Something I seldom do is to wear colors on Monday, except blue coz I love playing along with the 'Monday Blues' brouhahas. And today, instead of wearing blue I took on another hue in the color wheel - purple, to give a shot of fun to the otherwise plain start of the week. It seems that whenever I wear purple, my cliques always went 'ooh, purple!' here, 'wah, purple!' there, 'ooh, purple!' at the pantry, 'whoa, purple!' at the lift. Indeed it's one color that brought people eyes to really pop when they see me wearing one. (Ker mmg aku yg hot bila pakai purple ni? ngeee...)
But today, it looks like not only me who wear purple - quite a number of people in the office also did! Maybe pakat-pakat le tu kot...huhu. Whatever it is, it's really fun to wear this color sometimes as it liven things up. Oh, do you know that I was once kena tegur for wearing purple in a ceremony that I'm emceeing? It turned out that purple, together with yellow is the color for the royal. Yes, royal. Not Casino Royale, or Royale Bintang; but the Diraja like for the kings and queens. Hmmm... good tips there. No wonder I never see any crowd wearing it except the Raja themselves.
Btw, my shirt is from River Island, very slimming yet very prone to creases as it is quite cotton-ny. Paired it with the slim cotton tartan checks tie by Uniqlo, it was like marriage made in heaven. Except that the marriage is not that a perfect one. Why? Turn out that my tie is too slim compared to the high-neck collar of my shirt, plus the Lanvin tie bar went way over the width which made it looks so funny. Yet, to avoid all the mistakes without having to go home for a change, I just wore the slim black blazer over it to hide the 'flaw', and had to double-knot the tie to pump up its 'triangle'. Much safer, I guess.
see the mistakes? No matter it's a Lanvin, the tie bar too wide compared to the width of the tie. Not good!
And the best part (or weird, which ever which you perceived!), the color of my tops really match the bougainvillea flower that I saw on my way to the cafe. Whoa, I'm very the Ipohngites la camni, coz bougainvillea IS Ipoh's official flower! What a coincidence...!
