Lookbook: Going casual with pastel

Dressing up is what girls love to do most. And I must say that it is one of my favourite past times. Putting on outfits to wear and coordinating them can be a hassle some times. I usually decide the night before on the colour I want to wear and then throw them together the next day hoping that I had make the right choice.

Picking colours off from my wardrobe can be very challenging. I have a variety of coloured long sleeve tees, shirts and blouses. On top of that I have to match them with a different shade of jeans everytime or pants and even skirts. And if that isn’t tricky enough, imagine having to match them with my tudung.

Light pastel colours can be very outstanding to people with medium to dark skin. So, we need to be very careful when picking them out. I am lucky enough to have most colours suiting me well.

I had planned my outfit the night before for todays outing and what I wore wasn’t the items I had picked.

 

This slight pale orangey top is very difficult to match a tudung with. On top of that, the colour seemed very striking to me. However, matching it with a dark shade of skinny jeans worked very well.

I got my orange top from a Giordano warehouse sale at only S$8 and my skinny Levi’s jeans from US at only US$16.99 (Levi’s is a rip off here in Singapore!). My tudung I managed to dig it up from one of my sister’s collection and finally, I threw in a Nine West sling bag which I bought in US at only US$20, together with Charles & Keith’s slingback flats (S$21.90). Totalling below S$100, I think I managed to pull off a colour which suits the upcoming Spring season.

One more thing, since Spring is arriving and the USD is dropping tremendously fast (it is now 1.40) it is time for us girls to get fashionably good deals from these websites.

Enjoy online shopping girls.
