but i dont want to be caught wearing the same shirt thrice, or even twice, in that same week.. im not saying its wrong. but i would prefer not to.
this is the problem of going to a tertiary school. you can literally waste half an hour thinking of what to wear for the next day. well, at least for me. i would first scan through the whatever choices i have.. (i colour-coded my wardrobe btw. hah.) then i would pick a top according to my mood or the timetable for the next day.. (whether its gonna be a long day, or just a 3 hour session).. and then after picking, i would start to contemplate. then i would start wishing that i had more choices.. i would then shift my attention to the next wardrobe available (my sis's), and when i am in desperate need for choices, i'll go to the wardrobe in the master room (my mum's). 99.9% of the time, i'll return to my wardrobe.
besides tops, a girl can also never have enough bags, earrings (for me at least), make-up products, lingerie and shoes. but i think i had enough of shoes. when i was working, i think i bought an average of 2 shoes per month... all of which are heels. my fetish for peep toe heels and pointed pumps is like my fetish for chocolate fudge cake. now i rarely wear them because i dont exactly like wearing heels to school. as mentioned, im better off in slippers or birkinstocks. i seriously dont want to look and feel corporate when im in school, and i would rather go bare-footed when im sitting for a test.
so why this issue about slippers being too sloppy? an article in "lifestyle" today talks about the slipper trend in sg and there were obviously two sides to it, some say slippers are perfect for hot weather and the other side were against slippers in restaurants, schools and some other places. seriously whats wrong with wearing slippers to school? i am fully aware that some polytechnics do not encourage students to wear slippers.. but unless you're giving a formal presentation or going to play sports or going into a science lab to do experiments, i dont see why one cant wear slippers to campus.
the most interesting part of the article was a comment by a reader, who mentioned that there are double standards to this slipper issue. girls who wear slippers are considered as casual but men who walks around in slippers are deemed as sloppy. secretly i agree with her.
all this talk about slippers is tempting me to get a new pair as soon as i get the moolahs. ive been eyeing some pairs for quite some time now. mhahaha..
