[Collar Me Bad]

collar |ˈkälər|
a band of material around the neck of a shirt, dress, coat, or jacket, generally an integral part of the garment.

Collar has been my favorite since I dunno when (..I root for the nerdy preppy look)

BUT lately, the detachable one has made me fallen even more for this item ♥

Yes, you did not read it wrong...a detachable collar.  A collar that is not an integral part of a garment.

Recently, this item has grown even more (after its 1st introduction in Miu Miu SS Collection 2010) in the heart of the fashionistas.  It was spotted on magazines, fashion weeks-worn as a new form of accessory.

Thanks to Miuccia, now I have even more options to spice up my dull blouses.

I have had this item wrapped up nicely in my drawer for a year.  I bought it out of curiosity and I had to admit that it took a while for us to click :p

But the more I came to think bout it, basically it's just a cloth necklace, right?

Think of how many ways you could wear it ♥

Here two of my recent looks sporting my new found accessory. Pardon the floral, I'm still in transition to Fall.  But I've embraced the colors at least :p

(Hint: Lots of momma's old goodies)

Hello jello...

my thesis is like crawling all over my head, forming these gloomy clouds over my days.

Seriously..."Thesis, y u no auto-finished!?"

But today, I'm givin myself a break to update this blog..hah finally, doin something I love ♪♫

So, I go to the nearest Starbucks for a change of mood.  And it does not fail me...as always. I just freakin love Starbucks!

After that, I have a little walk on the park to sew up my refreshing day.  It feels real good ♥
