[Fashion] Shopping for summer clothes during the winter


It's finally winter here in Bahrain (after a week of showers and floods) and I get to wear my sweaters and scarves outside without worrying about sweating my arse off now.

I am not sure whether it's the same in other countries but in Bahrain, whenever it's winter, all the summer clothes go on extreme 50% - 75% off sale. Especially in Forever21. And whenever it's summer, all the winter clothing will be on sale. I love how the world ironically works that way.

So I did a little bit of shopping a couple of days back, and by shopping I mean by trying on a bunch of stuff and only walking out of the store with only one item. I asked myself continuously while I was roaming the store "Do I need a new summer dress? Do I need a new bag? Do I need a new skirt? Would I need to wear these things to work?" and while I was looking at the multiple dresses on the corner, I set myself straight and said "I'll buy a simple dress that I can wear for summer and winter. Done" So I tried it on this very simple blue colored dress and instantly decided to purchase it!

The dress looks quite similar to this: 

Forever New Yvette Skater Dress



I absolutely love dresses like these!

And of course, "when something new comes along, one must think of what to wear with it". Or at least I think it goes that way. So I compiled a very simple outfit for this winter. 


Winter Blues

Wearing crop tops on top of dresses like this is a great way to turn it into a whole new dress or just turn the dress into a skirt xD

Winter Blues? Well, singles like ahem me sometimes get the winter blues, having no one to cuddle with, to kiss on new years eve, and other stuff that couples do during the winter. I don't want to dwell on that right now. I'm done brooding over things like that, my time as a love sick junky is over. It's all about my life beyond relationships and men.

I want to take photos of me while wearing the dress, but I honestly don't want to go out and deal with the stares and the catcalls right now. It's been a busy week of doing nothing but everything all at once.

Have a great day everyone! Keep warm! :3
