Strangeness and Charm

This is what I wore to one of my high school teacher's wedding sometime July of last year. If I remember it correctly, I bought this piece at Tango during one of our summer shopping sprees. If you have noticed, floral print is really my thing. I love it because it instantly gives me that girly vibe almost making me feel like a very pretty tulip. With all the color blocking and experiments today, I decided to just pair my outfit with a wedge which I bought at VNC with the same color scheme as my dress for a change. 

Well, that's all for now. Toodles! :)

Learning to Breathe


Hello there blog friends!! What have you all been up to these past few months?
Well, I've been really really busy now that I'm back in school. Yes, you read that right! My parents eventually agreed and allowed me to pursue Medicine. Yaay! 
Hmm, I'm just dropping by to write this short entry. :)

So, this was the outfit I wore during the feast of our town. The feast is being held on May 2 (yeah, very long overdue post. I know.. ) and it's one of the celebrations wherein I really take time to doll up.

I bought the pieces at The Ramp Crossings last summer. We have this annual shopping trip during the summer solely for the nine-day novena and the feast. (Prolly the last shopping trip we will have for the whole year too. boooo!) It's like tradition. The sandals is from VNC. I just love this shop because they have durable foot wear, reasonable prices and great promos and discounts!

I chose this outfit because the celebration would last until sun down and I thought it's the perfect day-to-night outfit. Don't you think?

You can also find this look on LOOKBOOK. HYPE?
Thanks for your time. Toodles!

Begin Again


Hello there blog friends! It's been a very long while since I updated this blog, eh? Well, I've been fashionably lazy lately. hmmm is there such a thing? Haha Anyways, I'm sharing with you an outfit I wore during the feast of our town a month ago. I saw these pieces displayed on a mannequin at the shop and I totally fell in love with it. It shouts my personality and take on style. Simple. Conservative. Chic. Both pieces were bought at Plains&Prints. 


For the longest time, I've been searching for the "perfect" basic (white/cream&black) flats. I wanted the simple but a standout kind. And now that search is over. (well, I still lack the black one). I bought this at a shop called Dorothy Perkins for a reasonable price. It was my first time there and they have items that really caught my eye. I will certainly be coming back once my wallet recover from hunger. :))

Now, I leave you with this feel-good song by Colbie Caillat. Thank you for reading! <3


PS. You can also find this outfit at Lookbook. HYPE

Love in Tagaytay

-A SUPER LATE POST-
Last January, my family and I finally set foot in Tagaytay! My family doesn't really travel much because my parents have a lot of obligations at work and they just can't leave anytime. Anyways, we were there to attend a wedding reception. It was held at Hacienda Isabella which is owned by Kuh Ledesma, a famous singer here in the Philippines. We stayed there for 2 days and a night, and I would like to share with you the outfits I wore then. =D
FIRST DAY
I know animal prints are so in these days, so here's an animal printed top which I paired with a vibrant pink cropped pants. =D
NIGHT OUTFIT
During the reception, I wore this long purple dress. I had this tailored three years ago for my cousin's 18th birthday. I was really amazed that it still fits me! =D
LAST DAY
I wore a cotton candy pink top, which I bought at Glam Zone Boutique (Please check my previous post for the link to their shop). I love pink and brown together so I decided to pair it with a light brown pleated skirt which I bought at Kashieca. And for my foot wear, I wore a dress shoes that would perfectly match my top. =D
You can all find this looks on LOOKBOOK. Just click on the links below. Thanks!
I leave you now with this song I heard during the wedding which instantly became a favorite! Enjoy! And Thank you again for your support!

Boutiques

So here I'm wearing what I believe is a Palazzo Trouser. I bought it at Wearelse, one of the longest running fashion boutique here in Dagupan. I paired it with a plain white tee, because I don't want to steal the thunder of the trousers! Haha I want it to stand out, 'coz it deserves to! It's made of a soft and light floral material. I love it so much because people told me I looked tall in it. For my foot wear, I used a t-strapped heels which I bought for only Php 400.
You can also find this look on Lookbook!
I've finally watched the movie Patch Adams and it gave me hope to still pursue my dream of becoming a doctor someday. It made me realize that no one is ever too old to study Medicine and that dreams really do come true if you strive for it. Anyways, here I'm wearing a peter pan collared top which I bought at Glam Zone, a new fashion boutique here also in Dagupan and is owned by a relative.I love collared tops so this is surely a favorite.

