Walkin' in My Shoes

Hey dolls! I am super sorry for not updating within the last 2 months! Reasons being I have been so busy with school work since 1. I am on my last term and 2. I am technically working on a thesis and other school work. I really do apologize again for neglecting my blog and other obligations(ang termmmm!) I have promised to blog or promote! I really hope you dolls understand. With that I won't promise to be constantly updating for the next 2 weeks, but I will try my best since its almost finals week. Cross my fingers that I do well! hehe

Lets skidaddle to the outfit post! Wanted to go for something a little bit more casual but add a sorta kinda indie vibe. Mainly I had Coachella in mind since it is coming up! I hope I achieved that.

What I Wore: Topman Lady GaGa sweatshirt, Bench DIY cut-offs, Forever 21 necklace, SM cap, Rolu boat shoes

Thanks again Rolu for another amazing pair of boat shoes! Definitely check out their website and order yourself a pair! I swear you will not regret it! BTW, to the ladies who have been wanting a pair,  I think they have designs available in you women's sizes! Check out this entry I wrote about Rolu back in January!

Pawn Shop Blues

Hey dolls/bellas! Here I go again with my apology for neglecting my blog. I've been sooo wrapped up with different events such as Katy Perry's Concert and a lot more! Come to think of it, these last few weeks I've been out almost every day! Anyways I'm back and this time I will try to blog much more often! Its a new year and I want this blog to grow even more! For this entry, since I haven't done an outfit post for some time, here I go! If you're wondering what up with the title, well I've been in love with Lana Del Rey's album! It is just pure genius. Think cigarettes, flowers and everything dainty when listening to her! Anyways onto the post!

This look shot was actually taken way back on Christmas day, I just failed to blog about it during the holidays! Anyways I wore this to my family reunion, I wanted to go for something much more casual and try out the whole 1 color look. Hopefully, I do not look like the "Blue Ranger."

What I Wore: Valera shirt, Bench chinos, SM belt, Rolu boat shoes, Buddha jade beads

Shout out to my brother Migz who took my outfit shots!

Thanks again to Rolu shoes!

Bloggers United Haul

RETAIL THERAPY. If theres one thing that can calm me down its that. Yesterday, Bloggers United 2 took place at Treston College. Now if you guys haven't heard of it, which I'm sure most of you have. Its basically a bazaar wherein bloggers and a few others have a bazaar to sell stuff(clothes, accessories, shoes, etc). Its that one chance where you'll be able to shop your favorite blogger's wardrobe. Yup you head that right their wardrobe! Anyways straight to the point, I WENT CRAZY. Shopped with The Little Big Spender(Inna) herself and our friend Daniel Ymbong. Sadly wasn't able to take photos of the event itself. :(

Purchases

Patricia Prieto's Booth

Zipper Necklace: This was the first item I bought, since I decided to go Patricia and Kryz's booth first! When Pat showed me her box of accessories that were on sale I immediately noticed and actually remembered this zipper necklace she wore to school once! Super fell in love with this piece and bought with no hesitation since its such a statement. 

Sunnies & Scarf: Aside from the zipper necklace I saw this beautiful scarf also inside the box of accessories, again I grabbed with no hesitation. Perfect accessory to attach to your bag! After checking the box of accessories, my eyes all of a sudden shifted to another box of accessories. This time in that box were rings, earrings and sunnies! Then upon looking I saw this round framed sunnies, then again I grabbed it and bought it from PATTTTT! 

The only thing better than regular skulls are PINK SKULLS.

This has definitely become my new favorite cardigan!

Minnie Muse x Forever 21 Cardigan: ABSOLUTELY MY MOST FAVORITE FIND DURING THIS BAZAAR. I just adore this exclusive collaboration of F21 and Disney. They put Minnie Mouse on fashion steroids and made her look fashionable. I remember seeing this cardigan last year, when I visited Forever 21. I was actually gonna ask Pat if she was gonna sell this cardigan, but of course I forgot. Finding this was actually coincidence, I was just making chikka/making jokes with Pat about how I'd buy a skirt from her and I won't fit etc. Then she suddenly told me to buy her Minnie Muse cardigan. She grabbed it from a pile of clothes then again and again with no hesitation I PURCHASED IT! Super happy with this, and I can see the abuse this cardigan is gonna go through! 

Studded Bucket Bag: I've always wanted a bucket bag, but I couldn't seem to find one that suited my style. I found this when I was checking out the pile of bags Pat had at the side of her booth. When buying this It was actually a competition bet. this and another studded bag, but I felt the studded bucket bag could be my everyday bag. PLUS you'll never guess how much I got this bag for! ;)

THANKS BESH SOOOO MUCH FOR HELPING ME PICK OUT THESE ITEMS AND ADDING ME TO YOUR GUESTLIST! SOOO HAPPY! <3 YOU!

Gelo Arucan's Booth

FINALLY!

Fox Tail: After shopping at Pat's booth, I remembered I NEEDED to buy a foxtail at Gelo Arucan's booth. How did I know he was selling fox tails? Well he made an entry previewing what he'll be selling at the blogger's bazaar. I was just sooo excited to make this purchase, since I've been wanting a fox tail after seeing it on Nasty Gal and lookbook.nu!

Mike Magallanes' Booth

From Minnie Mouse to Hello Kitty! 

