Outfit Of The Day: Miss Kitty

If there's a particular trend that I'm totally digging right now, it would be the chiffon kimono style cardigans.
I don't know if its the style or the fabric that makes an outfit a little more... luxurious?
I personally love them because I can wear my tank tops, sleeveless dresses and other tops I can't wear by itself. I also love the idea of wearing them over a bikini, so this will be a staple on my Boracay trip this December :)

I was easily drawn to this cardigan because of the print. 
I'm not really a cat person, but I just think the little kitties with bows are too cute to pass up. :) 
I wore this on one of those days that I was so bored so I went to the mall. 




What I Wore:

Cardigan - Greenhills
Tank top - Cache Cache
Shorts - Jus Ur Size by SM Ladies Fashion
Shoes - Comfit by Michael Antonio
Bag - H&M
Watch - Timex

Outfit Of The Day: Little White Dress

A boring corporate outfit (or any outfit for that matter) depresses me. 
That's probably one of the reasons why I avoid the old-school corporate world.
I was invited for a job interview by this online gaming company, and asked me to come in corporate attire.
I really couldn't bear wearing the usual blah corporate clothes, so I wore something that fits my taste and at least a little office chic. 


What I Wore:

Blazer - Jus Ur Size by SM ladies Fashion
Dress - Betty by SM Girls Teens' Wear
Tights - Forever 21
Shoes - Comfit by Michael Antonio
Bag - H&M
Watch - Timex

Outfit Of The Day: Buckle It Up With Gold

It was my nephew's baptism and of course, I'm a godmother.
I wanted to wear something popping and colorful with my usual black blazer, tights, and wedges, so I chose this bright salmon (pink orange) a-line dress that I paired with this fabulous belt with gold buckle.

I really like wearing belts in the narrowest part of my mid section because it compliments my curves. ;)




What I Wore:

Blazer - Redhead by SM Girls Teens' Wear
Dress - People Are People
Belt - Dorothy Perkins
Tights - Forever 21
Shoes - Mossimo

Outfit Of The Day: Pink Amidst the Black

The cold breeze and drizzle that evening made me layer up my clothing to keep me warm.
I can't believe its been raining for 2 weeks. You can almost forget we live in a tropical country.

I was invited by a new good friend to check out this new Korean restaurant in Il Terrazzo, Yoogane.
Next post will be about this awesome new place, perfect for those who aren't afraid of hot dishes! ;)

I wanted something warm, comfortable but still cute, in a way. 
So this is what I came up with.



What I Wore:

Boyfriend cardigan - Hong Kong Ladies Market
Tank top - Debenhams
Bodycon skirt - Forever 21
Tights - Landmark
Socks - H&M
Chucks - Shoe Salon
Bag - Celine

Outfit Of The Day: Dark Hue Of Florals

It's not just a movie date night, it is the "Dark Knight" movie date night! 

In lieu with the movie we planned to watch, I wanted to wear something a little darker but still girly.

The photos taken in the SM Mall Of Asia parking were taken past 12 midnight, 
so I'm sorry for looking haggard. LOL

Thanks Jeff for taking my photos. <3

Black tank top - Forever 21
Floral skirt - Forever 21

Chilipina, Featured in SM Girls Teens Wear, AGAIN!

Spotted AGAIN in SM Girls Teens' Wear!




Made it to SM Girls Teens' Wear Facebook Page, AGAIN! Feels just as awesome as the first time. :)
This is my first mullet anything. Hahaha! I love the fact that it's the more wearable kind of mullet.
The front part of the dress is not too high. I also love the chiffon fabric.

Outfit Of The Day: Retro Mullet

I was really hesitant about this trend: the high-lows and mullet style of dresses and skirts. 
I remember ranting to a girlfriend that I don't get the point of this. 
Why can't they just make it either short, or long? But now I caught myself embracing this trend. 
Funny thing is, for a second there, I forgot that fashion doesn't always make sense. 
Its an art; a medium of self-expression, and output of one's creativity. So how could I have judged it? 

This mullet dress is not the most obvious kind. The front part is not that high unlike your usual mullet dress / skirts. It's also in gorgeous pleated chiffon, giving it a romantic feel. I also love the playful retro print. It's originally a sleeveless dress, but yeah like I would wear such in a public place (except if I'm going swimming, of course).

I donned this outfit during an event by a local beauty and spa clinic.

Outfit Of The Day: White & Black

Invest on classic, timeless pieces. They never go out of style.

A classic white polo and black shorts are just 2 of the must-have pieces for every fashionistas out there. These 2 pieces will go a long way. Dress them up, dress them down; the possibilities are endless.

This is what I wore to the Couleurs La Femme event held in One Esplanade, since they asked us guests to wear white. It actually became a joke because everyone thought / teased that I looked like a doctor. ;)




What I Wore:

White chiffon top - Thrifted
Black shorts - SM Ladies Fashion
Shoes and bag - Hong Kong

Outfit Of The Day: Casually Dressed Up

This could have been a nice date outfit. But nah, I wore it for the We Got DIBS 2 held in Urban Athletics last Saturday night. Yes, I know. This was a bit too "dressed up" for a hip hop / urban event, but I really don't care. If I'm in the mood to look girly and sophisticated, I will do it.

I love the contrast of the blue chiffon dress with the tailored white blazer. Again, contrasts make things more interesting, at least for me. :)
What I Wore:

White blazer - Topshop
Dress - Jellybean
Sandals - People Are People
Bag - Hong Kong

Chilipina, Featured in SM Girls Teens Wear


Look who's featured in SM Girls Teens Wear! :)



I was beyond thrilled when I received an email that I was featured in SM Girls Teens Wear Facebook page. I'm a loyal customer of SM Ladies Fashion and SM Girls Teens Wear because their stuff are gorgeous but won't break my budget. I also love the P100 discount coupon they have for the GTW department. Click HERE for more information about that.

