Independence at 4

(Probably a justification entry)
It was fun while it lasted. These days I don’t get to choose what the 4.5yo wears anymore. Below photo was taken a couple of weekends ago. Yesterday she insisted on a shimmery pink pansy flower hairband to go with the same dress.

Red, White, Blue

One of the things I like about having a mini-collective of my own is, they become an outlet for my lunatic obsession with color-coords. Not a fan of identical getups though. It’s just colors.

1st Fred Perry

If I ever have a boy, he has to have a Fred Perry.

Black and White (and Grey)

This black shift dress from Gap caught my attention.

But I can feel the spouse rolling his eyes at it. I can feel it in my bones. I don’t know why.

Before the baby shift dresses came, there were these from my ebay addiction days:

I didn’t know they were capable of pro-creating. Probably doing it in the corners of the wardrobe.

Two Months After

I’m back at work today cos I’m breaking down my third month maternity leave to Tuesdays and Thursdays for 10 weeks so not too ‘culture-shocking’. The thing I dread most is the journey to and fro. Geographically, my workplace is not that far but because there isn’t direct transportation, it requires three transfers making the journey an hour long. I keep thinking about the things I could do with the girls at home with that two hours to and fro. Apart from that, I resent having to squeeze on to the buses with the swarm of poly kids. And driving is so not economical. I long for this:

just for the purpose of getting to and from work, you know? Can cut my journey time by half. But I don’t think the people at home would ever approve of me getting a bike license.

Modernist in Me

I’m still a mod at heart lah.

Mister and I saw this for $620 and got us hyperventilating.
