Styles

Classes ended for me a few days ago so finally, it's hello summer vacation for me! :)
This is what I wore to the last washday of the school year. I had one (my last for the sem!) exam that day and if you don't know this already, one tidbit about me is that I like to dress up on exam days that fall on washdays. Why? Cause if I bomb the exam, at least I'd look good but if I don't, then better. Beauty and brains, dibaaaa? (bodynalangkulang) Haha.

Orchid You Not

Since it's graduation season (meaning the new graduates will soon be joining the work force), I thought of giving outfit ideas for the young professional. This one is for the yuppie working at a creative firm, meaning no strict dress codes. You're free to express your creativity and personality through your outfit. Think advertising, publishing, styling, and possibly, PR. 

Liberalia

Hello once more!

Can you believe it's been almost 2 weeks since my last post? If you haven't noticed, chances are you're still a student, like me. Haha! It's March madness, as I like to call it. We are down to the last couple weeks of school and there's school work we have to do left and right. Thankfully though, the stars have aligned for me tonight and I (miraculously) have nothing major to submit tomorrow. :)

Leather and Studs

SOOO, have you noticed the new look? :)

And by new look, I meant the new look of my blog I mean. :)

It rained the whole day yesterday here in Davao which forced everyone to stay home for most part of the day. It was good in a way though that it forced us to be productive.  For one, it got my sister to start working on my blog. The fact that the header changed is good enough for me--I just wanted it to change!!--but watch for other little changes along the way as well. :)

Preppy

Remember in my last post, I said that I'd be using and abusing this maroon skirt? Well here it is, making a consecutive appearance. I used to be really conscious of whether people would notice that I repeat my clothes since I'm supposedly a fashion blogger but I've come to realize that for one, I blog not for the sponsorships therefore it'd be unrealistic to wear different clothing all the time and two, I think this fact that I repeat clothes is the thing that makes me "human" (or in celeb-speak, "reachable"). This is probably also the fact that makes me different, because at least with a limited amount of clothing I am able to remix styles and create different kinds of looks. Besides, I'm just reaaaallly picky when it comes to clothes. When I buy clothes (especially more expensive pieces), I just have to be able to wear it in more than 7 ways.

Comeback Kid

 The past two weeks were probably the longest I went on without updating my blog. As you know, I try to keep it a week tops without blogging. I've promised to try to blog as much as I can since it was our semestral break but I was busy. Ironic how I get to blog more often during school days when I'm supposedly busier, right? Anyway, I'm sure most of you didn't miss me as much since you all probably have been enjoying your own breaks. *drama*

The One that Got Away

 

So I am wearing this pair of pink pants in two consecutive posts. This reminds me of the time I wore my blue blazer thrice in a row as well. I feel slightly embarrassed about it. 

But this wasn't supposed to happen.

Pink Panther

This is gonna be a really quick post (or not, depends on how I feel...or how fast I can simultaneously think of something intelligent to type). Hahaha. 

Anyway, by the time this is posted, I'll probably be in Manila, having dinner with Cheyser whom I haven't seen and talked to properly in a year now.  :P

Socially Awkward Penguin

I spend A LOT of time in the library which is why it should come as no surprise that this was one location I had in mind for an outfit shot. I'm at the lib so much that the guards, circulation staff and internet reservation staff know me already. What can I say? The library is a haven for people like me who have no permanent hang-out. Being an irregular student (I have both 3rd and 4th year subjects) in a school that has block sectioning, there are times wherein my classmates have classes when I don't so where do I go? Naturally, to the library. Alone.

Grunge Glam

This is what I wore to the day of my actual birthday last Friday. In my last post, I've written in detail how I've spent the day (you can refer to that if you wanna know haha), This is what I wore to lunch with my family and to the Bauhaus event afterwards. To me, Bauhaus gives off a sort of rock/grunge vibe and that's what I had in mind while picking out the outfit.