It really feels good when you're passion is recognized. Its not just a form of validation that you're doing something right or well, but also because its like a "nod" or "thumbs up" from the brand or company that you believe in.

More outfits to be posted soon! ;)

Outfit Of The Day: Tuck It In

Everything has rules. They are either shoved down your throat or accepted with all one's heart. The thing is, there are rules that are just meant to be broken. No, murder is not one of them. But the lighter things like dressing up (or down, for that matter) should be done or practiced with one's heart's content. Of course, you still want to be respected, but breaking (or bending) some of them is quite liberating..and fun. Try it once in a while and I'm sure you'll get the hang of it. :)
 

The fashion rule I love to break: When you're on the bigger side, never tuck in your top.

Outfit Of The Day: Lazy Saturday

It was a Saturday, and it was all about socializing. I've been itching for a spa day, so I went to Beauty and Butter in SM Mall Of Asia. Then I met up with my girlfran, Carol, around lunchtime and we did some shopping and ate some Hong Kong-inspired food. We hung out until 4:00pm, and then I had to go to the Kroketten event. It was quite fun because I got to spend time with my blogger friends and was able to meet new people. Anyway, it was a lazy day for me so I just wore something comfortable. :)

Outfit Of The Day: Where Are You, Dorothy?

 It was my Aunt's birthday. In our family, when someone celebrates his/her birthday, you have to wear something red. I don't have a "proper" red dress, so I just wore a few reds here and there. The highlight of my outfit? Red shoes. :) When I hear red shoes, the first thing that comes to mind is Dorothy of Wizard of Oz. So this is my own interpretation of Dorothy. :)


The Inspiration
 


My Take On It




 What I Wore:

Dress - People Are People
Cardigan - Landmark
Shoes - Bazaar
Socks - Hong Kong




Outfit Of the Day: Minty Dots and Neutrals

For a change, I wore an outfit that didn't include tights or boots. I was feeling a little whimsical that day, probably because its Father's Day.

I really like this skirt that I got from SM Girls Teens' Wear. It was straight off the runways of Philippine Fashion Week. It looks a little intimidating at first, a piece not everyone would get or dare wear. But of course, that just added more charms to it for me. :)





What I wore:

Skirt - SM Girls Teens' Wear
Cardigan - Landmark
Ribbed v-neck top - Debenhams
Tube top - Bazaar
Belt - Dorothy Perkins
Shoes - People Are People
Necklace - SM Accessories
Earrings - Forever 21

Outfit Of The Day: My Heart Is Yours

Red and black is such a nice color combination. The warm, powerful red paired with the dark, mysterious black just oozes sexiness. Even with the simplest cuts and styles, with this power duo, you're all set.

What I Wore:

Black knitted top - Forever 21, P1275
Skirt - Forever 21, P505
Tights - Landmark

Outfit Of The Day: Chiffon And Denim

Contrasts yet compliments; that's how I would define the combination of the very feminine chiffon, and the quite structured denim. Actually, I find contrasting duos very interesting. It just shows that diversity and variety is beautiful.





What I Wore:

Chiffon topper/cardigan - SM Girls Teens' Wear, P499.75
Racerback top - Xhilaration
Jeans - Debenhams, P2300
Boots - Babo

Outfit Of The Day: Boots, Fans, and a Bow

Who would wear layers of clothing (and boots to top it off) in a very sunny and humid Sunday? Me. :)

The entire family was quite disappointed with the outcome of the recent Pacquiao-Bradley fight, so we decided to go out and have a family day in MOA. (Huge mistake. There was a sea of people so we really didn't enjoy, good thing we went to S&R after).

 It was our first "family day" with my niece and baby nephew. I wanted to don something I'm sure nobody would wear, so the boots is an obvious choice. everything else just fell together. So yes, this is what I came up with.

 



 





What I Wore:

Dress - SM Girls Teens' Wear, P599.75
Cardigan - SM Ladies Fashion
Tights - Forever 21, P350
Boots - Janylin
Bag - H&M, 150HKD

Outfit Of The Day: Boots Can Be Girly

I was feeling all girly that Saturday night. It was (supposedly) the last weekend of summer, so might as well enjoy it with one of my very few floral dresses. I'm not exactly the girly girl, but I sure enjoy being one once in a while. I was off to SM Mall Of Asia with my college buddies, and knowing we will be walking around, heels is not an option.

One of my fashion philosophies:
You can never go wrong with a pretty pair of flat boots. :)

 

 

What I Wore:

Blue Calvin Klein Blazer - Thrifted
Floral dress - Landmark, P229.75
Boots - Zara, P2,495
Bag - H&M, 150HKD

Outfit Of The Day: Coachella Mode

I've decided to let my leggings rest since it's summer. 
It was really hard for me to adjust since I haven't been exposing my troso legs for quite some time now. Also, avoiding leggings/tights means I can't wear my mini skirts (especially because I commute everyday and I live in Sampaloc), so my only bottom option is shorts.

This particular humid summer day, I was in the mood of "dressing up" without the usual frills and florals, so I instantly thought of what I would wear for Coachella (if ever I would go).

This is what I came up with. :)




What I'm Wearing:

Madonna shirt - People Are People, 299php (on sale)
Denim shorts - SM Department Store (Plus Size), 599php
Boots - Babo, 1800php
Bag - H&M, 150HKD
Aviators - Forever 21, 225php
