Matador?

When I started to include my kikay side on this blog, I never really thought I'd include fashion as its sub-category. I am very well aware of how big I am, but as I start to lose weight, I think I am gaining confidence, and I know it will still take a lot of exercising and dieting before I can pose like most models do... but for now, allow me to savor this moment.

Whenever my mom and I shop for clothes, we often check the Surplus Shop (SM) because it carries clothes from the USA - allowing me to check something that would fit me. When I saw this red piece of clothing, I instantly liked it and bought it even if it would make look like a big, plump, juicy tomato.

I truly don't know if this one's a very big top or a small dress, but I never really dared wearing it outside the house - in the rare moments that I wore this, I only did because most of my house clothes were in the laundry basket and I simply had no choice but to wear it. I did love it, but I wasn't confident to wear it, because even if it was big, my tummy bulges would still show.

Between then and now, I lost 20+lbs already. I was cleaning my closet one time last week and saw it, so I thought of wearing it. I don't know what's up with losing the weight, but now it looked a little too big for me - especially on my shoulders.

I am not sure if I will include this on my "to toss" box, but I decided to step in front of the camera wearing it.

The shoes I was wearing are my sister's, something she bought at Figliarina during a sale. It was way too high for my liking, but I was glad the shoes were able to take my weight. I just had to walk real careful because I do get a little clumsy at times, I didn't want to injure myself and label it "killer shoes." I don't know how my sister can take such high-heeled shoes, but believe it or not she did attend a blog event at SM Megamall wearing these shoes - and she had to either stand up or walk around wearing these. I salute her.

The earrings were too small to see, but it was a pair of earrings sister and I bought sometime in 2008. It was a cheap pair of earrings at p35, but we really try to take care of it as it was made of threads and quite fragile. I will take a picture of it next time so you can see it up close. :)
