High Slit, High Hopes Ever since that day Kendall Jener wore that double-slit to the MMVA’s, I will not be surprised with the next celebrity who’ll wear something that will leave little to the imagination. Haha! Ahm Rihanna’s dress last time Yuki Tansengco But slits can be fun! You can place ‘em in the most unexpected places just like this “Jamie” top from Teena Sabrina. Coincidentally, my jeans too! in Two Parkade, BGC I wore this outfit to an event which you can read about here. Probably the last person but it’s my first time to check out Two Parkade. I love it! They have Dr Martens! Care for some extra wind? Messy hair, don’t care  I’m one who never brushes her hair but what I’ll never miss out on is hair care! I just tried on a deep conditioning treatment from Macadamia Natural Oil and the results are fantastic! Teena Sabrina Slit Top | Zara black denim | Debenhams heels I’m starting to rethink if I should’ve worn this outfit without the jeans? Lol! Just kidding. Or maybe one of these days. Hahaha! Sabrina | “JAMIE” Shift Top So breezy! Wear this top as a dress or as a…

Not So Mellow Yellow Another outfit that belongs to my “Business in the Front; Party in the Back” series: this ATL Low Back Dress! Because of it, I am now a complete fan of rectangular dresses! Business in Front, Party in the Back It may be rainy season now but sure enough, the sun will come shining in! This dress is an instant pick-me-upper on a gloomy day. It’s so bright! Haha I love it! 🙂 Yuki Tansengco Want to know more about ATL? There is more to love aside from this pretty Canary Yellow dress! :3 in Manille Doesn’t this venue sort of give an international vibe? So I guess “Manille” is appropriate. Haha! This was shot just by the entrance of SMX in Mall of Asia! ATL dress | LV Never-full | Parisian flats What I loved about this day was that Blo had a booth during the Superb Bazaar was I was able to have my hair done. When your mane is fixed, it definitely ties up your whole look!

W.E. Garage maxi dress There are times that our outfits can reflect two things: Business in the front and a party in the back! This is exactly how to describe this maxi dress.  Unexpected cut-outs I’m a fan of cut-outs but to some extent, I still want it to look conservative. Does that make sense? Conservative cut-outs, yeah?    Yuki Tansengco So, are you ready to join the party? 😉 Haha let’s go!  W.E. Garage “Nicole” maxi dress | Php1200 I named this dress after my best friend, Nicole! Coincidentally, it perfectly describes her personality. Business in front and party in the back! She’s fun like that 😉 Statement neckpiece | Possible DIY? When wearing something basic, step up your accessory game with a statement neckpiece. Check this one out – I’m sure you can even DIY this! 😉 “Nicole” dress | Back details Ta-daaaa! Told you it was a party in the back 😉 I love how the cut-outs make this dress extra breezy and comfy to wear! Tres Shoes |  Riley in Taupe I love these sandals! You won’t believe how comfy it is til you try it 😉 To celebrate Independence Day, Tres Shoes is offering 25%…

Beachy Waves 101 Truth be told, my hair is not one to cooperate with hairstyles. I’m the type of girl who spends almost an hour in a salon chair – only to find out my curls disappear in 30 minutes until I discovered a secret! Classic denim and leopard With great hair is a simple outfit. I’ve always been laid back in my style and to be honest, I love to live in button downs and all things animal print. Yuki Tansengco When you go for a simple outfit such as a denim polo and white shorts, don’t be afraid to add a touch of color! I love these bright red flats from Tres shoes! Thank you Kash and Mela! Loose, Beach-y Waves And now, here is the mane attraction: how to keep ‘em curls the whole day! GLITTERS denim button down | CROW origami shorts | TRES red flats Cool and casual is how I’d describe this outfit. I wore it on a day of errands around Rockwell and it’s just so comfy! GLITTERS denim button down with leopard trimming Special thanks to Julia of the online shop GLITTERS! Congrats on your business! 🙂 To see more of their…

Yuki Tansengco Hellooo! Time flies so fast I can’t believe it’s almost mid-June already. Weren’t we just stuffing ourselves during the holidays? But hold up, why is it still super warm? :/ W.E. Garage white crop top | Aldo carry-all | Zara pointed suede pumps It’s been really warm lately but to avoid showing off too much skin, this is what I wore to an event during broad daylight. Keep cool by sticking to light colors! Storm brown leather watch | Aldo tote bag Also, you can beat the heat by skipping the accessories! No more necklaces, rings or bracelets – just a practical watch. W.E. Garage “Malibu” full skirt | Nick Automatic pin Check out this newly released skirt by W.E. Garage! It looks so refreshing and I love the parrot details on the print. To order this crop top and skirt, head over to facebook.com/wegarage! Thank you to Catch for taking these photos! Fresh! I cant wait for the rainy season na 🙂 Yuki Tansengco Thanks for dropping by! Let me know what you think by dropping a comment below or on my IG via @yukitansengco! Have a tropical Sunday, Yuki (Photos by Catch Gaviola)

