Final Outfit for 2010 - Head to Toe Stripes

It's past midnight here in the land down under, so we are officially in 2011. :)

Firstly, wishing you all a wonderful new year full of ibadah, happiness, and extra cash of course. :))

We don't really celebrate NYE. It's just an excuse for a family BBQ. :) This year it was all the girls and my brother in law.. plus my two nephews... The boys went to a friends house in the neighbourhood watching illegal fireworks all night... brother in law sa inside and watched TV... we women were in the alfresco area... it was such an ugly hot day. I mean, I love summer, sunshine, and warm weather, but this was something different. A very hot strong wind blowing all day.. and also some humidity...

Anyhow, boring boring boring... :))) Nevermind, it's the last time I will bore you in 2010. :)

A little about my outfit...

I was working today, so I came home to get dressed and thought I will do a little extra and doll myself up a little. It's a family night, so it's fine. :)))

My main piece is the head to toe sailor striped maxi dress I purchased from Sussan. To be honest, I did not even try it on. I just know I have been admiring it for a couple months. I have been feeling really down the past couple months and it's a little worse the past couple weeks. So I thought of treating myself. I said I will take it whether it looks good or not.

You know the 'myth': stripes make one look bigger. I think today I have once and for all proven that this is purely a myth! It really depends on the fabric, the way the clothing hang off your body/curves, and most importantly the thickness of the stripes. The thinner the stripes, the better!

I really thought this was going to be a disaster purchase, but I have already planned 2 different looks for this dress which I may wear this week. :))) I love the dress.... I'm also addicted to stripes lately. This week I purchased 2-3 tops from K-mart at $5 :P All stripes! I purchased an amaing high waisted skirt from Forever New also with stripes! And this dress... I have to stop!!! :)

Hmm I really didn't want to wear the deep red hijab I always wear with my navy clothing items, but I did it again! I know you are sick of it :) It's getting worn out too! I really like the way gold looks with nautical navy, but it just don't suit my face and I find the standard red too red (but Im going to wear the standard red hijab soon with this dress)... So yeah, I'm sorry but deal with it :)

Finally, I shut up and post the photos... :))))

I think the stripes actually make me look a little slimmer, don't you agree? I'm a happy camper! :))


Even though fresh, natural look make-up would look better, I just went for dramatic smokey eyes with pale face instead. :)
