Sorry guys
this post is way overdue. The reason why I haven’t post this up yet was because
in this episode you will see that there is lots of dark clothing and my camera
does NOT like dark colours at all. My white balance goes absolutely bonkers
with dark clothing so I was trying to get inspired for other ways of taking
outfit photos but failed miserably which led to some downtime. Therefore in most pictures here, the white
balance was thrown off scale so please forgive me for that.
I’m trying
to find new ways of taking nicer pictures so please stay with me while I play
around and improve myself!
If you guys
are new here, this is my monthly fashion haul where I showcase apparels that I
have purchase within the entire month. Sadly, there are not many items the month
of April. Okay so let’s get started with the haul!
H&M Grey Jersey T-shirt [SGD$20]
From
H&M I bought a very adorable dark gray jersey shirt. The reason I bought it
was actually because the shirt looked like something a little kid would wear so
I was sold on that. The lining is very distinct and I find it so cute and the
material is actually very high quality. It may not show on the pictures but the
shirt is of a harder material and that makes it stay in that form &
position.
Originally it was $40 but was on sale for $20. Gray shirts are
usually a big taboo for me, since I live in a desert and nobody likes sweaty
pits. But the gray was very dark and it was just too adorable to give it up. I
bought it in size 36 and it was way too big. I didn’t try it because the queue
was way too freaking long but the bagginess looks alright.
Newlook Black Peterpan Collar Lace Shift Dress
[SGD$40]
This uber
cute dress is from Newlook and I bought it on sale for $40 originally for $80.
If I remembered it correctly it was either the last or second last piece and both
did not come in a Size 10. So I made do with a Size 12 and altered 2.5 inches
off the length to make it more wearable. What sold me on this dress is because
of the collars. As you guys already know, I am a huge collar person so it was
love at first sight. The quality is nice and gold zipper works really well.
ASOS Midi Skirt [ASOS - £$12]
This midi
skirt was a very lucky purchase because it was totally sold out the next day on
ASOS. I kinda knew it was going to be like a big hit for everyone so I went
ahead and got it first. Close enough all 3 colours (black, purple, jade green)
were almost sold out the next day. I bought it in UK10 and seriously this skirt
is super tight on me. I am not a naturally curvy girl and my waist isn’t really
the tiniest out there so it may make sense. The skirt does not have a waistband
so I may have to get rid of some pounds to not have to suffer wearing it. The
quality is fabulous and the length is perfect. I am 165cm and it ends around 4
inches above the ankles.
Rare Coral Scallop Collar Dress [ASOS - £$14]
Also from
ASOS this dress was one that I bought pretty long ago. The colour on the site
was like a more washed out pastel coral colour but in real life it is more of a
in-your-face coral colour. I guess I can always wear a cardigan to tone down
the brightness. I always find that I have to alter the length of skirts or
dresses bought from western countries (River Island, warehouse, etc) because
their models are just so tall, but for this dress I do not have to. For
reference I am 165cm. I bought it in UK14 because it was the only size
available. The waist band is self-tied so I can adjust it according to the
thickness of my waist. Bright colours are always a cheerful spark in a dull
boring Monday.
Zipia Peterpan collar T-shirt [Zipia - USD$24]
I am
actually really disappointed in this top. I thought it was more of a polyester
think flowy material top but it is of a very thick, heavy material. And usually
zipia clothing sizes are really petite, maybe up to a UK size 12/14. But this
top is strangly huge and the cut is pretty unflattering. It looks like I’m
wearing my dad’s top or something. And since it is cream slightly grayish, it
shows sweat stains really well and I absolutely hate fabric which shows wet
marks. Maybe I’ll try wearing it on a cooler day instead.
So That's all folks! Stay tune for next week's May Haul!
Check out my previous monthly hauls!
