I went crazy with prints today! If only I had a crazy blazer to go with my outfit. Scored these pants for P130.00 (about 3 dollars) at a thrift store. Oh how I love the ukay-ukay!!!

Arm party!! I got this hardware friendship “Farrel” bracelet from Gold Dot, they’re pretty heavy but totally worth it. My pyramid wrap around cuff is from Shop Red Dot, better get one now if you like it because I heard stocks are running low Plus check out this aztec bangle while you’re at it! White is already sold out but they still have it in red and black

Rainy days mean more chances for layering!

I found this old top thingy I got from Red Dot years ago. I thought of turning it into some sort of parka thing for rainy days. Haha. Sorry it sounds so dumb but I’m really just not sure what to call it. LOL. It’s made up of the same fabric they use for parkas but without the padding and the weight.

These clogs go with everything I own!! They’re so light weight too. Still going gaga over them. It’s also available in nude, get yours at http://www.shopreddot.ph

i want to take you far, from the cynics in this town

I was so stoked to work for the whole Polka Dot campaign, not only as a brand ambassador but also behind the scenes! I still can’t believe we pulled it off! Haha!! So happy I modeled with two of my best friends. Here are some photos from the First Dibs event.

Thank you so much to everyone who came!!

with photographer Glenn Tumaneng

Ivon and I didn’t have big parties when we turned 18. We thought we were too cool to have a debut. We were pretty much anti-debut. Haha!! But this night made us feel like debutantes or sweet 16′ers. I had so much fun!!

Here’s the video for Polka Dot’s first collection, enjoy

Selected journalists, student journalists and bloggers were gathered to meet with undersecretary Manolo Quezon. I was actually skeptical about going since my blog is practically a style diary of some sorts and nothing serious, but usec. Quezon welcomed everyone and really wanted to teach us how new media can help promote as well as preserve the Ilocano culture and traditions as modernization and urbanization arise.
