khaki shift dress

Khaki dress... all set for a relaxed day out

December is the best time of the year, no matter what we always have a 100 excuses to feel happy (no matter how broke you get at the end of it!). Well my 101 excuse is my birthday. This will be the month of shopping over load, by the end of the month I'm forced to go into a shopping detox! The dress is an awesome must have, it's not about the military green but the awesomeness of the Khadi fabric used. Honestly the outfit made no sense to me when I wore it, but along with the union jack around my neck and the boots it triggered some mean girl kinda happiness. Strangely something bought a lot of union jack inspired outfits into the market, haven't you shopaholics picked up one yet? It's every where.

Neon

She's always buzzing just like Neon, Neon, Neon

I know I've expressed my dislike for jeans many times before but I've been hording cloths in my wardrobe waiting for a sunny day to wear some of them. That stupid fear of wearing a good outfit for the wrong occasion. When my friend so graciously requested my presence at the filming of her music video I was so flustered about what to wear. She kept saying come formally dressed! Oh gosh! of all the things people say. But I said hey! Not like it really meant anything because it was happening @ urban solace, now for such an amazing place how could anyone wear formals. 

So finally when I opened my over cluttered wardrobe and found my neon top, I just had to wear it. There was something about the colour, I still remember the first time I saw a bunch of neon garments on one rail. That was a while back when I still worked for Maison, It was the happiest rail in the store. Of course I lied when I told everyone I could never carry it off. So When I found this @ soul sante I grabbed it with both hands.

So it took me a few more seconds to decide what to wear it with, naturally with the insufficient time at hand I chose to wear it with my skinny jeans and pumps (I know it such a typical cliche). So I paired it with a printed belt and over-sized clutch, also that ring I've been wearing to work almost every day. Amen! I was done...

I'm not sure what to say, really! Shorts has become this trend with these young thing (as my ex boss always referred to youngsters) do they think it's a more decent way of showing how sexy they are. Seriously I think it's an over glorified piece of clothing. However, it is a comfortable outfit, and that's exactly why men wear it all the time! That's exactly why I wear them. I've never looked at shorts and said "hey! that's so stylish let's get it", having shorts in the wardrobe is a comfort obligation. Yet I'm sure most of you women get the oxymoron of the comfortable shorts! 

Come closer, shhhh! For those who are not used to seeing me in oversized clothes, you should know I stole it from my brother. Poor thing I'm sure he doesn't even know it was meant for him, So on that bright shiny day when my mom was packing the bag of goodies to be shipped to my brother the shirt was handed over to me to be pressed! instead I wore it and paraded the house. Suddenly mom say "Why don't you just keep it!"
