Girly, not so girly

A luncheon yesterday with my family and this was my outfit of yesterday.
#OOTY
I wonder anyone in this world actually uses #OOTY.

Yesterday is all about 'Re.'
I got this idea last night that I wanna re-wear my old clothes and accessories.
Reuse, rewear, recycle.
Why not? I'm helping the Earth and my wallet to do money-saving BIG TIME.

What I posted on my Instagram account.
I bought that pair of round shade 1 or 2 years ago with Tong Lu.
It was a HIT back then, and the heat slowly fades, eventually, it died out. 
However, yesterday was all about 'Re',
so time to put dem shades back on ma face!

A pink and navy T-shirt stripe dress from Uniqlo,
Napoleon stripe watch with rose gold ring from Daniel Wellington, 
blue and red shoulder bag from Adidas Original, 
and neon red casual shoes from Nike.  

I bought this pair of gem about one or 2 years ago,
because I was crazy about hitting the gym and I bought this 'running/training' shoes... turns out it is actually for casual purpose.
I like neon red too but it is hard to match with most of my outfit,
so I am now trying (hard) to make the best out of it.

I usually match it with matching colour tone or neutral colour like white, black, grey and beige,
or with simple patterns like stripes or plain at all.
I won't blend it with bright colours because I don't want the brighter colours to overshadow the shoes. 

Girly, not so girly.

With love,
uweng

Anyway,
since today is Friday,
I really want to go out for a walk, in a nice dress and enjoy window shopping.
So I went pavilion and had lunch with le BFF - Tong Lu.
We work very hard in our diet and our workout routine to be healthy (or look sexy, NAKED),
but not today.

WE HAD CARLS JR BURGERS.

Na... I'm not even 0.01% hot like Kate Upton.

Yours truly. 

Le BFF. 

Such rare occasion,
I have the mood to peel myself from my warm, fuzzy, messy bed,
put on a dress and some light make up.
Outfit of today, observe.

An aerial view of my OOTD:
black boho dress from Cotton On;
beige shoulder bucket bag from Rubi by Cotton On; 
pointy flats with ankle straps from Rubi by Cotton On.

By now you should know I'm a HUGE fan of Cotton On. 

A little detail shot of my bracelets.

A little boho/Coachella vibes here in the piping hot Malaysia.

Comparison

I hate comparison.
I really hate it. Even if you put it in 'there won't be growth if there's no comparison.'
I STILL hate to be compared with others.
Let me put it in this way,
Nobody likes to be compared to others.

Photo by giphy

My mom compares me to others since when I was a kid up until this day.
90% of my heart, soul, and mind already numb to all this crap.
And Chinese parents always compares,
so I'm numb, the remaining 10% if probably anger or about to cry anytime if she wont stop that topic.
But what I'm mad about is not only my mom compares me, even my boy compares me to others.
WHAT THE HELL.

Mariah, you've never been so right.

I'm not mad at that girl...
I'm just mad at my guy that why would he wanna compares me?
Doesn't he know that he actually DID hurt my feelings?
Not hurt 'a lil bit', but I am really disappointed.
I can't tolerate with that.

Just to express my negativity.

UGH

Need Skechers D-Lites

Aloha humans~
How was your day because my day is goooood~
I played the guitar and playing one of my recent fav- Earned It by The Weeknd.

Photo by Tumblr

Gawdddddd................ Smooth and sexy as hell.
The whole kinky but sexy Christian Grey thing haunts me EVERY.SINGLE.TIME when this song is playing.
Boyyyy is he hot or what.

Photo by knowyourmeme

I go with 'what.'

So today,
after I played the guitar until the tip of my fingers turned red and hurt real bad and started to peel by itself,
I surf the Internet and I saw Skechers D-Lites.
I was like WHAT THE F*CK I NEED IT LIKE RIGHT NOW RIGHT NOW RIGHT NOW.

My friends and I are a huge fan of shoes, especially Nike Air Max and Flyknit.
Whenever we see nice design from Nike Air Max,
the photo (yes, only photos) go viral within us and we screamed at the photo,
thinking to buy or not to buy (a huge Shakespeare moment here) although one of us already bought 2 pairs.
Definitely not me and he probably gave no fuck to the Shakespeare dilemma.

So other than Nike Air Max,
I think Skechers D-Lites is my new fav.
D-Lites is already a mega hit in Korea, then slowly to Taiwan, and to Hong Kong.
I wonder had the wildfire spread to Malaysia now.
 
