Yes, howdy folks! LOL.
One of the things I remember about my visits to Baguio when I was little was going horseback riding in Wright Park so can you guess what this particular tourist did? Er, duh. I went horseback riding!
Growing up, I’ve had this fascination with horses and had dreams of owning one (out of my budget, of course). And the last time I was on a horse, I reckon I was around 8 years old. So when I found myself in Wright Park, I just couldn’t let the …

Friday was spent doing errands. Twas esp warm that day (gawd) and I was thankful that I wore a thin cotton dress; grecian-inspired pink dress, I might add. Yea, it’s one of the rare opportunities you’d see me wear pink. Heh. I’m sure glad I rummaged through my closet and found this one. I reckon I bought this dress a couple of years ago, one of my tiangge finds in Ruins BF, and wore to the Clear Black Fashion Show event. I saw it again while I was packing for …

DIY. Sewing. A part of fashion that I’ve always wanted to dip my hand in. It’s actually a strange habit I picked up as I started to buy my own clothes. I tend to buy certain unwearable pieces (in my book) with the intent of altering them to better suit my taste and make them more original. Sort of.
I’ve always done the alterations by hand. With my mediocre talent in sewing and all, I still do it. I guess that’s how I’m built. I didn’t always have the money to …

I attended a family reunion of sorts, welcoming the new additions to the family. I loved the all-Filipino food served in an Al-fresco setting. I played the part of the photographer and listened to one of the most interesting family histories I’ve ever come across. Twas amazing how much old photos were preserved, three quarters of a century old.
Cargo pants I’m wearing is new, originally priced at Php 780.00, I got it for only Php 550.00 at one store in Ruins. I love the drawstring hem and the eclectic pockets …

Yes, that’s no stranger. It’s me now sporting a bob for 2008. I just had my hair cut last night over at F Salon in Greenbelt (super thanks, Phoebe!) and now I’m sitting on a bench at the valet area waiting for the car. We were on our way to a birthday party in Ortigas.
I’m wearing a pair of drawstring shorts that’s a couple of sizes up, hence, it being loose. Can actually pass off as gauchos, yeah? Hehe. It helped that it’s in black, too. It didn’t look too …

I bought these beauties at only Php 50.00 each over at Chick Flick. I loved the varied texture and earring design on each of these stud earrings. I gave in on a whim to buy the black one on the right. It’s so adorable and has this bohemian-slash-vintage feel to it that I couldn’t pass up. I have yet to style it in on an outfit. Will definitely show it off as soon as I come up with an outfit. I actually spotted a dress that will go well with …

I reckon I told you guys about these pendants before when I featured my Chick Flick ensemble. But taking a closer look, I wanted you guys to have the chance to compare the two and, of course, let you in on this fab tiangge (flea market) find. Naturally, I bought it from Chick Flick for only Php 150.00. Chick Flick is a great store that sells fashion accessories at a real bargain and is located at BF Ruins. And, yes. They also sell clothes. Cool, yeah?

I’m big on studs lately. I like ‘em big, too. I admit that the candy earrings are a current personal favourite but these adorable Matte Gold Studs are closing in. Gold accessories are such glamourous things, me thinks. Don’t you agree?
There’s something so vintage about wearing gold and not to mention big studs. They remind me of 70s fashion glam. Probably why I found it a good match for my Scarlet by Cole Vintage. Remember I told you that I used these beauties to accessories when I first wore that …

I reckon it’s quite obvious now that tis the season of accessories. Some may find the current fad a fashion nuisance but I say it’s just good, clean styling fun.
On the roster of fashion accessories is the Cocktail Ring. Why are these adorable rings called ‘Cocktail’? Well, it’s simply because the ring is meant to be shown off esp when holding your drink during cocktail parties. But, of course, the style has ventured into and catered to different reasons and styling ideas now. The ring is simply …

Multi-strand Long Necklace, Metallic Gold Pearl & Beads
Php 200.00 BF Ruins
Quite a mouthful, eh? I just needed to find all the right words to describe the newest necklace I bought from this quaint little stall — it can’t even qualify as a full-pledged shop cuz you don’t go “in” — manned by a young woman, who just might be a little used to me haggling on each visit. LOL.
Lovely, lovely trinket, I must say.
The necklace triggered the purchase of this certain sexy brown dress. It was too good to pass …