These boutiques are also open for online shoppers. Here are the links;
You should totally check their Facebook pages!

Yellow

Okay. I have two confessions to make. 
First, I get bored easily. I feel like I have Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) minus the hyperactivity. Second, I want to do a lot of things, like a LOT. I want to read books. I have books lined up already just waiting for me to read them. I love to sing. I want to make covers and share whatever I think I have. And more! But we all know we don't have all the time in this world to accomplish what we want, that gets in my head so I decide on what to do first, but I end up not accomplishing anything at all (like updating my blog). Tsk.

But NOW, I decided to update it. SO here it goes! :D
Brand New Day
This dress was given to me by my Aunt who also happens to be my Ninang (Godmother) as an initial gift for passing the Medical Technology Board Exams last September. She saw that I was fond of wearing dresses
so she opted to give me one.
You can also find this look on Lookbook! Hype?

The End is Where I Begin
One of my favorite tops! I always get a "feeling" or "vibe" whenever I put something on. I'm pretty sure you know what I want to say here, right? And with this top, I feel like I'm from the Upper East Side. Hahaha! Getting that "Blair Waldorf" vibe again. teehee! She really is a style icon to me! =D
You can also find this look on Lookbook!

 Notice what the outfits have in common?
Both have my favorite color in them - YELLOW!

As much as I love the color, I also love the song YELLOW popularized by Coldplay so I made a cover of it. And I want to share it with you all!

Thanks for reading and listening! <3

Words Can't Bring Me Down

Hello blog friends! =D This has been in my drafts for a long time now. I just want to share another outfit I wore during the first day of November. :D If you have been visiting my blog, you know that I already have a post about my outfit during that day (One of Those Days). For your information, this was my morning outfit. =D
I love this top because in spite of it's sleeveless cut it's not really that revealing and it passed the conservative standard of my father too! :D That's why I bought the same piece but in a mustard color.
I know. I know. I'm fat! Haha But I'm okay with it. Everyone's beautiful. Agree? =D
Top - SM Dept Store
Cropped Pants - Kashieca
Here's a beautiful song for all my beautiful blog readers!<3 Thanks for the support!

Lovely Tonight

Hello blogworld! =D
I want to share this outfit I wore to work one time. I feel very girly that day so I decided to wear a skirt. :D It's one of my fave skirts actually. It has a polka dot pattern. <3
My sister had this chunky pink necklace for quite sometime now. I found it kept in a drawer when I decluttered our room. I really didn't like it at first until I saw Blake Lively wearing chunky pieces in Gossip Girl. Thanks to her this necklace won't be sitting inside a drawer anymore. =D
Here's a photo of Blake Lively, as Serena of Gossip Girl, wearing one of her chunky necklaces. :D

Brown Polka dotted Skirt - Kashieca

No Envy, No Fear

Hello dear blogfriends! :D
I've read that wearing big belts can make you look like you have a small waist, which I obviously don't have. So I tried it. And what do you guys think? :D Did it do the trick?
I wore this outfit during our first day in Manila when we went there for my oath taking. I had already posted my outfit on the second day on my previous post. :D I totally forgot about the first one. Haha!
Before we left the house, I got reprimanded by my father because he thinks my skirt is so short. And so far it's the shortest item I got in my wardrobe. :D Living with a conservative father and brothers can have it's downside for some, even most, but I like them just the way they are because it's one of the things they do that makes me feel loved and cared about. :D
This post is entitled No Envy No Fear because it's one of the many songs I love. It's by Joshua Radin. And I really think that each one of us should have no envy and no fear in our hearts. It's a key to happiness. :D
Here it is! Enjoy! :D

PS. You can find my outfit in Lookbook too! :D

Tie the Knot

For my blog picture I use a Canon DSLR. :) really not familiar with the model. :D
Belts are certainly one of my obsessions at the moment. :) If you ask me, always buy the basic colors - brown, black and white both based in silver and gold so that it can match with jewelries.. :) Every woman loves their bling. :) Then go crazy with colors after. :)
The belt's too big (long?) for me. :) why? 'cause it's borrowed from my brother. :) haha
This sailor-inspired look is definitely one of my favorite outfit! :)
Top - Kashieca
Skirt - Kashieca
Shoes - Lacoste
Watch - Swatch
