Eastern Elements
(Everything from Forever 21) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
A blazer that takes a modern cue from kimonos and a top with the most adorable little fan prints! Oriental-inspired clothes are some of the most fascinating things, and it helps that a lot of stores nowadays are selling clothes with prints and colors like these.
Paired my silky jacket with some girly cream tulle and cream oxfords...

Collar on Collar
(Clothes for the Goddess top and shoes, My Cup of Tea shorts, San Sue clutch, Ferreted necklace) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
It’s a fact that I love everything about collars! So much that I find myself wearing them almost everyday.
What’s more perfect than wearing two collars at the same time? The necklace I’m wearing here somehow ended up looking like part of the...

Matching Mint
(Clothes for the Goddess top, Zara skirt, Forever 21 bag and socks, Michael Antonio heels, m)phosis spiked headband) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
Colored socks! I went crazy when I saw these sheer ones that have tiny hearts on them. Spazzed so much I got it in 3 different colors - yellow, green and black! I’m definitely the type of person who gets the same design in different colors....

Gold and Gunmetal Gray
(Stylistaph top and collar necklace, People are People skirt, Gold Dot clutch, Esperanza boots, Forever 21 cuff) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
Mixing metallics and neutrals for a change. Also, if you’ve noticed, yellow is my “it” color for the month! Surely there are no complications and complex things when it’s all just black and white, but adding a pop of color...

The Golden Rule
(Clothes for the Goddess top, My Cup of Tea pants, Dazzled bag, Chilli Margarita heels, Ferreted necklace) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
Gold accessories are totally my favorite accents to neutrals. They give off a very elegant vibe, don’t you think? A combination as casual as a loose black collared shirt and a simple pair of brown skinny pants can look more polished if paired with...

High Heels High Hopes
(Just G top, jacket and skirt, FFAQ heels, Zara bag, Elle Poupee hairclip) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
High heels, high hopes. I know it takes a lot more than wearing high heels to become confident that things will go well, but it definitely helps. For me, at least.
When I feel down but have to go out of the house for work or errands, I make sure I dress up properly. I’d feel so...

Pop of Yellow
(The Stylogist top, Promod skirt, Fashion Trends Collections detachable collar, Forever 21 heels, Gold Dot clutch, The Style Machine Hello Kitty glasses) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
Yellow! I’m quite happy that detachable collars are pretty much everywhere now. I still remember wearing a customized one last September, and being one of the first few local bloggers (if not the first)...

Cheetah on Lace
(Seventh Street dress, Les Moda leggings, Esperanza boots, Mia Casa earrings and necklace, Yhansy ring) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
Lace is associated to sweet and girly, while animal prints are associated to sexy and fierce. Together, they surprisingly work! Just wanted to share another outfit that’s out of my comfort zone.
Yesterday, I stumbled upon a wonderful quote. Neale...

Stay Ahead
Summer break is right around the corner. I mean, summer break for students! /facepalms
I can’t believe it’s already been two years since I graduated. When I was in school, I wanted to graduate as soon as possible. When I finally finished school, I wanted to go back and live like a student again. I can’t express enough my feelings on how I think students have it so much...

Polka Dot Polka
(Stylebook MNL top, Lololook skirt, Poise heels, Yhansy necklace, Gold Dot clutch) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
Outgrew my McDonalds insecurity and finally got to wear bright red! After I bleached my hair blonde a few months back, I remember expressing my feelings about being extra sensitive not to wear this color. Why? Because my hair looks extra yellow when I wear bright red. The...

Bayo: Key Pieces
It’s quite easy to be overwhelmed with clothes. When you go inside a store and buy something that catches your attention, you normally overlook how it would look like with the rest of the items in your closet. When the times comes when you finally decide to wear it, you become so dumbfounded that you just end up wearing that item with all your other favorite items in the hopes of making it...

Catherine Jannelle: Skin Changer
(Photography by Tricia Gosingtian, styling and clothes by Catherine de Jesus, make-up by Kaycee Lim, hair by Ash Kagami, model: Tori Rosso)
Cat is one of the most talented, most hard-working designers I know. It was such a pleasure being able to collaborate with her differently this time. She used to model and style for me before, but I’ve always wanted to spread the beauty that is her...

Red, White and Blue
(Photos by Edric Chen, color grading by me; W♥C top and Scawaii bow jeans from Minimaos, Carmelletes loafer heels) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
One random, rainy afternoon last February, my good friend Edric and I decided to catch up on life. We haven’t seen each other for the longest time, but we definitely still continued to silent support each other’s work via...

Toss the Feathers
(Everything from Forever 21) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
Recently, I’ve been experimenting with a lot of different styles. Normally I can be seen wearing either something that’s super dainty, lace and ribbons and all, or something that’s very basic and preppy with my favorite collared button-downs and black platform booties. While these remain to be my default looks,...

Blush
(Sheinside blazer, Topshop top and shorts, from HK socks, Feet for a Queen heels, Wi accessories)
Quick post on an old Lookbook entry before I fly out of town for an advocacy.
Boyish elements in one of the most girly color combinations. Sometimes it’s really fun to play with opposites and mix them all together like this. The main point of this outfit is this blazer. Isn’t the...
