Black and Gray

blog January 27, 2012

top: random II skirt: Forever 21 II blazer: Terranova II Shoes: lace-up booties, Australian

MONOCHROME. I love wearing black and gray. i love classic, and i think that you could never go wrong with black. I have lots of neutral colored pieces in my wardrobe, but my goal this year is to buy more colored pieces too. tangerine is the in color this 2012, and color blocking will still be seen this year too. Tried pairing this outfit with my patent pumps as well. hehe.

In other news: after much persuasion, I finally tried on a bright red lipstick color, and I so love it! :) I have a red colored lipstick, but most of my lippies are nude colors. I'm saving up for the Russian Red MAC lipstick that I want. :) hehe. It's going to go well with my monochrome outfits. :)
I love the color of my hair. Colored it myself and used Luster by Splash. Try it to get the hair color you want without shelling out too much. :)

Its Friday again! Enjoy your weekend loves!

Style Inspiration : Kate Middleton

blog January 19, 2012

The current style inspiration. :) Here are some of her looks that I love. :)

CLASSIC SOPHISTICATION. I personally love the Duchess' style. Its young, and she always looks so elegant and sophisticated, perfect for a royal. :) I love how her looks are so simple and classic, but the way she carries herself is befitting for a princess. Saw some of her most fashionable looks online (see more of her looks -photocredits too!- here!), all I can say is that she always looks so well put together and regal. :)

Princess ang peg. haha. :) I just love simple and classic. You can never go wrong with it. :)
I think I need to buy a pair of nude pumps na. haha. :)

Who are your current style icons?

fashion January 16, 2012

GLAM. Almost everyone watches to see the Red Carpet arrival of the stars during Awards Night. It's that time again for the Golden Globes, and the stars have come out for a night of celebrating the film industry in their most fabulous and stylish garb. :) Here are my favorite looks from the Red Carpet.

Angelina Jolie. Love how her dress fits her perfectly. and her shoes! love!

Diane Lane in a shimmery number.

Love Reese Witherspoon's fab red gown.

Heidi Klum. Her turquoise neckpiece accents her gown perfectly.

Mila Kunis in a black gown.

Nicole Ritchie. Love this sparkly gown. Simple but still stands out.

Sofia Vergara.

Zooey Deschanel in a gorgeous black gown.

Julianne Moore. Black is always a good choice. Love the cut of this gown, and how

glam she looks!

I'll definitely be watching out for the replays of the Golden Globes. What were your favorite looks? I just loved the classic gowns that exuded sophistication. :)

Printed.

blog January 10, 2012

skirt and top : random II black patent pumps

NATURALLY CHIC PRINTS. I love wearing skirts, I feel more comfortable in skirts. In keeping with 2012's trends, (bold prints are so in this year! :) I wore my new zebra printed bandage skirt today with a plain top. It's fun to mix prints, but it's also good to wear plains with with it too. I think it adds more emphasis on the print. And a plain top means more freedom to accessorize! :) I've been browsing the fashion sites and blogs for this year's trends, some more trends to look out for : lots of tangerine and orange (colors of the year!) , pastel shades (sweet and sophisticated), metallic basic (anything shimmery and metallic instantly turns out to be a party-worthy piece!), and color blocking is still in this year! (a tip that I read : stick to three colors to avoid the rainbow brite look. hehe)

So excited to try out the trends this year! How about getting more metallic stuff into my wardrobe? :) I'm getting a lot of inspiration from blog surfing (love chriselleinc.com's blog! check it out too!), meaning more outfit ideas! :)

It's day 9, so far so good. :) I'm maintaining a positive attitude, I know there's so much in store this year. Let's do this! :)

Dress: Forever 21 II Black Patent Pumps

UP NORTH. We had our company Christmas party at Baguio this year. Was kind of a vacation for us too, taking a break from the busy-ness of the office. I have fond memories of Baguio, we would celebrate Christmas with other family friends up north, it was always super fun! Although we're all grown up now, we're still close friends. :) So it's always nice to visit Baguio once in a while, to enjoy just being away from the city, and the climate too! First up was the Market/Bazaar along Session Road. Half of the lane was closed for the midnight market : shopping galore! :) We had a red carpet theme for the party, so everyone dressed up for dinner. The trip was super fun, specially when you're with the craziest people. haha. Enjoyed the trip!

Still can't believe that the holidays are over, and everyone is back to work. haha. Still have a bit of a hangover from all the festivities, but I have a pretty good feeling about 2012. I think (and declare!) that it's going to be a great year! (the best ever!) May all our dreams and goals become a reality this year, i know we can do this because nothing is impossible with God! So exciting! :)

Thanks to everyone who supported and read my blog. :) (special shoutout to my best blogger buddies jen and kai! and all my blogger friends and readers too! :) It's been a great year and super excited to see what 2012 has in store for me!

Love love,
