i miss my doodoo, and i'm obsessed with rompers.

i just blew $105 on a basic dark grey romper that is brandless, but self-designed and sown by some random designer in australia.

the only thing that i have to justify it is the fact that it has a very low scoop back, and ruffles all around collar from the front, and down to the back. PLUS. i am so mad about rompers now that i actually find myself hesitating when looking at dresses.

just last week i was chattin' up with mel and as we spoke and tried to come up with words to describe my choices of clothing, i finally found a word that could describe my dressing. contradictory. eg. casual but not too casual, cute but not too cute, feminine but yet one can't exactly say it really is explicitly feminine.

HAHA. what a discovery.

also, while i'm into rompers and shorts and casual yet not too casual blablas, mom handed me her approx 14-year old gucci shopper tote! XD was never mad about gucci, and this mid 1990s design with the regular gucci monogram in its usual shades of brown and signature striped green-red cloth straps is what i would call a plain tote. but what makes it special to me is that it brings with it all the charm that sentimental goodies bring (at one point in time, mommy used this with love and now she's giving it specially to me! and it's a bag i used to see her carry when i was a kid.), so yes - it shines so very brightly in my heart. i have decided to carry it with my lace-up back shorts and knitted beige tank as soon as i wear those. heheh. i also joked with my brother that if he was a girl (and my sister), my mom would have to find 2 bags so she could give one to each of us :X teehee!
