Waking up on a monotonous Friday turned me into a lazy daisy dresser. I nonchalantly grabbed the first top and bottom that I laid my eyes on from my closet. In truth, I was giddy that they went well together. Stripes and florals, who would’ve thought?

What I wore: Striped crop top and Floral skirt with brown waist belt [Bangkok], Gold butterfly wire art ring [Greenhills], Peach flower ring [City Complex Bkk], White sunglasses [Vietnam], Branches and butterflies necklace and Peach satchel [Platinum Fashion Mall Bkk], Light pink heart heels [Chatuchak Weekend Market Bkk]

As I chanced upon this simple sweater in my closet, I assumed it as an agreeable canvas to incorporate with my neon pieces that have been waiting to be worn forever. Monochromatic fabrics are easy peasy to be mixed and matched with vivid colored accessories. This is what I wore to a Wednesday out with my best friends. ;)

What I wore: White graphic printed sweater [Thrifted], White braided belt [YRYS], Neon green dog tags [Mong Kok Night Market HK], Neon pink OMG necklace [Freestyle Necklaces], Heart crystal ring [Platinum Fashion Mall Bkk], Neon pink stone ring [Gift], Multicolored diamond ring [Chatuchak Weekend Market Bkk], Neon pink quilted bag [Hong Kong], Lace booties with bows [Ichigo Shoes at The Ramp]

I have always been enamored by the dripping Chanel design. I perceive it as the decorous dose of elegant meets eclectic, something that can be attributed to my own personal style. In this ensemble, I breathed into bohemian chic by donning faddish feathered pieces plus a flowy maxi skirt in a bold brilliance of blue. ;)

P.S. I totes regret not purchasing the dripping Chanel necklace I caught sight of during my trip to Japan. Does anyone know if it’s available anywhere in Manila? :)

What I wore: Dripping Chanel graphic printed cropped top [Bangkok], Royal blue maxi skirt [Local department store], Peacock necklace [Random], Rebel connector ring [Chatuchak Weekend Market Bkk], Gold ring, Gold stud bangles, Drop feather earrings and Brown studded crisscross heels [City Complex Bkk], Peacock bangle [Platinum Fashion Mall Bkk], Vintage Chanel chain bag [Milan Station Hong Kong]

Multiply is known to be the number one place in the web to go online shopping. They continue to give us only the best with the revelry of their brand new shopping platform, the Marketplace. Multiply Philippines kicked off a privy party last October 18th. It was a sensational soiree with the chic combination of fun and fashion. ;)

Merci beaucoup to Paulo of Multiply Philippines for having me in this enjoyable event. <3

Superb satchels from The School of Satchel.

Stunning shoesies from Asian Vogue, Chick Flick and Five by Five.

Tempting appetizers from Bizu.

Host Bianca Valerio’s heel-less shoes are to die for!

Blissful that I bumped into my beautiful blogger friends; Kaye, Vern, Angel and Ava! :)

Over and above, I met my gorgeous Tumblr girls; Sue, Hash and Nikki! :)

Additional fan girl photos with the captivating Camille and Laureen. <3

Thank you for being my date, bb! I love you. :)

Beauteous beings clad in smart casual attires, dainty dresses, preppy leg wear and different colored satchels dominated White Space’s catwalk last October 18th during the momentous Multiply Shopping Party. I could not help but be smitten with the candy colored satchels specially and I am planning to purchase one soon. Thanks to Multiply’s brand new shopping platform, online shopping just got a lot more convenient! ;)

I mixed the femininity of floral prints with the edginess of gold studs for a movie night out at Rockwell with my siblings. Apple green and tangerine hued accessories infused just the right amount of popping razzle dazzle to the whole ensemble. <3 

What I wore: Royal blue floral dress and Black studded belt [Bangkok], Peace and love key connector ring [Temple Street Night Market Hong Kong], Keep Calm and Carry On ring [Platinum Fashion Mall Bkk], Tangerine feather earrings [Random], Studded gladiator heels and Studded bag [Hong Kong]

I had the bliss to make the scene as the celebrated brand, Jimmy Choo, launched its first ever fragrance last October 11th. As I have envisaged, Jimmy Choo’s foremost fragrance is contrived with strong passion and elegance, purely exhibiting an alluring lass who is fearless to steal the spotlight and who is most likely to lay down a lucid whiff of her essence in any time and any place. ;)

Merci beaucoup to Marla of Prestige Brands Philippines for having me in this exquisite event. <3

The engagingly eccentric Tessa Prieto-Valdes served as the afternoon’s host.

This foxy pair of Jimmy Choos was raffled off amidst the program. 

