Blue lady

See that terrible scrunched up face?

For all my happy moods, I can sometimes get awful grumpy. It's an awful affliction I've had since childhood.

No, really.

But in the case of this blog post, I wasn't actually grumpy at all--I just didn't know what pose to get into! Yes, I was pretty frocked out.

Anyway, I really love this dress. It was one of my first online purchases almost two years ago now, from one of the very first online dress sites in Malaysia (that I knew of at the time), Shopaholics Unite!

(in case you're wondering, yes, the chest area does yawn open a bit--I keep meaning to sew it up but I keep forgetting! I will snap to it this Friday night and close the gaps, if only so the guy sitting next to me stops letting his eyes wander. But it's not his fault, really, I imagine.)

Somehow, with a wraparound dress as ladylike as this, only ladylike jewelry will do. This lovely cameo necklace I picked up from the Accessorize warehouse on Bridge Road in Melbourne--three pieces for AU$10!

And at the risk of being terribly matchy-matchy, only cute, ladylike shoes would do the classic-ish outfit justice. These lovely heeled brogues I picked up at--of all places--the Bata warehouse in Subang Parade!

Now share with me, dear reader, where are your favourite warehouses, and why?
