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. […]

I Want a Corset

Image: topshop.com
I do. I can’t really explain it. I’ve always wanted to own AND wear one (of course!). This Roses Taffeta Corset I saw over at Topshop renewed my wanting. I’ve been considering older designs, also in Topshop, before but never gotten around to settling on one. Perhaps I really ought to condition myself and […]

T2B Shopping: Kris Lace Top by Irene’s Closet

This is the Kris Lace Top I bought together with the Emily Ruf Dress from Irene’s Closet. A real change from most of my recent purchases, I think. I’m feeling a little more bolder in terms of experimenting with different garments lately. I’ve been yearning for individuality and personality in the clothes I’ve been buying. […]

T2B Shopping: Ribbed Scoop Neck Tank, Topshop

Before I left for the Vietnam and Cambodia trip, I did a bit of shopping over at Topshop over at Bonifacio High Street. I figured it wouldn’t hurt to check out basic items I can add on to the stuff I’m going to pack. I made sure that I can still wear these items afterwards, […]

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.
I told […]

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.
Just thought, I’d let you guys know. Meanwhile, I’m keeping […]

T2B Shopping: Taking a Sexy Back

Dragonfly Cowl Back T-Shirt, Topshop
I’ve been racking my brain for something to wear for a clubbing night on Wednesday (tomorrow night). Steve Aoki will be at Embassy and I’m not missing it this time. I was actually planning to simply scan my wardrobe and put together an outfit but nothing seems to satisfy me. A […]
