Accoutrement


Being in ns somehow made me feel less intelligent and uneducated, as though I was a child depriving of knowledge that I covet for, as I was constantly devoid of reading manrepeller on a daily basis (which I used to do, I'm serious). However, thanks to ever perpetual and advancing of technology, I managed to catch a few short glimpse (aka skimming through) my - China branded - Android cell phone, due to the insufficient time and the not so copious amount of battery I possess. To be honest, I have no idea of what I'm complaining about.

Okay, now I remember. I miss the luxury of being behind my 14 inch MacBook, lying down on my commodious and comfy bed compared to scrolling (and trying to miserably zoom and squint my eyes) through my 3 inch(?) cell phone.

Let's get back to topic. Well, reading her post on 'Accoutrementing' did enlighten me on how I am continuously accoutrementing myself with intricate details (equates to #armparty) and keeping my battle ready armor (aka clothing wise; no pun intended to ns) to the minimum. Probably it's because of the you-know-it sweltering weather, or maybe it's also because of my sloth habit - slowly - building up inside me.

Alright, I admit, it's the latter. It was is always the latter. I am just too lazy to be decking in layers of palatial garment on me. I guess I'm slowly starting to find my personal style. That is definitely slanting towards casual chic (but not yet French chic), I suppose? But I presume that somehow or another, my style was already inherently and intuitively defined as it is.



Besides that, reading that post also made me realised how I am heavily influenced by the manrepeller herself, who choses to ignore all odds (aka relationships; but she eventually was unable to repel a man, and social stigma etc), while constantly accoutrementing, decking myself in superfluous amounts of #armparty. Leaving the house without my armparty? Hashtag no. I will feel naked without them. I'm serious. I'm not kidding.

And #obviously my accoutrementing doesn't stop just there. Who said accoutrementing only applied for accessories? Look at my newly bought (considered new since it's not even a month old) Alexander Wang Rockie that have structured and highly defined trademark studs embossed underneath it. Definitely an accoutrement. What about this Lazy Oaf beanie? Definitely another (super adorable!!! The eyes, omg!!!) accoutrement. And guess who made me checked it out of the cart? I'm pretty sure it's obvious.


P/S: Did anyone miss me?? (insert shamelessness here). And yes, I'm pretty much spazzing in the gif.
