When the tough gets going, the tough goes shopping!

I wore this pair of floral shorts from Urban Outfitters on Tuesday. I was really late for class already so I just grabbed the shorts & wore this t-shirt the boyf bought me from KL. My mum bought the yellow shoes for me :) I love the color! So bright & cheery & they are surprisingly really comfortable!

I wore this t-shirt I bought from Zouk Flea Market! I love it cause the print of the t-shirt are shoes :D I know, I wear skirts a lot. I can't help it! I tend to build my outfits around my skirts & shoes. Mmhmm. I got tagged so I am going to do them now! They'll be posted after the outfits! :D

Btw, I took out my extensions! It's been 3 months! I don't think I'll get extensions again because my, the amount of hair I lost just by taking them out is crazy :/







    T-Shirt - Kuala Lumpur
    Shorts - Urban Outfitters
    Headband - Harbourfront Centre
    Flats - Cotton On





    T-Shirt - Zouk Flea Market
    Headband - Forever 21
    Skirt - Custom-made
    Belt - Far East Plaza
    Shoes - Zouk Flea Market

    6 unimportant things/quirks about me!
    1. My food & sauce has to be separated. I always request this whenever I order my food. Honestly, if they forget, I won't touch the part that has the sauce even though I'll probably dip it into the sauce myself. It just spoils my mood & I always think that the part that touched the sauce is definitely soggy & I don't like soggy food! Plus, when I dip it myself, I get to choose how much sauce I want on it!
    2. I still think that there is a monster under my bed. My bed has to face the wall & I'll curl myself so my legs won't touch the edge of the bed & get pulled down by the monster!
    3. I am a crybaby. I cry over anything, everything. It's a very big weakness of mine.
    4. I find it hard to socialize wit people & making conversations wit strangers! I just can't bring myself to go " Hello, my name is Yiqin, you?! ". However, I wish to get into the Marketing sector so I must get over this soon!
    5. A very big quirk of mine is that I really enjoy reading about serial killers, sick muderers/pedophiles, all the horrible murder cases! I just find them interesting because I honestly can't believe anyone can do such things & be so cruel to a fellow human being! The criminal mind is really facsinating!
    6. I love reading. One of my favourite places are bookstores & I can spend all day reading! Besides reading about brutal serial killers & sick pedophiles, I love chicklits too! My all time favourite is the Shopaholic series! Is Becky Bloomwood anyone else's hero? & my favourite authors include, Sophie Kinsella, Adele Parks, Jodi Picoult, Sheila O'Flanagan a new favourite has to be John Grisham! Those law stories are amazing. & yes, I am a big fan of Harry Potter too! I never stopped mourning for Sirius Black :(

    PS. Lipstick Jungle got cancelled!! :( I really hope they air this week's episode because I love Joe & Victory together & I was so looking forward to seeing their scenes this week! Booooo.

    16. i'm the same way with sauces! i used to order pasta, asking for "light sauce" but soon discovered kitchens have absolutely no idea what a light serving of sauce is. the pasta would arrive practically swimming in sauce. i wonder what a regular serving of sauce would be. so now i ask for the pasta and sauce to be served separately. a table spoon of sauce on the pasta, and i'm happy.
      i'm the same way with salads and dressings. some restaurants are very good at dressings, but most overuse the sauce and completely smother the taste of the greens.
      by the way, i noticed the scratches on your knee and foot. i hope you didn't get those fighting with waiters. even if they probably deserved the beating.

    17. love that shirt, and dont worry sometimes i imagine a monster grabbing my feet if they hang off the bed!

      ReplyDelete
    18. Haha, fun facts! Your outfits always make me smile, so happy looking!

      And about my hair, I don't do anything to it. Honestly, I just wake up in the morning and it's a mess, haha.

    19. Two more gorgeous outfits, I'm crazy about the second pair of shoes. Oh and Becky Bloomwood is my hero too, I can't wait til the movie comes out!

      ReplyDelete
    20. Love your balck-white shoes :) I love reading also: John Grisham is so good and Harry POtters (Sirius Black<3) and Shopaholic and Gossip Girl and romantic stories (for example Nora Roberts and Sandra Brown). And of course Twilight stories are the best!

    24. Haha I'm just like you! I totally cannot socialize randomly with people. In fact, I won't go to an event if I don't know anyone there. But we must try to overcome our shyness! Haha. I'm a bit of a crybaby too, but more in the sense that I cry at movies and TV shows whenever there's a sad scene.

      ReplyDelete
    25. i always love your skirts!!
      this ones uber chic!

      ReplyDelete
    26. I love your custom made skirt, and the tee you paired with the shorts!
      I hate it when programmes I like get cancelled =[

      ReplyDelete
    27. I really like those last shoes!

      I'm terrible at striking up conversations with strangers too, I'm the most socially awkward person I know!

    39. I've been meaning to buy those yellow flats from Cotton On, I think I will next time I go there! :D

      Great list of quirks too - I'm sort of the same with my bed - I have to have myself covered entirely by my bedspread - I can't have a hand or an arm out of the covers because the boogie man will eat it.

      ReplyDelete

      And YEAH, I love reading the Shopaholic series too! And I cried sooo much when Sirius Black died :(

    51. i always thought that she would bring Sirius Black back to life in the last book. So disappointing.
      I love your face printed tee.

      ReplyDelete
    52. That first t-shirt is very cool. I also really like those shoes. Great buys!

      ReplyDelete
    53. I really love reading too. I'm currently reading 'The Lovely Bones', which would be right up your alley if you haven't already read it. I'm really really liking it.
      Oh, and I'm pretty terrible at socializing as well haha.

      Your skirt and shoes in the second outfit are great..is the doodling on the shoes actually done with a sharpie, or is it printed on the fabric?

      ReplyDelete
    54. Haha! I love the title of this post.

      I love how unexpected the way you wear your graphic tee in the second outfit is. (And it's printed with sheos! Does it get any better?)

      As for quirk #4, I had to spend the past two afternoons talking to strangers as research for a paper. Not only did I have to approach strangers, but I was supposed to strike up a conversation with random SHOPPERS. It was SCARY, let me tell you. I feel your pain.

      ReplyDelete
    55. Those floral shorts are so so nice.

      You are the cutest lady alive.

      ReplyDelete
    56. I AM your #4. And I want to get into advertising or marketing too!

      You wear the t-shirt and skirt combo so well! I can never do it without looking like I tried really hard.

      ReplyDelete
    57. You love murder cases and paedophiles stories? Don't believe it. That's quirky alright!

      You have a true knack of finding cool shoes and shirts. I love that tee!

      ReplyDelete
    58. Yi Qin!! Siti here! :)

    61. Both outfits are amazing, but the red skirt is just so lovely on you!!

      And the post title couldn't be more appropriate! I adore it!!

      ReplyDelete
    62. Yes, extensions can definetly pull out lots of hair, but it will probably grow back soon. I really like the bright yellow flats, you're right they are very cheery. (I'm a huge Harry Potter fan too!)

      ReplyDelete
    63. I love love love love love that outfit with the red skirt. =) And yay for being a HP fan! =)

    76. I thought Lipstick Jungle was renewed for a second season? Because on the newest Project Runway one of the challenges was with Brooke Shields and designing a look for her in the 2nd season? Whoops. Did I give too much away?! Eeek. Cute as always. Love the colours of the floral shorts.

      ReplyDelete
