#Pink's Taiwan OOTDs
8:51:00 PM
Hi guys!
OMG, this post is so backdated i can't even *but expect as crazily backdated posts like this, expect them abundantly LOLOLOL* explain... Like i said in my Bali OOTDs post, i plan to do this kind of travel OOTDs posts whenever i couldn't show you proper OOTDs in the actual travel posts. It serves as a journal for me and to help guide any of you (who're interested) to dress properly for those destinations (in the weather at the time that i went, of course).

It serves as a journal for me and to help guide any of you (who're interested) to dress properly for those destinations (in the weather at the time that i went, of course).
Now, this is my OOTDs compilation of our Taiwan Trip from August last year (don't choke. I still have OOTDs from longer that i kinda forgotten about but still want to post :p) and it was at the PEAK of summer. It was super HOT, summers in Surabaya is nothing compared to that summer in Taiwan -___-.
First thing first, flying outfit :
I almost always wear the same style whenever i'm flying, comfy long tops, tights/leggings and sneakers! |
Carousel Long Top : Online, Patterned Legging : Mangga Dua, Jakarta, Bag : Fiorucci |
FOTD. Told ya i just changed my eye shadow into a baby pink one hahaha |
Sulley Hooded Top : Giordano, Grey Skort (yes, i re-wore it, couple of times. Whatevs, you can't be 100% hygienic when you're traveling :p) : Magnolia, Yellow Knitted Cardi : Online, Sneakers : Nike, Turquoise Sunnies : New Look. Wore it on the way to Hua Lien and the night market |
Ruffled-arms Inner : Forever 21, Popeye Tank & Shorts set (it's actually a couple set, i gave the Olive Oyl's to #Undecided but she said it was too tight for her *sigh*) : Online, Fedora Hat : New Look, Pink Floral Slippers : Sungei Wang, KL. Wore it the whole day at Hua Lien (Part 1, Part 2) |
Even though i wore that skort a lot in this trip, i also packed some girly dresses because let's face it, i'm the girliest girl there is and i feel the most like myself whenever i'm wearing them! (Yep, i went to Taroko National Park which required us to walk a lot and even some minor climbing in a dress, LOL) That's why outfit #5 and #6 are both Zara dresses (that i bought in Jakarta when i went to that "business trip". It's actually very uncommon for me to wear something that i just bought, i usually hoard them for months, or more accurately years before i wear them-simply due to the fact that i have hundreds of unused new clothes queuing to be worn... And i hate to wear the stuffs that is "trendy" coz everybody's wearing them too!)!
Floral Cotton Dress : Zara. Sorry, i didn't realize that the material was super easy to crease!!! And please don't mind my super bloated tums, the last time my tum got that big was when i was 7 months pregnant LOLOLOLOL. Mainly water retention and wind (that i peed out within 2 days after i got back to Indonesia. WTF i know, so weird). I may have gigantic arms and thighs, but a big tummy is definitely not something i am used to :p. I wore this the whole day until Shilin too! (i am not your typical "Life's too short to wear one outfit everyday" kind of fashion blogger, obvi) |
My constant companion in that trip : the New Look fedora hat! And ice cream of course, i think i consumed ice creams almost everyday when i was in Taiwan, can't stand the cray cray heat! |
My fave outfit, outfit #6!!! Super simple but girly and feminine, just the way i like it... |
White Chiffon Dress : Zara. Wore it to to Good Cho's and Tamsui! |
The chiffon dress was light, airy and totally perfect for the crazy Taiwan heat! Anyway, to emphasize the fact that i don't really check the stuffs that i bought at all, i didn't even know that the back of the dress was completely sheer (that you can see my striped navy bra clearly) until half the day when i accidentally got a glimpse of my back on Taipei 101's bathroom mirror! LOL. That sheer back only makes me love this dress more!
The last outfit... i didn't planned carefully. What i thought was a dress *yes, i packed half blindly, just grab whatever i thought would work and be done with it. I wish i am a more careful planner, but i am just not LOL* turned out to be a long top. Thought i could just wear it with a tights and be done with it, but obviously it was too short *LOL*. I wasn't armed for this wardrobe malfunction so i just wear my security shorts and act like it's part of a carefully planned outfit. Nobody made a comment about my strange outfit (i guess they're just used to me looking crazy...) so i think it was not that cray?
I also completely forgot that our flight was very late at night and dressed for a cold airport/airplane, not weighing in the fact that i still had to roam Taiwanese melting heat the whole day in the very same outfit! LOL. So this last outfit is actually somewhat a "What not to wear" in the peak of Taiwanese summer!
Again, no clear picture of the outfit, i think i looked to crazy to take a decent OOTD pic :p. Black Inner Top : Random FO in TP, Bunny Long Top : Online, Patterned Tights : Mangga Dua (Jakarta) |
And that's it! My advice if you are traveling to Taiwan at the peak of summer? Wear comfortable, airy and light outfits! LOL. Sadly i am not one of those fashionistas that still dress up to the nines with different bags/shoes/accessories every day to make sure they still look stunning in their travels, i prefer to pack as light as possible and dress as comfy as possible as well, but i do try to look decent!
Hope you enjoy this post and learn from my mistakes on what NOT to wear! LOL.
Toodles,

I have almost the same fedora hat. It's best to wear in summer. How hot is hot? You should have brought sleeveless shirts as well. :D
ReplyDeleteIt was around 39 degrees at the peak? A lot hotter than what i am used to (but i mostly stay inside a full air-conditioned rooms in Indonesia anyway LOL). Well yeah, i have huge arms and sleeveless anything is not an option for me haha
