Here’s a quick try, my very first hand at illustrating my outfit for today:





Dress, gift from a friend; Belt, Upstairs...the Boutique; Shoes, Clarks

I used to be fond of black during my awkward, coming-of-age days. My closet was constructed out of purely black clothes and suffice to say, I grew up feeding on black like some staple meal. But ever since I discovered the joie de vie brought on by different color palettes at the age of nineteen, I had dropped off black from my style vocabulary.

But lately, I’ve been feeling a bit sluggish— no courses to teach, no classes to go to during the college two-month break. And whenever I feel languid, black is the best option- the most reliable color so far. This was the first time that I wore my apple belt to work— I couldn’t quite capture its details on paper. I also had on my favorite Bengkel Oi velvet Dorothy heels earlier but for some reason, they had grown a size bigger. I was walking very slowly as to not trip! Because I was too flustered with my shoes as of today, I thought this effortless illustration would do.

Till next time, I’d post the real deal.
