Two nights ago, I and my friend Karen went to Solaire Theatre to catch the West End production of Mamma Mia. No, I did not wear this dramatic LBD to the said event but what with the recent charity gala held by a media conglomerate, I thought there’s no better time to post this look…

On Looking Polished in Your 30s
It’s the last day of my birth month! So in line with getting a year older (and wiser I hope), I thought I’d share here my list of basics on looking polished for a 30-something corporate slave. Each one to his own but I think that with aging comes the responsibility of dressing up accordingly. …
Safari Chic
I couldn’t be more excited that animal prints are back this F/W season – leopard especially. I’m not that fond about zebra/ snake prints though admittedly I used to hoard these prints too before (Hello, cow print!). But absolutely nothing compared to my leopard obsession before. Think: eye mask, umbrella, stockings in leopard print. There…
Post Labor Day Whites
Did you know that in the US, there was this once a fashion commandment to not wear white after Labour Day (September 1)? Yep. And like a throwback hashtag, this sartorial decree comes up during this season to remind us of (1) the snobbery of the American millionaires in the early 1900s who wanted to…
Vision in White
Lately, I find myself pinning bridal dresses. It’s not because my wedding is soon to come (puhr-lease?!?! *snorts*) but I blame it on the various topics about it in some online magazines that I am currently subscribed to (imagine about 10 different styles of wedding dress per post, ugh!) I think there’s nothing so unusual…
#TrioThursday: Rainy Day Looks
If you remember, about two weeks ago, Henry ( a tropical depression) entered the country that resulted to early dismissals and suspensions even of work for some days. Since for both times the announcements were made when I was in the workplace already, my greatest benefit was that I got to workout more in the…
Kermit Green
Remember when Pantone announced ultra violet as colour of the year? Well half the year has gone by but did you notice any prominence of that colour in clothing or other industries? It doesn’t look like it for me. Whereas yellow, the one I predicted to be bigger this year, is still continuing to make…
Mermaid Maxi
Okay, so I just read an article about this thing about wearing a”second look” for bridesmaids in the bridal party. The rationale behind is that if the bride can do it, why can’t the bridesmaids? Right? It makes sense because, bridesmaids need to be comfortable during the party too, yes? Haha. But today I’m going…
Miss Polka Dots
Midyear. Can you believe we’re past the first half of 2018 already? Now before I get you into a pensive mood, let’s talk about happy things that this season brings. Like, midyear sales!!! 🛍😅 Because seriously, there’s nothing quite like seeing that jumpsuit that you’ve been obsessively monitoring in your wishlist (for heaven knows how long)…
Mutual
First of all, congratulations are in order. To the newly-engaged, Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin! Cheers! I must say this whole affair just gave me a reference for something that is utterly familiar. And that is what I would call, “I’ve-just-been-Shawn-Mendes’d” thingy. I don’t have all the details but this is what I’ve gathered from…
