Style Inspiration: Floral and Denim

Image: mango.com
This is one look I really want to try out: Floral and Denim. Love it. I actually have been looking for that floral granny-esque dress — I spotted one over at Topshop but twas 5K Php expensive so blech — but I haven’t been fortunate enough to find one. And I did tell you […]

The NAVY-Black Style Guide

They’re saying that NAVY is making a comeback. They say that it’s the new black. Now, all I can think about is the 90s fashion era when Navy used to be a popular colour alright. Talk about de ja vu. Heh. Question is, are we ready to tackle this trend?
Net-a-porter.com offers a few ideas […]

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. […]

Sleeveless Frill Blouse

There are days when you still want to dress up a bit, yeah? I’m talking about summer outfits. There are occasions when you simply won’t be satisfied with casual looks even when it’s very comfortable. You want a bit of the polished look. Something not too dressy and formal. Something that’s still fun to wear […]

The Bow Fashion

There’s something about this style that I like. It seems so conservative and old fashioned but it’s so stylish, too. It reminds me of the time when the Victorian blouses were popular — I know some still do — only this time the blouse is more on the preppy side and very versatile looking.

Keep An Eye Out: Tie Front Blouses

Goodness. I don’t really like how they called it. Gah.
Had this image saved in my laptop for quite a while now, got this in my inbox a few months back. Mango Newsletter. Love the look of the tie front blouse. I wouldn’t mind owning one.

T2B Spotting | Blouses & Chocolate

Where? Gloria Jean’s @ Makati City, Philippines
What? Short sleeve Buttoned Blouse in Chocolate
Christine, one of the organisers of the recently concluded Beauty & Minerals Day, looked adorable in the chocolate blouse. To clarify, it’s not edible, okay? It’s the best term I can describe the hue of the top.
She wore it with a pair of […]

Two Days Worth of Shopping

Oh, yes, my dear fashionistas. This particular fashionista did shop for two consecutive days and can you guess what I brought home? :mrgreen: Lots of bags filled with fashion goodies! From lingerie to shoes, from tops to bottoms! Hehehe.
I’m still a little giddy about my guilt-free shopping stint a few days ago. I can’t believe […]
