Sasha Hearts

.. the L & L Beige Lightweight Stretchable Cotton Quarter Sleeve Top (boy, that was surely a mouthful) that Angie Hearts.
The idea of wearing something like this has always been a wish. I just find myself too thin sometimes (I look ghastly whenever I wear something loose, you see) and not to mention that […]

Star Embroidered Dress, Matthew Williamson

This Star Embroidered Dress by Matthew Williamson that I found over at net-a-porter.com is the love. Though I do find the stars a bit tacky, with it being colourful and stuff, I still find it gorgeous. The initial impression is glamourous. I esp love the kimono-style or the angelwing-slash-butterfly sleeves. It’ll look great with both […]

Hit the High Seas with Nautical Stripes

One of the trend forecasts for this Summer is the nautical inspired looks. What better way to get the look but to wear some nautical stripes, yea? I’ve noticed that this look is quite popular during this particular season. Perhaps it’s due to the fact that most of the summer activities will include the water. […]

Rainy Days can be Colourful

While the West enjoy the sunny days of Summer, here in Manila, it’s a different story. Yes, we still suffer from the usual heat and humidity of this beautiful tropical country littered with dusty suburbans and concrete jungles of the business district but starting now (er, actually started a few weeks ago) and for a […]

Love this Outfit

I’ve always loved this sort of look.
What’s great about this outfit is that you only need a different pair of shoes or add accessories or layers and the look can turn from dressy to casual (or vice versa).
ASOS PETITE Roll Hem Stripe Slouch Trousers on sale for £18.00 over at ASOS.
Yes, ASOS is currently […]

Fringe Tiered Tunic

With all this talk on trends (hint: here, here, here and here), I can’t help but be reminded of that style inspiration I came across a while back. It’s seen as part of the current trend, slowly getting traction — granted that fashionistas don’t get thoroughly distracted by newer or overly hyped trends — […]

More BOW Talks

Yes. I’m back talking about bows. As I previously mentioned, I’m here to show you where I first noticed this trend. Various fashion designers have taken upon themselves to incorporate an ever feminine accent — BOW. There’s something about it that brings back memories of when you were a little girl. Innocence and youth. However, […]

Another White Idea

Image: topshop.com
Isn’t it purdy?! Me like-y.
Even when June should be a rainy month, we’re still experiencing bouts of heat waves that I’m wishing I could work while I’m in the pool. Is there a waterproof laptop out there? Hehe.
I digress.
This Broderie Sundress in oh-so-glorious white that I saw over at Topshop is utterly […]

White Summer

Image: mango.com
Yes. The word’s out. White is the must-have colour for Summer. I found this adorable white dress over at Mango a few weeks ago. It’s perfect worn alone, layered or even as a coverup. Had it not been for the Philippine Fashion Week coverage, I would’ve told you guys about it sooner. It’s not […]

What To Wear: Sex & the City Movie Premiere

I’d wear something as fun as this one. I’d like to celebrate the Carrie Bradshaw style and everything that made Sex and the City a fashion and style haven.
Of course, that is if I’d ever get the chance to walk the red carpet of a premiere where what you wear matters. Otherwise, it’s quite silly […]
