Minnie. As in the Mouse.



  • So this is what i wore last Friday on our Anniversary dinner. It's yellow, such vintage for its design and i love polka dots, and good cos it's making its way now again on the runway. The best part is i got this on thrift. Yey! 90php (2$). Yellow and dots makes me happy and giddy and excited. I can never imagine wearing this dress and sulk the whole time. Just not possible.
  • Anyway the date was quick. Typhoon was coming, and here in the province strong wind is an understatement. Why? Cos it's not just wind, but some branches of trees flying along with it, we just can't take the chance driving home in the middle of the storm and avoiding toppled electrical posts and trees. We've experienced that three years ago and it scared the hell out of me. I was so sure i was gonna die..... Okay. Over acting on my part. hihihiih. But really, i did.
  • We're supposed to go to this farm to photograph this outfit but we never made it cos quite unexpectedly of the heavy rain and angry wind that started on a Friday afternoon. Frankly i was not aware that it's flooding already in Metro Manila if not from my pregnant friend who's by the way already experiencing contraction since Friday. That really got me so worried. I just prayed for the safety of all my friends living in the Metro area especially for her not to give birth yet till the flood situation got stabilized first.
  • So where is Minnie Mouse coming in all these? Isn't it obvious? I am her. When we got home i saw my mirror reflection one last time before changing and thinking my outfit looks specifically like ....something. I kept thinking and i saw the Tom and Gerry dvd sitting on our bed and OMG i am dressed like Minnie Mouse. Total copy cat. hihihhihi. Am telling you the discovery was hilarious. Okay see for yourself.

All i need is a pink bow, mouse ear and tail and am good for Halloween. hihihihi. Brilliant right?
Am i a cartoon or a loony or a mouse?
hihihhii.
It all came back to me. While we're on a date, obviously I am Minnie, Husband is Mickey and Koffy is Pluto. hihihihi. Cos we took him with us. Maybe that's the reason we got all those stares.

well, am really hoping everyone is safe now and dry.


Philippines, my fellow countrymen, hope this Minnie Mouse outfit of mine puts a little smile on your face even for just a while. And to everyone have a great cartoony day!

  4. I love the dress. The colour and polka dot design is perfect.

    I completely understand about staying in during a typhoon. I used to live in Hong Kong and remember how scary it was during typhoon season.
