Off Duty

Love is in the air, flowers there, chocolates everywhere and cheesy lines are starting to overflow! Yet, I'm not wearing pink or red or something girly in my very "Valentine Post". So anyway, wore this to a typical day-out with my boyf Neil. Every time we hang like casual dining, shopping or just having a cup of milktea, frapp or something I always opt for outfit types like this and I'm sure you've already noticed that.

Since it's Love month and everybody is getting sweeter and all, there's this only one best definition of Love that I would like to end this post with.

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.^{"  -}Corinthians 13:4-7

  

God bless!

Leopard for a Walk

Whenever you're on a lazy-dressing-mode you can always count on one trusty blazer. Throw it over and you're good to go. Basically, clothes I'm wearing here are in their repeat performance many times already. Key is - style them differently, mix and match!

 Blazer and Inner Top: FOREVER 21

My post title is so lame so forgive me. Anyway, love this sweater I'm wearing from Forever 21, it's two-face. I love sweaters and I'm so glad I could wear a lot of it the past few weeks because the weather is so nice here in Manila.

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?

Top: TRF by Zara

 Aviator: Gucci

 Studded Bag: Forever 21

Pants: Topshop

Bracelets: HappyBoon

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. :))

Cat Eyes

Wore this to church service yeasterday in celebration of Grand New Year. If you are a constant visitor of my blog, you have probably noticed already that my style is more of on the comfortable-street-relaxed-trendy-laidback-edgy side rather than the girly-girl-dainty-high-end-classic type. So yah, I don't do "typical sunday dress" on Sundays. 

Aviator: Gucci

 Skirt: K2

I love how this skirt is making a statement on its own. When I first saw it at the Supersale Bazaar last December, I fell in love instantly so even if I kinda said that I am not going to shop, I couldn't resist it and went back to the booth, bought a Fuchsia pink blazer also. :)

Bracelets: HAPPYBOON

Bag with Gold Studs (a gift from le boyfriend): FOREVER 21

 Boots: HK

Oh, have you noticed my newly colored and cut hair? Its not obvious but it has copper low-lights, my hair was so blonde before my stylist Bunny applied it. The copper made it reddish. <3
