First off, Its my Birthday today!! Yay!! Happy birthday to mee!!
This post was supposed to be put up yesterday, but since I was too busy talking to people on the phone (yes, working weekdays aren't very good for celebrating birthdays) I couldn't post it. Oh well, this wasn't really my birthday outfit, but I'l post birthday pictures tomorrow. (Honestly, there aren't that many, but more on that tomorrow)



You've all seen this dress if your a regular reader of my blog. Its absolutely adorable! I've worn it so many different ways and I still always manage to find newer ways. Yay!! Big high fives to my dear cousin for sending it to me! I kept the look simple and clean with just a simple long necklace that I picked up while shopping for a friend. It makes me feel like I'm a character in Doctor Who, or an old Sherlock Holmes story.

No, I'm not really going to go all technical on you and start talking about efficient algorithms and implementations. I have enough of that in Uni and this is my happy place! I just can't seem to shake off the 'lingo' we use all day, hence the title.

Engineers tend to make up big words and titles to sound all intelligent, when all that means is using your limited clothes to your best advantage. So here's my take on wardrobe optimization. Remember my gorgeous butterfly dress? Well, I just realized that every time I wear it, I seem to do something different with it. So here's the same dress..worn three ways.

Ever since I started teaching, I've been wearing what I classified as 'aunty' clothes. Basically, its what mums in India tend to wear everyday. This look was something that reminded me of what I'd probably wear when I became a mum and gained loads of weight. This top was bought for an aunt turned out to be too small for her, so it ended up in my wardrobe. My only problem with this, its really hard to properly iron it and tends to crease a lot!




I really like the color and think its good enough to stand on its own, so I kept the accessories to a minimum and just added a pair of matching danglers. I'm plesantly surprised at how I ended up liking the overall look. This outfit is something that I would wear to uni (yes, I'm a uni girl again!) and its just the outfit for no fuss days when you can't be arsed with looking for accessories. And at the end of the day, its not what you wear, its how you wear it! Don't you think so?

Do you have any outfits that you thought looked very drab but still made you feel pretty? Tell me all about them in the comments below! You could also talk to me in various ways seen in the Contacts section.
