Wore this just this Sunday, and I must say, it’s one of my favorite outfits! I have nothing much to say, so what follows are the outfit deets:

Blazer from MANGO | Red lace top from ZARA | Leatherette skirt from PULL & BEAR | Bag from MIU MIU | Flats from ZARA

First of all, I’m not going to say that this post will mark my ‘comeback’ as a blogger, because I don’t think I can live up to my words. Pardon me, but I think I’ve been prioritizing my studies and the time I have left with my classmates now that there are only 3 months left before I finally graduate. *sobs* I still don’t want to graduate.

image

Anyway, enough with the disturbing sobbing. I wore this ensemble just this November 24 to a childhood friend (who doesn’t even remember me anymore)’s debut. I know wearing black is a bit inappropriate, especially since we’re Chinese, but I still pushed through with this black one-sided mullet dress, because it’s the only ‘long’ dress (from MANGO) I had that time that could pass as a ‘long evening dress’. Ouch, I know.

image

And since I didn’t abide by the rules, I chose this bag from CELINE for the whole look, to add a bit of color. 

image

image

My uhmmmmm, ok pose. Please don’t mind me.

image

Did it work? Did it work? *poses* lols. I want your opinions, real ones. Please? Because I felt ‘stunning’ that night, and according to my friends, the whole look is to love! Also, does black look good on me?

image

Shoesies are also from Mango. They were oh-so-pretty but oh-so-painful at times, but of course, I managed very well. *tiis ganda*

image

And since I’m not just a blogger, I got tired. I’m human, too, but mostly I’m a mermaid. (oh my I’m so weird) Oh, and btw, please excuse my blurry photos. Anyway, guys, I have not much to tell anymore, so I’m going to let the photos do all the talking. 

OUTFIT DEETS: Dress & Heels from MANGO | Bag from CELINE | Watch from KENNETH COLE

P.S. Thanks for keeping up! ;)

Tonight, I will be sharing with you yet another goodies post, and I do hope that you haven’t gotten old with this routine of mine yet, because I had so much fun taking photos of these lovely items I’ve acquired this month. So let’s start, shan’t we? Above is my favorite photograph for this whole post because I love how it  sums up all the girliness in me! *wink wink*

image

Oh.. it’s just me and my dreams of having my ears pierced.. don’t mind us, but don’t you just love this pair of earrings?

image

And this barrette? 

image

image

And these lovely bracelets from Forever 21 and Mia Casa?

image

But girliness aside, I’ve also acquired books with such great stories and substance this month, and I’m really really excited to read them all in the coming months!

I’m cutting my word count short because I don’t want to ruin the essence of these photographs, so good bye for now! Oh, and I almost forgot! I will be having a little four-day arm party segment on my blog starting tomorrow, and I really really hope that you guys will like it! :)

Little Black Dress

image

Hello, hello, I am back, for the mean time! Till when? I don’t know, but boy, do I miss blogging! Oh, fret not, I will do my duties well, just prioritizing my studies as of the moment, living life as it should be, making good friends, and relaxing, when I get the chance, of course!

image

 

So, enough chit-chat, and let me tell you about this outfit of mine. I wore this to a night that I will always remember. A night when I was given the opportunity to watch one of the most famous plays of all time, The Phantom of the Opera , in CCP’s Main Theater, four rows from the stage itself. 

image

Knowing that the required outfit was ‘semi-formal’, I planned what I was going to wear 5 days before the day I was to watch the play. I chose a classic from my wardrobe, my polka-dotted dress, and asked to borrow one of my mom’s classics, which you would later on know more about. 

image

Dress? Check. Of course, a girl can not go out without accessorizing, but for this look, I let my shoes and my dress do the talking, so I opted for something minimal, and between my chunky necklace (which I wore in one of my previous posts) and this pretty little necklace, I chose this one, simply because it looks classier and daintier. Or am I the only one who thinks that this necklace is the perfect match for this dress? 

image

Probably the best whole body shot I’ve got for this set, my brother’s hands were shaky! Oh, and by the way, what do you think about my new look? Drop me a line, wont you?

image

So, I guess, it’s time to talk about my mom’s classic piece! It’s this wonderful pair of CHANEL shoes that I got to borrow! How lovely, right? I really think this pair is the focal point in this outfit of mine! 

image

I guess, here’s where this outfit post ends, so, the most cliche question makes its entrance once again, WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THIS OUTFIT OF MINE? DROP ME A LINE! Thanks!