What I really like about D-Lites is that the colour combination.
It is not limited to only black x grey x white, although it is the most versatile colours combo compare to others.
It has red x blue x white, blue x grey x white, different shades of grey, all white as well.
Skechers also release series called 'Golden Panda',
which is black x white x and a lil touch of gold at the back of the shoes. 
There are still plenty of combos out there, so be sure to check it out.
 

Other than the colours, Skechers outdone themselves by the pattern at the sole.
OMG the animal prints are the little thing that actually grab my attention.
They combine zebra print x leopard print in black, grey and white - they call it 'Wild Panda'.
I'm totally HOOKED. (where is the heart icon when I need one)

Behold... Skechers D-Lites Golden Panda in Black.

If you are not animal prints kind of girl, why not try D-Lites Flourish in White?

Of course, their designs are not limited to these 3 only,
I saw plenty more designs with different materials on Skechers official site,
I shall check them out one by one and go crazy in front of my laptop. 
If you are a petite, D-Lites is design with an 1.25 inch of inner sole,
I could wear this ALL DAY.

Hope this blogpost can give you guys a lil more info about this beauty,
I really gotta get a pair of Wild Panda for myself.
But for now, window shopping sounds wonderful.................... T_T

Haul pt 1

Aloha beautiful humans!
I wish y'all having a great day ahead although it's already 3pm (GMT +8) in the afternoon and half of your day gone without any notice.
It's okay being guilty as today is the glorious Saturday.

 

Photo by knowyourmeme 

A lil nasty but grow a pair of o-glorious wings and break free like that sumo dude. 

Today is a day that my inspiration hits me hard during my brunch time. 

Imma do a haul post - about my shoe obsessions. 

I have like...... 87364298194 pairs of shoes,  *no judging and no kidding*

but I only wear a few pairs, the others are eating dust.. I don't know and I'm sorry.

#1 Reebok SubLite Run in Purple 

A beauty isn't?

I got dem twins at Royal Sporting House in Bangsar Mall. 

If they had the black one I'll definitely get the black one, but never mind. Purple just gets better and better.

I figured out that it's better to get a pair of stylish running shoe cuz I can run in them and also hang out in them. 

No point getting 2 different pairs to suit the occasions. 

(RE: I'm a student, I don't have any income, and I'm like a frog in a warm pool of GST) 

I usually pair this twins with almost every outfit, 

a dress for a date, 

any top with a pair of jeans, 

sweaters and shorts/skirts. 

They are very versatile and I'm glad I got the purple pair, 

It's not too dull (unless you are a black/white only kind of humans) and really easy to match with any colours. Especially yellow. 

#2 Rubi ethnic/boho pointy flats with ankle strap

One of my favourite everday flats from my fav Aussie brand. 

I really like the weaving patterns at the tip and at the back of this flats. 

Really unique and goes well with simple styling. 

I usually wear this when I'm heading out to the mall or for casual occasions, 

a sheer or plain top with a pair of black/white jeans,

an ethnic/boho sundress, 

an ethnic/boho top with shorts. 

The design and pattern is strong and a lil edgy, but also bringing out the femininity. 

Huge thanks to the ankle strap! (I'm a lil bias towards flats with ankle straps)

That's why it made into the list. 

#3 Rubi Sadie laser cut slipper in White 

My sister bought this home one day and it hit me just right there. 

The design is simple and a little boyish, 

which can neutralize any ver-the-top-girlish-outfit. 

Since this pair of footwear is in white, 

it can instantly brighten up my overall appearance, especially when I'm pairing with clothes in darker colours. 

I usually wear this pair to college or any casual occasion that requires a lot of walking or big movements, (you can identify I wear this often by looking at the crumpled area)

basically it goes well with any style and it's suitable all year round. 

So, no worries that it will go outdated someday.

#4 Rubi ethnic stripes strap sandals

I bought this with my sister last year for the Chinese New Year.
New year, new shoes.
It's really comfortable to wear because my feet is not sweating and the sandals won't stink (unless you step into a pile of poo, I'm sorry and remember to buy Toto/magnum/da ma cai).
This pair of sandals is my very first ethnic print item during my obsession for ethnic style and I value it a lot.
I wear this to college often and just match it with simple outfit style,
any top with a pair of jeans, 
a simple plain sundress mainly in white or reddish pastel colours, 
loose top and shorts mainly to the beach or park. 
It's really hot (all year round) in Malaysia and strap sandals is a wiser choice to slip in when walking under the boiling sun, in style.

