Love burns brighter than sunshine...









The day was extraordinary. I woke up to a sunny and hot day, which is a rarity back here where rain and wind is plaguing us for the next 6 months. So I decided to dress accordingly and I had quite the sunny disposition… who wouldn’t in this gorgeous dress, right? I got the dress from my friend Lissa ’s brand, Love Vintage, which sells gorgeous vintage and thrifted pieces for quite a bargain! I love their current collection, as modeled by fellow Chictopian, fashion blogger and Glitterati muse, Kookie who rocked the pieces thus making me so tempted to buy… and buy (a lot) I did!







PURPLE REIGN.
My purple purse which matches my shoes perfectly were sponsored by my friend Audrey, who designs and manufactures these and more gorgeous designs. Get your hand on this awesome piece as it is sold under Parisian, in all SM Department Stores. I love how reasonably priced yet handy and fabulous her bags are!

It was definitely love at first wear…I adore the colors and print of the dress since the flowers are big and the purple blue hues are magical together. But what got me really head over heels for this was the sailor style collar and the huge buttons which were just phenomenal especially since nobody really makes details like that anymore. I went for purple and gray accessories to keep the look quite consisted and I resurrected my satin Nine West evening Mary Janes which have magenta and violet combined. I am so glad I didn’t throw these shoes or sell them since I forgot how comfy and useful they actually are! Wore them with socks to cute-ify the otherwise very elegant pair.

To turn a Monday bright and shiny, dress bright and shiny. Cause sometimes all it really takes is the right outfit and the right shoes to rock the day! Haha!

It's a charmed life






Date Night Outfit.

Being that I've been acting like a little kid recently from my movie preferences, I decided to play the part and dress all sweet and kiddie on this day. I missed wearing soft and subtle looks which is why it was a perfect day to do so, considering it was the first time me and my boyfriend ever remembered to celebrate a month-sary after 2 years and 7 months together. We watched a movie and walked around the mall which would've been perfect had it not been for my high heart rate.








I wore a lace vest from Topshop that I got on 70% off over a white uneven hem skirt and tanktop. I can't quite describe the color of the vest since it's kind of like gray, blue and purple mixed together so to solve the problem, I went for gray shoes and socks to be on the safer side. Proceeded along with the pastels with my rosette purse and added a bright contrast with the bow accessory on my hair. I love bows so much! The sweetness they add to any outfit is so hard to resist. Hope it worked!

A moment, a love, a dream aloud, a kiss, a cry, our rights, our wrongs...











I've been going on major dressing up mood wings recently and I can't seem to decide which I love to wear more: top to toe black or brighter then sunshine colors. For this day, however, I guess the colors won and I decided to go for the major fruit punch tones of lemon yellow, raspberry red, strawberry pink and grape purple. It's such a big change for me to wear an all out hued outfit with no basic color of black and white to neutralize the look (well except my gray socks but that doesn't really count, I think)... but I was in such a colorful mode, I just had to show that in my outfit. Anyway, dressing up in all these colors seemed to make me extraordinarily cheerful and hyper today and it seemed that my look had somehow influenced my mood for the day as well. Seriously, not even the rain (which was so strong i caused some major flooding back here) seemed to ruin my parade! And I just need to say this: skittles seemed to be my peg! There's nothing like an all out hued look to wake you up from a dark and twisty fashion coma.




Make life a little bit more interesting and punch it up by wearing eye popping colors and stand out in your own brilliant way...Life's too short to blend in!






I always love dressing girly as ever whenever I go to our store cause it's just so cute, I feel the need to dress accordingly to match the theme- which is girly and GLAM! I chose red accessories- like a polka-dotted tafetta bow hair clip, a red Vernis leather Louis Vuitton Alma purse and these strappy shoes from Michael Antonio from way back- to tie the look together as it was perfect with the red cardigan I got from Mango back when I was in 1st year college in 2004. I felt that I needed another bow somewhere so I used a bow shaped leather cuff which was perfect with the hair bow and the gray toned socks I decided to wear that day.
