A Shade of Monochrome

Bonifacio Global City was wandered around by two travellers (Keith and Ida), one sunny day. It was sunny but windy, hence the untamed presentation of my temporarily straightened mane.

I haven't been wearing colors lately, as many have figured out. But Keith's pastel-grunge look and my monochromatic get-up still complemented each other.

Surprisingly, I managed to wear this look for more than half of the day. I usually wipe my weird-colored lipstick off after a few hours because random strangers give me stares of disapproval (at least that’s what I assume).

I thought to myself, ‘I’m wearing dark lips today. Nobody needs strangers’ approval.’

It was a good day.
