Mayy's Closet #77

This closet post brings the closet segment to the same level as food finds! Thankfully, I can say my shoestoppers havent reached that. Because if it did, we would have a slight issue on our hands... or rather, I would have a slight issue. With my conscience (I sometimes pretend to be guilty but truthfully I love my shoes), and my parentals.

Anyhow, this outfit was worn during a week where I wore my whites. Yesyes, my ocd with laundry issues surfaces.

Nothing too girly since I wore combat booties heels. But perfect for the start of spring! I got the pink floral printed top from Cotton On last year in Singapore and never got round to wearing it until recently. The white cutout trimmed skirt has been worn once before and only my second time wearing it. I love it! I got it from City Beach and the brand is Moolala.

The exposure is pretty bad in this photo so the next photo will bring us closer to their true colours.

No surprises for guessing why I got the top because I love the cut-out back detail. But really, I like the tiny floral prints because big prints can be SO overwhelming on a shorter girl (I dont dare claim I'm petite or small!) And the white skirt, well, the trimmed hemline is surely quite interesting!

"Florals for spring, how groundbreaking..." (Yes, Miranda I hear you.)

Mayy's Closet #62

How did your weekend go? Hope y'all had a better one than I did! Although I think I had a pretty good one. In terms of luck and blessings. Saturday night was spent with the girls once again at their place, this time watching part 1 of Deathly Hallows. Yummy food cooked by Shiyu and Anna both! Sunday was spent dropping off clothes for sale to this girl living pretty far away but I really wanted to sell so yeah. After that, met up with Brandon and Jian Hann at Northbridge for dimsum at Golden Century. The biggest thing happened to me there...but let's just say there are really some kind souls in the world out there and I am very very blessed to come across one. So be kind y'all! Karma karma karma.

Alright, back to clothes. Now that I have set up my own personal page, Mayy's Closet and waiting on new clothes to arrive so I can post them up, I find myself spending more time on fb. Quite distracting to my uni work I would say. UH OH. But at the same time, I am pushing myself to really look at my wardrobe and say which ones NEED to go and which can stay. Here is a top that will be staying for a very long while....

This black butterfly-sleeved top is from the brand Moolala which can be purchased from City Beach. I got it in Harbourtown for about AUD29? I was hesitating back then but I knew I had to despite the slightly high price tag.

I love the simplicity and comfiness of the style and material. Perfect for summer, spring, autumn and I wore it in winter. Slightly wrong weather but yeah. Ive had it for about a year now before I wore it for the first time. I know I know, I really don't know what's wrong with me ok.

Love the pink and grey painting like feathers as the design front. Think the whole idea here is to portray like a bird or something, with wings! Can you see it?

So in the mood to be partying! Here's a dress I bought last summer from City Beach in Harbourtown at AUD29. I think the brand is Moolala. Wore it out once during a Saturday night out in Perth. The size is not perfect for me but I refused to leave it in the shops. The shoulders were alittle too wide. BUT it has got to come home with me.

I love the mesh sides and mesh deep V plunging neckline. The back ends in a very low V bare back. I totally forgot to take a photo of it! But perhaps when I wear it again, I will. I think sis and mum saw the photo and think it to be a little too revealing. Er no, the bits are all covered and the dress is long enough too. I had a real good night in it.

I also don't have the orangey coral colour in my wardrobe. Something different! I paired it with the sequinned Rubi Shoestopper #4 and a silver clutch from Portsman. Instead of leaving my hair down like I always do, I put it up in a cheerleader high ponytail. Pile on the black rubber bracelets. Eyeliner, mascara and silver glitter on the eyes. We are all set now!

Mayy's Closet #12

Hello, it is Monday! Are you part of the majority suffering from Monday blues every week? Well, I am usually looking forward to having something to do and going back to uni...though, it is abit much this semester. Anyhow, something to lift my spirits during my stats class right now...blogging. Photo credits: mayydiaries.blogspot.com
It is going to 33/34 degrees today but this morning when I went out of the house, the wind was blowing hard and cold. Brrrrrrrrrr. Sure do wish it remained like that through the day and I would have to do a wardrobe switch soon! All the coats and leggings and boots. Fun.

BACK to the photo, yet another pair of denim shorts which I got very long ago and I vaguely recall that I MIGHT have gotten it from FOS in Malaysia? It is comfortable though and of a thinner denim material than the Dotti one. It is back in Singapore now and I take it along to me for holidays on cruise or to Bangkok. I really bought it more for the fact that it could fit me and not restrict my thighs. It was a comfort buy!

The top is something a little more different. It is from Roxy girls, so yeah the kids/teens section again. I really like the shade of green and how the white pops against it. The hem of the top is also something different and I liked the crisscross detail on the back of it. I can't post a photo of the back details up because I've lost it and also given this top away so I can't take another one. I paired it with a cropped white cardigan even though it was such a hot January back then. Somehow I could take the heat then. Weird. I've had this top for ages and only really worn it 3/4 times. It looked brand new still when I decided to give it up.

The straw trilby hat is from Billabong, City Beach in Harbourtown. My cousin Celest bought it for me when she was here during a work trip and we went out shopping. I remember wearing it on the day I took this photo and the hat blew off the top of my head when I was walking in uni. Oops and slightly embarassing. Funny though!

Shoestopper #4

'Tis the season to be sparkly
Fa la la la la...

Ain't those shoes look just PERFECT for the festive season? I thought they were and bought them in Rubi Harbourtown. Never mind the fact that it was one size too small. My feet could fit in pretty well and it did not hurt at all for the ten seconds I tried them on.

Not just for the festive season, I thought it will go well with most of my dresses for nights out. So for just AUD5, I handed over my card to pay for it with the rest of the purchases (gifts for my godma and mum, not me!).

I wore them out for my last Saturday in Perth. Dinner at Positano's in Northbridge and Metros after with Anna, Li Jia, Geoff, Murdoch and Johann. Dinner at Positano's was alright, but we were all so so starved and impatient with the incredibly slow service.

Here's the dress I wore the shoes with:

It's from City Beach by Moolala or something like that. Ends in a deep V at the back of the dress. Loves it! Unfortunately, they were not my most comfortable outfit to date. The shoes hurt so much after 3/4 hours in them because my feet had no place to breathe. Ouch, I brought it back with me to Singapore in hope for finding a solution to this. Or else, it's up for grabs. Anyone want? It's a size 37. ;)

Till my next shoe-stopping experience, Mayy xo
