Christmas in Fukuoka
I’m back! Spending the holidays in Japan was a blast. Such a magical place with a much-enviable visual culture, as always! Easily my most favorite place in the world.
This time, my family and I went to Fukuoka instead of Tokyo or Osaka for a change. Surprisingly, there’s a direct flight from Manila to Fukuoka via Philippine Airlines. Glad to know that different parts of Japan are...

Christmas Shopping
Christmas shopping is something I look forward to every year. I don’t mind the insane traffic jams, and the massive amount of competitive people in shopping malls trying their very best to get the most affordable deals. I like shopping during this time of the year for a number of absolutely cheesy reasons. For one, holiday collections are usually full of super shiny shimmer and colors that...

Oversized
(Romwe oversized top, from Korea oversized polo shirt, Topshop leggings, Doc Martens boots, Kissaholic satchel) If you like, you can hype this look on Lookbook here.
On lazy mornings when the weather is chilly and when your bed is trying so hard to keep you from properly starting your day, oversized clothes are absolute shelter for me. It’s like carrying on with your life wearing only...

Corporate Sophisticate
(Romwe dress, Guess heels, Topshop necklace, Diva accessories) Hype on Lookbook here.
If the situation calls for this sort of fashion, my top-of-mind choice of dress would be one of my little black dresses with a super straight cut and long-ish sleeves. Throw in a nice golden clutch and this could transform into a good evening outfit. For quite some time now, I’ve been setting my eyes...

Just G: Keep Your Cool
(Just G top with bowtie and skirt with belt, San-Sue bag, Clothes for the Goddess wedges, Forever 21 ring) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
Upon realizing that my teal nail color matched my floral bowtie perfectly, a part of me just naturally picked clothes out with cool tones as a theme. Luckily, I was able to purchase a nice floral skirt that deviates from the normally pretty...

sweet studs
(Romwe dress, Michael Antonio heels, m)phosis necklace, from Malaysia detachable collar, from Hong Kong connector ring, Topshop nail polish) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
Two reasons why I just had to get this dress: 1) K-pop singer IU wearing the same sweet dress on Inkigayo last November (picture above), and 2) The shiny studs making all the difference in the world by being accessories...

Bayo: Country Girl
(Love Bayo top, Love Bayo shorts, Paris Dreams heels, Diva flower headband) Hype on Lookbook here.
12 days left before Christmas, and I’m already ready for summer. Florals and lace are staples in my closet - I can wear them all year round without having to take seasons into consideration. In this case, I wore them in a very country-esque manner, pairing my puffed sleeved peter pan...

Shiny Sequin Shorts
(Topshop sweater, Zara short, Guess heels, Dorothy Perkins clutch) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
Here’s another one of my holiday outfits! Wore this to a supposed movie night out with my boyfriend and some of our favorite Markprof friends, but traffic got the best of us and led us to a small nearby burger joint. Call me overdressed for burgers, and I’d totally put the blame on...

A Day With Bobo
My weekend in Kuala Lumpur was spent with this lovely lady right here:
Bobo was one of the first people who replied to me when I tweeted something about having time to meet some Malaysian readers interested to bring me around the city to kill some idle time before the MIFW (Malaysia International Fashion Week) gala nights. She was telling me how surprised she got when I tweeted her back in...

A Day With Cheesie
Pre-Liz Lisa-inspired shoot, I spent most of my day with Ringo/Cheesie while she had her photos taken for an online store called Lololook. Just before lunch, she dropped by for me at the hotel I was staying in (KL Hilton sponsored by MIFA). As soon as I got into her car, we greeted each other hello a number of times and also found ourselves giving each other a barrage of compliments which, when I...

Holiday Colors
(Zara top, Topshop shorts, Guess heels, clutch from Jerry and Sabrina - thanks!, Le Papillon earrings) Hype on Lookbook here.
One way to spice things up during the holidays is to use Christmas colors for your outfit! Red and green doesn’t always have to equal Christmas tree. Using other shades such as maroon and teal can produce interesting results. Donned this look on a hectic...

Sonya's Garden
(Tarte blazer, Topshop top, Romwe shorts, Asian Vogue boots, Forever 21 ring, Yhansy necklace, Japanese Candy circle lenses) Hype on Lookbook here.
On the first of December, my boyfriend and I went on a spontaneous road trip to Tagaytay to celebrate our week-apart birthdays. We ended up at Sonya’s Garden, which is this very quiet escape in the middle of...

cutout shoulders
(Jaspal dress, Yhansy necklace, Forever 21 ring) Hype on Lookbook here.
Quick self-snaps in the morning of the 26th. The light in my hotel room’s window was just too glorious that I had to take some obligatory back lit shots. No model in sight so I guess myself would do.
Wore this dress to a whole day of bonding with my new love Bobo (more pictures of my adventures with her in...
