I seldom wear this blazer due to its fabric (no idea how to describe it but I heard it's called ponte) - it makes the blazer look more casual. Wore this outfit on a random trip to IKEA (no plans to buy anything, duh - which is why I wore heel) and brunch w my mum. Always love a simple chic outfit comprising of items I have loved for years - the newest items in this outfit have got to be the blazer and shoes - both bought in 2014!

Also, this pair of jeans is is my first ever pair of ASOS jeans (when they still had the UK sizing instead of the current waist and length measurement sizing) and I still love them loads. I am pretty sure they stretched out, but so did my butt, so it still fits me really well now HAHA.

this dress.

Dress (size 00) | Banana Republic Petite
Longline blazer (UK4) | New Look Petite
Shoes | Mango
Bag | Givenchy

This is possibly my favourite pencil dress to date - and it's not black! (Yeah, I surprised myself with that too). It fits really well, has a lovely cut and the quality is great. BR makes great workwear and the petite range is just a godsend. Not sure where I can still browse the petite collection in stores now though, BR is no longer available in SG (but they didn't use to carry the petite range anyway) and is no longer available in UK too sigh.

Got this dress in SF along with this amazing pair of boots.

sleeves

Blouse (UK4) | New Look Petite
Trousers (11-12 y/o) | Zara Girls
Shoes | Zara
Bag | Balenciaga

Finally, sleeves which aren't too long for me! I am always excited by such finds because they are soooo rare. This shade of grey/purple is one of my fav pastel colours as it is rather ambiguous. Also, great paired with anything else grey - which possibly makes up 1/4 of my wardrobe (1/2 is definitely black lol). I also love it that the fold and drapes of this blouse makes the front section less translucent.
