot of flower, and seriously I thought Azaleas would last forever. It just started dying one day and now it looks like damn pot-pourri.

I’m thinking of spritzing some deodrant on it and leaving it at my new neighbour’s doormat as a welcoming gift.

Sorry for the lack of posts. Would you pat me if I told you what happened last night? Nothing serious, just a big fat FAIL. I had work piled up in the to-do list – combination of schoolwork, work, emails to answer, etc… but I was so tired that I went up to sit on the bed. (jeez. not sure why) Then I jolt up and it’s bright out, I’m in the covers and all but I’m still wearing my glasses and makeup.

I don’t know how one manages to sleep in a bed with glasses on. For 10 hours.

Anyway.

Why the name Park & Cube? [Maria]This is going to sound corny and cliché, but since you asked… Park is my last name, so that one’s easy – the corny starts at Cube.

I realised how fashion blogs can easily turn into something overly materialistic and shallow in content, so I was quite determined to give this blog some depth. I took the idea of a typical square image, and basically gave it more depth in a physical sense. So a 2D, flat or ‘shallow’ element gains depth and becomes a 3D cube. That’s where the Cube is from. Don’t get it? Don’t worry, I don’t really get it either.

Do you have any DIY-projects you’d love to try, but haven’t yet? [Maria]

I’d love to try something like this, jacket embellishment using thick-width ribbons, subtle but bold at the same time. (Found in Anywho)

What’s your favourite area in London? [Zara]

Can’t say I really have a favourite, but I do love the Docklands. Not many people know about it since it’s not really a part of the tourbus route – this is where Canary Wharf is, the business sector of London. No, I don’t hang out with depressed stockbrokers, I just like how the river and concrete meet – sort of like a hypermodern Venice. There are residental areas where flats look out straight onto a canal – One day I’d like to live in one of those flats and toss leftover pizza crusts right out the window for the swans. Convenient waste disposal, I must say.

What three things would you bring to a desert island? [Phuong]

• TV
• DVD Player
• Band of Brothers Boxset

Given that I won’t need to build myself a mini wind generator for electricity cuz I so suck at manuals.

Are you blind yet? Sorry about the pictures, the yellow is overburnt – which really can’t be helped when you have Lightsabres as legs, you could cut steak with my shins.

Who takes your pictures? [Mira]

In London 85% of the time my friend Ellen takes my outfit pictures, 10% done by my bf, and then an occasional 5% by my brother. In Poland my mother and brother share the privilege of snapping (at) me.
All the DIY tutorial photos and photos taken inside my flat are done with my minion tripod and an army of  kittens. (They braid my hair on my pee break)

What is your favourite kind of breakfast? [Shin]

Pot roast? I’m not much of a breakfast person but when I do have one I think my favourite will always be very fruity pancakes + maple syrup combo – good healthy dose of sugar to jumpstart the day.

What’s your favourite colour? [Chloe]

Yellow. I guess it sort of defines my personality, you know, CAUTION, HAZARDOUS..etc.

How do you put your outfits together? [M]

I always start off with one statement item, be it in shape or colour – then I run around the flat half naked trying to build on top of that. I think once you have your big piece, everything else will fall in with all the necessary basics. Although, problem arises when I start out with a basic piece, then I end up changing 4 times and running out late without shoes. I suck at accessorizing so depending on outfit I either skip it alltogether or take way too long trying to untangle a necklace that sucks to begin with.

Quick post today.

Many of you precious readers asked what camera I’m using. I use a Canon 400D and a family of lenses that I collected over teaching myself how to use the camera. Most importantly, all the photos in the blog taken by my camera are fed through photoshop first to crop and adjust brightness, colour and saturation. I have this image of freshly taken photos as red, blood dripping raw meat which needs to be cooked thoroughly before being served. Obviously like steak, this also depends on how well done you want it and I personally like it medium well done. Also remember, overcooking leads to burning, which leads to fire, which leads to a housefire, which can lead to a forest fire, which leads to national disaster, which may lead to THE END OF THE WORLD. Underlining moral: don’t crank up the saturation.

I’m always open to give help and advice!

(yes I do realise the sidebar is a bit broken, it just happened on its own so I’m gonna see if it’ll go away on its own…)
