MIRACLE OF LIFE


As I see myself in front of the mirror, I saw a hideous sagging skin and a protruding tummy  in front of me. As I'm about to slap my face to wake me up from this dream, someone hit me from behind, I turned around and saw an angel giggling. His eyes were set on my tummy, then he touches it, feels it and spank it! The world started to spin around me, in rapid motion, as fast as it could. Then it stopped.A little boy dressed in all white pajama, stares at me, his smile resembles mine, his eyes looks like the man I married. He tiptoes his feet and reaches for my arms. His mouth opens and says "Maaammaaa". And I'm back in the real world.


While some women is gifted with exceptional skin elasticity, I am one of the MANY to the exceptions. It kinda frustrate me when I tried so many poses and ends up deleting almost all the shots because I can't force the camera lens to lie.When I have to wear something special inside to conceal "this thing" from sticking out from the blue cotton dress I excitedly brought home. How I miss flaunting in bikini top when I am as thin as a stick and my tummy is as flat as the piece of paper, ooohhh man!, those were the days (sigh). I don't scare you. It's one of the things you have to look forward to when you reach the phase of motherhood.Reality bites.But the bonus comes after the "sagging" though, you have a cute little angels and a big boy in your life :)

 
Don't mind the bulges you see. It's a wonder of life :)

WHITE MEN'S SHIRT

I am inspired to create an outfit over a men's basic white shirt. So I dig my closet for the perfect pants and found my sister's gift to me - a harlem trouser. Such an ideal piece to start with the look I wanted. Nothing fancy. Just simple and casual in unconventional way.

To give the top a touch of femininity, I folded the sleeves up to the length the usual women's shirt has and tucked the shirt in. I don't like to look like a school boy so I accessorize by wearing a beaded chandelier earrings, a gold cuff to match with my gold skinny belt, a wedge and bold red-orange lipstick. This time I stick to neutrals to keep the look simple yet stunning in effortlessly way (did I? :) ).


 

The sky is getting dark and waiting for the rain to fall.
And same with my husband killing time on my office's hall. I got to go, I can hear his shoes tapping :)
