Street Style





You'd probably judge me if I told you how this outfit came about but I'm gona share anw hehe. I bought this scarf from HnM in HK on the very first day that I arrived cause it was on sale and well, who can resist a sale? I bought it thinking that it might go well with a plain dress but then I changed my mind because I figured I'd looked too 'pulled down'. One thing about being petite is that you don't want to wear clothes that would make you look shorter than you alr are. Wearing a super chunky scarf with a dress has that effect, especially if you have a longer torso than legs (like me)


Being the stubborn person that I am, I just wanted to wear the scarf cause I thought it was pretty. So the way to solve it is to go with tight jeans. And you can't wear it with anything else that is bulky (like a bulky coat) cause you'll just look really heavy. Which explains why I wore my leather jacket to go with it. So yes, while being petite means you are don't have the liberty of experimenting with all kinds of style, it doesn't mean it should stop you. In fact, I kind of like this look!

Wild and Young


Presenting to you one of the many outfits I had planned for the winter season wayyyyyy before this trip.

If you've been following my blog, you'd know that I seldom buy on impulse and would have thought through what I would wear (inserts apparel I'm gng to buy) with. And that's why I bought this dress from Elska. I thought that the colour and flare of the dress is really apt for the winter season, especially when it's paired with a leather jacket! And of course I bought the pair of booties cause I thought it would complete the outfit. So I guess you could say that this outfit was really 'put together' (:

As for the beanie, I bought it from Mongkok on my first day in HK. And the best part is, it only cost $5 (say whaaaaaaat). I've always been a fan of experimenting with looks which explains why I sometimes buy items that doesn't really reflect my personality. I dress up on how I want to be seen that day/ how I'm feeling. I just think it's a really fun way to express my emotions for that day! And for this outfit, I was leaning towards feeling edgy. Anywho, a black ring to top it off and I'm set for a day of shopping!

Black Joggers and Slip Ons


Chanced upon this hidden corner when Heyse and I were lost in Mongkok. Not exactly lost but we were wandering around trying to follow Google Map. Travelling with your friend has got to be the best thing ever cause you can afford to get lost/wander and not panic haha!

I am so happy to have found the perfect pair of leather joggers! I got this pair from Topshop under the Petite section and it's really a lot more short. They do have the regular one as well but it looks really long. Probably for those above 1.65m. The problem with buying joggers is that you can't alter it so you really have to find the one with a perfect length for you. Check out Topshop is you want to get one!

And I can't help but smile/laugh/giggle over the pair of shoes I'm wearing. I got them from F21 in HK and they may look like normal loafers but they're actually slip ons. Think of a cross between flip flops and loafers. Heyse and I both bought it because it was so interesting! And of course, super convenient.  

As for my bag, I got it from Ete, I.T in HK as well! I.T is having a crazy sale and i got the bag at an insane discount! So much love for HK and I can't wait to explore it even more!

Funk

 
 
 
 
 
 

I'm really really happy cause I survived a week of grueling promos and am still going strong. Well emotionally. I'm actually down with a flu now ): Not the best time to fall ill but it's ok! Staying optimistic cause there's only 2 papers left!

So I wore this out for brunch with my family last Sunday which I'll blog about soon! My dad and aunt are back in HK alr nooooooo. Ok back to this hahaha. So my friends have told me that they nvr expected me to dress like this hehe. Then they said smth along the lines of "but you're Angie and you change your style everyday". My friends know me so well.

This crop top has been lying in my wardrobe since forever. The tag was still on when I saw it so I decided that it's time to wear it out. Paired it with a pair of shorts for a different kind of look. Normally I would pair it with a skirt but I felt funky that day HAHAHA. This pair of shorts reminded me of a painting. You know the effect water colour pencils have? It reminds me of it. Really simple and pretty. If you're someone like me who don't like to reveal too much, throw on a vest and you're ready to go!

Shoes wise, I tend to wear heels when I'm out with my family cause they can drive me around and I don't have to worry about falling every 5 mins on a bus/train. Wore my nude wedges simple cause my other heels won't match which reminds me, I need more heels hehe. I'm gng to be studying again real soon but a day closer to promos =  a day closer to freedom right? (:

50 Shades of Blue

Been studying History for the past 4h and my head is about to explode. So much facts stored in there hahaha! But I'll nvr hate studying History cause I really love the subject and I actually enjoy the process of studying it. Sounds really nerdy but History is actually interesting :D

Well we all need a break right? I've reached the point where I know I won't be able to memorise anything so I might as well stop studying. Thought it would be nice and relaxing to blog while listening to music. Really random but I've been listening to a lot of Chinese songs and my sister was making fun of me. She said why are you only listening to JJ now when everyone was listening 5 years back? HAHAHA!

Ok back to this post. I'm really way too tired to write much so I thought I'd do more of a picture kind of post. I've recently realised that I wear A LOT of blue and white. It isn't on purpose but I just somehow tend to end up wearing blue, white, or even both tgt! I'm going to feature those photos here. Some might have been blogged before and I honestly am not sure how many photos there are. I'm just going to hop on over to my instagram and find photos of me in those colours.

I'm not going to write where I bought my accessories and shoes from. It's going to take forever if I do so but you can drop a comment if you want to know! (:
