BLEU?

December 13, 2008 | |

Did I promise on this space that I’d cease wearing black-and-white combo again?

I certainly did break the vows again— the spirit of colors has left my body, I suppose. My boss, a few colleagues and I were back at 95 percent to listen to a talk on new trends in advertising today. A portion of the talk was taken up by the screening of online adverts, my favourite being Blendtec’s Will It Blend series.

Regarding my getup, the suspender dress held on to my body a bit too tightly that I found it rather laborous to breathe unconsciously. The bottom is high-waisted and I figured that my body isn’t as receptive to the trend as I hoped it would be. It’s a fine dress to wear only when I’m on my feet; but the moment I sit, all hell breaks loose.

But I do love the color of my heels— they’re the sweetest baby blue which contrasts well with the boring b&w. And speaking of b&w, I should really scratch the combo out of my closet. Well, that certainly leaves some space for some good old resolution next year!

PS The shopping and movie trips with my mother had been tremendous fun today. I was lucky enough to scour a well-tailored Miss Code blazer in calm gray with a 50% discount!
