Bruneian Blogger wearing all black

They told us to wear all black. Who was I to deny this righteous request?

Black is such a happy colour. A phrase used often amongst us, shadow lovers. I enjoy black, and wear it as often as I can. Furthermore, I try to wear this bowler hat as much as I can. Afterall, it makes me feel like a cool cat. Or Black Cat.

Hence the title of this post.

Rehearsals happened in the drama society I join. For a show postponed until January.

This is my fourth year, and my second year as crew member. As part of crew, we were required to dress in black during the nights in this freezing venue. With the rainy season upon us, layering was an apparent necessity. Grey skies darkened when I took these photos, and not half an hour later, it started to pour.

Thank goodness for sisters taking photos before leaving.

Winged liner and red lip is a universal look, versatile with almost any outfit paired. Yet there is something classic to it when worn with black. A darker shade of class than dark itself. Perhaps that's why it is my go-to-makeup when wearing black. An amazing combination in itself. From Marilyn Manson to Marilyn Monroe.

Consider this Part 2 to the Part 1 of my last post here. While that post is about makeup, this one's all about the outfit. I think I'll start doing posts like these. Makeup/Outfit posts. They tend to be separate of each other in this blog, and I'd like to change that. So watch out for some normal makeup and outfit posts! 

You can find that out on Bloglovin' and check out the giveaway here while you're at it!

What is your go-to-outfit and makeup combo? I'd love to know!

  1. Love love this outfit - even if I won't be able to recreate it right now with the 40 degree heat in Australia! haha. I definitely go all black or black and white when I'm not sure what to wear x

  10. I think doing a makeup and then outfit post is a brilliant idea! And there's something about all black outfit that makes me really happy, I would wear all black all the time if possible but I've been asked before if I'm heading to a funeral. LOL!

  13. I also wear all black at every opportunity. There is something about a dark look and bright lip that just looks so classic. Your makeup always looks amazing - I don't know how you do it!

  14. Jeans and a tee, not quite as fashionable as your look. But winged liner is a must, and a red lip is something I wear often.

  18. You are so right, something about winded liner and red lips. They go so well together and scream classic. Red lipstick intimidates me. It looks great on you, wish I could pull it off like you do. Have I told you I enjoy reading yours posts? You are a great writer darling. Post after post you leave me wow'd.
