:: sporty spice ::

When I reached Manchester in winter of 1996, there was this huge billboard of an all girl group calling themselves the 'Spice Girls'. Few weeks later I learnt that Spice Girls is a sensational hit in Britain and their famous single, "Wannabe" was topped at all radio charts. I couldn't resist myself to become one of their fan too and between five of them, I liked Geri Halliwell because of her sexy body (there's nothing wrong with adoring another woman's body right? :-D). Geri was known as the Ginger Spice due to her auburn-coloured hair while rest of the group are the famous Victoria Beckham aka Posh Spice, Emma Bunton aka Baby Spice, Mel. C aka Scary Spice and Mel. B aka Sporty Spice.

One day that I always look forward to in a week, excluding weekend is Friday. If not mistaken, our company introduced 'casual Friday' in 2008 and I have been wearing jeans almost every Friday to 'fully utilise' the freedom given. Lately I have been 'using' Friday to experiment with different looks and style. I have shared with you my colour blocking Friday and pastel Friday but I have also tried rock chic Friday, bling bling Friday and many others. This is literally related to Spice Girls because each of their nickname reflects their personality and style; and so does my casual Fridays.

Today, I came to office in something I have not worn for ages and something that I never worn on Friday... and they are:

My Sporty Spice look: Adidas sweatshirt, Guess cuff watch + Coach sneakers

I know, it is not 100% sporty but I'm not playing sports anyway. Believe it or not, I have received remarks from few colleagues about my sporty look. Even our VP noticed it and commented about my sweatshirt, saying "eh, cantikla baju you" (nice top)...hehe thanks Doc! 

That sweatshirt is from Adidas World Cup 2006 collection for Deutshcland or Germany. I started supporting Germany that year and it was not because of Michael Ballack but the team spirit that Germany players had. I also support Portugal and I admit it is more because of Cristiano Ronaldo but for Germany, it was different. During the World Cup that year I was involved with TM CSR project so I had to stay in Jeli, Kelantan for a week. My then boyfriend now my husband picked me up at the airport and surprised me with this sweatshirt that I'm wearing. I really like it because of the sentimental value and also the design so I rarely wear it to preserve its condition, especially that it is white in colour. This morning, after several years I felt like reminiscing those sweet memories and decided to wear it.

Due to age factor, I realised that I'm wearing more feminine dressing nowadays because back in the days sneakers defined my casual attire. I never wear sneakers on casual Friday because the actual dress code is smart casual and I prefer heels or pretty ballerina flats but I break that rule today. I bought that Coach sneakers in its KLCC boutique with Nor and I love it to bits.

So that's it and now I'm thinking whether I should replicate the next Spice Girls. Hrmmm... what should I be next? Ginger is definitely out of the way so should it be Posh, Baby or Scary?

:: still in memory ::

02.05.2011 - 02.11.2011
It has been 6 months since we lost our furry baby, KiKi. Half a year has passed by and at this point I really have to accept the fact that we are not going to see KiKi again. Nothing could stop us from thinking about her. Although we have slowly moved on, there are few things that we still couldn't do like eating fried 'selar' fish, eating instant lasagne, going to kuey tiow shop in ttdi jaya and few other places that we used to go with her. All of these bring strong memory of her and no, we have not passed beyond that yet. Although I don't mind giving our new kittens playing with her scratching post and have her 'pink crib' carrier, there are still things that are still preserved especially her pink fluffy bed and these...

Those are KiKi's tops and they are still hanging at its usual place. The first top that we bought for her is the pink-white stripes shirt with 'queen checkmate' wording and it's hubby's favourite. My favourite piece is the pink polka dot dress though because KiKi looked so girlish in it. I always tell Ady about the cat we used to have. The cat who accompanied his Mama most of the time when he was still in my tummy.

I wish the three of us will meet her again...if not in this world, in heaven still do but in the meantime KiKi will always be remembered. I miss you, KiKi and I wish you are safe and healthy, where ever you are. You have cherished our life and we thank you for every colourful moment you gave us.

:: did u know - gaddafi trivia ::

Let's take a break from talking about fashion, beauty, daily activities, et cetera et cetera...

Just a short one though.

The world was shocked knowing about the death of Muammar Gaddafi, the Libya's head of state who was killed after being captured by the Libyan fighters two days ago. I didn't know much about him earlier so when I was discussing about his death with my colleagues on Friday morning, I searched the Wikipedia and we were surprised to find that...

Muammar Gaddafi

.......was born in 1942

.......started ruling Libya in 1969

.......ruled Libya for 42 years

.......died at the age of 69

Repetitive numbers! What a coincidence, isn't it? 

A bit creepy too *goosebumps*
