comfort clothing; on lazy days

Pardon my language. It is not my intention to start of by being so abrupt and sounding so sudden in a post title. Probably you wouldn't need to read the rest of the post once I put out the picture that I associate it with. Oh well. Something just don't need the beating around the bush to get to the point, and this is one of the things. This is just too...obvious.



Behold the lazy clothing that beats all other lazy clothing out there. Cardigans.

For someone like me, cardigan is a must-have. If people have an umbrella stand ready by their door, I would use that stand to hang my cardigans so that I could slip into them at the dorrway and run out to the street. How twisted is my understanding of sediakan payung sebelum hujan. I always think of cardigans as my savior in confusing or busy days. Days where I'm too lazy or couldn't care less. Days that I want to go with not thinking what I should wear or whether I would look cute. Days where I would trade myself with an Oompa Loompa if that means I could complete my work. Okay, scratch that. I don't want to work in a sticky chocolate factory.

Let's cut it to the point.

Well, I have always wanted to find a cardigan that isn't plain, but not too fancy at the same time. I have looked into stores in Times Square, where to me, one could easily get a nice looking cardigan that would look cute on. And nothing black in it. Lord knows I have enough black cardigan/jacket/blazer to last me a lifetime. No, this time I am determined to find a cream/peach/pink/tan/grey cardigan. i prefer it not to have buttons as well, as I've seen in Korean fashion that a buttonless cardigan, at least in my opinion, would pop up an outfit. And even if I'm looking for one, I would find it with cute buttons.

Mission in Times Square fail. I brought that mission home. Got up one day with an urge to go to some random local boutique in my neighbourhood, pop in, and there it was. Hanging nicely on a rack (clearance rack!) just waiting for me to try it on. And tried it, I did.

This is indeed a RM25 well-spent.

I could pair this up with so many different things- blouse, jeggings, high waisted shorts and black tights, white tshirt, long necklace, bangles etc etc. But for most days (the lazy one, as the post title suggest), I would just go with some black jeans, white/black tank top and a black shawl.


I like how this cardigan has an extra tie around the waist, so it hugs it to my body nicely and gather them in the front so it hung nicely around my legs. And the ruffles around it just add to my point of "not plain but not too fancy" cardigan.



With lazy days, come the matching lazy face. And a lazy face like this consist of moisturizer, BB Cream, face mist and some Vaseline for the lips.

What do we do on lazy days? We go food hunting at the nearest Bazaar. So you would understand how a cardigan like this is much needed in such a situation.
