TENNIS PLAYER

Hello everyone! How was your Christmas? Was it a merry one? :)

Mine was chaotic but merry! Our household was full of children (including me! Haha.) But really our noche buena was more of a children's party! But we didn't mind at all. You can't help the faces of my cute little patooties nephews and niece! It was exhausting though because you have to make sure they are safe and you have to follow them wherever they go ;) #TitaDuties.

Days ago (I could hardly remember!) my sister told us that we'll be going to Davao to have our passports renewed. Since they were strict regarding their dress codes I had to dress up behave-ly (No peek-a-boos for now!). So I opted to wear this white crisp polo shirt and paired it with a vibrant patterned shorts + these spiky-homicidal-loafers!

So who here agrees that I just looked like a Tennis Player? Anyone? (Haha!) I don't know about you but I kinda looked like a tennis player with my #OOTD. All I need is my racket and my tennis ball to complete the tennis player vibe!

Blue Weather

Woke up to a #SweaterWeather kind of weather today and I rushed immediately to my suitcase (Yes, I haven't unpack since then. #ForgiveMe!) to see if I packed sweaters, tights and other cover-ups to insulate me from the cold. And luckily I did! (I just exaggerated the rush thingy though. Lol) But really I was so excited to dress up already!

Wearing sweaters and tights makes me feel like I'm from a different country (You feel me noh?). The perks of enjoying the snow and getting frozen by the negative degrees of temperature! I'm the type of girl who'd rather tolerate cold than heat. So when weather like these occupy our tropical country I don't hesitate to wear such clothing (e.g., sweaters, tights, boots, coats, blazers, hat, etc.) even if I get a lot of stares from strangers! #DontMindDontCare.

P.S. I'm not gonna lie I did get a lot of different stares from strangers! ;)

According to my readings their stares meant:

1.) Where is she going anyway?!

2.) I like her outfit! I wish I could dress up like her!

3.) We are in a tropical country! Why is she wearing something like winter-ish?

4.) Is she really that cold?

5.) I like color blue!

6.) WTF?!!?

Hahaha. I don't know if my readings are even legit but what do you think of my #OOTD when you see me in person? Please do leave a comment! (Much appreciated!) :)

I really took the opportunity to dress up like I'm in Forks (or in any cold places!). I didn't really care what would others think. I might look overdress just because Mr.Sun didn't come out. But hey, it's not everyday that we experience this kind of weather so might as well gear up!

Wearing sweaters and feelin' like its winter is legit because it's Christmas anyway! Speaking of, only one day left before Christmas Day. Happy Holidays everyone and have a merry one! :)

Primary Colors

Since it's almost Christmas I opted to wear primary colors that are also Christmas colors too! By the way, my ID got confiscated for violating one of my school's dress code in which I wore a see-through top. Ooops! #SorryNotSorry. Fashion kills, in my case fashion is also about violating the norms. #DeviantMe!

I never thought blue and red would be a good pair. And to my surprise it did! Dare to be #cuhluhful! Never be afraid pairing a color with another color. This is one of my faves things to do - #ColorBlocking.

Forgive me for I have been overusing my golden yellow strap sandals. I just can't help it they always match every outfit I wear. It's my go-to-shoesies!

I, too am a sucker for lace-y and dainty stuffs. It makes everything so feminine and hides my boyish facade in a way. (Hahaha!)

Ethnicity

Every time I wear neon colored ensemble or tribal patterned clothing and such my brother never fails me to call "ethnic". Neon colors and tribal prints always emphasize my dark-colored skin and this accounts for the title of my post "Ethnicity".

I really don't mind being called "ethnic" or what. It just really shows my true colors and what human race I belong in! #LoudAndProud.

Obviously, my #OOTD screams ethnicity! Look at my tribal shorts plus my neon colored sleeveless, bra, and shades. Plus the cloth of my snapback is native. Very ethnic! ;)

Forgive me for the peek-a-boo details of my bra I just can't help the emission of the scorching sun nowadays. Getting hot as ever!

What I'm Wearing: Top - Forever 21 | Bra - La Senza | Shorts - InVogue |

Belt - Forever 21| Snapback - Oxygen | Sunnies - Aldo | Sandals - Steve Madden |

The Maxi

It's been a month since I last posted. I'm sorry for leaving you all hangin'. I've been caught up with the whirlwind of schoolworks & popdance practices and then prelim exam came up so soon. So many things to blog but so much little time!

P.S. Did you miss me? *Teehee*

Hi my lovely readers I'm back! :)

You rarely see me wearing maxi's because I'm not really blessed in the "height" department. *LOL* Usually when I wore long skirts it makes me look baggy and I'd appear much shorter that my actual height. But last #WashWednesday I made an exception! ;)

I accented my white & gray combo maxi and tee with shades of brown accessories and a hint of green & teal arm candies.

I was too tired to dress up last Wednesday. I was sleep-deprived and mentally abused credits to the #PrelimExams! So I just opted for the basics and chose the basic colors to complete my look!
