The big temptation

Wednesday, November 15, 2006

My company's annual dinner is coming up in 2 weeks. I'm quite excited about it. In my 7 years of working life, I've NEVER attended any annual dinners! One of the group I worked for used to be quite lavish and held annual dinners and such. But since I joined, things changed due to the sluggish economy back then. Blame it on bad timing that I missed out on all that.

So when my current company announced the annual dinner coming up next month, I was thrilled and wanted to experience it. "Jakun" or not?

The event is gonna be a formal one and I was thinking of wearing something simple in black. It's the safest colour to wear and you can't go wrong being under or over dressed.

Then this evening we walked pass Beatrice Looi's boutique while on our way to dinner. The window display caught my eye.

Which girl could ever miss the hint of a sale, right?


Is this a message that I should dump the "going black" idea and choose from one of these beautiful pastel masterpieces??


As soon as the idea entered my mind, I was also quick to remind myself a big NO-NO! I gotta keep in mind Point #7 of this post. Whether it's a good reason or not to refrain from buying more clothes, I think it's good to save on the wallet and just go black and commando.

I made a wise decision not to stop and step into the shop for a peek, didn't I? Tell me that I did...
