Animal Instinct

Went out on a Saturday for me and my baby's monthsary celebration and also for my new found work. It was not exactly what we have in mind, and our day was mostly ruined by the bad weather, but nevertheless, we managed to come up with last-minute little plans to make up for the lost plans. After a fantastic sumptuous breakfast at Apartment 1B, we found ourselves with nowhere to go and had no ideas to make us both happy, and ended up shopping at SM North Edsa. My baby bought new shoes! Looooovvvveeee them!!!

Current trend: Leopard Print

Topshop polo top. ZARA leopard trousers. Carbon sling bag.

Charles and Keith nude heels. Forever21 neck piece and ring.

Blooming Blossoms

Went for an edgy look today, but toned down with some floral prints and sheer texture. June is the month when the sun goes down and rainy season begins. As of now, Manila weather has been unpredictable everyday. One moment it rains and the next thing you know there's a rainbow in the sky welcoming the sun to be out again. Between these mixed weather signals, I get confused on how to plan my daily outfits. So I opted to meet both the sun and the rain halfway and wore a long sleeves top yet sheer, and a mix of black, metallic, and floral prints.

ZARA sheer polo top. H&M shorts. H&M gold neck piece. 

Forever21 gold cuff. H&M fringe sandals.

Tropical Lime

While mints and pastels are so in this season, I don't remember a fashion report that says limes cannot be a major fashion statement this season. Sure neons are all around, but they are mostly bright hues of orange and yellow. This time, I wanted to make lime as my color of the day. 

I was feeling so sweet and flirty that day that I decided to wear something that represents my mood. I went for a simple sheer polo top and floral shorts to show my spontaneity and the fun quirky side of me. 

I did not want to be too girly or too lazy that day because I had to go do errands and work, so I chose a sheer long sleeves top to tone down the casualness in my look.

I chose this necklace because it matches the color of my floral shorts. It's elegant and gives an oomph to my top and shorts outfit. I love this necklace, currently my favorite neck piece because it's two-toned!

I still stuck to my regular accessory - a watch. I really cannot live without wearing a watch because I am a control freak when it comes to time management, and so I need a watch to constantly remind me and monitor the time. Especially that day was not a rest day to me, I could not go out of the house without it.

I wore this cute checkered wedges instead of flats to avoid looking so "weekend"-y. And it's still fun and quirky with the checkered print.

What do you think of my look?

TOPSHOP sheer polo top. ZARA floral shorts. C&A sunnies. Ever New neck piece. From Bazaar bangle. Tissot watch. ZARA wedges.

Playboy Bunny

Fall Winter 2012 trends are fast approaching. Black leather, metallics, and masculine shapes... It's a season to celebrate the power of women. Since it is officially June, start of rainy season in the Philippines, I started updating my wardrobe and lookbook with Fall Winter trends, and put out my black leather vest and metallic shorts in front. 

I feel this outfit as Lady Gaga-ish, with black ensemble and the metallic silver neck piece. Also a bit Tomb Raider-ish, and put on a braid Lara Croft number on my hair do. I did it myself. This is my current obsession. I have realized that I really suck at fixing my hair for events or dates or just hanging out with friends, and I am now trying and experimenting hairstyles that I could do easily. I did this by putting all my hair on the left side of my shoulders, then divided my hair into three sections. Then, criss-crossed the three sections to form a braid. Finally, I put on some braided hair ties from Goody, and hair pins to keep my loose hair in place. 

I matched a silver neck piece to my studded black dress which was used as a top. Then I put on some rings to complete my look.

Honestly, I failed the "woman-on-top" look that I was trying to achieve in this outfit because I was on the rush in the morning. I forgot to wear pumps instead of these silver metallic flats. Oh boy, the next time I will try to plan my outfit, including shoes, the night before. Hehe!

TOPSHOP body con dress (used as top). H&M shorts. FOREVER21 vest, rings.

H&M neckpiece. THE RAMP flats. Aldo ring.

What do you think of my Playboy Bunny number? =)
