Pinafore

It's been so long since I've worn a pinafore. And it's because I always thought that pinafore is somewhat troublesome  (e.g. : when you're going to toilet) but this one's definitely fine 'cause it's a pinafore dress, not a jumpsuit. Pinafore, striped top and creepers, best combo ever. I feel like an painter somehow except I need a beret and a palette to bring out that artist feel. 

I had been attacked by mosquitoes whilst taking pictures for this outfit. You might notice there are several red spots on my body. I've tried my best to remove them by editing but my editing skills aren't that mature yet. It would be very scary for you to see if I didn't remove them. 

March is ending soon. There are quite a number of things that happened in March. April is sprouting soon, looking forward to a better month, seriously. Currently having two weeks of break now. Time to enrich myself with books and more updates on blog! 

Love,

Last Wednesday, De Fashionista Club took the initiative to have a dress code every Wednesday in the college. So last week's dress code was BLUE X WHITE. It somehow inspired me to do this look. Of course, I didn't wear this to college. Students at my college aren't allowed to wear shorts, or anything short. I wore this on the other day instead. Am in love with this sweater, it has cutout at the side of the shoulders which make it looks like crochet but technically it isn't. It's so lovely and makes me feel like spring right now although my country is one with whole year summer. But trust me, this sweater is suitable to wear in this hot weather because the cutouts have good wind circulation, you get me?

Shoutout for this Topshop shorts. My boyfriend bought me this awhile ago and it's my first ever item from Topshop! The shorts are actually high-waisted. Its cutting is so perfect. I think I would wear it for a really long time and even pass it down to my daughter? 

Oh and yes, the watch is one of my birthday presents from my parents. It has Swarovski crystals. It's a white watch meaning I have to take good care of it to make sure it won't get dirty easily.

Last but not least, these boots from Agape Boutique are super comfy and I mean it. You can definitely trust me because I weren't wearing socks inside the boots yet I didn't have the gooey sweaty feel wearing them. Besides that, for people like me who can't really walk on heels for long time, this pair of boots are an exception.

Eighteen

February 5, 2014, the day that I thought that it would be just another normal day, the day that I would be the only one who's so crazily anticipated for it to come and the day celebrating it alone. However, my friends and family somehow proved that I was wrong, in a good way. 

I went to college on that day as usual, not expecting anything to happen. Unexpectedly, college friends threw me a surprise at a café during break time! I seriously didn't know how to react when all the passer-by(s) and other customers in the cafe glanced at me as they sang the birthday song.

After college, on my way back home, I received text messages from my boyfriend, telling me he couldn't celebrate my birthday with me, although he was smartly hideous, I knew it was lie straight away though. I thought he was definitely already at my home waiting for me and perhaps we're gonna have dinner together. However, it was beyond what I imagined. 

By the time I stepped into my house entrance door, Vichy, my best friend, jumped straight out and surprised me with a loud party popper with confetti(s) flying out scattered all around.  I was literally shocked till I fell and sat right down on the floor. When I got up, Yuen Loong, my boyfriend jumped out and scared me off with a 2nd popper. Boom! Totally caught me off guarded. The whole entire process from the moment I entered the house till the end of the surprise was being recorded. I kept re-watching the video repeatedly, so embarrassed yet so touched. They also gave me a few missions to be completed before arriving at the biggest surprise. Searching for the letters around the house and accomplishing the missions written on the letters. After finishing the task, I finally get to go into my room. 

My room, was so pretty and beautiful that day. White and pink helium balloons floating in the air overhanging memorable photos. Also, Hello Kitty and Birthday Diva balloons. Didn't know my room could be this pretty. Not just my photos hanging on the balloon but also the photo of my family, photo of Vichy with me and photo of my boyfriend and me. Memories. It was indeed a birthday surprise that I had always been dreaming about. Thank you my dear Yuen Loong, Vichy and my family for making this come true. Thank you guys for putting so much effort to make this day so memorable. Grateful.

Im officially eighteen years old now. 

Love,
