White Out

(white polo- Simone's Closet | white lace dress- Abbey's gift | boater hat & satchel- Trinkets Royale Manila | apricot heels- Manels)
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!

Wit Beyond Measure is Man's Greatest Treasure

Late post! Been busy with my midterm exams/stories that I wasn't able to blog about this right away. Sorry 'bout that. Anyway, after watching the last Harry Potter movie last July 15, I suddenly became nostalgic and started re-watching all the HP films and re-reading the books (parts 1, 2, 5 & 6). Hmm...Explains why it took me a long time to blog about this. Haha!
Decided to dress up as a Ravenclaw student 'coz it was the last film! So forgive me for this HP-themed post. Hihi.Wit beyond measure is man's greatest treasure.
I didn't have a tie so I just settled for my blue ribbon from Tomato.
Do you guys like my 9inches-mahogany-it's-really-a-chopstick-wand? Haha!
Ah...This outfit reminds me of my Diliman Prep high school uniform. :(
...and that's me with my mom...and the lampin that my sis lent me 'coz I didn't bring a hanky with me to the movies and I was practically bawling. No kidding.
This isn't even an exaggeration, but I was just like this when I watched the film. Hahaha! I started crying when I realized that I won't have to bug my mom into buying me the sequel to a HP book for the coming years, no more HP films to look forward to every year and while thinking about all these, I also couldn't help but marvel at it's beauty. I mean, the film and the book are two different media but together, they are one beautiful creation.
And because I don't wanna end this post with me being sappy. Poor Voldy. Haha!
