The Perfect White Tee

"I've always thought of the T-shirt as the alpha and omega of the fashion alphabet."

-Giorgio Armani

Didn't he say it best? From one closet essential to the next... (this is becoming a trend already) but here is yet another post on one of my closet staples which is the plain white t-shirt. It is just absolutely a MUST! I can go on and on and on to tell you ways to wear it and I probably won't run out of styling tips because it is THAT essential. No matter what, every girl has got to have the perfect white tee and it is here to stay. The search for it isn't as easy though since it has to fit you perfectly. Thankfully, I was able to discover a brand that provides exactly that- called Sexy White Shirt and everything about it is just amazing: the fit, the sizing, the quality of the fabric... you've got to trust me on this... I am obsessed with it so much that I even styled it in such a way that I made it appropriate for the office. Yes, for those of you who don't know, I now go to the office and work as the Executive Director in one of my dad's companies. No, it is not an "ad hoc" job where it is simply a title I was given since I'm his daughter... the thing about my dad is he expects much so I actually have to work hard for the company and go to the office and attend to important matters. 

I'm like a ringleader (I call the shots)

There's only two types of people in the world: the ones who entertain and the ones who observed.. Well I'm a put on a show kind of girl.

Wore a ringleader inspired outfit which was fitting as we were watching Cirque Du Soleil. I don't know what it is about me but I love dressing for the occasion... it's interesting to play a part sometimes and while this was more "call to arms" than circus, I guess you get the vibe given my coat had a tail. Since it was rainy and we were experiencing typhoon weather back here, I decided it was high time I whip out my thigh high boots and take 'em out for a spin around town. It was a smart choice especially since it covered my legs against the elements esp. the cold since I get really really cold easily. Wore my all purpose Nightingale purse with the look which fit my entire life inside and of course added some bling rings including a cute gold elephant ring which added to the circus theme. (I watched Like Water for Elephants while preparing so I get into the whole circus mood!!!)

Cirque Du Soleil was awesome. Check out some photos I had to sneak taking with my Iphone!!! The set, the VIP Lounge (Tapis Rouge which means Red Carpet, literally) and the atmosphere was inspiring and it added to the vibe! I loved it!
(We were front row and I love the whole harlequin/ pageant of the macabre feel of that night!)

"She dreams a champagne dream
Strawberry surprise, pink linen and white paper
Lavender and cream
Fields of butterflies, reality escapes her"

I wore this to a much needed tame Saturday night out which consisted of din-din and a movie, which was quite refreshing, considering I've been going out a lot the past week. I have to say, I am not one to party and go out on weekends--- since I am a weekday warrior (I prefer going out on weekdays cause I love the control the knowledge you have work the next day gives and also because I try to avoid the bridge and tunnel overcrowding in bars/clubs on weekends... I guess it comes with age...?) My Fridays and Saturdays are reserved purely for hibernation and for relaxation, and I guess catching the screening of The Adjustment Bureau was a great way to unwind. I had a very stressful week (with an extra serving of losing my voice and two scraped knees on the side) which continued until that Saturday afternoon since we had to shoot for our new collection. I wore a very military outfit earlier during the day for the shoot (see last post) and I decided to just go with that vibe for night time with a leather jacket, studs, fringe and a whole lot of black.

I can be tamed after all.
