pop royalty

I don't know why it struck me as a good idea to wear a sequined top to go for a walk outdoors, but great ideas never wait for opportune moments. You just have to seize them as they come. THUS.

Above, what I would look like before politely declining if Romeo knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring. (Which reminds me of this version of Taylor Swift's "Love Story" sung from Romeo's point of view by Gabe Bondoc. Thanks, Jess!) Although hopefully if Romeo knelt down he wouldn't be at eye-level.

I thought the black and royal blue still needed a pop of contrastive color (obviously one color popping is just not enough for me because I am totally visually insatiable), hence the red leather gloves, which my mom actually keeps in the glove compartment, which is hereby The Cutest Thing Ever.
