Plumage on a mini; Terrycloth flip flops

Hello my darlings!

I write with much enthusiasm in this entry as I saw something so fascinating, I am ecstatic to talk about it.

I can tell that local brand Mphosis is "Mphosising" on being different. First of all, they have plain clothing in usually, five different colors. They are all about going back to basics. I like that. And that's made them so successful. Like I said in one of my earlier entries, classics and basics should always make up most of a woman's wardrobe.

However, as of late, they have been trying to steer towards the High Fashion category. The prices are not that of High Fashion, yet. But, they have certainly gone up for "basics". I was shocked to see a thin,black, cotton blazer going for more than $100. Anyway, I say that they're going towards High Fashion because I noticed that they have been adding more and more oddly cut/shaped clothing or baggy/flowy pieces to each new collection. It's their way of standing out from the masses.

As I breezed through Mphosis, I came across a mini skirt with feathers. The plumage was not real, of course. My dears, it wasn't JUST little strings of feathers on the mini, it was a mini covered in feathers! I literally had no thoughts when I saw that skirt. I wasn't sure what to think. You know how you get one of those speechless moments in your life? That was mine. I didn't know how to feel about it. I still don't.

I had a quick look at their latest flip flops and I saw flip flops made of Terrycloth. Can someone please explain to me why they had the idea of making flip flops with Terrycloth? I know Singapore's a very humid country, but we don't need flip flops that absorb our feet sweat. If those flip flops are meant for the pool, I get it. Just call them "poolops" or something. But if they aren't meant for the pool, can you just imagine wearing those flip flops all day, walking around. It would feel like you're constantly stepping on a towel or a bathroom mat.

Catch my next entry, on a possible addiction I'd like to address.

Till next time my darling. Ciao ciao.
