Going Gaga for Gaga

Because of the weather, I havent really had time to dress up and post new outfit pictures so here I am posting the most random things I could possibly find.

For one, Lady Gaga's bow styled hair is just too interesting to pass. I was browsing through Hayley's blog (Hayley of http://fashionhayleyhome.blogspot.com) and I stumbled on a video that she posted from Youtube. Its a ribbon hair tutorial which teaches how to do your hair Lady Gaga style. I just got fond of it cause it was so cool how the girl put everything together and that the outcome was so clean and polished exactly just like Lady Gaga's! Just watching the video alone can definitely entertain.

I'll try to post some more random online finds if I can. I am literally on house arrest (well I'm sure a lot are..) because of the storm and I havent been able to go out in the longest time. I guess its all for our safety anyway in the end. Please help continue praying for the Philippines especially those who were affected by Ondoy and those who are currently being affected by the super typhoon, Pepeng.

Today was a good day. I first headed to AAV to do my share of community service for those who were severely affected by the typhoon. I only intended to go help at Woodrose but they were almost done when I arrived so I decided to help at St. James instead.

Though I was only able to stay until 2, I think that I was still able to do do a fair share of all the work that needed to be done unlike some of those other people who were just obviously there for the wrong intentions, no offence. Thank goodness though that when we arrived at St. James there werent much people yet so we were all really able to contribute something since every person's help counted. It was a major work out for our arms though but hell it was fun!

Afterwards, I headed to my grandma's house because it was our bonding time with her. Us three cousins plus her. It was nice spending time with her again because its seriously been so long! Even though we live right beside each other, my sister and I barely get to visit her so its good that we had today to catch up. We were just there in the TV room and we watched TV while having pizza. I had four slices of yellow cab. I think its because I only had an orange for breakfast and I exhausted all my energy at Alabang. Our granny's birthday is also coming up soo I'm excited for that! I'm thinking SURPRISE!

Anyway thats all. For now, I will leave all of you with some interesting fashion forward pieces.

First picture is Jeremy Scott's Flinstone inspired collection with his infamous angel wing sneakers in a bright rainbow color while the second and third pictures show origami heels of which I dont know the designer. I so so so LOVE them! I really get attracted to pieces like these which are loud and out of this world. Definitely one of a kind ;)

To Quiapo Or Not We Go!

So today we were going to go to Quiapo to buy some camera equipment for my sister. Once I heard Quiapo, this was the first outfit I thought of. Nothing screams vintage more than this. I thought that this outfit would really send off the vintage old style vibe that Quiapo gives which is why I wore it. Unfortunately, after dressing up, I was told that our trip was cancelled because of the floods. Instead, we just went to Town to do what else but shop.

My sister and I got our rewards and we had lunch at Pepper Lunch afterwards. It was basically one of those days when you have nothing else to do but go to the mall to eat and buy something then leave again. Really lazy day if you ask me.

But anyhoo, guess what I brought home today!!

NEW SHOOEEESS! I am finally able to get a hold of a pair of high-tops. They're amazing. I'm in love :) Now I have new dancing shoes. I cant be any happier. I cant wait to wear them out! I'm soo excited to start dancing in them. My sister on the other hand asked for a koosh ball for her reward. Yeah, she's a cheap thrill like that. Well, we all have our cheap thrill moments anyway just like how I get mine from thrifting.

What I wore: Thrifted padded star printed blue top, DIY'ed shorts, Stockings from Capezio, Shoes from CMG, Vest from Topshop, Bag from Mango.

Pink and Print

Today I finally decided to debut my denim print leggings. Love them! They give absolute comfort and style.

I wore them out to another outing with my family. We first had lunch in Kanin Club. At first we doubted we were going to be able to get seats since we've already been there twice and never got to eat there since it was always waiting list and my dad never wannted to wait. Fortunately, we arrived early enough to be the second on the wait list and so we decided to wait for it since the line wasnt so long.

Kanin Club was always full and so we really expected a lot from it. Though it serves native Filipino dishes, it was a unique restaurant since they managed to experiment with different tastes and come up with new exciting delicacies. Just say for example their CRISPY dinuguan and their turon with ube,beans, and macapuno. They were definitely different from your traditional Filipino food.

I had a vegetarian lumpia (first picture) which I really loved. It didnt even taste like lumpia at all! It had tofu in it and it kind of tasted like Pad thai because of the wansoi. My experience at Kanin Club was great and I would definitely come back for more.

After lunch, we headed to Cash and Carry and eventually, to Rockwell. I ended up splurging again once we got to Rockwell. Now I owe my mom 3k. I am seriously burying myself in debt! Unfortunately, we didnt have the time to go to the Artisan Bazaar (and I am sure I missed on a LOT!!) but I'm sure there will be more to come and so I am hoping that I'll be able to attend the rest instead.

Outfit post for today includes my sister who obviously shares the same love for leggings as me.

What she wore: Top and leggings both from Kids of Bayo, Shoes from Crocs.


What I wore: Shirt from Hot Topic, Thrifted pink vest, Denim print leggings from Topshop, Shoes from Payless Shoes, Bag from Louis Vuitton.
