Blair Waldorf Headband Mania | Saturday, July 19th, 2008
Posted in Fashion Accessories, Stylish Observations, Manila Street Fashion

The subject of this current fashion mania revolving around the now infamous bow headband popularised by Gossip Girl character, Blair Waldorf, has been raised by tv series fans and fashionistas alike. Admittedly, I wasn’t aware that this little hair accessory has taken Manila ladies for a spin since I have never watched a single episode […]

I thoroughly enjoyed browsing through her Beach Bound - Summer 2008 Collection but with the grey, overcast skies and all the wet weather we’re having lately, I was drawn to her Raindrops more.
Obviously, the Raindrops I’m referring to are the necklaces on the photo. These are part of older collection (June 2007). As much […]

Appeal of Age and Antiques | Friday, May 2nd, 2008
Posted in Vintage Fashion, Shopping Guide, Fashion Accessories, Stylish Observations

These days wherein most women are working towards keeping up with the trends and all things modern when it comes to their personal style, the appeal of age and antiques on apparel and accessories aren’t all that popular. Apart from the fact that we do find it intimidating to collect and relatively confusing to pick […]

Neat Freakin’ in Style | Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008

There are people who find comfort in keeping a room untidy than keeping things in order. Claims that it’s easy to find things underneath all the paper piles and knick-knacks. I’d know. I used to be like that 8 or so years ago. Then I found joy in keeping things in their rightful place. […]

Here’s one more soul-filled personal style successfully spotted and photographed during the NOKIA Soul of the Night Event. You guys should recognise this beauty. I just couldn’t pass up the opportunity to photo document and feature Karylle and her gorgeous body art.

Scarves, scarves, scarves | Tuesday, March 11th, 2008
Posted in Shopping Guide, Fashion Accessories

On my recent trip to Vietnam and Cambodia, I was fortunate enough to spot a few items fabulous enough to be my “pasalubongs” (gifts). I had wanted to buy stuff for myself but I had decided to put my friends first on my shopping list. Unfortunately, I completely forgot to buy even one scarf for […]

New Specs | Thursday, January 17th, 2008
Posted in Shopping Guide, Fashion Accessories

So, I got a bit of a scare last Sunday night when my right eye got massively irritated. Good thing that teh boyfriend’s cousin is an eye doctor and had anti-biotics eye drops at hand, which stabilised my eye a bit. I was advised to take off my contacts and have them replaced or, like […]

Handcrafted Jewelry by Pia Faustino | Friday, January 11th, 2008
Posted in Fashion Accessories, Fashion Designers, Philippine Fashion

I was truly impressed with her talent! Having been in the craft of jewelry-making for over five years — self-taught no less — gives her enough time to test, stretch and perfect her skill, nay, talent! I’m really surprised that she’s only 23 years old!
Pia Faustino invests her time and effort to fulfilling a client’s […]

Wallet-slash-Clutch | Wednesday, January 2nd, 2008
Posted in Bags, Fashion Accessories

I noticed that I’ve been posting about bags/purses quite a bit lately. I reckon this would be my third. And all of them are gifts! LOL. I’m not much of a bag shopper. I may know what sort of clutch to buy but when it comes to handbags, er, I don’t trust myself sometimes.
Anyway, this […]
