Grown up Christmas

-


Hola! December has arrived and we all know what that means...it is PARTY TIME!! And I just had the chance to take a break from reading last Sunday when my mom brought me to the Christmas party of the networking company she is part of. So with such short notice, I have not prepared a good outfit fit for the occasion and so I scrambled my closet to find a Christmas-y ensemble. 




Max GXL party was held at the BIG Hotel, a new building just near Parkmall. The hotel was quite impressive because they were able to make the place look spacious despite being located in the heart of the city. they even managed to create a small veranda with a view on the second floor. And the food? Really delicious. I mean, I do not know about you but when you are hungry and you have not eaten for a long time (talk about diet), the sight of a lechon, lasagna, chicken shepherd pie and everything on the table is like a feast already. I had two rounds though (which explains why I look bloated in photos) haha!





To share with you more about the essence of the party, I would like to point out the importance of investment and business. Networking may seem a bad thing for most people today, but if you network in the right way it can be both beneficial to you and your client. I chose to attend this party because  I want to be inspired,  I want to change my life and yes I admit,  I want to be rich. This event made me reflect on myself that if I stay in my comfort zone then the results will be the same: you are always on the safe side. But if you take chances, if you put yourself out there and allow yourself to make mistakes, to fail and to be a beginner at everything, change is going to happen. 





This is for the first grown up Christmas I have experienced ever since basic education ended. It gives you the prologue of the adult world-- and it is not easy.

But, off the topic, I just want to compliment the #Revlon lipstick I wore that night which did not wear off. I ate and I drank a lot but the color is still there..hmmm switching brands now, I guess? hahaha
and kudos to my YSL inspired heels..I lurv you shooessiess ♥

 Day three of my Manila trip and the highlight as well. Saturday was the day of the Max International Anniversary party at SMX Convention Center beside MOA. So since it was a business/party I chose to wear something smart casual. What I wore was a black romper and a draped vest. When I bought that black romper, I thought if you wear it, it would be uncomfortable and hot and surprisingly it wasn't. It was super comfy because its material is made of cotton plus it blended well with the draped vest that is super light as well. But then the lightness of the clothing paid off when I entered SMX since the aircon was in full blast, and yea, I felt really cold inside. Interlude: I also dropped by the Penshoppe Fashion Week too! Hahaha! Not really, the hall where our party was held was just beside the hall where the Penshoppe event was. So there were pretty girls and boys all around the center and man, they were tall (read: 6 feet and above). The legs are to die for and the body

Friday Night

Friday Night by chichonheels featuring a peter pan blouse Black and Gold. These two colors shine bright on a friday night out, don't you think? If you wanna go clubbing with your friends, then this one fits perfectly. It's chic and it's comfy. The Gold-colored jeans really intensifies the whole outfit, but the chiffon peter-pan collared top doesn't do any less also. And adding the Louboutin's spikey pumps, you just nailed down the outfit. To top it off just add some goldish and blackish accessories and of course a simple tote bag that would make you look like a new-yorker walking around 5th avenue. Don't forget the make up also, make it light on the eyes and add a dash of red lipstick for color. All I know is that one day, I'm gonna be in this outfit. That's it. No fussin. Love it or not. :)

I am a School Girl

Andy from stylescrapbook.com Emma Roberts Camille Co from itscamilleco.com Kryz Uy from kryzuy.com Summer days are almost over, so I'm getting ready for my academic outfits. I promised myself to change my fashion for this coming school year. Well, I'm changing for a number of reasons: one is because I don't wanna be an attraction in our campus, second is I don't wanna give an impression to people that makes them feel intimidated and third is because I wanna try a laid-back chic fashion for the whole of first semester. As much as I want to bring out the stylist in me, I have to hold back my creative outfits because it's not fit for school. The only remedy I have is to innovate my fashion but still with a touch of vintage (which has always been a part of my daily outfit). This time I opted for much simpler ones aside from my lazy days outfits that consist a simple shirt, jeans and a flat shoes or a my pair of vans. Like the Androgyny looks,
