Where are the #OOTDs?

Ever since I last posted something well thought-of (as in serious, honest-to-goodness writing), a few of my friends have been asking why I've stopped posting outfits or #ootds. This amused me because well, I didn't know my outfits were something to look forward to! :)))))

Gifts that Give

Tis the season for gift giving but I think that it'd do the world a whole lot of good if we gave gifts that give--gifts that help our environment, promote a cause or give livelihood to the underprivileged. Here I've compiled a few of my favorites: 

Leyende Beach Bomb Cologne

Php450

Ever since the Leyende event (and ever since I discovered their products), I've grown to like this cologne a lot (I also like their Mother Butter Cocoa lotion, which you can also buy here). It smells so fresh and it smells better the longer it is out! BTW, I am running out of perfume too, so *hint, hint* ;)

You can buy this at Zalora (5% off with TheStyleReactor120), Green Options at Gaisano Mall (for Davaoenos) or through http://www.leyende.com/.

Hola!

I just submitted my final requirement today, which was a plate for Drawing class. I took my last 2 exams yesterday--Statistics and Safety Management, so the submission of the said plate was my get-out-of-jail-free card! Huzzah!!! SEM BREAK!!

Mix and Match

I've always wanted to do a n items, n outfits segment on my blog. Actually, I was supposed to create a wishlist first but then I noticed that I could actually pair all these items up and create multiple outfits from just 5 pieces. So, here are the items which I got from ZALORA:

(1) Camille LAD shorts from Collective.com Php455

2) Donnavie Dress from F. 101 Php799

(3) Jamie LAD skirt from Collective.com Php650

(4) Janelle LAD blazer from Collective.com Php1595

(5) Spandex Ethnic Print Blouse from Terrie Php750

(6) Winnie blouse from Plains and Prints Php1250

Goody Two Shoes

What does one wear to brunch? I have a vague idea so I did what I do in any situation: Ask WWBD. What would Blair do? A little Googling and I found this photo of an episode from the first season.

Blair in a polished top and a skirt.

This is such a goody two shoes outfit! This is something I'd probably take inspiration from when I do a "meet the parents". My sister and I were talking about it last night. I forgot how our convo started but this is what I'm reminded of when I see this outfit post: a "meet the parents" kind of outfit. Mine was the unpolished version though. I noticed that I like having something "wrong" about my outfit to avoid looking too polished. After all, as Marilyn Monroe once said "Imperfection is beauty" :)

Blair wore a printed top and solid bottom but I did it the other way around and paired a printed skirt with my top. I think prints on top make me look bigger. :( Anyway, this was just a throw-on-whatever outfit. It's not bad, right? Sometimes I have outfits that I put together in my mind but they don't turn out as good. I think it's better to grab and go. In this case, I grabbed what was buried in my closet! I rarely wear any of these clothes, but the bag and shoes have had their share of the limelight here in my blog. =))

Hannah took these photos of me in school. I hung out for a bit with my fellow Chem Eng'g students to support Leah at the Karaoke Challenge, as well as check out the fiesta.

GET THE LOOK!

ZALORA: Fashion Fights the Flood

ZALORA presents Fashion Fights the Flood, an event at Skye Lounge on August 15, 2012. Some of the country's best bands have agreed to donate their time and effort to the cause. KC Concepcion will also be selling some of her clothes and 100% of all sales will be donated to the UN's World Food Programme. A 250php entrance fee will be collected at the door which will serve as your contribution.

But if you're not from Manila, you can donate through  ZALORA's site. You can purchase it in 250php, 500php and 1000php denominations. 

Let's all do whatever we can to help! :)
