Prints and Color Make Me Feel Good

August 20, 2011
Saturday, at home

Prints and colors are my thing. I love black and white though but I have to agree that colors make the world (and us) beautiful. It brings out the color of our eyes, the color of our hair, the sheen of our skin tone, and the beauty of our faces. Colors go together with prints. I particularly love this ikat printed skirt from TopPicks Couture. I paired it with my sheer black top to tone down the color and print. I love turquoise blue, it instantly warms up olive skin tones. Here's my outfit on a lazy Saturday afternoon:

   

Sheer top and skirt both from TopPicks Couture

Earrings from The Ramp

Clutch from 50th Ave.

Shoes borrowed from sister

Pink is Sexy!

Last Wednesday night, my friends and I went out for another night out at Republiq. I haven't gone out for a month so I was super excited to drink and dance the night away with my girls.  Here's what I wore:

Top from TopPicks Couture, skirt from Zoo Shop, shoes from Zara, bag from Dorothy Perkins

At Resorts World Manila

With my new friend, Rawlin. I met her the night we took this photo

I decided to wear the sheer black top and pink ruched skirt (the same top and skirt that was featured in my blog last Sunday).  I put my hair up in a bun all day then I just let it all down come nighttime, put some curling wax and voila instant wavy hair!

Rawlin and I

Rawlin, me, and Vhaya. I loooove partying with these girls. :D

With Em and Sherrie. Love the leopard print top girl! :)

Party people in the house!!!

Here are what my friends wore. They all look soooo fab! Sherrie in a leopard printed top and ripped short shorts, Vhaya in a sheer top and tulip skirt, Rawlin in a feminine floral dress, and Em in a gingham polo and jeans.

We capped the night off with an early breakfast at McDonald's, sharing stories, and taking more photos.  This is simply one of the best things in life - spending some fun time with friends. God, I love being single. :)

Mid-July Purchases

I was browsing through Preview July issue and several things caught my attention.  Fashion inspirations draw from every page, now I can't help but share these with you. But before that, I wanna share with you first the recent puchases I made. Sis is too busy to take photos of me wearing these so I might as well take the photo of it myself (minus me. Lol.)

the garden makes for a great summer backdrop. :)

Dorothy Perkins clutch

Printed skirt and sheer top from TopPicks Couture

Topmost photo from right: Bondage skirt and black sheer top, both from TopPicks, a really dark, skinny pair of jeans from Bench, and a pink ruched skirt from Zoo Shop. I will publish an outfit post wearing these really soon. Last Friday, before going home from work, I dropped by at Dorothy Perkins since a SALE is posted in front of their store. I'm a sucker for sale, really!

Dorothy Perkins huge clutch in soft black leather

I got this really nice clutch at half the price! I loooove sale! I literally went crazy at Dorothy Perkins shop, there are nice dresses (but sadly, the dresses I like don't have my size), clutches, and flowy tops. It's heaven for me!
