Four Things

It's been a while folks. I've been a lazy bug for the past couple of weeks and there's no excuse to that. How are you? As for me, there are only four things I've been doing a lot lately. Watching, sleeping, watching, sleeping, haha. Well I still go to work 6 days a week, but those two things really does the trick for me. 

I've been watching a lot of TV series lately. Finished Season 1 of Bates Motel and Hannibal and now I'm currently on Season 3 of Game of Thrones and also on the last few episodes of Breaking Bad's Season finale. These TV series are purely awesome, the pleasure I get after watching every episode is just enough to satisfy me. I also watch movie every night with my little brother. Thank you IMDB.com for the ever reliable movie ratings and recommendations. 

And for the sleeping thing, I don't really get tired from work but it's just that am a naturally born sleepy head. I love sleeping, it's like the relationship between me and food, hahaha. They say why spend your time sleeping a lot when that's the only thing you'll do when you're already on your grave, but I say "yeah whatever"! 

Wearing: Dress: From my Bff's thrift shop, Platforms: c/o Cousin Dahlia

Excuse me for the dry hair, do not worry, I chopped it off already.




BTW- How do you find my dress? Am currently drawn to vintage florals lately :-D

Thrifty Advice

 If you’re a reliable reader/visitor of this blog am pretty sure you know that I love thrift shops, that almost half or more than half of my clothes came from thrift shops. Well the reason behind that is, the stuffs in there are all cheap compared to the designer brands and I don’t believe that fashion is all about expensive brands. It’s about possessing some sense of style.

Most thrifters go for newly arrived items but as for me, I don’t even dare to visit the shops when I know that the items are newly arrived merely because the price is at its peak. Yeah I know, now I sound so cheap hahaha. Thrift is the quality of using money and other resources carefully and not wastefully, so why buy thrift items in costly amount? You are losing the essence there my friend; why not wait for those items to be on sale? Haha just a thrifty advice. But if you have an ample amount of money, which I do not have as of the moment, do not listen to my advice J

One last thing, this top is one of the cheapest so far, got it on the "tatlo bente" racks hahahaha how cheap is that? I mean how cool is that? :)

Combolicious

This is my uniform, you can always see me wearing top+shorts+flats  and my Mom knows it a lot. But when I wore this OOTD some time last week she said to me that this is the perfect combo so far, she doesn't like it actually when I do color blocking but this one is an exception, she even said that "yan lang ang nagustuhan ko na pinag partner mo" I don't know if it's something to be glad about, I mean eto lang talaga? seryoso? hindi naman siguro di ba? haha


Aside from mom complimenting this outfit, this hasn't been a good week for me, plus it's raining everyday so the weather makes my mood even gloomier. Hopefully positive vibes will dominate negative ones this coming week. (*Fingers Crossed with Eyes closed* )

Blue Me Away

What's your favorite color? As for me I've been collecting turquoise lately. Before I don't seem to like the color blue because usually that color represents masculinity. But now blue has evolved, it has evolved so much that am starting to like every shades of it! Like the outfit am wearing on this outfit post, I just love the floral prints and it's color.




please excuse for the lukot lukot skirt, I moved a lot before taking these shots, that's why :)

Am a Thrift :)

Closet lately according to thrift shop:


So here are the stuffs I got two weeks ago when I went for a quick visit at the thrift shop, all items are super sale that's why I haven't thought of finding this cutie patootie tops. Lucky me, I know :D

First one is this cropped floral top. It has the right amount of sleeves, and oh I love the color :)

Second is this sleeveless floral top, what I love about this is its super flowy, light weight and somewhat vintage.
Third one is this cropped ethnic top, maybe if I wore this top to GMA tapings, they would allow me because the print is super ethnic. haha katulad ng cast sa Indio :)

Fourth but not the least is this acid wash beaded top, it's super girly I know :)

PS. Which do you like? And how was you're latest thrift adventure? Mine was awesome, hopefully next time I'll be able to find some bottoms naman :)

Backpackers

Ola dora! hahaha, am thinking how to start this post, but I can't think of anything except from that famous line from "Dora the Explorer". Well am pretty sure you get why we are somewhat related today. Been searching for a perfect backpack for quiet some time now and I couldn't be any happier when I got this bag from a thriftshop. It's lightweight, it's cute, it's floral and the straps are leather! How amazing is that? #OnlyInTheThriftShop :D



PS. How was your week? Mine was awesome because I got to spend some time with the main man, but then there's still a lot of things to settle. Anyway there's always good in everyday so #KeepCalmAndCarryOn :D

Denim Dress

So how is it going dolls? Mine was a bit of a whirlwind but let's not talk about that today. Been seeing a lot of denim stuffs lately and I can't help myself not to get envious on every pieces I see. If I was not mistaken I haven't visited thrift shops for almost a month and geez it was hard you know, like you think of every piece you might have purchased if only you took the time to visit the shop. But the long wait is over! Two weeks ago I got this denim dress together with 3 tops, one backpack and one flats! Yeeyy, now am a happy puppy :D


I love every details of this dress :D

PS. How about you? What's your latest ukay find? :D

All that Glitters are not Gold

"All that glitters are not gold, some might be mere sequins"

Am the happiest finding this sequined top! I believe a sequined top/dress is one of the must haves in every girls closet. We all know how to wear sequins at night and wearing it at day time can be really tricky so I opted to keep it simple for me not to go overboard. On this outfit I just paired it with black denim pants and platforms to give emphasis on it. I can also see myself wearing this top with a boyfriend jacket and denim shorts some other time:D

I just hope I gave justice to this outfit and did not mukang magicians assistant hahaha

Be Vibrant

"You're still young. Don't make yourself miserable by thinking about problems. Instead, always think that in every problem, there's a solution and everything will be okay. Do what you think is right. Take risks, try new things and laugh and live as if there's no tomorrow, for the next years of your life you have no choice but to be more responsible. So enjoy while you're still young and be vibrant." :D



Wearing: Top: Thrift, Wedges: from Macau


am in love with the lace detail :D



Someone wants to say Hi! Meet my cutie photo bomber pamangkin Deoff :D

Some Sort of a Denim

This is some sort of a denim dress, well not literally denim but the color and the texture is somewhat denim. Okay enough with that word. 

Isn't it great when you find something awesome the least you're expecting it?  Am taking about this dress, i love it because aside from it's super cheap, it has a cute collar detail plus the color is somewhat perfect :D

Fly me Away

About a week ago, these red platforms finally flown into my shoe rack and I can’t be any happier. When I first saw these platforms I knew right then that we meant to be! But I didn't purchase it right away because I have already bought another pair. (cost cutting, haha)

It took me two weeks to go back at the thrift shop because of the tight schedule and from the moment I stepped inside I immediately went to look for it. And I was right, we were really meant to be. She was just right there, same spot, waiting for me to bring her home. :D



So what do you think? Isn’t she gorgeous? Bad ass baby :D

Shoe Thrift

Last week I got to visit one of my go-to thrift shops, and to my surprise I saw all these pretty awesome shoes and platforms. So why don't you take a look and you'll know what I mean. :D







They all look gorgeous right? so here's the trick, guess what shoe I purchased among all of those! I only got a pair because am beginning to be more sensible when it comes to thrifting! :D
