A girl with a short skirt and a looooooooooong jacket

I wore this a week ago when I had to go to work during a holiday. And I just have to say that I was very eager to go to work even though it meant sacrificing a day where I could just spend it at home watching television or reading (aka lounging around). It was a chance to dress up so dress up I did.

Technically what I'm wearing here isn't really a short skirt, it's a dress. And I don't even know if my outerwear is really a jacket, a cape, or whatever. It might even be a dress, as my mom believed it was when she bought it. But whatever it is, I just love its bright pink color and how easily it "goes with the flow". :))

boots - a gift: from Japan, necklace - a gift: Papemelroti

That's it! Thanks to my boss for taking the photos, hihi. Gotta get back to work. :D

Ch-ch-ch-changes

So I also wasn’t wearing my uniform last Friday. I had to attend a birthday party after work and to be practical, I decided to just go the smart casual route and skip the uniform. (Actually I wore my after-office clothes going to work and just changed into a more office-appropriate cardigan and high heels.)

 Very basic and work-friendly. I'm even wearing my I.D.!

 Post-office hours, I changed into a:

Denim jacket - Market Market

Boots - given by my mom, from Japan

 And a party hat!

One is never too old to wear a party hat :D

Dark and sweet, and another shoe story

My colleagues and I attended another colleague’s son’s christening last Sunday. The weather was so unpredictable that day so I had to wear my ever so trusty boots. At the same time it was a christening so I had to stay away from black. Here is the result:

An eyelet dress from Divi, tights, and boots from Japan

The boots were given by my mom. She bought them in Japan when she had to attend a workshop/training last March. It was supposedly their last night in Japan when the BIG ONE happened. When I learned of what happened, I thought that it would all be enough that my mom come home safely. I won’t care for the boots and the other pasalubong. But she was calm enough to still remember the boots despite the aftershocks, the delayed flight, and the hurly-burly going to and at the airport, so I treasure them dearly.

Oh, here are some of my colleagues/friends/travel buddies!

This one here is Mia, a photography enthusiast and blogger.

 And this one is the forever young Irene!

I wanna thank them for taking my pictures. <3
