dress sense

i bumped into a colleague from a neighbouring department while washing hands in the wc. as she eyed me from top to toe, she made some comments on how i was dressed in blacks, a lot. i told her black was a very easy colour to match, especially when it comes to black slacks or black cardigan, or black hair even.

then she said "aiyo, amoi! you manyak slim, cantik dan muda lagi... mestilah pakai colour-colour lain!" for awhile there, i didn't know how to interpret her comment. the first part sounded like a compliment. but the latter sounded as if i have limited colours/clothes in my wardrobe, which also sounded like an insult.

i always thought i had considerably OK dress sense. while i don't have the moolah to buy each lovely dress i set my eyes on, i do try to wear classy pieces hopefully to suit the occasion. if you were to see me on the street, i wouldn't stand out too much coz my clothes ain't loud nor too outdated. i would probably look like one of those young urban yuppie trying to make an impression in the office! :D

i daresay my taste is quite good for i've received compliments before. so therefore, this was a strange comment. since i do not know how to make of it, i will take it as a constructive comment.

now... who's game for some shopping? hehe....
