Mellow Yellow






Finalizing the Easter outfits is my new and beloved yellow dress from ASOS. It seems that my colours for this Spring are yellow and mint. I've already acquired a few mint things, such as this dress and a cardigan that needs yet to be shown here, but has been getting much wear. Though yellow is something quite surprising for me as I always gravitated towards blue and red hues. First I got a yellow cover for my iPhone, when I always wanted a blue. Yes, I still do have a blue one, but the yellow seems to never want to leave it, so I let it be. And then I've been wanting a yellow dress since last Spring I had to give this one away simply because I could barely breathe wearing it. I have been drooling over many yellow dresses but I wanted something simple, as I have many elaborate dresses that I rarely wear. So when I found this basic yellow dress I swooned, even more because of the exposed zip in the back that you can't see here, but I'll work on showing it sometime soon. Maybe when the weather starts improving? Seriously, the sun can be so misleading... I almost froze outside today! 

PS: Now I can tell I am developing a slight obsession with yellow, I just bought a yellow jumper at Zara today...

I love this dress! (and I want to see more of it next time, hehe). You know I'm 100% with you on yellow... and I just want the weather to warm up so I can wear mine. And I also agree with you re: simple dresses. Especially as it gets into summer... all I want are easy dresses and those Victoria shoes...

You seem to have bought a lot of cute things recently, by the way!

Emily: I know! I have been buying more things lately, I think it's because I am eager for Spring! But I have to stop now! Anyway, some of the things I've shown here lately were bought long ago but I never posted. That happens to me often! Wearing things that rarely end up here :S

Oh! And the dress and shoes were actually bought by my boyfriend! ;)

What a lovely shade of yellow! I find that I don't wear my elaborate dresses as much as maybe I should either (which is silly because I like them well enough, but so it goes...). I've seen a lot of nice, simple dresses on ASOS, but haven't ordered any yet. Were you pleased overall ordering with them?

I am smitten with your gray trench coat. I want one now! :D
