Warm Yourself with a Mongolian Jacket

Wouldn’t be interesting to wear something like this one? I don’t know about you but I’ve always been fascinated with fur. It doesn’t have to be real, though (in case you PETA enthusiasts are wondering, heh), what matters is it’s soft and cozy.
Surprisingly, the past few days have been exceptionally cooler […]

I don’t want to get my feet wet!

Plain Leather Boot, Topshop

Plagued with rain. STILL. I had hoped for a glimpse of the sun even just for this weekend. This weekend’s special. I’m in a place I’ve always wanted to go back to.
Trudging in murky water ridden rural streets runs the risk of getting my feet all muddy and icky. I’m […]

Work Wear Monday: Check Bow Back Coat

It’s pouring outside, complete with lightning and thunder. I reckon I won’t be going home anytime soon. Makes me think that no jacket or coat will ever keep me dry with this sort of weather. Esp this Check Bow Back Coat that I saw over at Topshop. Too dressy for […]

Fun Accessories, Rain or Shine!

It’s funny how the days seem to be so fickle. Sunny in the morning then rainy in the afternoon or vice versa. Yes, weeks seem to accommodate cloudy days, light drizzle, scorching hot afternoons, heavy rains, cool evenings. You’ll go mad trying to figure out what to wear.
But perhaps some accessories will brighten you up, […]

I Want A Biker Jacket!

Hold on while I compute a few numbers in my head. Meanwhile, enjoy the photo that triggered the math.

45.00 GBP = 3,735.13 PHP
(So, ok I cheated and used an online converter. Heh)
Yea, the darn Biker Jacket I spotted over at Topshop costs £45.00 and the current exchange rate is Php […]

What is it about Military-inspired Coats that attracts me so?

I really can’t explain it. The shiny buttons down the front, sometimes, double-breasted? Is that it? I just can’t put my finger on it. I remember telling you about the short military coat a few weeks back and the military waist coat, too!
I guess this is a beginning of a want that will never rest […]

Style Inspiration: Ruffles and Frills

Taken a bit by surprise, I’ve encountered Ruffled and/or Frilled necklines on several tops as I surfed earlier. Quite interesting detail, I must say.
I guess this is due to the fact that I had sported an old long-sleeved top last night. It’s very feminine with its tiny flower prints and ruffled cuffs plus a wide […]

One Shoulder Dress by Boutique

One of my frustrations is buying myself something in this colour; this particular shade of blue. Seeing this One Shoulder Dress by Boutique over at Topshop had rekindled this specific want. Sort of.
Though there’s no real need for a dress right now, there’s this growing lust to acquire new […]

Every girl should have at least one of them little black dresses aka LBD in their wardrobes. I’ve only got a couple but I’m looking into acquiring a few more. Wouldn’t hurt, yea?
I love laces and one dress that caught my eye is this Lace Dress from Topshop.

It doesn’t have to be this Oversized Beaded Clutch Bag from Topshop but if I can get my hands on this very beauty then I’m good. I’ll shut up. I’ll be content. I promise!
I know the oversize clutch has been in fashion for quite sometime now but twas only now […]
