I definitely looked like I just got out of the thrift store! Ok. Maybe cooler than that. I guess?
I'm glad that today's weather had gotten cooler from that intense rain overnight! Finally, I am able to put on jacket and need not worry to get messy with sweat all over the place. Since the weather is comfortable, I decided to get comfy with my dressing too. I wore a legging and boots with a mens' top, that I just could not resist from a warehouse sale. Not forgetting my main apparel, an easygoing army jacket that can pretty much match with anything. To make myself feel more comfy, I slipped on a beanie. Secretly covering up all those messy fizzy hair that I have. Well, it's not initial intention, but I just got the vibe of a thrift store girl! It's kind of cool since there aren't much thrift stores around Singapore.

It's a simple evening. I had dinner with my boyfriend and later some ice-cream. Did some shopping at the nearby malls and ended at Starbucks where we both played games on our phones and chat about random things. Just one of those good old days that we live things slow, reminiscing on how great if life can just goes on this way before Monday steps in with hectic workloads.

Well, talking about my "thrifted" look, I stumbled upon this song by Bacchanal Party. Enjoy some Thrift Store Metaphor!

Complete Surrender





Hat ∆ Roxy
Dress ∆ Topshop
Denim Jacket ∆ Thrift Store
Boots ∆ Sperry
Bag ∆ Lowry's Farm

In order to dress according to the weather conditions, I tried to put on a simple aztec monochrome skater dress and bring along my denim jacket, which I bought off at a Thrift Shop new2you a few years back, in case some malls are cold or when the night temperature drops. I matched them with a simple boots and a top hat to complete my look. And off I'm out to meet up with my bestie for dinner!

Recently the weather has been very unpredictable. It has always been very hot and humid in the noon and the night suddenly becomes cold or just still air. There won't be rain for a few days and suddenly, it starts to pour crazily for the whole day or one of those kinds that I hated most, the passing rain which lasted for 5 minutes. Even if it rained, it did not help to cool the temperature, it just seems like the sky got clearer for the sun rays to penetrate through more profusely. The weather these days pretty much seems like it is going through mood swings. Come to think of it, what am I to complain when Singapore is just so blessed to be rid of all those natural disasters?

This song explained my thoughts and had inspired my look. It's Complete Surrender by Slow Club.