Yuki Tansengco I don’t know if it’s just me but I always get the feeling that it feels warmer whenever I wear darker colors. Hmmm – is that true? If that’s the case, I’d wear pastels any day! Hair by Blo Blow Dry Bar I’d like to share with you my latest addiction: getting my hair done by Blo! Blo Blow Dry Bar offers hairstyling services at an affordable price! They have expanded into 4 branches all over Metro Manila! Warm eyes and bold lips And of course, good hair needs to be matched with lovely make-up! Guess who did mine? 😉 Marni top | Plains and Prints trousers | Debenhams pointed heels If there is one clothing staple that you must have: it’s a good pair of trousers. Once you find the best fitting pair, don’t think twice and buy it in neutral colors.  Ferragamo | Vera 2-Way Handbag It also doesn’t hurt to invest in a signature handbag. Believe me, ladies, these are investments and not expenses. You’ll use it for many years instead of buying a fancy bag that’ll you’d want to dispose in a month. Make-up by Ham Viloria For an unexpected twist for this look,…

Yuki Tansengco Hellooo! I’m so happy I get to blog tonight – even if its almost midnight! :)) Aren’t you glad the weather is sort of getting cooler now? Haha! I’m here to share with you what went down during the recent Bloggers United 7 and of course – ze outfit of that day!  😉 Bloggers United 7 This year, Bloggers United decided to take it to the next level, a bigger venue and more booths for everyone to shop at! It was held in Metrotent, Ortigas – right behind MetroWalk. How exciting!! Tickled Pink I can’t wait to share with you guys my outfit mainly because it’s 100% locally made!! You definitely gotta love your own 🙂 Yuki Tansengco I arrived at BU7 a bit past 10am and I was surprised to see how many people were already lined up by the entrance – even there for hours before it opened. What I really liked about it is that they were of all ages, different walks of life but collected for one purpose – an interactive shopping affair! W.E. Garage striped crop top | Vintage hot pink pencil skirt I’ll tell you a secret about this top – it…

Lady In Red When you shop, don’t you always find yourselves sticking to neutrals? Getting something in either black, white, beige or grey? How come? Challenge yourself and pick out things with a pop of color! Yuki Tansengco Lately, I realized that I were to choose the next “neutral” color to add in my wardrobe, it’ll be red! Believe it or not, but a pop of red will go absolutely with anything. Zara red trousers Paint the town red! Lemme me show you how else you can incorporate red in your daily outfits! in Makati In my past blog posts, I discussed how you can play around with the smart casual dress code at work. You don’t need to stick to the blacks and dark blues because with our weather lately, definitely black is something to shy away from. Zara red trousers | Debenhams court heels  I actually wore this at work and my colleagues liked it! It’s a fresh take and the red instantly brightens up your look. You can add the “neutrals” touches with your bag and shoes! Ferragamo Vara 2-Way Embossed Hand Bag I love how this bag is just right for its size. I used to think…

Yuki Tansengco Earlier this week, I gave a talk on the appropriate styles for each body type to a group of women and that’s when I realized: I fall under the “rectangle” body type. So I’d like to dedicate this post on styles to accentuate and compliment our almost non-existing curves.  Rags 2 Riches “Buslo” bag I believe it’s all about proportion and balance. Forget the fashion rules on “layering” to add curves, etc. I want you to embrace your body type and even if you’re a “rectangle”, you can still wear fitted clothing!  Freego Jeans In my younger years, I used to hate wearing fitted clothes such as jeans and leggings. I thought it made me look thinner and highlight my stick figure but I’m so happy to have found a denim brand that tailors jeans so well! Freego Jeans Super Shaper So ladies, forget the 30,40,50 squats per day. There’s a quicker and less tiring solution – Freego Super Shaper jeans! It’s currently my favorite and I am amazed on how it fits. It’s all about choosing the right cut and wash for you. “Buslo” by Rags 2 Riches Also one of my current faves, this carry-all from…

MYOH 2014 I strongly recall my first encounter with Make Your Own Havaianas (MYOH) back in 2007. Fond memories of learning, laughter and love – but that’s another story. Haha! But kidding aside, I’m glad to say I’ve grown up with MYOH! Customize Your Own Pair! MYOH lets you have fun by giving you the freedom to customize your very own pair of Havaianas! Choose your own sole and strap color and make it look even cooler by adding a few pins. I had a hard time picking a combination! Assembling a pair in MYOH From 2007, 5 MYOH events forward as an assembler, I am in front of the counter for the first time and it felt really exciting. Here’s Jay helping me make my pair! MYOH 2014 MYOH definitely knows how to bring it on bigger and better! This year, it was held in the Glorietta Activity Center and the MYOH 2014 family got bigger as well! See what we down during the Media Launch! Yuki Tansengco Make Your Own Havaianas (MYOH) ran from May 8 to May 11 in the Glorietta Activity Center. The media launch, held two days earlier, felt like a summer party in the…
