Realized that I have been wearing top-and-bottom coordinated outfits every January 1 for five years now! I know! Amazing! 2016 and 2017 were a complete coincidence, but I have loved those classic pieces that I could still wear them again and again and again until the present day. While 2018 and 2019? Those clothes were planned because of my New Yorker-dreams-on-New-Year's-Day kind of style, as posted in this blog. This is why, I told myself, I need to continue my New Year OOTD tradition this 2020! And in the years to come if possible! Yay or nay? Send me your thoughts! 'Cause for me, it really is a yay, of course! 💖 2016 was the official start of my experimental stage (be it in fashion or in life) where I started again with the classics. After some months of discovery and reflection, I realized that I wanted to project myself as the cute girl with a fighting spirit, but with bohemian style on the side, so that was what I did in 2017. With the universe's blessing, I did become a girly-yet-edgy gypsy since then! And having to be continuously growing, for 2018, a more smarty, polished side of me got highlighted. I have loved that version of me, but I kinda became hard on myself, too. So! For 2019, continued who I had become, yet much carefree than before. Ya know, chill while being comfortable at my own skin. For this year's entry, of course, I wore another co-ords with shining NY goals through the peachy-pink H&M blazer and thrift shorts, white Fila sneakers, and leather Nine West backpack. 2020 is a new decade, but I would always remember who I was; who I was first before this self has turned into the present one. I wore this color because pink used to be my favorite color when I was a kid. However, I am into pastel and nude colors now. Balancing these fave colors of mine, I think the middle hue in the spectrum would be peach-ish pink, so this; this is the color that could represent my old, my present, and my upcoming version. I wanna incorporate my January 1 OOTD into my childhood days because I wanna go back at one, back from where it all started, back to my basic life. As mentioned above, I chose co-ords because I plan to continue my New Year slash New Yorker goals and become even better than before. This is the brightest-colored blazer and shorts that I own, so I also hope that my year too would be this strikingly beautiful -- just as what my Dada said when he saw me wearing this 💖 My so-called NY OOTDs have really helped me build the self that I wanna be for the year that is coming through dressing up. And so I guess, I would love to do this in the next years to come, too! Hopefully... 💖
