March 16, 2013! Me and my high school friends were all very much anticipating for this day for weeks! Because yesterday, one of my closest friends Nel Anne Grace had just gotten married ♥♥ Aww, the last time I saw her was almost 5 years ago, when we graduated from College. From high school to College, we went to the same school. And her house was not that far from ours, thus, we went to school together, went home together. Our friendship witnessed each other's growth from being 2 little girl rascals in High School, to become the fine, professional young women that we are now. haha XP
Kidding aside, I felt sad that we had to go on our own ways after graduation. We are now both working at different Banks, lol competition is inevitable :p And given our super hectic work schedules, especially mine, we never had the chance to go out and bond like we used to. Whenever our group sets up a reunion, we were never complete. And almost always, I was the one absent. Last month, I had this surprisingly rare opportunity to see her, accidentally! From work, I had a service van, but on that very day, one of my office friends forced me to take the train. And behold! Nel Anne was there. I believe it was destined, so to speak, that I took the train just so we could see each other. Thank God :) That was when I learned that she was getting married and to say that I was surprised to hear it was an understatement. I was shocked! I always had this notion that we are still too young to get married. Or I'm just in denial that I'm already old lol. I'm 26, and yes, I self proclaim that I'm still young! So anyway, this time, our group made sure that we were all complete, all nine of us, on this very special day. And I was quite ecstatic, I'm gonna cry again T____T
So before I bawl in here, I'd like to share to you what I wore for the occasion:
It was a garden wedding, so I thought it would be best to wear something colorful and floral so I could blend well with the flowers :p And since it's Summer anyway. By the way, would you believe that my mom just thrifted this mullet skirt? I was astounded when I learned that she bought it for only Php 40.00! I wasn't even planning to wear a skirt because I already had a dress in mind. But when mom saw it with the screaming tag price, she knew she just had to get it! I love her to pieces ♥ She definitely knows my style like the back of her hand :) Also, some gold accessories for that elegant twist.
I simply adore these slippers from Bocalo! I was scouting for gold strappy sandals when I saw these! My heart melted and I thought they were pleading like "get me! get me!" and I didn't have the heart to turn these babies down! ♥
I was definitely happy with the combination I came up with, I hope you find it pretty too *puppy eyes*. Please do let me know what you think! I would love to hear from you! ♥♥
