Ahoy!

Hello everyone!

Errm, well, this is awkward. I haven't been writing here for a while. Do you want to hear my excuses? They're acceptable, I promise. Well, basically I was wrapped up in studying and exams for my finals, and I finished college yesterday...for good. Yipee! What this means for SOS! is more posts from me. I missed you lovely readers.

Anywho, this is a quick outfit post for old times sake. As you may know, I have a dirty habit of going online browsing everyday. My other dirty habit is saving items on ASOS. Unfortunately that doesn't go well with my no spending plan, but this time I decided to treat myself for a few things. I have to agree with Fiona's previous post about full length, or shall we say, maxi skirts and dresses. I love them. It all budded last fall, when I first bought the striped dress from ASOS. That dress is VERY comfy, and very resembles an Acne dress that I really liked. The only difference is that I paid around 30 something pounds, and the Acne one is about 200 pounds. And I prefer my one because it has different striped panels on the side of the dress.

And I don't know, there's something fresh and new about maxis these days. More "clingy" but in the right places, more sexy, more comfy, more summery. With my not so guilty spending habit, I managed to buy 3 maxi items from ASOS recently; one of which is this navy/white sailor striped jersey skirt. I wore it out today for the first time for a sniff of fresh air, especially after I've been stuck at home studying for the past gazillion days.

Also, while I'm speaking about new things.. After one of the exams, I needed a small spending fix and I found the floral printed sunnies from Primark (Penneys) for 1.50 euro. YES. 1 euro 50 cent.. cheaper than a cup of coffee. I also bought them in black floral, so both together is 3 euro..cheaper than a venti caramel mocchiato. There you have it.

Hope all of you have been enjoying the pretty decent spring weather. I finally am. And good luck to those who have their final exams.

And please note, that I don't wear my sunglasses indoors. I just wanted to show you them!
