Went to do some retail shopping with Ju Lyn during the two weeks break. The two weeks break was really fruitful. Especially when I saw the amount I have earned in the cafe. When I went back to reality, classes were really hectic, with work along is making me feeling really exhausted. Can someone ask me if I am okay?
I am even planning to quit twitter to avoid more negativity which also drag my exhaustion to my maximum.
Initially, I wanted to show how can statement pieces spice up staple clothes with those that are currently residing in my wardrobe. Whenever I do, I ended up creating some other boring looks instead of the ones I have illustrated. I really do need to learn not to get too carried away when doing what I love.
During off school hours, I took some pictures using the DSLR I bought for myself last Christmas (for the first time in my 19 years, I bought myself a present). I dressed up and then had fun playing with the limited amount of outfits I have.
Okay, I counted the number of looks I have came up with. Enough to last until the end of the term. LOL SAID ENOUGH.
Why do I like to dress up?
Oh well, dressing well means respecting the people who you are meeting. This is simple.
My boss once taught me about the importance of first impression. Although many times I do not agree with what he says, it is my choice whether I want to accept it or not. Well. To me there is no harm asking the older ones when I am in doubt. It is definitely better than assuming.

I matched the LBD with a pair of blue sneakers which also matches the denim jacket that mommy hand down to me. Trying to put out various looks with staple clothing. First motive is to save money. Secondly, to make simple clothing looks more sophisticate.
Staple clothing are really important when you are in a polytechnic or school that allows you to wear home clothes. You do not need to spend a lot of money to buy high end or in- trend clothes. A white tee shirt or a plain dress can also makes you look really good. It is all about how are you going to pull them off and/ or how confident were you when you are wearing them.
The two looks are really easy to match them with bold statement pieces.
