Balancing Act

I was in the mood for a little shoe shopping and here are a couple of my favorite finds.
If you're going to spend on shoes, it's best to find a pair that has a classic shape and silhouette. A sure investment that will last you through the years. Like this classic pair of YSL tributes. It's my first pair and I couldn't be happier. 
This Alexander Mcqueen pair has a bit more edge with a mix of different elements: snakeskin, laces, buckles and gold studs. It's more fashion-forward and can add a surprising touch to any outfit. It's a pair I'll throw on when I feel like having a little fun. 

Find a balance in everything, and let your shoes do the talking. BMS.

Clashing Prints

(Jhajing earrings/ring, Miss Sartorial detachable collar, H&M top, Chanel bag, vintage leggings, Marni heels)

When people wear detachable collars, it's usually paired with round neck tops- I choose to wear loose tanks, so that they can really stand out. For this look, I'm sure you've noticed that I wore clashing prints all over- this actually wasn't planned. I've had these leggings for years now and I've been dying to wear them with a Gucci-inspired sailor loose top (but I haven't found the perfect one yet) so I just worked with what I have in my closet and found this neon top that's perfect for our weather nowadays- striking hot. If you check the pictures again, you'll notice it's a bikini I'm actually wearing inside my tank. Yes, why not try mixing printed bikini tops with your everyday outfit? Give it a shot. BMS.

Life's A Jungle

It's always good to wear  a lot of subtle animal-inspired pieces altogether because it can turn a simple outfit into something fun. I actually love how color coordinated and well-themed my outfit is even if I only thought of it for 5 minutes because (as usual) I was running late for something. The gold metallic sweater matched well with the front part of my bag and shoes. And can I just add- I love how my shorts matched perfectly with the details of my bag and bib necklace- it was as if they were all made for each other. BMS.

Night Lights

 (Warehouse dress, vintage necklace, Stylebreak skirt, SM Accessories ring, High Style Fancy heels)

This look wouldn't have been complete without this black sheer skirt- it just made this look effortlessly beautiful. I think that's why sheer items are made- to make an outfit look extra chich. You can wear it during the day or at night and still look fab. I wore this dress that had beads/ sequins on the shoulder and just one piece of necklace that's so heavy but then again- fashion over comfort. I didn't wear much accessories- I opted to wear a few oversized pieces instead.

If you're wondering why I was so dressed up-- I was one of the speakers for a BBM event wherein I shared some of my BBM stories and favorite things about BBM together with Isabelle Daza and host Sam YG. It was a small event and I was happy to be part of it. 
And now they have an on going contest where you can win a blackberry bold 9900 and a blackberry curve 9300/ 8520. Click HERE to know more. BMS.

Two In One

For today's post, I'm showing you guys how to style a top in two different ways in just one day.

DAY.
I had a shoot this day and I was the stylist so I wore flats. When you style, you actually have to be very comfy because you'll be moving around a lot- fixing the outfit all the time, taping the sole of the shoes, clipping the clothes so it'll look better. I didn't wear any accessories on my hands so I can move freely- I just kept my ensemble bright.

AFTERNOON-NIGHT.
After my shoot, I went home and dressed up for the opening night of Fuerta Bruza, an amazing dance show that was held in Manila Hotel Tent. So I decided to change into the jeans (that actually kind of matches my top for some weird reason) and piled on silver and neon accessories. What made it pop out more: my neon necklaces and bright pumps- since my entire outfit is printed blue, it definitely gave the whole look an oomph. BMS.
