Fabulous Christmas

                 It's fun spending Christmas with family, awesome friends and even nice strangers. Everyone is kind and happy. There's just so much love and generosity. This is the BEST Christmas I ever had for such a long time. My family never liked spending Christmas after my uncle died during Christmas AND his birthday eight years ago. (May he rest in peace)
                 I'm glad that this year I felt that we have finally moved on. We even had noche buena together! (Imagine my smile while writing this blog post). I'm so sorry for the no-so-good photos, I enjoyed myself so much that I did not even bother thinking about the quality of the photos. *puppy eyes
                      
                      What I do hate during the holidays is that I gain so much weight from all the parties, reunions and buffets. I'm such a sweet tooth I can't even... *sigh* I really have to exercise a lot after this vacation. TT


                      Celebrating the holidays need not to be expensive or outrageous. All you gotta do is be with good company (and endless FOOD SUPPLY, just kidding). The photo below shows me and my beloved lola. We were both wearing electric pleated skirts last Sunday. Did I mention we're also wearing the same lipstick shade and nail polish? She's 84 but still critics trends like an immortal fashion police. Sure, she gets cranky (must be the age) at times but I love her so much. She's getting old but I really wish it's not her last Christmas with us.

                       Ooookay! Before I cry a river, let's shift to a lighter topic. Have a FABULOUS Christmas and spend NEW YEAR with a BLAST!

Feel the Yuletide

                  Yey! Can you feel the Christmas air? Been busy lately that's why I wasn't able to update immediately. Peace? *puppy eyes*
                   Anyway, move on to my outfit. I received this sheer top and lace shorts from my grandmother as an early Christmas gift. I swear my lola is the most fashionable woman ever seen. She's 84 but still wears heels. (She's used to wearing 4-6 inches but my mom would not allow it anymore so she settling for 2-3 in.) I know, she's amazing.
                   I wore this during my friend's birthday. She said we had to wear a dress but I wasn't in the mood to wear skirts. So, I came up with this look. Yes, I was wearing shorts but it still looks formal and dressy for the occasion, right? 

 


                    I just had to sneak in my outfit shot this day even if it was super busy. The lace shorts is just lovely. I can pair it with a lot of tops. I'm loving sheer tops right now because it looks formal but you won't look too stuffy. This necklace is actually a belt. Hehe. I use it as a bracelet, necklace or a belt. Accessories allow me to be resourceful. 


                   Thanks to Apple for taking these shots in five minutes (?) It was that quick. Happy holidays everyone! :)

Ombre

               I'm back! After weeks and weeks and weeks of hiatus, I'm blogging again and I will try to keep it updated. *determined face*
               A lot happened during my hiatus. All of my photos went kaput! (All meant EVERY PHOTO I KEPT FOR THREE YEARS! T.T) Last semester was crazy busy. I had to start from scratch for my blog entries and I'm busy with my online store. I promise I will launch the first collection within this month.
              Now, let's proceed to my outfit. Lately, I noticed that florals, pastels and lace invaded my closet. If only my fourteen year-old self will see my current closet, she'd shrivel up and die (I'm not joking). For years, I collected black, edgy and studded pieces before I started experimenting on feminine/'girly girl' styles.
              My new ombre hair says hi! It's been months since I really wanted to bleach my hair. I just DIY-ed it and I'm really glad with the results! Woot!

                 To make my hair stand out, I decided to go back to my basic black ensemble. As usual, I was in a hurry so I picked up this animal printed top to make the look interesting and not plain.

               What's so cool about this top are the studs and shiny beads. Print + Studs+ shiny beads = what more could I ask for in a top?! I also paired this top with a pair of leggings since it's a long top.
                This photo was just taken randomly by my ambush photographer, Aeda. She said she wanted a levitation shot and I just jumped when she told me so. Ick! Sorry for the awkward pose but I love how my hair swayed in that photo.

                On a different note, the search for the next Miss UP Cebu 2013 will be starting SOON! Please like this page for updates. This event is brought to you by B&B Productions (to which I am part of). It's gonna be our biggest production ever and I'm pretty excited about it. I was a contestant last year and it's really different when you're now a part of the production. :)
