This particular style takes me back to the glory days of punk fashion in the 80s and the staple street fashion of the early 90s. It’s the hippest and coolest thing for young people to wear then. Think rolled up shirt sleeves, bold colours (neon even) straight cuts and boom boxes. Checked deck on the pavement, enough room for some break dancing on the streets.
There are a number of elements to this style that’s worth looking into but let’s just focus on the footwear today. The time for this …

Fashion Day at The Ramp in Glorietta 3, Makati City last night had started out slow for me. Had I felt like shopping, I would’ve browsed through the racks and racks of stylish goodies that are within my reach but my mind was already programmed that I was there to work and that’s it. Silly me. How can one possibly be so un-interested even just to window shop esp since she’s surrounded by all that fashion? Gah. I guess I was just too parched, too tired, and too early for …

It can be a little cliche-ish but what the heck, eh? Plaids are one of the trends that’s making a comeback (at least for the Western Fall season). It’s a bit preppy but it’s pretty nonetheless.
I’ve never bought an item from Maldita, though, I do find their selection sleek and, sometimes, bordering on the cosmopolitan work wear sort but there are notable items that’s easy to style into a more casual urban outfit. For the relatively younger fashionistas (note: ones still in school!), if minis are acceptable then by all …

Just to prove that I’m in a t shirt shopping frenzy, I’d like to let you guys in on my favourite expression of late — “Baby I Like That”. LOL. I seem to be uttering these words left and right, with every instance that my eyes would rest on a shirt. If this is some sort of flu, then it must be some money-draining-but-oh-so-stylish flu. Heh.
Teh boyfriend and I went to MOA last Sunday to watch U23D on IMAX. Awesome experience, I tell ‘ya. But before that, I dragged him …

One of the things I’m thankful for is having a sister who also has an eye for fashion, intentionally or not. Also, that she knows what sort of gift to give me. Hehe. On her recent visit to Manila, I got an early Christmas prezzy — a three-way purse that traveled all the way from Australia.
Let me explain why I called it that way. It’s because it can be used as a handbag, a shoulder bag or a purse or clutch (just take off the strap). I wish I can …

With my frustration in finding the perfect tall, flat boot, my attention is now diverted to a pair of oxford shoes. Believe me, I’ve been searching for weeks and weeks for the boot but I still haven’t found the right one. You can ask teh boyfriend. I’ve hauled his arse from one shoe store to another but it still remains elusive. Sigh.
Along the way, I’ve found myself considering a different kind of shoe. Oxford shoes or something like it. I reckon it’s all due to my new found relationship with …

If there’s one thing you can expect over next few months is the entry of all things in big blocks or panels of colour in clothes. During the Blogger Mixer, the guest of honour, Shai Coggins, came showcasing such style. Her dress is mostly in the purple hue, still quite evident are the horizontal panels in different colours — purple, lavander and brown. It’s a perfect example of what I’m trying to tell you, my dear fashionistas.
But to further illustrate my point, some fashion designers have showcased in their …

I was on my way back to the car with teh boyfriend when we bumped into a couple of his friends outside the Nokia Red & Black Party and one of them was Anna Carlos of OGILVY. I first met Anna one night over at Bonifacio High Street and twas fantastic to see her again cuz this time we were able to chat a bit about fashion and the ever popular tiangge (flea market) shopping. LOL.
Thin belts are quite hot right now and there’s only a handful that I’ve seen …

Tiramisu & Co., Forever 21 Necklace, Sophia Lavander
This is not news for most since it’s been brewing for quite sometime now. I reckon the onset of the craze can be traced back to a couple of months ago, with the fruit and owl pendants made popular by Hollywood celebrities. However, I’m appreciating the fact that pendants are now fast becoming more intricate in detail. Tassles, stones, crystals and assorted trinkets adorn 17″ to 40″ chains. These options make it more flexible in terms of incorporating it into an outfit. Some …

A few weeks ago, I bought this adorable eyelet tunic from this quaint shop, which I spotted in BF Homes.
I’ve always wanted to add something in ‘eyelet’ in my wardrobe and I found the yellow colour so adorable and bright. Yes. I want to brighten up the colours of my collection of clothes. About time, I should say. I reckon everyone should step out of their comfort zones and venture into colourful outfits at some point. Enough of the safecolours and fabrics. Don’t you agree?
Anyway, I’ve already featured an outfit …
