Designs by Abby Jocson | ASTRID Duffel Php2750 I’m honestly never saw myself as the model-y type but I am always game for a fun #OOTD shoot!

If you answered yes to any of those questions, her bags are perfect for your lifestyle. I love how all her collections are locally made! Let’s support proudly Pinoy goods, yes? 🙂 Yuki Tansengco I think I’ve masted the kunwari “walking” pose after this shoot :)) DIY singlet I’m very into DIY so instead of purchasing my own “side boob” tank top, I cut up an old shirt and hemmed the sides. This black one’s an old oversized t-shirt. What do you think? Thrifted gold and leather boots  These boots also scored a number of compliments and my friends got surprised when I told them it came from a … thrift store! Told you I am a sucker for ukay pieces 😀 Hair color by Gionyx Hair & Nail Salon | Make-up by Shane Buhay of MAC Thank you…

With Oreo The Cat I have a strong admiration for people who excel in ballet. It takes a great deal of elegance, grace and a whole lot of hard work to do those moves. The closet thing I can get is this pretty neat braided hair bun! Hehe  Jellybean denim  Recently, I attended a fragrance launch for a company known in the ballet industry. Repetto finally twirls in its first fragrance in Manila!

Hair by Blo If she did – the Queen would have probably frowned upon this #GOTootd. Haha! Too much Game of Thrones lately inspired me to try interesting braided hairstyles. What do you think of this one? Sansa Stark (hair only) For some reason, I am deeply drawn to Sansa’s hairstyles in the show! Waterfall braids, braid crowns, messy curls, etc. This will be the first of many Sansa-inspired hair! Yuki Tansengco Wait til you see the fishtail details! 🙂 Stradivarius blazer Due to bipolar weather, I know make sure I wear something that can be for hot afternoons or cold air-conditioned places. To quickly convert this outfit to being “cold friendly”, I brought a scarf! Wacoal black bandeau To be honest, I couldn’t decide what top to pair these breezy shorts with so I just threw on a cotton blazer! I love how this bandeau can disguise itself as a top – just throw on layered necklaces. More styles over at Wacoal’s Facebook page!

Casual Sundays Let me know if you get the movie reference of my post title! 😉 Ever since college, I’ve always been one to lounge around baggy pants and loose shirts. It’s funny how until now – that’s still my favorite outfit on a casual day. How about you?  Yuki Tansengco Here are my must-haves to stay comfy yet efficient on an average errand day! 🙂 DIY shirt crop top | Promod summer pants | Havaianas First, have easy, breezy pants you can easily move around in. I like this one from Promod with no zippers and buttons. DIY shirt crop top Second, wear something that isn’t pawis-prone! Like this blue shirt I DIY-ed.

Rainy or cloudy days are a big sign not to wear white – imagine a blank canvas entering a battlefield.
