Mellow Yellow


 
    I adore pastels, but there are days when life needs a splash of cornea-searing colours to brighten up the day. This yellow skirt was sort of an afterthought purchase, now in hindsight it's probably one of the more practical of my purchases, other than acid-wash jeans and baggy cotton t-shirts.
 
    Anyway, I've decided to put together some outfits with it -- one weekful to be exact (is that even a word -- weekful?)  I was rushing through everything because the sun was fast disappearing into the rainclouds. Talk about a weather face-about!

    That's all, I guess! I think I am on the verge of falling asleep on my keyboard, I just finished my O&G assessment and it was so tiring mentally. I need a good dose of "The Simpsons", a nice bath and plenty of uninterrupted sleep pronto! Bonne nuit, mes amis!

Bienvenue Printemps!


 
There's a hope in every new seed,
And every flower that grows upon the earth.
 
-- Noah and the Whale "The First Day of Spring"

 
NOTES
 
    I'm wearing a most unabashedly floral dress that I thrifted a few months back at half its original price. Just perfect for sunny days and as a makeshift tablecloth /curtain/ armchair cover at Grandma's house. Super functional this dress.
 
    In other news, I'm still scouring for an everyday bag to thrash all my crazy stuff in, looking for the perfect nude pumps and white platform sandals and some pastel items for spring, and trying my best to sneak in some outfit posts in between my hectic on-call days and my upcoming O&G assessments. Ah, c'est la vie ... it's not always a bed of roses!

Princess for a Day


 
That I'm not a princess, this ain't a fairytale.
I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet.
 
-- Taylor Swift "White Horse"
 
 
NOTES
 
    I've been wanting to do an outright girly post with this dress for a long time. When I first received it, the petal pink hue reminded me a little of Miss Dior Chérie's parfum ad. I love that the details are girlishly sweet and yet not overly so, perhaps just like a Miss Dior Chérie.
