The weird part is, i didn't realise it till sometime end of last year that i did not have any clothes in Pink...let it be modern or traditional. It was during a 9 days temple festival i first thought about it. While working on my computer and thinking about which saree i should wear to temple that evening, for some reason i felt like wearing something pink. Then i tried to recall if i had any pink sarees...i have blues...greens...reds...browns...whites...blacks ...gold ...purple and every other shade but NO PINK !! I was quite surprised that i have been neglecting this ONE colour girls wear the most !! And also ...its not because i don't like that colour. I simply neglected it for no reasons. The only reason i could think of was probably because of the common believe among some Indians that Pink doesn't suite those with darker skin tone. But even that wasn't truly the reason...i just simply did not pay attention to that colour ..that's all !
So, on that day i decided to add some pink to my wardrobe. But i have not bought any sarees yet because i already have a few new sarees i got when i went to India which i have not worn even once yet and i wasnt going to shop for more. But i decided that if i was going to get a saree for any event it will be PINK for sure :D
After that day, not surprisingly i bumped into people wearing pink everywhere ...hahaha yeah it was weird how i noticed so many wearing pink around me, even guys !
Then, about a month ago i had very beautiful dream....
I was sitting down on the floor of an ancient Hindu temple, lighting up some oil lamps all by myself. It was very quiet and serene. I was alone. And i was wearing a beautiful soft pink saree with big polka dots. While i was lighting up the lamps, i sensed someone walking pass. When i looked up i saw my dance teacher/friend Nishah standing right beside me, looking at me and smiling, also wearing a soft chiffon like pale pink saree but it was a plain one without any designs on it. When i smiled at her, she nods as if to approve my pink saree . Then she just walks away leaving me smiling in my sleep.
When i woke up, i truly felt sweet within. There was something about that dream that was totally calming and peaceful. There were no words exchanged. Just the smiles and the feeling, it was magical.
I wasn't surprised that i was wearing pink in the dream coz i was thinking so much of the colour in the past months but i wondered why the polka dots.. since polka dots are not my fav either. I never wore polka dots probably since i was just a child. So why polka dots. Strange isnt it ??
So, now i am thinking of my next saree to be Pink and also with polka dots ! :D
And while i was chatting with friends about this whole thing, they all told me to wear the colour and assured that it would suit me!
Then about two weeks ago, while hubby and i were at a shopping complex, just window shopping, a blouse catches my eyes !! Guess what? ...it was PINK with Polka dots :D and the price was very reasonable...i just HAD to buy it! It was definitely calling my name! So hubby asked me to try it on and he loved it too! so...here's me with my first EVER PINK POLKA DOTTED blouse :)
So, how do i look ?? :P
