Anyway, I woke up this morning with body aches , a headache, sore throat and a blocked up nose. After dosing up with Panadol, caffeine and a bowl of Cocopops, I contemplated my wardrobe. You know those days when you can't decide what to wear? This wasn't one of those days. I knew exactly what I wanted - to dress up uber-put-together so I wouldn't collapse at work. If I could have, I would have stayed at home, with a huge pot of Chai tea and the TV remote. Daytime soap repeats galore. But of course, this was the one Monday I couldn't miss (experiments to be set up) and the coldest Melbourne Monday yet. So I picked out my best 'this-will-bolster-me' outfit.
Looking at my outfit today, I realised that I was channelling a bit of this seasons androgyny trend. Admittedly, it doesn't look as good on my 5ft 3 frame as on a super tall model.

This seasons tuxedo trend also ties in with this, a simple blazer with pared down clean black lines. Such a fun trend for winter. I might use this in more outfits over the next few weeks.
Have a good week everyone :)

ReplyDeletealexander wangs clothes are the best! i'm kinda also wishing that i had those supre dooper long legs aswell.
You need better lighting for your photos. And omg... there's a bird outside the window attacking its image.
ReplyDeleteBoy do you I feel you about being 5' 3", i'm an inch shorter than you! HAHA
ReplyDeleteAnyhow, thank God for otc drugs, eh? I don't know how I would live with my fevers and cramps without Tylenol and Aleve in my life. I'd just be a mess.
Thank you for the comment! In all honesty, I know I'm not fat, but I'm not skinny either; I would classify myself as a little on the chubby side, but that's okay, I'm learning to work with it these days. I love food too much to give it up completely like I used to in college! :)
