Do I look tall now? 😏

I love the fit of this Co-Ord from Femme Luxe Finery! The material is thick so it seems high quality, unlike other pieces from other international brands. I was surprised upon wearing it because I thought it wouldn't fit right because the pants seemed so long. Well, it really is long but I think they meant it to be like that... as to what the photos on site look like on the model. Here, I'm wearing heels from Zalora which I've acquired a few years back.

I can't wait to wear this outside once this is all over.

Stay at home and keep safe, please!

In all honesty, I was saving this dress for a family dinner or a night out with friends because the emerald green velvet color of this bodycon dress makes it so fancy and elegant. However though, given that we're still on quarantine (and I have a feeling that this will still go on for more months), might as well do my own shoot here at home, in my room, just like the old times when the art of blogging was still so new and vlogging on youtube doesn't exist yet. If you'd ask me, I miss that time where the blogging circle was so small that you basically knew each other and everything was so genuine.

Anyway, enough reminiscing and let's just talk about my dress. This velvet bodycon dress from Femme Luxe Finery is super lovely. But to be honest, it's not the most comfortable piece you'll ever wear. I mean, the idea I mentioned earlier about going to eat out in this dress would be not a great idea because it's hard to move in this. To think that I wore a lace top underneath, it's not comfy but it looks so pretty together. I mean, I can still breathe but let's just say that this dress is too tight that walking is difficult. But if I altered the length to just above my knee, it would be very okay to walk. I'm thinking that maybe the length is meant for taller girls, and not Asian women (and I stand at 5'4 1/2" - 5'5" which makes me taller than the average Asian ladies) especially because the brand is from the UK.

So the question is, will I wear this outside? Yes, I will if I will be able to alter the length of the dress. But I will not wear it as it is. I love it though because I it really compliments my body. Also, the photos didn't do justice but it's greener in person.

Been inside the four walls of our home for more than 100 days now. So this is me trying out a different style in shooting for content. :)

The world is going through a difficult time right now and having my own series of anxiety and breakdowns during this quarantine period, I try to find the light to keep moving and adopt to the new normal. Of course this will be a long and difficult step. Before ECQ, I've been so busy with design projects, my business, and my interior design studio that I find it challenging to update and create content for my blog. Now that I no longer go out of the house, I have time to shoot and create content.

So sharing today this Rose Satin Front Tie Top from Femme Luxe Finery.
