Chiffon and Pink Cotton is Sweet

Friday, Espalanade, SG

Pink is not in my list of favorite colors, nor girly and sweet is not my style. I am always in dark colors. Black, preferably, is my favorite color along with fiery red and passionate purple. Urban and sexy is my style. And because I'm in the corporate world, I am required to dress in a corporate manner, thus pencil skirts and tulip dresses found their way in my closet. I always try to inject a fashionable and chic appeal in the way I dress even if I am at work. And for this particular post, since I will be doing a lot of walking, I decided to dress up in an easy manner.

I decided to leave the top tucked out of the pink ruched skirt to give it a more lazy and easy feel. I just put on my flats and off I go. Sometimes, it's fun to dress down especially on lazy days or on those days that you know you'll need to do a lot of roaming around.  Well, this day is one of those days.

I had my hair cut before I left Manila. Rachel Zoe was my peg since I was reading her book that day and thought that long hair with soft layers is the look I wanna go for. This hair style is such an easy do to don. You can just let your hair down and air dry it or you may want to put it up in a messy chignon which is very Kate Moss kind of sexy.

For the past few weeks, I caught myself daydreaming of sheer tops.  I have a particular design in mind - a black free-size button down with cut outs just below the bra line. I saw this particular top worn by actress Lovi Poe in one of her interviews. I just find it so sexy and classy at the same time. Sexy without going overboard and without showing too much skin.

I love how this top makes the wearer sexy, not in a provocative way, but I think it makes such a classy taste. It can take you from the boardroom to the club to the bedroom! If you prefer to wear it in the office, wear a tank top inside. For cocktails with the girls, just toss the tank top, wear your hair up in a bun, change your earrings into a dangling one (for this look, I chose to accentuate my ears with the peacock pair my sister found in a thrift shop), toss the big bag and grab your clutch.

Photo op session at GA Tower elevator and lobby, just before we hit the road for yet another night out.

I just looooove barkada pics! With me are Vhaya, Em, and Tin. On our way to Amber Ultralounge after partying at 7th High

This is my favorite photo of the night. Posing in front of the club. 

I'm always on the lookout for clothes that will flatter my size, my shape, the color of my skin and hair. Since I'm not blessed with the natural height, I always opt to wear platforms to look taller and would normally wear short bottoms (like this super short shorts here) to lengthen my legs. Another tip to look long-legged? Apply body oil all over your legs and watch your gams glow. This is a trick models used to do during a fashion show.

Along the streets of The Fort. This makes for a good backdrop for photos, don't you agree?

Party!

See, the short hemline makes my legs look longer. :)

For makeup, I decided to rock the smokey eye look and pair it with a nude lip. This is my uniform look when I go out at night since I find smokey eyes sexy and alluring.
