Mister Hipster

One of my favorite photo shoots so far! I’m just speechless! like, look at the photos. It’s nothing but damn amazing shots! I just love how my outfit perfectly complements the shoot location. Kudos to Kevin Mueco! You should definitely hire him! Check out his portfolio: @kmdmuecophotography.

Basic Black

This must be one of my favorite piece in my wardrobe right now. I haven’t tried wearing a romper with this length before. It’s a knee-level cut at the bottom and it’s not skin-fitted. Another thing I love about this piece is that it’s an off-shoulder with a cute ruffle detail which makes it more feminine. And lastly, its color. Black

makes me look slimmer and classy! Don’t you agree? Plus, this romper was nice enough to take me from day to night to a shoot, to an event and family dinner, so I didn’t have to bother bringing an extra piece or two to layer with! Perfection!

Lace It Up

Hey guys! I’m back with a new outfit post! 🙂

I’d like to experiment when it comes to dressing up. I like to mix and match and try different styles from edgy, to boho, to boyish and girly. And this is one of those days when I feel like extra girly. This wrap dress from @bonneetbelle is a perfect piece that will make you stand-out! I wore a ribbed top under it for a preppy touch. I chose a lace up sandals with the same color with the top. For a more sophisticated and classy look, I added a black floppy hat. I’m so obsessed with hats/caps right now so expect a lot of it on my future OOTDs!

Here are some of the photos from this shoot:

To All Those Who Feel Like Giving Up

I see you. I know you’re very exhausted because of all the happenings in your life right now. I can see the tiredness in your face. I know that behind those wonderful smile is worry and distress. I know you’re doing your best. I know you’re giving it your all. I know you’re trying to live up to the expectations of the people around you. But, it’s okay to pause for a while. It’s okay to rest. It’s okay to not be strong all the time. It’s okay to ask for help and guidance. If ever you feel like giving up,

remember who you do it for and remember those who believe in you. All those days, months, years of struggling will pay off. All good things come to those who are patient and work hard.

Sometimes where you feel like giving up, you need to work 10x harder. Please know that God has a plan for you and these rough times will only make you stronger.

To those who feel like giving up, DON’T. Stop, relax, pray, cry or SCREAM! Eat ice cream & everything inside your fridge. Sleep, but NEVER QUIT!

CORPORATE

The Letran Pscyhology Society (LPS) conducted a seminar-workshop entitled neoPsyche 3: Let’s Get the Job Done! – Millenials at Work. The speakers discussed about improving communication skills, work ethics, personality and attitude development. Basically, they gave advises and talked about the things we needed to keep in mind when we will be setting out into the work jungle.

LPS required the attendees to wear a smart casual/business attire. I have a limited number of formal and business clothes in my closet and I don’t want to buy new one because bankrupt. So the only option I had was to.. raid my mom’s closet! HAHA. I found a classy animal print button down and a mustard shoulder bag. The top is sheer so I have to wear an inner tube and it’s so comfy as well! This is how I’m gonna be dressing up when I enter the corporate world. No boss or company dress code should ever stop you from finding ways to make your business attire interesting. #fashown!

Instead of the usual pencil skirt or slacks, I wore a cullottes to add a little bit of youthfulness to a matured look.

White x Denim

I can’t believe it’s already Saturday. It feels like this week went by in just a day! It must be because I’ve been so busy with school, I didn’t even notice how time flew by. I actually still have a lot to do so forgive me if I have to make this post short and sweet.

Pastel Vestis;

Don’t things just sound better in Latin? Couldn’t think of what to name my post so I decided to translate pastel outfit in different languages and Latin obviously won this one. Haha!

Anyway, about my look..

Black, White and Nude

There are times wherein I feel like dressing up a girly look. Especially when there’s an event or party, I grab the opportunity to pull out my dresses or skirts. Usually, you can see me wearing pants or shorts but not skirts, it’s not my thing. Haha.

Keepin’ It Comfy

This is my last look for the school year 2015-2016, and it’s made of comfy separates in muted colors. Just the right way to cap off my ‘hell month’ effortlessly.

After weeks of reviewing, studying and doing research papers, I needed a look that I could just throw on and forget about.

Since I didn’t know how long the class cards distribution would take, I opted to dress comfortably and something easy to move around in. Plus, gray and white look so good together, don’t you think? It’s one of my favorite color combinations!

What do you think about this look?

Basics + Floral

Dressing for comfort! I wore this out to a picnic date with my boyfriend (see previous post here). The weather in Manila has been quite confusing to me. It was so nice and sunny out but there was this amazing breeze that came along with it. Perfect.
