Dont Stop The Music

What I Wore: Forever 21 denim vest, Mango top, Salsa Trends harem pants, Adidas Originals rubbershoes.

Happy Easter everyone!! =) I wore this really out of the box outfit for Easter today. At first I was having second thoughts on the outfit since we were going to mass and it wasnt exactly "conservative" (with the loud prints and all..) but I thought, what the hell, its not like anyone should be giving a damn. And hey, I think the outfit really worked out!

The pants were a pair that I bought specifically for our dance concert last March. For one of the dances I was in, we were required to be in harem pants and it was just such a struggle for me to find one.. so when I found this, I immediately bought it even if it was 1k++ and I *knew I was never going to wear them again*. But here I am, sporting the look once again. Hope I get the most out of this piece though! It's really hard finding things to go well with extremely loud pieces sometimes.

Oh, and did you notice the purple nails?? So cute right!! I got them at Faceshop when I went on a make-up haul a few weeks ago. Love love the color! :)

Vigan!

Hullo everyone! I currently have summer class so its such a struggle for me to update but luckily I found the time to do so. Here are some pictures from our super fun Illocos fieldtrip last Feb! Its a two-part post so here's the first part :)

Started everything off with drinks with a few friends at Drew's. We were originally supposed to go have drinks with our fieldtrip group, but a lot ended up backing out so we were only 3 left and ended up just meeting other people and hanging with them there before we headed to the meeting area where we were to board the bus.

It was an 8-hour (?) trip from QC to Vigan and we had about 2-3 stops before we got to the place (which sucked because my sleep kept on being disturbed!)

We finally arrived in Vigan where we had breakfast. We were also allowed to roam around the town for an hour. We basically just did some sight-seeing and ofcourse, a lot of photo-ops. Hahaha!

We also went to Baluarte which is some sort of government mini-zoo. It was fun being able to play around with the animals and be able to touch them without any fee at all! Thanks by the way to Billie who tinkered with my camera which resulted to the beautiful pictures above haha! We had a lot more stops that day, including churches and museums but it came to a point that all I really wanted was rest and sleep so towards the end of the day I was found left all alone in the bus, sleeping, while everyone else hopped down to see the various attractions.

Girl About Town

What I Wore: Dorothy Perkins top, Zara jeans, Gifted scarf, Chanel bag, CMG Shoes.

This is what I wore to my little sister's recognition day. I wanted to wear something that screamed "ate", but not too old. It was also a perfect outfit since its summer and it matched the season somehow. I'm wearing the same jeans as my previous post which just proves my total love for them. My previous school is very conservative so I opted to wear jeans so I wont have to take the risk of suddenly not being allowed in. Went to lunch after and I finally bought RO load! Haha

Calatagan

Went on a trip to Calatagan back in January which I was never able to blog about because of my schedule but I figured since its already summer, then why not?

The beach at low tide. look how far we could walk!

The trip was a weekend fieldtrip for our Geography class. We were three classes under one prof that went to the fieldtrip. We just basically chilled and hung out. In the morning, we had beach games to start the morning off.

New found Geog1 friends! Can you believe none of these people were my classmates? Hahaha!



aandd at night, something ALL Geog fieldtrips arent complete without...


wild hahaha!

SUPER FUN FIELDTRIP!! I love those people to death! If you go to UP Diliman and are planning to take Geog1, take it under Ma'am Precious Ongoco. She has the best fieldtrips :) In our class, we had THREE --another one of which I will also be posting soon. Hee.

The Perfect Pair

You know how it is essential for every girl to have one pair of perfect go-to jeans in her wardrobe? Well, this is mine. I was never really a jeans person. I hated jeans cause they had that uncomfortable fit. It gets hot and to me it just served as a reminder of how fat I was (It would be such a struggle to put them on and I just remember how huge my thighs are =))) But after reading Lauren Conrad's book, STYLE, I realized that there IS a pair for me out there. She mentioned that we just have to look for that pair with the perfect fit that flatters us, and provides us with the comfort that we need. And so, I went on the hunt for this perfect pair that she was talking about.

What I Wore: Lee/Levis(?) Top, Zara jeans, H&M Blazer, Alice&Olivia for Payless heels, Chanel bag.

I found mine in Zara last December. And I tell you, it was like finding a gold mine. At first I wanted to wait for it to go on sale (since I absolutely hate it when I buy stuff from Zara/Mango because ALL their items go on sale when they do -_-), but even after the Christmas sale, they still werent on discount! (Apparently They were a new collection so even if it was out before the Christmas sale, they werent part of it :( ). I was so desperate because I really fell in love with them so I finally decided to get it on regular price. It was so worth it though, cause its extremely perfect and comfortable!!! I never knew jeans could provide that much comfort. They're semi-stretch so it was really easy to move in them. And despite being skinny jeans, they didnt give that weird tight, rough, textured feeling.. I guess because of the material. I just love them so much because I never knew that I would find jeans that would fit me well. I'd go to a lot of shops and the jeans are always either uncomfy or dont flatter my body (or just simply dont fit me at all :|) so when I found this, I just knew they had to be mine.

LC also said in her book that its hard to find the perfect pair so sometimes, when she finds one that she absolutely loves, she stacks on them just in case. And now I'm actually thinking of that, although I'm not sure if I should get the same pair. I was on another hunt today and I found a pair in Mango which was very similar to this, except in a lighter blue.

And can I just say, I SO miss wearing (and buying) heels!! I know its not practical for me to buy them anymore (since I commute in school and all..) so it really breaks my heart not being able to window shop for them. SIGH.

To Start Off The Summer...

What I Wore: Zara top, Topshop shorts, Coach bag, Topshop shoes.

Wore this today to start off the summer with my barkada. We played frisbee and football in the park during the afternoon and had the usual dinner at Bia's. We're in his house so often that we already made a Facebook location page so that we could tag ourselves whenever we're in his house HAHA. We bought ingredients for dinner at the nearby Rustan's and the boys cooked afterwards. It's funny, in our barkada, its the guys who cook instead of the girls. Our barkada consists mostly of guys so that explains it. We didnt help cook much tonight since for some reason, whenever everyones in the kitchen helping cook, it takes us FOUR hours just to finish cooking. Good decision letting the guys handle it alone. We finally ate in time.

Fun day! Cant wait to spend the summer!

SUMMER!!!!

What I Wore: The Ramp top, Forever 21 shorts, Chanel bag, Topshop sandals

AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH FINAAALLLYYY ITS SUMMER!!!! I'M SO HAPPY. Well, my summer's only two weeks since I have summer class starting Apr19 but oh well atleast I still have one even for just a short while!

Anyhoo I wore this outfit to my last day of exams. The shoes are reaaaaallyy loveelyy!! So comfortable too! I'm sure I'll be wearing them a lot this summer. Oh and, sorry if I keep repeating that bag.. its just that during the semester I only get to wear it during weekends (since I cant bring it while I commute to EVERYWHERE) so I use it as much as I can when I'm home. Hehe.

More blogposts soon! :)
