Outfit of the day: snow or green?

Brrr, still freezing cold outside. You don't hear me complain, I don't suffer that hard from this icy temperature. 
(Still learning under this sheepishly blanket with the heating to the maximum.) 
Altough the landscape has to be green, I think it's rather charming covered under this snowwhite blanket.

Long time ago, I was playing out there, romping around with the snowflakes, making this cute snowman while I could barely breath due to the superplus clothes-scarf-beanie. Haaa those times, I would love to turn back the time. Between this nostalgic thoughts I couldn't lack taking some quick outfit-pictures while the snow was still on, right?

Like I said, the landscape is white, so let's fill in the green-less nature with some green knits. Actually, green is my favourite color. From mint, to grass, to peacock or khaki. Name it and I love it. Da vinci was the first to define it as 'juvenility, spring, power, autonomy and peace'. Sounds like defining worths for myself, maybe thatz why I love it?

Anywayz, don't mind the sleepy head, I wasn't that long awake and during exams I'm rather light-intolerant, looks like the light was pretty intense, extra projected on this white floor.

NEW IN: essential sales

I'm glad my exam went well today. The next is in 5 days, so I could afford to rest a bit: tradition wise forgetting my school-worries with a nice portion of sushi, hunting the last good deals of sales: thatz how we roll it. 

A golden headliner in the tips for scoring sales is probably scoring basics. Seasons fly, and so does the current collection. But hey, sin ain't not a crime! Altough I won't say my closet is empty, new clothes stay fun. Whether they are following a current trend, whether they're just simple. In this case 'less is more', does not hold good. Guess that's what typifies the women. Back to my point; we rather spend money on fresh and trendy clothes than on good basics. (or that's what I prefer.) 

Thinking about what to wear, and concluding that you miss THE essential piece to fulfill this perfect outfit in mind. I hate this feeling. So based on this issue, I made a wise choice and went hunting this essential pieces. Essential not because they're required in a standard closet (think:LBD, comfy warm pullover, perfect jeans,...), essential to get around the fact I can't combine some specific pieces to wear them parallel to my mind-based-look. 

I missed: 
1 a simple black pair of legging-pants that could go for a pants (not those who reveal your asscrack...) 
2 black shirt blouses (!!!) 
3 a simple shirt in a neutral color to combine with several necklaces 
4 a special pants (not just 'that' jeans)

I found: 
1 my legging (after trying out a lottttt) 
2 I let myself go lose: 3 pieces 
3 simple because it doesn't have a motif, just glitz 
5 a sequin blazer & belt: just because it can 

I still miss: 
4 the special pants. 
Seriously, I don't exaggerate when I tell you I tried on at least 20 pieces. No perfect match, looks like mission impossible?! Too narrow or too short, especially too short. A long piece looks an ankle piece and an ankle piece looks 3/4 on me. Okay 1m80 isn't that small, but hey I'm not a special exception, am I? There are a lot of girls with long legs imo, so pleaseeeeee think about this you damned clothing makers!

The catches: 

 


Did you find all the things you wanted in sales? Ever had problem with short pants?
