We Kiss In The Shadows…

Obviously, I’m still on The King and I high thus my blog title. :) I love that song and Tanya’s version is superb! @_~

Anyway, this is what I wore on our The King and I date.

I wanted something comfy but I don’t want to be underdressed as well. Last time I went to see a play, I was all too casual that I looked like a high school girl. Hahaha..

Does my outfit looked familiar? If you regularly visit this blog I know you’d already seen me wear this LBD + jelly sandals (check it out here). And yes, if you do notice, I gave the dress a little spin by wearing it backside up. :) Those cute ruffles are too cute to be a back detail forever. I gotta give it a little limelight. But it sure makes a totally different look. Accessories really do play a big part in one’s outfit I must say.

I go easy on accessories with this look to make it more casual. I also pulled the skirt a little up to lengthen my legs and my high bun surely made my look more fresh and relaxed. I guess that’s one more major key in dressing up. Know your intended audience.

Going to have a dinner with some friends at the mall? Surely, a black dress with white undergarments and sky high heels won’t be appropriate. I don’t recall a fine dining restaurant in Greenbelt 3. Hahaha.. Maybe you could wear the dress but tone it down by wearing flats. Or just be plain simple by wearing a pair of shorts and some flats. You are with friends anyway, you need to be comfy. :)

Going to catch a film? Oh you must make sure you have your cardigan with you coz you don’t want to catch a cold. Most cinemas are freezing! So you could wear something light and carry a little cardigan or a shawl, whatever you prefer.

Going to a party? Then it’s time to bring those sky high heels some spin. Go overboard by wearing tons of sparkles. Wear your chiffon and of course those huge diamonds! :) And oh! Make sure you wear make up. Smokey eyes if you must. @_@

Going to work? Read your dress code please. You can try to be a little rascal by wearing something that’s not really usual but make sure you don’t break a rule. Jeans are no-no but if you got a pair of black soft jeans that could easily pass as a pair of slacks, by all means wear it. Just pair it up with a blazer to make it look smart. Just don’t wear too short skirt or wear a blue wig or wear a tee + cropped pants. Come on! Even on dress down days, you must always look smart.

LBD: Thrifted | Jelly Sandals: Random | Bag: Ayla | Earrings: from Len

Well I do hope you learn something from me. :) Dressing up is fun. It boost your confidence. It will make you happy. Do not be afraid to wear what you want to express yourself. I know what I wore is not always likeable. Sometimes I break all the rules of fashion but who cares? Everyday, I make sure I look good not for the people around me but for me.

P.S. Apologies for the poor photo quality. My very sweet sister put my camera to rest. Alas! Its broken and I was forced to use my phone camera. And well, though I believe my phone has a great camera I am not yet accustomed to using it. Trying out different settings. I still cannot buy a new camera so please bear with me. You’d be seeing loads of crappy photos from now on. But you love me anyway, I know that! mwah!
