Subdued

Oh hello February, why so fast? Just like that and one month down? Anyway, It's official I.REALLY.LOVE.THIS.PAIR.OF.SHOES. Haha. I know, I'm stating the obvious. Just please don't get tired of seeing them ok cause I sure won't. :) 

Enough of the overrated shoes. Let's move on to my outfit - "Subdued" it is because my color palette was kind of conservative, plain and toned-down. So I thought its the best time for my very pink Nixon TimeTeller to shine and pop from all the grays and blacks.

Lets Get Physical

Well, it wasn't really my plan to go on with that all sporty vibe, or maybe yes because of the obvious evidence, I'm not sure. Bottom line is, I want to feel comfortable with my outfit yet look edgy in it so I wore clothes with textures and prints. On being comfy, how could you go wrong with sweater, athletic shorts and a pair of wedge sneakers right?

Sweater: Topshop

By the way, speaking of prints, the trick on doing leopard on leopard is you keep the rest in your outfit not as bongga (extravagant). Also, make sure that they're not clashing prints ie. one is subtle while the other one is loud like how I'd done it here or one print is smaller than the other.

Sequined shorts: Forever 21/ Leopard printed tights: Topshop

 Bag: Forever 21

 Bracelets: HappyBoon

Wedge Sneakers: Promod

  

Ok I've got issues. My main concerns are: 1. I should've chosen a different spot for my outfit shots because my shirt kind of blended with the background and 2. Maybe its better if I wore my brother's hat as well - the whole look would be a killa swag ya know. :) lol

PS. I also wore this to our mini "photo-shoot". A sample campaign advocacy we are doing for a cool eyewear brand which the company I belong to distributes. Will see if I can post that here in my blog.

Enjoy the rest of the week! God bless!

Mixed Media

Denim, florals, pastels, neons, aztec, metals, studs, leather, suede and spikes; you will find them all in my outfit. When different materials are combined all together in an artwork, they are labelled "Mixed-media" (ok, not that I'm one best example of an artwork).

Floral Shorts: Topshop

Arm Candies:  HappyBoon

 Aztec Nail Art - I'll find time to blog about how you can do this at home! Did it myself. Don't worry, it's not manually painted. :)

Bag: Forever 21

 Wedge Sneakers: Promod

Hah! after I bought this pair of shoes, I wore them for 3 straight days already. Loving it so much because aside that it is "swag" (lol) there these 2 major factors - extra height and comfort. Just what I needed. Anyway, these whole outfit is something that I could wear everyday. Casual yet edgy, comfortable chic and very me.

Grungy

 

Praise God for a very very good weather in Manila these past few days. I love that it is just partly sunny during the day, not scorching and there's this cold breeze during the night. Makes me want to spend more time with my bed and pillows. The best part? I could wear my sweaters again! :) Last December was just like Summer, so didn't enjoyed the weather as much. What's happening with mother Earth?

Wedge Sneakers: Promod

I've got a thing for comfortable-chic shoes, when I found one I tend to overuse them and afterwards get sad when they are ruined or something. Speaking of which is the wedge sneakers trend - which I really love! I know the trend has been around for a while now and I got frustrated when I wasn't able to get a pair from Topshop or Forever 21 last year because they were so in-demand that time. This pair I got from Promod just recently were a great substitute if you can't afford pairs from Isabel Marant, Giuseppe Zanotti or Marc by Marc Jacobs like me. They're not as luxe but they definitely do the same trick in fashion. Honestly, if i can, I'd love to have more in different colors like these pictures below that I collected from random sites typing "wedge sneakers". :))

 Well, we will see. For now, let's be happy with what we got. :))
