Winged throwback to the 70s and 90s


This is the second bird print I'm getting this year . The first was a macaw print tights from Cotton On , which you can find in a backpost  .
Now this . A pink parrot which I find so quirky .



Yeah , it's a black camisole top known as a flirty cami from Cotton On ( again .....I told you I have phases ) . 

Very 90s in design ( the first time camisoles became accepted as outer wear ) with what seems like 2 layers of frills which gives it a 70s vibe at the same time . 

While wearing it , you don't even realise that the bottom part can pan out so wide . But the best part about this top is , how it catches the wind and dances along with it like a gentle seabreeze. Love it !

Anyway , I certainly feel that I've toned up enough , to make me feel confident about wearing this around town . There's still fatty areas on my upper arms that are visible but I'm happy with my achievement so far , so I'm gonna wear this as a sort of self reward to motivate myself further . I will get there eventually . This all takes time since I haven't been exercising for a period of 15 years or so . Seriously. I did nothing . It's been that long ! 



Here's what it looks like. Very low cut as you can see but perfect for our hot weather .
Daring ? Nah , you can't see my cleavage unless you really look really hard , which still is pretty impossible since I like to pair a soft yellow Forever 21 bikini top with this , in lieu of a regular bra .

The other piece of clothing I picked up is this rather dramatic looking bell sleeve which is an instant throwback to the 70s .
Black again ?
Yep. Predictable colour choice when it comes to my regular clothes , I just like extremely loud and colourful clothing during my workout sessions though . Else , I have so much black , if you put them all in one stack , I wouldn't be able to pick out what I want to wear since they all look like one !



Looks somewhat like the pic below .
I can choose to pull up the off shoulder gather higher , but I'm sure it will look odd if I do so .
Those huge sleeves however made me feel so playful , to the extent that I was sort of flapping my wings in the dressing room after trying it on .
You know what ? I think we're gonna have a lot of fun together .
