Style Files: Karla Deras

"I think if people just learned to embrace their own individuality, we wouldn't judge one another." -Karla Deras, Karla's Closet

Okay, so this is the first of its kind here on the blog where I devote a portion of it to my fave bloggers/style stars. First up in this segment called "Style Files" is my fave style blogger, Karla Deras of Karla's Closet. I'm perfectly aware that almost all fashion bloggers know Karla (unless you've been living under a rock) but she isn't well-known and looked up to by many for nothing. I have to say that aside from my mom, Karla Deras would have to be my style icon. Her style is fearless, sometimes androgynous and always classy. I love that she embraces femininity by wearing clothes that hug and accentuate the female body and that she is no moviestar/celebrity (just an ordinary girl who happens to have a blog and a lot of followers haha) but she dresses-up like one! It's like she's starring in her own movie that is her life. But I guess what I love the most about her style is that she isn't afraid to dress-up even if she's just off to get coffee at Starbucks in a tutu and sky-high heels. Truly, she is a celebrity in her own right.
:)














Karla and her blog inspired me to come up with my own blog after reading hers (plus I was looking for a way to document my style/sartorial choices then) so I guess this is paying homage to her. Haha! I had such a hard time choosing which photos to put here so go check out Karla's blog yourself if you haven't yet! :)

Grass Is Much Greener On The Other Side

(breton top-Tomato | culottes-Shop Capricious | satchel-Parisian | leopard turban-Flatterbuy | brogues-customized)like ink painting...
reminds me of a setting in a Jane Austen novel...
I was urging them to dance ballet with me. Well, I had fun doing it on my own. Hahaha!
Earlier today, I met up with my high school friends for a much-needed bonding sesh with them in UP. Though the weather was cloudy and rainy, it didn't stop us from having a grand time and a good laugh. The damp grass crunching beneath our feet, the rhythmic thudding of rain on the pavements, the gray cloudy sky and the chilly breeze were all very calming and soothing. Perfect for chasing our school-related anxieties (well for me anyway since classes have resumed for me already) away.

Ahh, I wish my uni had more green patches of grass! Clearly, the grass is much greener on the other side...literally. Haha!
