Patchwork

I was practically rummaging some clothes in my closet when I spotted a necklace I got from my mother. I have worn this once but I failed at featuring this on my blog. When I wore that necklace to school, my friends were buzzing about how elegant the necklace is. Well, I can't blame them. That has to be one of my most treasured accessories ever! That's why I put this item on a safe place to maintain its quality.

Well after two hours of searching for a dress, I finally found my Grandmother's gift to me. I have never worn this to school so basically, it is my dress' first time to be exposed. Haha. The dress is too short and shows a lot of skin so I wore a skirt underneath. I picked a color which can hideously blend with the color of my dress which is cream. Or dirty white? Whatever. Hehe.

And here's the necklace that I've been talking about! This is so lovely, don't you think?

I love the cuff I got from Tomato. Well, you could order accessories for as low as PhP400 ($9) on their site. And I wore also my favorite watch from Timex.

Zoom into the details of the dress.

Anything But Ordinary

Sharing with you these photos my sister shot last week. I love how I ended up dressing like this kind of outfit. It's not something you would mix and match on the very first sight of these items on your closet. But sometimes you have to step out of your comfort zone. Stop being a playing safe at times (sounds like I'm pointing into something). It's safe to say if you could try different things. When you try unique ones, you'll be remembered for it.

My bottoms here isn't actually a skirt. It's a tube dress I borrowed from my classmate. I would never intend to wear a tube dress here and anywhere. It's not my typical outfit. This dress has ribbons in it so I used them to tie it up and secure it with a knot on the side. I don't know but I just love how I did it. I've had six attempts on styling it and I'm proud of how it became in the end.

I love how flowy the skirt is. I would really buy an a-line skirt one of these days.

I told my sister to capture me while I'm looking at the time but she clicked the shutter right away and I was like "Why didn't you wait for my signal?!" Hahaha.

A larger view of the prints of my skirt. :)

Sunday Outfit

Thought you would want to know what I wear usually on Sunday Mass. Since this moment calls for decent, clean and (okay) appropriate outfits, I opted for liquid leggings and an oversize shirt with my favorite detail on it- cutout on each side of the arm. I've been engaging myself with items with a cut on the sides of the arm to reveal a little bit of my upper arm. I felt really comfortable with it though I have to deal with lack of proper ventilation inside the Church. That's why I have to ensure myself to bring along with me a fan or something that could cool me off.

Dress codes are a must especially for Roman Catholics. You would be exile if you wear something that's undecent and very seductive clothes. Never (and if I say never, it means NEVER EVER EVER!) wear something that shows off more flesh (e.g. mini skirt and shorts, sleeveless top, tubes). If you decide to wear sleeveless top, make sure it won't reveal a cleavage (the term!). Well you could pair it with a cardigan and balance your outfits well. The key here is applying your knowledge in Fashion when mishaps arrive on the way. :)
