This boots are made for walking


Excuse the title. But this pair of boots really made me feel like dancing. Maybe it's the excitement I get from finally owning a pair of this footwear. Here where I live, we get limitless sunshine. Naturally, donning a pair of boots would get you stares and raised eyebrows from passer-bys. Scrap the attention part. That was not the reason why I wore them boots. Anyway, back to the weather. As of late, it has been raining and the weather gets really chilly. But of course I took this as an opportunity for me to wear them boots. Now I am impatiently waiting the call from the sales assistant. She has the boots that I want. I can't wait to finally have them in my hands. Waiting is such a pain. Sometimes.

Bow


I believe it was last week when I saw a girl with a bow on her hair. I really like how the bow emphasized her insanely big curly mane, and straight blunt bangs. And so I have mentioned before that I hated the dress below when I first saw it. But I got them anyway. Well if that girl had a bow on her hair, I had mine on my dress. Alright. So I admit that the chances of me wearing a bow on my hair are pretty slim to none. But then again, never say never right?

Back to basics


I finally did some shopping for basics. All of them are white tees which I bought two to three sizes bigger. That because I wanted longer tees rather than the short ones that end at the hips. The one I have on below is actually a men's basic. I got my guy to purchase them as I wasn't sure if they would be comfortable. They came in a pack of three so I took one and the rest were his. Now I might consider buying more of them because they are really light and comfy.

We went across the border again and I had to purchase this patent heels. Them heels aren't like the normal all black patent. This has a nice batik detailing.


On our last visit, I regretted not buying this particular pair of tan boots. So this time round, I had every intention to purchase them. I guess I'm not meant to own them for they did not have a nice fit. So I ended up buying this brown one instead. And trust me. They are priced damn low.

The first dress reminds me of the colour-block dresses I see soo often on the racks of Mango stores. But this dress is a little different, material and pattern wise. I did not like the second dress when I first saw them. Ironically, I got them anyway and after trying them out at home, I love them. Them wide collars are wicked.

My mum said that these shades were too huge for my face.
But I like them anyway, mum.

Fog


Black won again today. And I thought yesterday's turquoise outfit would save me from the extreme monochrome avalanche. The thing is, I am suddenly fond of black. I am donned in black these days and my purchases are black as well. Anyway, I got myself a studded black bracelet. I wore it for this outfit shot but the downpour fogged my camera and in turn, my picture came out blurred.

Breeks and chilly weather

*
I had planned to have a sumptuous dinner and I did. While deciding what to wear, I bear in mind that I needed a top that does not accentuate my food bump; the aftermath of me gorging way too much food than my stomach can handle. Anyway, I decided on wearing the jersey dress. No belts around the waist, absolutely nothing could restrict me from devouring my huge meal. Perfect.

Linger


It has been such a long time since I posted. Or has it really? Anyway, life is pretty hectic now. Them dull days have caused me to be dressed in blacks all the time. I am not complaining. In fact, I do love black. Oh yeah. Despite everything, I still managed to shop. Not much. But enough to perk me up a little. Man do I need a holiday. Somewhere out of this country maybe?

I told you so. Black has become my staples these days.


Let's start with colourful sequined flats, moving on to a quilted, patent with a ribbon lace pump to sequined heels to black patent galdiator sandal. And I still want more.
