Black and Gold

Had a Fri-date night yesterday at Dusit Thani's Benjarong. The authentic fine dining thai food was delish! While waiting for our orders, I decided to take my outfit shots at the staircase of the gold-adorned hotel, and it worked perfectly with my black elegant dress. I have always loved the interiors of Dusit Thani, all gold, elegant and royalty. I wish to go to Thailand someday, I have heard nice things about it, the shopping, Bangkok, temples and of course their famous Thai massage and foot spa! I can't wait to step into Thailand someday! :)

Friday Night Out

Went to an AdCreate Party tonight, Redtown. It was one of those days when I open my closet and close it again because I have nothing to wear. Sick and tired of my usual pile of clothes, I sat on my desk and began browsing through lookbook for outfit ideas. But instead, I found myself wanting to shop to update my wardrobe. At the last minute, I decided to toss out key pieces that I think will suit tonight's event. And then, voila, I formed a one-of-a-kind look with 3 pieces of clothing from my usual wardrobe.

In this look, I wore an asymmetrical bodycon dress which I think is too short, that's why I decided to throw on a glitter black mini skirt inside to make it longer. It did not just make my dress longer, but also instantly added a unique kind of hem to my dress.

Instead of the usual black asymmetrical dress, I spiced things up a bit by wearing this gold off-shoulder on top of it, giving a peek-a-boo kind of uniqueness to my look.

And this black chain waist band to add shape and attitude to my ensemble.

Kept my accessories simple by wearing similar shades of gold and black. 

I haven't worn these babies for a long time now, and I just knew it would be perfect for my look tonight.

The Upper East Side

Went to a fine dining Filipino restaurant near San Miguel Malacanang for a dinner with high school barkada. Casa Roces, formerly a house which turned into this beautiful old style yet highly sophisticated and classic Filipino restaurant.

This is the cleopatra chair available on the 2nd floor. It comes with a mirror beside it, and facing two beautifully designed bathrooms.

This is the sitting area of one of the function rooms above. So classic high society.

This is the beautifully decorated bathroom I was talking about. Can't resist not taking a shot inside it!

Since the restaurant was a bit formal, I opted for a vintage/classy look with a lace halter top and lace mini skirt, with main hues of black and white. I put on a black belt to add more blacks to the almost all-white ensemble. And then, since I was going for a vintage classic look, why not use these amazing silver shoes with glass heels? Love the femme dainty feel of those! 

This is the lace halter top, with a brooch which gives a Victorian feel to the outfit.

And this is the lace mini skirt which matches the top perfectly.

I added some golds to the look to look more accented and defined. These gold cuff and ring adds the Grecian vibe or the goddess feel to my outfit, which adds more sophistication and class.

These are the ah-mazing silver shoes with glass heels. Got them a few years ago from Hong Kong and barely used them. When I prepared this outfit, I just knew that it is time to bring these babies out.

And this is the gang... JACKI!
