Running (Wo)man

Just a quick post for today. I still have to decide the prices on the accessories that I'll be selling this Saturday... well, technically it wouldn't be me who's selling but a sister of my friend. She graciously allowed my accessories to be included in their merchandise.

Ok, back to the real story. The title involves me dashing like an Olympic runner when I was about to go home. Normally, there isn't too many people waiting in line at the taxi stand near our building. However, this week is quite different.  For some unknown reason, the people lining up starting Monday tripled so the usual 10 minute wait for a taxi became 30-40 minutes.

So today, thinking that I have something to do at home, I packed my things and went downstairs immediately. I saw from a distance that the line is not yet long so I chit chat with my officemate at the building lobby. However, as soon as I turned my head, a (huge) group of people were walking fast towards the line! So I instinctly dashed off and run towards it! I swear, I think I left my dignity & poise at the building lobby! :P I didn't even say a proper goodbye to my officemate hehe (I hope she's not mad). My 4 other officemates who are already in the line laughed at me. They said that when they saw me running, some of those who behind me also ran :D Well, I beat them to the finish line (as if there's really a race going on!)

Just a funny (to me anyway) story for today. Here's my outfit for today (not exactly ideal for running):

Brown & blue paisley print top, bangle: Landmark, Pencil cut skirt: SM Department Store, shoes: Shubizz

On Mute

Bright colors is the current trend, but I decided to go against the grain for my outfit today. I was just way too lazy to iron clothes... I slept late because I was watching another Korean Drama (49 Days) so I only have a few hours of sleep :( I searched high and low for items in my closet that didn't need any ironing :P Good thing, when I found the top and skirt, they somehow matched (they're meant to be together :P). The colors are muted green & pink :)

Also, to boost my spirit today, I visited the year-round bazaar located near our office (temptation is always near...) and I was able to bought 2 dresses for only P150($3) each! They don't look cheap at all (to me anyway). I'll post it here as soon as I'm able to take pictures of the items.

So here's my outfit for today. By the way, the Item for the Day is the accessory I wore today. I made it myself a few months back. The color is monochromatic (shades of brown) which I think matches with a lot of different items in my closet.

Top: thrifted, skirt: Korean brand skirt bought at a bazaar, shoes: Shubizz, bangles: weaved; bought at a bazaar, necklace: I made it :)

Here's an up close pic of the necklace... it's casual looking but I love the handmade feel to it.
