change

tried something unusual when i wore this look. what's unusual is my go-to outfit which has to be denim shorts, basic tops and flats, always! with a laid back city like Cebu these kinda outfits are always helpful.

she got game

 stripes tee: thrifted | green leather shorts: WAGW | yellow oxfords: Primadonna | cap: Ralph Lauren

the cap in this outfit is a must as per required by the heat that's killing my vibe. without looking over the top or losing one's personal style this RL cap stashed in my parents' closet is just fitting. the leather shorts is not worn to give anyone confusion. its still very hot here but who says  you can't hoard and wear leather running shorts this summer?

weekend cravings

black cheetah by shaveilachic featuring jeffrey campbell

shopping sounds so good right now. just what i needed. if only i have all the monetary resources to satisfy my weekend cravings. however, polyvore made it a lot easier and better for me. here's what i would dig if i have the money though. and oh, i don't really mind wearing those pair from JC even if it meant everyone staring at me nor the fact that it looks too heavy for me. nah, it won't stop me.

no regrets

 sunnies: F21 | pink crochet top: H&M | watch: Anne Klein | flats: F21

that moment in your life when you knew you have to buy a certain thing and never regret it. that's exactly how i felt regarding this pink crochet top i found while randomly shopping with my friend. aside from the fact that it can actually be worn in two seasons, it was also a really cheap bargain! 

these days i've been wearing tops with huge armholes (to the extent where my sister asked me why i've been showing off my bralettes and bandeaus) which is why this top is really a must-have in my closet. the weather is too unbearable here. wearing pants and leggings here only when necessary.

 white top: thrifted | denim cut-offs: Levi's | rings: F21 | braided headband: DIY | necklace: Just G!

comfort is usually my priority when it comes to dressing up. i believe that a woman looks good in her outfit when she's comfortable on what she's wearing. 

wore a very simple coachella-inspired outfit (i hope its not too late for that) to a movie date with my sister. lately i've been so inclined to wearing huge bags when going out. i carry a lot of stuff with me these days and its important that they all fit in one bag.

my wonderwall

this woman had me when she was very young and i am so amazed of how she stood strong and independent despite getting married and having a child at a very young age. she taught me everything i needed to know. she's a really tough woman. she has put up a lot with me which i am very thankful. i am who i am now because of her. she's inspired me to be better even do the things her way. i may sometimes doubt what she says but at the end of the day, mothers always know what 's best for her children, proven and tested a million times. you've said a lot of empty threats at me when you disapprove of what i do and that's because you love me. she's my best critic. my confidante. my bestfriend (or frie-n-emy). my wonderwall. MY MOTHER. i love you beyond words and more than you can imagine. i may disagree with you most of the time but know always that you are understood and i take your words by heart. mom, you may not be reading this now but i'm gonna make you proud and i'll try to give back all the love you've shown me.

they hunt clothes

oh please it aint legit. not modelling of some sort. there was nobody to fill in the shoes of a "model" that day and the place was amazing for a shoot so i just have to do it. all items worn in this very quick shoot are from the clothes hunter and  now while you're at it try to visit them then let me know what you think about their style! :)