#5 Converse low rise in Cream

As mentioned in previous post,
I'm a SUCKER for Converse.
I have 2 pairs of them, one is this and another pair in in red high rise.
But I think this cream colour sneaker are more versatile and matches with more of my outfit than the red ones.
Maybe because of the neutral colour, or maybe it's in cream colour.
I like yellow, and cream is really, really, really pale yellow.
I like wearing this in just any casual occasions and to the college - except shoe shopping.
Matching this with my outfit makes me looks casual-not-laid-back and like an easy-going kind of person,
any top with a pair of jeans or shorts (again), 
a sundress (again). 
The best thing about this is also because is blends well with almost every colour and does not make your colour combination go overboard.
Converse always slays it.

#6 Jane Holli pointy pumps in Beige

The one and only pair of heels that I consider myself go often in it.
I got this because some mood swing or one of the Japanese magazine hit me,
Beige heels are actually quite useful and easy to play with.
I can wear this with formal office wear, 
or when I am feeling a lil sexy - sweetheart neckline tube top with skinny jeans/jumpsuits, 
or any top with a pair of skinnys (again), 
or in any outfit for date/luncheons/formal attending like wedding dinner. 
One and only air of heels, but useful in my everyday life.

So these 6 pairs of apparels are basically my everyday footwear, although I have only a pair of feet.
Get your choice right, and you won't need to get a few more pairs of unnecessary... or not.

Sassy

Dear human, hello again.
I finally found a small hobby to enjoy during my semester break - marathon.
Yes and no, a marathon.
It's a no because it's not the running and sweating marathon that turn my toe nail into blue black colour,
it's a yes because it's a TV MARATHON.
OBVIOUSLY.

 Photo from dumpaday

Yes. A TV marathon.
I don't understand why US series has to be so short, like only a few episode and I have to wait for like a year later for the second season - and this is how the loop keeps going on and on and on.
You know, I'm a 'season per day' kinda human.

My words to live by in case you didn't notice.
Recently I'm HOOKED to a series called 'Empire.'
OH MY GAWD IT'S ONE HELLA A DRAMA ALRIGHT.

Photo by Fox

Everything is like a dramatic drama.
The cast, the storyline, even the music!
OMG they got Timbaland as the music producer,
every track is on point and I'm like "hit the damn repeat button" foreverrrrrrr.
My favourite character is definitely NOT Anika or Lucious or Andre.
Andre is like EWWWWW and his wife - DOUBLE EWWWWW.

I like Cookie Lyon. 

She's bold, fearless, speaks her mind out, and her unapologetic attitude really makes me like her a lot. 

I mean, who can actually be like her in real life? 

Fierce and sassy as hell! 

 

Photo by medamenoir 

And really, 

who can actually rock bold prints, fur, blings and heels like her? 

She wearing everything in leopard print are basically my fav~ 

It's just so Cookie Lyon!

Fierce and loud, just like her character. 

Probably inspired by the music divas Diana Ross, Mary J. Blige and Beyonce, 

Cookie's style is on-point! 

She really rock those bold prints like a #BOSS. 

She can even be chic if she wanted to. 

I search up the Internet and her looks are also inspired by Balmain, Gucci, YSL and Prada. 

No surprise, these big names are killing it! 

Well, 

my style are quite simple actually, 

but I would really love to add some statements in my daily clothing choice. 

Leopard print and gold accessories are my recent favs. 

I'm definitely eager to experiment these favs.

A little bit about me

So last night I said I will/might post an ootd of me wearing ALL WHITE.
I'm sorry. I LIED.

Photo by giphy

I'm sorry.
I'm currently enjoying my semester break and I'm just really, really lazy to dress up or even put on make up.
My biggest interest now is just eat and sleep. Occasionally playing ukulele or guitar.
Unproductive at its finest.

Photo by joyreactor 

Anyway,
how about let me introduce my style a bit.
I'm keen in girly chic.
Girly or lady-like, clean, simple, and colourful.
Does not look too childish, and not too mature too.

Photo by polywore 

I'm not a big fan of black, but this combination is simple and chic. Love it!

Photo by polywore

YESSSSSSSSSSS. I love this, sporty, girly and bright! Grey and pink are always perf.

Photo by polywore

Yellow is ALWAYS ma thang. Feel like wearing this to some music festivals.

Photo by polywore

I'm a Converse kind of girl and I'm a SUCKER for Converse.

Well, that's pretty much about me, although there are a lot more to disclose.
Gotta get my ass up and take some ootd.

With love,

uweng
