Aside from having a good sleep, grand rising, me time, and family moments, there is another constant thing that has always been part of my birthday traditions. Any guesses or did you not notice it? Because what I am talking about here is my birthday dress slash birthday outfit! 💖 During the early times, I had my so-called birthday OOTD because I just really wanted to dress up. However, as the years go by, wearing cute clothes every September 29 has become an annual norm for my special day. If you are curious about this year's birthday suit, I garbed up on a white, eyelet, maxi dress by Sunday Morning paired with baby pink heels from Comfit 💖 To be honest, I saw lots of prospective dresses online. I even had my top five choices. However, there is this dress that stood out among all of them. And I believe that this one suits me the most. If people claim that you are what you wear. Then? Then I could really say that I am this OOTD and this OOTD is really me! Let me tell you why... 💖 Since I am renewing my vision, thus, establishing a new era of my softie-but-strong self, I chose a white-colored cloth for my birthday dress because it portrays birth, baptism, and resurrection. Learning about the garment used, one must realize that it is a floral eyelet fabric. And you know me! I am a flower enthusiast and I aim to grow, bloom, and flourish for all my life, so this deserves an additional point why this must be my special dress. As mentioned in my previous posts if you could remember, I am into maxi dresses and long skirts this year because those are not just stylish, but also comfortable in my skin. Looking at the design, moreover, the dress has puffy sleeves that resemble the national costume of the Philippines called Filipiniana. My vision, mission, style, comfort, even my social media brand lead a perfect fit for this beautiful dress! It seems like it was made for me, you know, something like that. Plus, another thing that amazed me is the brand name of the shop where I got the dress, which is Sunday Morning. Coincidence or a Universe message? Because I super love Sundays! Sundays are my re-starting days! Especially Sunday mornings! Woah, right! And for the shoes, I borrowed these baby pink heels from Mama. Similar to how my mother carried me in her womb, these shoes of hers serve as my foundation, inspiration, and reason to move forward to life. For I believe that my birthday is not just meant to be celebrated for the self, but also the persons and whys behind my existence. And for that category, Mama must be the best representation of all. In addition to these, the heels were actually my gift to her, so this shows a give-and-take relationship. And remember what God said, that commandment to love one another, that is the purpose of life! So I told you so! This dress and heels combo is such an amazing outfit! One of my most favorite, in all honesty 💖 Cheers to the New Era, New Ela! Cheers to my Start Of Something New! Cheers to my rebirth, woohoo! Here is to continuing 1 Corinthians 15:10 X Psalm 46:5 whilst claiming Proverbs 31:25! As seen in nine / twenty-nine when I wore this glowing dress, I hope to be clothed with strength and dignity and laugh without fear of the future. With the help of the You-niverse, aja! Let's do this! Let's get it, let it roll! 💖
