i remember loving the Sretsis Fall|Winter 2006 collection back when i was obsessed with both asian fashion and headbands (i still am, just different kinds now haha!). i also loved it purely because the name of the brand is really the word "sisters" spelt backwards and i love my sister! anyway, i tried to outgrow the innocent and overly feminine style because i was getting too many comments that i was dressing like a little girl...and without a doubt it was partly bc i was influenced by the school girl vibe of the collection.

anyway, after seeing a post about the online store Maximillia on PhospheneFashion
, I checked out the link and was thrilled to see all the pastels and super girly frilly dresses by Stresis and it immediately renewed my love for the brand. i know it's weird, but that's when i really realized... i'm still young! i'm still playful! so why cant my style be too?! i've been beating myself up thinking that after graduation i need to get a completely different wardrobe with tons of career wear. and that i cant shop at fast fashion places anymore. but i still have plenty of time to dress like a big girl! and i can always buy "investment pieces" later!

some days i'll have to dress more grown up (interviews) and other times i want to dress sexier (clubbing with friends). but most of the time, i really wish i could dress like this again. but i feel like im so petite that if i do, im just gonna be mistaken for a kid bc i dont have the modelesque figure to pull it off! sigh...fashion is such a weird and complicated thing. or maybe it's just me?!