Dress & Bag : ZARA | Necklace : FOREVER 21 | Watch : KENNETH COLE | Shoes : CHANEL

Bid, I do, a happy happy week to everyone!

Lovely, lovely, too lovely for words, and classy, too, but to be honest, this beautiful piece of jewelry reminds me a lot of the chairs I saw in Guangzhou, with almost all of their fabrics being so ‘renaissance-sy’. 

image

I thought twice before buying this, I’m not sure why, but I guess it’s meant for me? Because it reminds me a lot of myself, I guess? But hey, what’s great about this girly piece is that it can also function as a bracelet! Perfect for my succeeding arm parties.

image

To take a break from all the girly-ness, spotlight on this edgy piece from OASAP! I love this for all the edginess it protrudes, and for the feeling of being an instant zebra! Plus, it may look heavy at first, but when it is actually in your hands, you’d know that it isn’t! It can also be folded, that’s why it’d be the perfect accessory to bring when you travel.

image

I guess you could call this a photo of me actually wearing it.

image

And finally, we’re back to being so girly with all the flowery stuff! How lovely! Now, are you thinking what I’m thinking? FLOWER POWER!!! I guess I’m currently inlove with anything floral (except floral-patterned clothes of course, since I’m more of a basic clothing-lover kind of person), so if you do find anything floral that matches my clothing personality just right, let me know! 

image

Oh, rosettes are so in! I love the hue of this little rosette, just the right kind of peach. Plus gold looks extravagantly nice when paired with peach. Agree or agree? *wink wink* 

image

And last but not the least, this little flower crown kind of ring I just got a while ago for a very reasonable price! They also had this in pink and black, but I guess white serves my taste best, thus the choice of color. 

So, I guess that’s all!

Here’s to a happy September! See you really really soon, lovelies!

Good evening, I hear they say that change is good, and rather healthy? You judge? 

Watch out for my new look as it’d be gracing my future outfit posts *wink wink*

Studs & Gems

image

This will be my one and only post for this week and for the first three days of next week for tomorrow starts my Chinese periodical exams, on Sunday I will be taking the UPCAT (omg I haven’t reviewed for it yet), and for the first three days of next week, I’ll be having my English periodical exams (oh the stress), so if you’re kind enough, please bear with me. ;) 

image

 Anyway, I wore this to my little battle this Sunday. I braved the crowded area I was in : SM HYPERMARKET AND FOREVER 21 IN MOA. I know it’s an odd outfit, but considering it was raining sooooo hard, I went out wearing this pretty studded blazer of mine. I know I was a tad bit overdressed…but IDK really. Send me your thoughts?

image

I was supposed to buy some celery for our Deviled Eggs this Monday, but I was sneaky sneaky, so I went to the newly opened FOREVER 21. OMG, it was my first time so it was really overwhelming, and for that, I ended up buying a chunky necklace with pretty gems. Wanna see a clearer view of it? I kind of wore it right away.

image

Here~

image

Supposed to be a clearer photo of my bag, but you see, it turned out to be blurry.

image

And since it was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo hot, despite the heavy downpour of rain, I decided to tie my hair up, only was it too late. Whatcha think about my new spikey ponytail holder? Isn’t it a wonder? 

Anyway, that’s all. I do hope you’d leave me comments on my disqus form~ ;)
