10 | Style

OMG cannot believe, okay I can, that I just spent the past 4hrs =.= looking at styles on different blogs and youtube and all. I didn't even watch a show, it was literally doing Capstone then styles all over. Wow that was quite some time.

Okay so the main topic I really want to talk about, style. As I have mentioned previously I'm from an engineering school. What that means in real life is that most of my colleagues in university cant be bothered or dont care about how they dress. If I see another hundreds shorts and tee pairing over my last month in schoo, it is going to be no surprise. Being in a partial architecture school a LOT of people mistake me for being an Archi kid. Which I did consider at some point but is ironic considering most of them can barely sleep what more dress up. In total all I wanted to say is I like to dress well. There are times where I choose to dress more casually, like those Sundays I spent giving tuition. But those are well once a week....

What I really really want to talk about style though, is dressing for you. I mean trends come and go, you are hardly likely to be able to do them all. However when those styles trickle to where you usually buy clothes, all you have to do is do you. In all honesty 90+% of my clothes are not bought in Singapore, probably 90% of my everything except food... Most of them are from BKK from my yearly trips (which I think I wouldnt be able to make this yr 0.o ), however there are things in there that are naturally on point because people generally sell things that are trendy.

Through it all though you still have to find your comfort zone. Up there in the descriptor it says motorbike, and yes I am a female rider. The question I get the most about riding is "eh Syl how did you ride in that?" I mean come on, I ride a scooter it's not that hard.... Ooo this always comes up cause I love dresses and skirt.

Part of finding your comfort zone is knowing what flatters you. I'm quite fat -.- so I tend to not leave my arms bare, my skirts tend to be high waist and my dress are most likely A line. I wear a lot of leggings cause they are comfortable [:

The last thing to note though is to know what you're doing that day. So currently my timetable for school is rather heavy on Monday's and I have church classes at night. I expect to be sitting in cold rooms, with hardly any movements. Hence on Mondays I tend to dress in long pants/leggings with dress shirts/long shirts. In general I know I freeze a lot in class, so I hardly ever leave the house without some form of jacket that I can use to layer up.

In general this post is rather haphazard. Probably because it's 3am and I should totally be sleeping. I really want to start documenting how I dress, but I'm kinda lazy to set up my camera and it's not like I have a friendly photographer friend who would do it for me.... If I do set it up.... Here are some selfies that are not really meant to showcase outfits but do give a flavor of how i dress... I love blue btw, it weirdly started during my MJC days where I wear blue to sch everyday.... Oooo an my hair is black to blue/green, its getting greener by every wash, which washes me out. :p
