Cute-sy Patutsey

I love wearing dresses! This one in particular. Its vertical stripes help in improving my height issues. Hahaha!!! Plus, wearing 3-inch heels helps as well. :)

Girly girl dress by Springfield, Knotted belt from an alteration store in BF Homes that sells clothes

Charles and Keith shoes

Necklace from Mama's collection

Chunky ring, of course!

Rugged Friday

Excuse the blurry first photo, as my photographer is still getting the hang of things.

Here's my attempt at being a rockstar.

Pants by Topshop, Top from Copper

Shoes from Charles and Keith


Every women should have a slim black belt. It adds an 'umph' to any outfit.
I'm off to work!

Attack of the 50-foot Woman

Well, obviously, I am not 50-feet tall, but you get the picture. For someone barely making it to the 5-feet mark, this ensemble is one of my favorites because it makes me look taller.

And it makes heads turn too! And by that I mean other ladies, who are probably thinking, "Where did she get those pants! I want one!".

The flare of the pants is just SO fabulous. It's just the right length (actually had these cut a bit), plus it's so easy breezy on the skin. :) I love its light fabric.

Pants from Copper. Shoes from Pedro Woman (Yes, the same one from my previous post.)

Beautiful shade of blue too! Thanks to Topshop Petite. Silver studs are mine. Put my hair in a bun for added drama (and class).

Love this necklace that I bought from a stall in BF Ruins (again!)

I always have to wear my Charriol bracelet because it's my commitment band with Mac (who has one too). H&M pink-gold bracelets set was a gift from my friend, Borillo.

And of course, my chunky ring!

Rawr!

From The Closet 1

Here's my take on the whole "making the fru-fru skirt look casual" thing.

 It's also the debut of our helper, Arlene, as my photographer. Hahaha!

Mango basic blue polo shirt, my white fru fru skirt from People are People, pearl necklace from Mama (I braided my own hair, FYI)

Marriot, my perfect 'little' dog

Shoes by Pedro Woman (bought these babies from Singapore)

I love my bracelets!

And no wardrobe of mine is complete without a chunky ring. Also loving my orange nail polish courtesy of "Get Polished" in BF Homes, Paranaque.

Belt Bags in a Non-Construction Site

I think I haven't mentioned that I own an events management company (www.brainbeamevents.com). During event implementations, I need to bring so many small items like my cellphones, pentel pens/pens/highlighters, a notepad, shades, alco-gel, cash and my credit cards. Bringing a mailman's bag is not practical. Too bulky and such a hassle. Same with a shoulder bag.

And so... meet my trusty BELT BAG. I bought one from Lacoste some six years ago. That's what I love about this brand. Its quality is unquestionable. It has a mesh back portion for your change, and an inside big enough to fit all of the items that I mentioned.

I bring it not just to my events, but to my travels. You should get one too! Frees both your hands for shopping! :)

Taken at the Palawan Underground River. Every woman should also have a sundress, paired with a chunky necklace (again). But this is a different post altogether. :)

My AE's (Account Executive) Wedding

I have three words for you: WIDE. LEG. PANTS.

It makes a petite girl like me look taller and slimmer. Last Saturday (21 January 2012), I attended the wedding of Don (my AE) and Lea. Couldn't find a dress that I felt like wearing so I decided to go for my trusty pair of 'fancy pants'. What do you think? :)

Wide leg pants and top are from the COPPER store in BF Ruins. My super fabulous chunky necklace is from the stall of Abby Jocson from the last St. James Bazaar (http://www.abbyjocson.com/). Hair and Make up by Lee Figueroa (which is more or less my look on my wedding day).
The 'surprise' back view of the blouse
My Abby Jocson necklace up close. Chunky necklaces -- my forever statement piece. Will post more of my other chunky necklaces soon! When wearing one, no need to have huge earrings. That's overdoing it.
MAC and MAY (My fiance and I)
I love how 'flowy' my pink pants look in this photo. Here's the couple with my team.
Congratulations, DON & LEA!

High School Girl

I love the new series, "New Girl". Zooey is adorkable indeed.

Some two weekends ago, the fiance and I went to Tagaytay, and I decided to channel my inner Zooey by wearing this pair of geeky glasses. Used the glasses in an event I hosted last year. And to complete my "high school" look, check out what I wore. Saw this ensemble featuring Dakota Fanning, who wore this 'look' to school.
White top from Zara, Black spaghetti strap top from ages ako, Jeans from Dorothy Perkins, Denim wedge open-toed shoes from a stall in Shell along NLEX (Php350.00) and my favorite mailman's bag from Topshop

Can I still pull off the "high school student" look? :)
