For my 100th post, how about a tribute to my forever style icon Olivia Palermo? Of course hundred is just used figuratively since it’s impossible to recreate all her high-end pieces. But come to think of it, out of her endlessly-blogged-about looks, there are still styles that are recreate-able and it makes you think that…
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?
GALA NIGHT
Two nights ago, I and my friend Karen went to
Solaire Theatre to catch the West End production of Mamma Mia
OPERA AND VERSAILLES
Ask me to name the most beautiful building I’ve been to in Paris
and without a doubt for me it’s the Palais Garnier or simply known as the Opera.
BACK IN PARIS
Paris is always a good idea.
ROMANTIC RHINE
One of my favourite #CakesinEurope experience
PRE-TRAVEL ANXIETY
I can still remember the first time I felt this. January 2016,
the company booked an early morning Malaysian Airlines flight...
BRUSSELS: TO DIY OR NOT
Whenever I imagine that I may have landed in Warsaw instead of Prague from Vienna
(if not for a group of Filipinos I talked to in the train who told me we’re supposed to transfer ...
Don’t Go Chasing Waterfalls
Did you know that there’s more to La Union than just the swell for surfing? There’s this hidden gem in San Gabriel called Tangadan falls that’s worth visiting if you’re a nature-lover. Not only does it satisfy the inner nemophilist in you, the place also brings out the daredevil in you with cliff-jumping opportunities. Check…
The Neck Scarf
While keeping up with trends is important, one should decide carefully as to which ones are worth splurging or saving. Just because something is trendy, doesn’t mean it’s worth a chunk of your shopping budget right? But what if this is a street style trend that actually costs below $10? It’s a no-brainer; I’m jumping…
Something About Gray
“You’re trying to tell the world that you take yourself too seriously to care about what you put on your back [yet] that blue represents millions of dollars and countless jobs and it’s sort of comical how you think that you’ve made a choice that exempts you from the fashion industry when, in fact, you’re…
Scuba Skirt
Scuba meets office? Yes, you can. This tech fabric for the surf/scuba crowd has leapt from the water and and is making its way into the fashion world. I’m talking about scuba fabric or neoprene to be more accurate. It is a family of synthetic rubber that is durable, flexible, insulative, wrinkle,water and UV resistant…
Boot Up!
With a change of season comes not only an additional pile of clothing for warmth but also an update of your shoe game! That’s right, ladies! Boot up! Haha! Harper’s Bazaar has spoken – these are the five boots every woman should own. Check out how I style ‘em up in the past. 😉 1. …
#NoBraDays
October is breast cancer awareness month. You may have noticed hashtags like #FreeTheNipple and #NoBraDay in your social networking accounts. As I have mentioned in my post here, this is just like an ordinary day for me. But girls do know how confining cup cages can be and there’s nothing more liberating than removing them brassieres at…
Crop Top Layering
Early this year, we talked about resolutions whereupon I, a not so style expert (lol!), recommended exploring on a new color to try for this year. In that post, I featured this yellow sheath dress and now that we’re on to the last quarter of the year, I just wanted to revisit that dress. If…
All Black 101
“Women think of all colors except the absence of color. I have said that black has it all. … [Its] beauty is absolute. It is the perfect harmony.” – Coco Chanel By now, the month long show of S/S 2016 catwalk season have ended with the last leg held in Paris last week. Needless to…
The Black Skinny Trousers
It was heartbreaking. We’ve made so many good styling history together. A week after my US-Canada trip, I found out that my perfect pair of trousers disappeared. And the worst part is, I don’t really have a clue where I left it as the transpacific flight back home was all pretty much a blur to…
