dress is c/o Sheinside (also worn here) | shoes are from JuJu Shoes | lipstick is Ruby Woo from MAC
Here's another outfit featuring an over-the-top obnoxious print :) I absolutely love this dress, and I just realised how well it goes with red hair, so I've been wearing it for a few days straight! This is also a consequence of the hot weather - it's been way too hot to wear anything but loose-fitting dresses and sandals lately, and as I'm looking at all my Northern Hemisphere blog friends I have to say that I wish I were freezing and able to layer up - layering allows so much more creativity in one's outfits, plus it looks so snuggly!
So here's something amazing - these guys have created USB devices that are the size of sticky-notes! In fact, they're made from graphene - which, simply put, is an arrangement of carbon atoms that is only one atom thick, and allows the storage of loads of data.
The awesome thing about these data stickies is that it aims to "bridge the gap between the physical and the virtual". The stickies are able to transfer data simply by sticking them onto a receptor surface (called the optical data transfer surface). You can put these on a computer, or a phone - anything that can receive data, really - and the device will be able to read the data that's stored on the sticky.
Still, I wouldn't want to put anything too important on these stickies, without it being backed up elsewhere. So much data is going to go missing if these become a big thing, and I predict a lot of frustration...
Read more about how they work, and other applications of the data stickies on this website.

Such a quirky print!
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how far technology has come! Who knew you can know transfer data just by sticking a 'post-it' on a receptive device! But I will have to agree with you - I think I'll probably keep losing it though :/

I have this dress but have the opposite, I don't know how to wear it in this Dutch winter weather haha! It looks great on you. x
ReplyDeleteNo way! Put a long-sleeved thermal top on underneath and layer it up with a cape coat, and patterned tights. Maybe even a chunky scarf as well. Too easy! :)
DeleteAlso, to add an extra layer of warm, add a cropped sweater as well. cropped sweaters go so well with these kinds of collars :)
Deletelove your hair! so cute:)
ReplyDeleteyour hair & dress are just so perfectly cute!
ReplyDeletethose USB devices are really interesting!! how cool. :)

Erika, what's your experience with SheInside?? I LOVE the clothing but I've heard from so many that it's a ripoff.
ReplyDelete...Who is Erika?
DeleteThey only sponsored me in the past, so I've never actually bought anything from them. Because they were sponsoring me, I got the clothes for free so I thought it was great :) the clothes were usually pretty fine in quality, but they're not from a very good source, and I did accidentally get the wrong clothes sent to me once...
Annika, so sorry! :-) I have a friend named Erika, so I always get the names mixed up. Thanks for the info! I'm still tempted to buy from them..
DeleteHahahah, that's okay :) Hmm, I would probably warn against it. I haven't heard good things from people who've actually bought from them. But good luck if you choose to!
DeletePretty dress!
ReplyDeleteThose sticky note things are so cool! The amount of data that can fit on such a small thing these days is amazing.
ReplyDeleteAs for this dress, it definitely looks awesome with red hair. That print is so much fun.
This teapot dress is the cutest thing I've seen in a while. It definitely made me smile! :)
ReplyDeleteXo, Hannah
