I took a room, an empty space for the summer

A plum-and-gold-and-brown top, Apple & Eve. Jeans, unbranded, Circle C. Brown shoes, Otto.

I was also wearing a wooden bracelet, a brown and black beaded necklace. And I brought a purple and wood bag.

This outfit is similar to the one from when I first posted about this blouse, but, this time, instead of the silver shoes and accessories, I had brown and wood ones on. Which would’ve been perfect with my background, if only you can see them. Haha!

About the photo
Taken at UP College of Human Kinetics. Propped my camera on a tree trunk. I LOVE the dried leaves contrasting with the green leaves on the trees. Yey summer!

Oh villians fear himTetsuwan Atom (Astro Boy) t-shirt from that ukay beside Lolo Oboy’s, P280. Tank top from Baguio ukay, P30. Unbranded jeans from Circle C, P250. Necklace from Punya, P80. Watch from Tomato. Chucks.

And here it is. My Astro Boy shirt with the collar area chopped off to transform it from a little boy’s shirt to a Flashdance-y shirt. Yey!

The print says, “Atom is a super hero”. And then there’s that awesome holographic design.

As I was getting dressed, I tried to convince myself that the weather was nice, and it wasn’t scorching hot… seeing as I was to wear two layers of clothing when most girls are wearing thin sleeveless shirts the past few days. Either I really did convince myself properly, or the weather really was nice. Or maybe this whole combo isn’t hot at all. Oh, man, I wish it was that last one so I can wear this again soon!

So. My first t-shirt cutting project. Success? Yes? No?

waiting for my rocket to come

waiting for my rocket to come

Blue shirt, Teens Extreme, Circle C. Jeans, HerBench. Clogs, InStyle, Circle C.  Denim bag, Heartstrings. Watch, Tomato. Headband from my mom’s dresser.

So in an attempt to reuse my old clothes, I pulled out my straight jeans from the late 90s. Yes. The 90s. I take care of my clothes, thank you very much.

I read somewhere recently that boyfriend jeans are so last year, but pardon me who isn’t following the cutting edge of fashion trends. I only heard the term recently, and I’ve never tried wearing them. So here I am, trying it on for size.

For those who, like me, aren’t very familiar with the trend: wearing boyfriend jeans is wearing oversized or straight denim jeans that look like they’re your boyfriend’s. Boyfriend jeans are supposed to be worn with very girly stuff (like tight-fitting tops, boots or strappy sandals), and the ankles are recommended to be shown as more proof of girliness.

I’m not sure if I pulled it off. I think I need to wear a different pair of shoes. Or maybe I need more accessories? Or an even girlier top? I’m not entirely proud of this outfit, but I don’t think I looked completely horrid. Hm. Must improve this look.

Because, because, because, because

Because, because, because, because

So I bought a new pair of Chucks.
Because I love Chucks.
And because I’ve never had red shoes.
And because I was going to the Red Shoes premier.

Time to see this pair: a split-second.
Time to try it on: 2 minutes.
Time to decide if I should get it: a split second.

This has got to be one of my fastest purchases. Haha!

Pixelated, I know. Boo, low lighting. Boooooo! But then again, the low light made the red stand out more. Sorta.

wait till I come back to your side

wait till I come back to your sideDinosaur Shirt from Robinson’s Galleria Department Store. Unbranded jeans from Circle C. Chucks. 10-year-old Uruk-hai bag from Daki.

This is how I dressed during college. Except for the skinnies. I always wore flares then. Oh, and I wore running shoes instead of Chucks then. And— Wait. So this isn’t how I dressed in college. Huh. LOL.

But aaaaaaaaanyway. When I was preparing to go watch the From Paris with Love premier, one of my roommates said that I looked like a college student. Har~

About the photo
Hehe. The advantages of staying in the mall until closing time include finding awesome places to shoot. Like this one. Yey for this flatish escalator/conveyer-belt-looking thingy!

So I realize that you can’t really see the details of what I’m wearing here. But I loooooove how the shot turned out! You can click on the photo to see the larger version on Flickr. Thanks for helping me, Jori!

Say the word I’m thinking of

Say the word I'm thinking of

Have you heard the word is love
- “The Word”, The Beatles. From the Revolver album, 1965.

Tank top and jersey combo from Circle C, P300. Jag jeans. Chucks. Dog tag from the Febfair in LB manymany years ago. Watch from Tomato.

I’ve been wanting to do this look for a long, long, long time, but I couldn’t find a shirt like that that looked good on me. And I didn’t have a tank top. Until now. And, even better, I got them both as a combo. Wheeee!

Darn. Now I want to cut the neckline of some of my not-used-anymore shirts. Haha!

About the photo
I love shooting in UP Film Center at noon. The harsh lighting does wonders in this setting, for some reason. Must be the orange brick?

I mistook you for a stranger, my lady in a golden outfit

I mistook you for a stranger, my lady in a golden outfit

A plum-and-gold-and-brown top, Apple & Eve. Blue jeans, Jag. A black knit bag. A white gold necklace. Silver earrings. Silver shoes, Manel’s.

I wonder how many followers of the fashion rules are cringing right now. LOL.

On my way out to Tin’s debut in Esplanade. I was not about to get a cab wearing my formal dress. At 3 PM. No way. If it was already in the night, it would’ve be easier: I probably would have just thrown on a coat and I was fine. But no. It was 3 PM. So, no. I packed my dress into my mom’s bag before leaving. Haha!

I just wanna stop and thank You

I just wanna stop and thank You

Red smock blouse, Shaw Blvd. MRT Station, P150. Darn. I have to ask the lady there what the name of her store is. There are a lot of clothing stalls in the Shaw Station, but the one I usually go to is at the EDSA Central End, Southbound side.

Valentine’s Day. We were to wear red and/or white, but I chose to wear red for fun. Also wore dark jeans from Circle C—I didn’t realize they were dark green until I saw this photo—and a brown bracelet. And brown leather shoes from Otto.

Title from “How Sweet It Is to be Loved by You”, Marvin Gaye. Because we sang it.

whenever there’s fun there’s always Coca-Cola

Saturday, February 6th, 2010 | accessories, apparel, jeans, necklaces, t-shirts | 2 Comments

whenever there's fun there's always Coca-ColaCoca-Cola tee, Circle C, P100. Jag jeans. Gold heart necklace, Guadalupe bangketa, P50.

Okay, so I’m sort of refraining from drinking Coke as if it was water since I’m hyperacidic and I’ve got a heart thingy and all that, BUT I STILL LOVE COKE.

And even if I do completely stop drinking Coke, there’s nothing wrong with having it on my shirt, yes? ;p

Heee~ These shirts are making me look slimmer than I actually am.

About the photo
My pose kinda made my jeans ride lower than they should lol. Good thing my shirt’s long.

And because I’m feeling nostalgic:
