I still remember one of the first floral clothing I had. It was a yellow A line skirt that my mum had bought in different colours for my sister and I.
How I loved that skirt! I used to wear it to church every other sunday.
I’m not sure when I made the switch from cute floral A Line skirt loving girl but currently, floral prints aren’t exactly a huge part of my closet. So when the blogger point put out word that the theme to their blogger’s brunch would be “floral” , I wasn’t part of the excited people.
In true Cassandra fashion, I didn’t bother to think of what to wear till a few days before the event when I remembered that I had this floral dress I got from Grey last year (Remember Grey? I collaborated with them here) but it was really short, so I just stowed it away and never wore it.
I figured I could cut off the flared bit and sew it a little lower to make it wearable, so I did just that!
Decided to add a bit more funk by draping the denim jacket over my shoulders and my latest obsession, this sunnies I got from hautesignatures.
My plan was to wear it with either white sneakers or ankle strap heels but I spoilt my sneakers and haven’t replaced it, so I had to make do with flats instead.
Funny thing though! After the event, I realized that I actually have a bit of floral clothings I could have picked from. Although most aren’t the super big or crowded floral prints but the small understated type, which was probably why I never thought of them.
Speaking of flowers, these past few days I’ve been learning quite a bit about blooming where I’m planted. Med life isn’t really doing much for creative side and can be a bit stifling. Although, I don’t have a choice and I can’t exactly get out of this, I have decided to make the most out of it, because who knows how the lessons and experiences I would get here might come in handy in the future.
Sometimes we have to make the best of our situations and bloom where we have been planted, just like a flower growing from the cracks does.

Not a floral person but I don't mind wearing it though. And I couldn't have styled that gown better. The gown is really pretty.

Not a floral person but I don't mind wearing it. Couldn't have styled that gown better. Maybe with a black blazer though instead of the denim jacket. The gown is really pretty . 🙂

Black would have dulled everything mehn.
I'm with you on the first line though.
Thank you for coming around and for the compliment!
No…I'm not a floral person but I don't mind wearing it. And I couldn't have styled that gown any better though I would've gone for a black blazer instead of a denim jacket. The gown is really pretty. And you are so consistent, I try to keep up.😅. Nice.

The outfit is really beautiful, I am not a fan of florals either, but you make it easy to want to wear one. Those shades are life giving.
About blooming where you are planted : thank you for this subtle reminder, for someone like me who is always itching to move. Thank you for being Consistent too.

The shades are all I see! Ok, I lied. I see everything and I love how well put together the outfit is.
I enjoyed this so much and you look really cute. I also have a problem with making the best out of rather stiff situations. I hope I learn to as time goes on.
The jacket draped around your shoulders is classic you! I'm actually about to post a vlog where I talk about my current job, and even though it's not what I envision for myself, there are things to learn from it. So keep flourishing!

This was a good look! The draped jacket is so you!The sunnies are really nice as well. Somedays I like floral, some days I don't. As for house job, I'm sure you'll still find ways to flourish. I love the quote "Bloom where you are planted!"
