Lolita

For my two HS best buddies' birthday celeb, I wore an all white outfit with hints of pink and tan for an innocent and lolita-ish look. It was quite a feat to remain clean and pristine with this outfit considering that I commuted from my dorm in Taft all the way to the far far land of FARview, I mean Fairview while it was pouring. I remember thinking to myself while waiting for a FX at the kanto in Taft, "Great timing Jonessa. Wear white when you're gonna step on muddy puddles and get splashed with water". Hehe. But we rarely see each other anymore so everyone really made an effort to come despite the bad weather. So yeah, I had a wonderful time catching up with my high school chums and even I could tell that I was particularly hyper and cheery that day. Amazing how the right people can bring out all the positive traits and the best in you. :)

White Out

Wore this last week when I accompanied my mom to a party and I became her personal photographer and chaperone. I think this coming Saturday she's going to drag me with her to Tagaytay to attend a wedding. She's already hired me to design her gown and now I'll become her make-up artist/stylist/hairdresser/photog among others. Haha! But I'm not complaining. I love hanging out with her. She's my ultimate bestfriend.

So...on to the outfit then!

My peg for this was vintage resort-wear from idk...the 50's perhaps? It wasn't raining then so I opted for an all white outfit. Just like wearing an all-black attire, the key to this is to layer garments with different textures and break the monotony of the look by injecting a jolt of color. Well in this case, I didn't go for bold and loud colors and opted for subtle pink/rose-colored accessories instead. For my new sunnies, it's literally looking at the world through rose-colored glasses lang. Haha! Oh and I finally got to wear my new shoes from Manels! I'm so glad that my search for the perfect tan/apricot/nude shoes is finally over. When I saw this pair on the shelf I immediately imagined myself pairing it with a safari-inspired outfit! But as you can see, I wore it with a very girly outfit. Very versatile...yeah?

Enjoy the rest of the week!