This month (my BIRTHDAY MONTH *yaaaay*) is probably one of the busiest yet best months of my 2013. I'd just gotten back from my 3-day retreat yesterday and I woke up to a busy day. Awhile ago, I had a shoot for FBTV. And actually, I just got back from my cousin's surprise debut party. I had to leave earlier cause tomorrow, I'll have my talk at NCCC and then on Monday, exam week starts. How about that for a busy birthday month? I'm extremely thankful though, especially since YOU guys helped me reach 100,000 page views!!  I don't know exactly when or how that happened (or who was the 100,000th hit) but thank you. I never imagined maintaining a blog that's reached 100,000 views! So even though it's late, I just had to blog. :) #blessed

Ecologically Friendly Fashion

Where do all the clothes that nobody wants go? 

It's something I've wondered about (especially since I have an Environmental Engineering subject this semester) so I decided to Google it. I was quite shocked to find out what happens. Some are recycled and re-styled. Some are donated. Some are sent to developing countries like ours to try to be sold here. You'd be shocked to know that A LOT are thrown away. Some companies even go as far as shredding the clothes so people cannot benefit from them. It's a tad depressing for the engineer/ecologist in me to imagine all those clothes gone to waste, especially when there are a lot of people who have nothing to wear. You can read the article here.

Pretty Little Liar

Hello from the dead.

Pun intended, seeing as this post was entitled Pretty Little Liar. Of course most of you would know the show's premise--it's about 4 friends and the mystery concerning their friend's mysterious disappearance/death. The show's fourth season recently started though I have yet to watch it, seeing that I barely have much time (or chances OR internet connection) to take outfit photos and blog, much more watch series. I wish I could though. Suits is starting the third season in less than two weeks and I still have 5 more episodes to watch before the season finale. Oh and don't get me started on Revenge and Awkward....cause I am not updated with those either. Le sigh

Third Time's the Charm

While doing school work and cleaning up my files on our computer, I saw this outfit shot which Ayessa and I shot about two months ago, when summer class started. Can't believe I just posted this now, and after two consecutive posts with my trusty blue blazer (Coincidentally, I was with Ayessa also when I bought this in Manila. Haha). Thus, the title "Third Time's the Charm".

Cool With You

Happy Independence Day!

Let's celebrate the anniversary of our country's freedom in a good way (cause usually we end up going to the mall during holidays, right? I'm guilty of this myself :|). So anyway, we don't have school today and I'm kind of sad about it because it was supposed to be the first washday of the school year!! Shallow reason aside (though I'm kind of glad there isn't class cause my Mondays and Wednesdays are hectic! Plus I actually don't have anything to wear yet! Summer class curbed my imagination!) and despite the fact that there isn't any wash day, that won't stop me from not posting a look. So this is the third set of the four joint outfit shot series I had with Heidi.

Think Pink

Hello again!

Three entries in two days? I'm on a blogging roll!! Hahaha. No, just really getting rid of the backlogs.

Anyway, this is what I wore on the last day of summer class (May 23). Since it's the last day, siyempre kailangan um-effort! Siyempre kailangan lumandi malandi (cause it's the last chance to see my your crush at school). Haha. Kidding. half kidding.

On Settling Down

I'm posting this cause summer class ended and I wore this during the start of summer class. Ayayay! Since I now have nothing much to do, I'm trying to get rid of my backlogs haha

Recently, I found out that my best friend the year I studied pre-school at Ateneo was married. Then, when I had lunch with Ayessa, my best friend from that year in pre-school at Stella Maris (who took these photos by the way), we also ended up talking about her plans which involved marriage in maybe the next two years.  Hay kaloka! It was too much for me to process and I'm sorry but this topic really bothered me the whole day.

Reluctant

 

Pardon the mini-hiatus I had (again). It's not that I've been that busy but it's cause I didn't have internet access. My dad is adamant that if we want internet, my sister has to pay for it (cause she just graduated and is taking freelance projects) so until then, we're stuck with the Globe broadband tattoo stick (yes, Globe talaga. In case they want to sponsor me? *wink* haha).

Shocking

Remember how in my last post I said that I wanted to feature the special people in my life in outfit posts? Here's another one. This my friend Heidi from Infinite Playlist. She was my classmate 3 out of the 4 years in high school but we only became really close in college.

Thinking of Titles is the Hardest Part

This is such a weird feeling to have. I've been staring at the computer screen for a while now, pressed for time and I honestly am coming up with a big fat blank right now. Normally, I would have something prepared beforehand to write about but I figured y'alls could use a break from my more intense topics. I can get a little too passionate about what I talk about in posts, right? So serious. Hahaha.
