Buying An Outfit


In Kuala Lumpur to attend J's garden wedding, and also to grab a weekend break with the man, beyond packing the essentials, I didn't bother bringing a dress for the wedding from home.

I wasn't worried about not having anything to wear. My hotel was adjacent to 1 Utama shopping mall. It was a huge mall with many many shops. It definitely made great sense to just buy an outfit next door. Garden weddings are a good avenue to experiment with clothes. The al fresco setting and all makes it easier to wear kooky stuff. The best part is- I needn't wear stilettos. Heh!

Left the man alone for a day. He sorted himself out at the gym and caught up with his friends in the city too. One morning at the mall sorted out everything from the dress, shoes, clutch and accessories. I was so pleased.