D-Mop x Hello Kitty Sweatshirt: After buying my fox tail, I decided to pay Toxic Dico Boy aka Mike Magallanes' booth a visit. I also saw a preview of the clothes he was gonna be selling. As I was sorting through his rack of clothes, he was nice enough to show me some pieces I might be interested in. One of the pieces first showed me was this very very very intriguing Hello Kitty piece. 

Cape Top: After showing me the Hello Kitty sweatshirt, I asked if he had more capes then he showed me this divine cape looking top. 

Daryl Chang's Booth

Folded & Hung Oversized Top: Found this top when sorting through Daryl's rack of clothes. I actually didn't notice this till I actually looked through the rack again. When I saw it I immediately fell in love with the print and the size. I just love oversized shirts, and this one was a winner! Perfect for a lazy day, definitely pairing this up with denim shorts and black converse. 

Andre Chang's Booth

It took me a while to figure out how to wear this vest!

Studded X Back Vest: I was sooo excited to shop Andre's booth, since I've been following him on lookbook ever since! I just felt sooo bad since I saw sooo many nice jackets at his booth, but sadly some were too small. I didn't give up though, I just needed to buy a piece from Andre's booth! After minutes of looking and sorting I found this very interesting vest. 

Paul Jatayna's Booth

Heather Miss Grey Shirt: I think this was the last item I bought at the bazaar. Found this while making chikka with Paul and looking at the clothes he was selling. I actually wasn't gonna get this at first, I was suppose to get another top from him but for some reason and with the convincing of Inna that Heather Miss Grey shirt haunted me! I decided to change that top and get the HMG shirt instead! Another very interesting piece! One of my favorite finds from the bazaar too! 

Thats basically all of the stuff I got and came home with from the bazaar! I'm actually happier with my finds from this bazaar compared to the St. James Bazaar, plus everything fits perfectly! I was able to buy all the things I wanted without that shopping guilt! 

Congrats to everyone behing Bloggers United 2! Judging from all the pictures I've been seeing, the event was super successful! To the ones that weren't able to attend this shopping experience, hate to say it but you missed out! Can't wait for the next one!

bisou bisou,

I Currently Reside in Planet JEDWARD

If you guys follow me on twitter, I have been tweeting about halloween and getting my hair cut like the twins Jedward(John and Edward Grimes). If you guys have no idea who they are, well they were contestants on the X Factor UK. They're Irish identical twins/pop duo that have been quite the controversy back then. A lot of negative press about them being musicians, but screw negative press. I LOVE THEIR MUSIC, PERSONALITY & ESPECIALLY THEIR FASHION(YES THEY DRESS ALIKE TOO)! The past few days I've been getting inspiration from them, and now that Fashion Week is coming up I might be pulling a Jedward. sabeee. I've compiled some pictures/pegs since I just couldn't help myself and blog about them since they've become my new style icons. Plus I might go Jedward this Halloween. Watch out!

I always wondered how it feels like to have a twin. I really find it cute when they dress alike! Sorry but the Olsens are boring na... cheka lang. Haggard chic is not in na MK.

THE HAIRRRRRRRRRRR.

WARDROBE PEG. They are just effortlessly chic!

CREEPERS!!!

I LOVE THE OUTFIT ON THE LEFT! I still don't know how to tell them apart! I'm beginning to love folding the hem of my pants again! Grease lang ang peg!

EVEN THE SKINS CAST LOVES EM! THE Kaya Scodelario was the one who twitpic'd this! I know most of you Effy/Kaya fans trust her when it comes to taste! Oo, nag assume at declare ako! 

Girls and beckys one each! I wish I was blessed with nicer hair!

Printsssssss. Put anything on those twins they instantly rock it! Parang ako lang. sabeeeeeeeee.

HAGGARD CHIC! Sige na Mary-Kate Olsen ikaw pa rin ang peg! Their hairrr talaga! 

Popstars na, model pa! Them already!

They are just tooo fierce! Peg ko na toh! The American Uniform(jeans and t-shirts, though they're Irish) is always the way to go!

The "Quiff" I really wanna have a shoot, peg ang Jedward. Seems like sooo much fun! What I love about them tooo is how polished they look alllll the time.

To the boys, looking polished is ALWAYS plus points for girls. I know some of you may not agree with Jedward, but looking clean is just such a nice to thing to see!

Blazers and skinnies, my uniform for life! 

To conclude this PHOTO HEAVY entry, heres 3 photos of I found of the twins with different ways they styled their hair. I really am leaning towards to cutting my hair like theirs. It just seems to edgy and I need to try something new with my hair. 

Whatchu think???

I'm actually gonna get my hair cut this Wed, so I really have to decide! I'll definitely sport my new do this fashion week, so I just can't wait for Wed! 

One of my favorite songs from them! I recommend you guys to check their albums out! I especially like their album Victory, mainly because its more upbeat and fasyonnnn!

I hope you guys got to see why I am soooo hooked to these twins. I just feel their style is soooo me. They go from neon colors to just a simple blazer and skinnies but with a hint of color. Like I said, they always look POLISHED. Which is one of the fashion rules I live by. I can definitely picture myself wearing clothes similar to theirs. Thats all for now!

To everyone attending Philippine Fashion Week, its that time of the year again!!! See you all there!

xx
