CAREFREE


Whew! 5th block exams are finally overrrrrrr!!!!!!! It was the most exhausting so far in my med life. At last, I'm back in the arms of my fashion, my blog, and my free time. I have at least a month to relax, sleep, and just be carefree! 

Just like today's post, though at sight the outfit doesn't scream carefree - kinda looks like the opposite actually - with its dark palette and constricted feels, but really I feel as free as bird in this ensemble! The dress was slim but loose enough to allow me to breathe, the flats are the best so I wouldn't worry about having to balance on skytower heels, and the hair is braided to the side so I would stop fixing my hair in place every now and then. This is one of the outfits, I can say, would be the comfiest I've been. 

But of course, we are not going out of the house without adding a few trinkets. Well actually, I just had one - this beautiful necklace my friend, Sharlyn Guvean, gave me!!! But it was all that I needed. I love how playful its is with all its metal fringe and the design itself is extravagant but very light on the neck. It isn't as heavy as it looks. It made me look like I did more effort on the outfit than I actually did. 

So happy to write again and to edit photos and to publish another post. Oh how I've missed! Nevertheless, I'm happy to be in a place where I can pursue my life-long dream. In one month though, I'm back to the aroma of caffeine and to the kisses of sleepless nights. Hahaha!

WAIT TILL I TURN AROUND

My first nephew celebrated his christening day last week, July 29, 2012! It was super duper fun reuniting with our cousins again! Always feels good to bond and catch up with the family. 

The party was conformed to Turquoise Blue and Apple Green - the decorations, centerpieces, table cloths, and especially the dessert table which was the highlight of the party, aside from the baby boy, Mikel, of course! :)

  

 

 

 

   





Talk about sugar rush!We even got to take home macaroons, still within the color scheme! What is strict! 
But since it was a christening event, traditionally, people wore white, so here I am, trying to be traditional, being the girl in white. Haha! 




This bag is vintage from Hong Kong, it has been with my mom ever since. But after so many years, it still looks stunning with all the details and the GOLD!  








Don't you just love surprises? 

I love how this white dress looks conservative from the front but then when you turn around tadaaaa! Clothes that have unique cuts at the back are my favorites because they're subtly sexy and they don't expose much of the body. So you can show off some skin but still look classy and smartly dressed. :)

LIKE A BOSS

I feel like the "ruthless and cynical" Miranda Priestly from The Devil Wears Prada in this black dress. I wonder how life is to boss around your subordinates in a way that abuses them emotionally and psychologically... 

That would be awesome. 
Haha! Kidding. But hey, just so you know, I'm sweet and bubbly, and you'll love me as a friend. :) 
(Yes, I declare it! Ha!)

Anyway, going back to the outfit, bottom line is: I feel like a boss in my dress!



  
I really like the style of this dress: I love how the collar stands, I love that it looks like a blouse because of the presence of the buttons from the collar to the hemline, I love the sheer effect at the chest (which cannot be seen much in the photos) adding a bit of androgyny, and of course, I love the asymmetrical cut of which gives it the edge and the oomph!
Hey, this could be the women's version of a tux, don't you think? ;)




We took the photos in the 'almost-empty' parking lot of my favoooritteee mall! :)


And here is my awesome photographer!!! Tadaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
My sister, Tricia! :)