It was good to see Ava again and it was a pleasure to meet new friends as always! A shout out to Angel, Paul, Melai and Bestie. <3

What I wore: Baby pink lace dress and White blazer [Bangkok], White stone ring [Chatuchak Weekend Market Bkk], Gold ballerina dress ring [Bought online], Mirrors and pearls connector ring and Butterfly, ribbon and flowers necklace [City Complex Bkk], Pearl earrings [Sister’s closet], White chain bag with gold studs and Nude t-strap platform heels [Platinum Fashion Mall Bkk]

Here is an easy-going ensemble perfect for a lighthearted Sunday afternoon lounging by the pool. Salmon is such a comely color, plus the scallop structures on my top were too pretty to pass up. Capping off my laid-back look are my favorite sweetheart sunglasses! ;)

What I wore: Salmon scallop puff sleeved top, Gray high waist cargo pants and Peach rose ring [Bangkok], Gold ribbon ring, Gold skull ring and Gold deer connector ring [Chatuchak Weekend Market Bkk], Blue heart shaped sunglasses [Bought online], Nude cage heels [Local department store], Louis Vuitton Neverfull [Louis Vuitton]

Stumbling upon this Burberry polo as I was browsing through random racks in a thrift shop, I fell in love at first sight. Regardless of it being a tad bit pricey, I didn’t want to let it go. I initially reckoned on wearing it alone as a dress and cinching it with a belt but I figured it was sorta revealing for school. Thus, I decided to don it with the basics; a shirt and denim shorts. Orange accents equipped the whole ensemble and I took my cushy wedges out for a spin. ;)

What I wore: Fifi Lapin graphic printed shirt, Denim shorts and Orange H belt [Bangkok], Burberry button down shirt [Thrifted], Vampire fangs connector ring [Random], Gold magician hat and Gold tiger head ring [Chatuchak Weekend Market Bkk], Gray chain bag with padlock detail and Black and gray wedges with zipper details [Hong Kong]

As last Saturday night rolled in, it was the perfect point to raise the roof and revel with my three amigas; Absolut, Jose Cuervo and Therese. “Ziz! Distillery g?” read my best friend’s text message and ten minutes later, I perceived myself all primped to paint the town red. I bow down to my younger sister’s speedy and stunning make up moxie! Look-see her beautiful blog here. ;)

What I wore: White sheer shirt and Leopard bandage skirt [Bangkok], Gold chandelier earrings, Stacked stud bangles and Gold pumps [City Complex Bkk], Alexander McQueen inspired Knuckle Duster clutch [Japan]

I am veritably vivacious about the Color Blocking Trend. As the mischievous mademoiselle that I am, phosphorescently playful pigments run the show inside my closet and creating cheerful color palettes spontaneously sends me good vibes. Topping off my threads in this look, I established to excessorize with coordinately colorful accessories. ;)

What I wore: Gray tank dress used as a top [Hong Kong], Yellow bandage skirt [Sunkissed Couture], Pink blazer [Thrifted], Peace bracelet [Anagon], Yellow Ice watch and Hot pink pumps [Borrowed from my sisters], Beaded Barbie bracelets [Toys R Us Malaysia], Pink rubber bracelet [Rubi Singapore], Parrot connector ring [Bought online], Hot pink stone ring and Black round sunglasses [Random], Gray Louis Vuitton handbag [Mom’s hand me down]

I dislike how my college compels an authoritative dress code policy. Now and again, I stress more on what to wear rather than on academic work. Nevertheless, rules are rules and it is a necessity to abide by them. Last Friday, I chanced upon this dainty dress in my closet. Becoming conscious of how short it looked on me, I decided to pair it with pants and voila! A conservative school ensemble. ;)

By nighttime, I eliminated my blue jeans and donned the dress for a dinner out at Blue Wave. Perfect day to night outfit, isn’t it?

What I wore: Pastel floral printed dress [Hong Kong], Denim high waisted pants with bow detail and Off white messenger bag [Bangkok], Cream blazer [Thrifted], Ice cream statement necklace [Accessorize], Pearls flower ring with rhinestones [Forever 21 Singapore], Love connector ring and Owl ring with pink rhinestones [Bought online], Michael Kors Rose Gold watch [Gift], Vintage Rayban sunglasses [Japan], Peach satin platform heels [Japan]

Denim shorts are quintessential in every girl’s closet, remarkably with Manila’s oven like weather. If you want to stand out in a sea of austere blue jeans, a stylish psyche has concocted an equally stylish solution. Say hello to Emblazon, the brainchild of alluring Andrea Arenas. With a dose of deviation on top of her flair of hand painting, she flinged Anchors Away, her numero uno nautical-inspired collection. Merci beaucoup for the pretty presents, couzin! It sure is lovely to be Emblazoned. ;)

What I wore: White graphic printed sheer shirt [Hype Bkk], Black blazer with studded details [Singapore], Anchors Away denim shorts and Navy blue bow band [Emblazon], Royal blue beaded bangle [Local department store], Red leather cuff with gold studs and Aldo stacked bangles [Gift], Rhinestone studded panda ring [Bangkok], Royal blue stud ring and Black round sunglasses [Random], Black peep toe bow heels [Forever 21 Singapore], Classic Prada handbag [Mom’s hand me down]

After merrymaking all night and merely getting sufficient shuteye, the snooze button wasn’t an option for my 8 o’clock am alarm last September 24th. Despite feeling and looking like a zombie, I was all vitalized to doll myself up and head to the Fashion 4.0 shoot. It was distinctly delightful to meet such beautiful people who were very easy to get along with. :)

Sam and Sarah, the dashing double behind 11th of October.

Renzo rocking his kicks and innovative Yuki, who has her own accessory line!

Dainty darlings Ria and Cher, exuding of effeminate pieces.

Sexy girl with the sexy hair, Patricia!
