Swath

 Long-sleeves button-down (Energie), Gray Graphic Shirt (Antony Morato), Brown Shorts (Energie), Borwn Striped Socks (SM Accessories), Shoes (Topman), Aviators (Forever 21) and Time Keeper (Rolex).

As I have mentioned from my previous post, I just got my boyzilian and all i can see in my nether region is swath of pure cleanliness... I think I will be keeping it this way.

Through the years of my life I have gained a lot yet also lost some, oh well it is inevitable. There may be things that I can see through the "swath of my life" like my health lol! But seriously I have been sick for quite some time now, next would be the people that I have been with and sometimes I can't help but to accept that we are taking different roads now and lastly are the dreams and ideals that used to be important to me, it saddens  me somehow but then again moving on is a process that needs to be done enable to live and so I do it as quickly as possible. No time to waste.

Few days from now it will be my birthday again and I am happy that despite some sad thoughts I may be having, in totality I am indeed... happy.

Hope I made sense to you guys and I hope that you like the outfit plus a new vocabulary word for some! Feel free to comment and yes, thank you to all the people who will give me gifts. :)

Thank you to Joy Avilla for taking these pictures for me.

An Affair

This is what I wore during the opening of Miss Sixty and Energie at Alabang Town Center, CLICK HERE to see my blog post about it.

If you have observed the local films lately, particularly the romantic ones... I believe it is all about having an affair and we have "No Other Woman" to thank or shall I say Anne Curtis herself, probably because she has given a new meaning or impression to mistresses, they are now somehow characterized as more classy than a couple of years back when they were treated like prostitutes. 

With that as my inspiration I came up with this one... just a hint of red to justify love yet matched with gray and brown to give a sense of filth and impurity and the aviator? Well we all know affairs would often be as dark as secrets.

I think I need to get out more often, I'm not aware I'm this white already.

Gray Long-sleeves Button Down Shirt (Viktor), Brown Sweater (Gap), Maroon Full Length Pants (Topman), Brown Boots (Andre Chang for Folded and Hung), Dog Chain (Thrifted), Brown Bracelet (Topman), Connector Ring (Bring Rings), Time Keeper (Rolex), Red Belt (SM Accessories) and Aviator (Ray Ban). 

This is what I always look forward to with the whole Yuletide Season... Christmas lights everywhere!!!

Thanks to my friend Jay for always supporting me with these stuff! :)

An advance Seasons Greetings to everyone! I'm sorry I'm just very very excited and happy that it's near.

Sober Rain

Blue Tank top (Forever 21), Green Striped Blazer (Izzue), Accessories (Chemistry), Time Keeper (Rolex), Orange Belt (SM Accesories), Yellow Shorts (SM Accessories), Blue Striped Socks (SM Accessories), Gray Shoes (Topman).

This is what I wore during the Alcatel One Touch Launch, I did not get to do my outfit shot there due to time constraints and I'm shy to ask someone to do my outfit shot so I had my friend, Jay Pineda to do it for me at the comfort of my own house.

During these days where the event is held during the day when it's so sunny we just gotta wear something that will compensate with the heat yet during the afternoon or night where it is rainy, we gotta wear something that would contrast it so I had the blazer to top off my outfit to have a little safety... although thank God it did not rain during that day as I was outside so this is simply why I named it Sober Rain that would sound like Sovereign for my crown necklace.

That's it! Hope you guys drop me some comments about this one and feel free to hype on lookbook:

Today It Will Reign

 Hoodie Jacket (Thrifted), Sequenced Gray Shirt (Takeshy Kurosawa), Full Length Gray Pants (MEMO), Black Military Boots (Fred Perry), Studded Bracelet (Chemistry), Time Keeper (Rolex).

Get ready with your jackets, umbrella and boots! The rainy season has finally arrived. Always get protected nowadays since it is raining vastly and as we all know, a lot of people are now getting sick and this is because if we get wet we'll eventually get cold leading our immune system to lower down, so keep yourselves warm and take vitamin C.

I really like the shirt that I am wearing here, by the way I bought it during the Bloggers United 3 from JP Singson.

Well, whatever season it may be, you can always bring the best out of you, express yourselves and be creative and fashionable.

Plains and Planes

Structured brown buttondown (Bleach Catastrophe), Bone Dagger Necklace (OS Accessories), Time Keeper (Rolex), Bracelet (Oxygen), Bronze Full-Length Pants (Penshoppe) and Black Leather Shoes (Bradford).

You can never go wrong with neutrals. It gives you a very soft look but with an edge if you pull it off with some strong features, it's like make up when you just aim for something nude but give your eyes that very smokey look. In my case I like the detail on my top that makes me look thinner and taller... but what really makes me taller are my bradford shoes lol! I love them!

By the way, this is what I wore during the 7 For All Mankind Party.

Special thanks to the very talented and influential Miko Carreon for taking these awesome shots!

Time and Time

Denim top (Esprit), Gray Long-sleeves Shirt (OXYGEN), Maroon Full-length Pants (Topman), Shoes (Topman), Bone Bracelet (OS Accessories), Rings (Bring Rings), Time Keeper (Rolex).

If you have been keeping track of my looks, you will definitely recognize that I like to wear same clothes and shoes every now and then and just incorporate it with the new ones that I got.

Yes, just like most people, I, too have limits on wardrobe and it's actually an upside for me because it pushes my creativity on  how to mix and match so that I can have a different look yet using the same clothes, it gives me the virtue of being thrifty and economical.

I am by far more empowered to this idea, by the way, when Laureen Uy tweeted that repeating clothes is ok as long as you style them differently.

So there you go! What do you think guys? Share your mix and match to me as well! I love seeing how people can be so creative.

Parting From Party

Black Bow tie (SM Accessories), Black Blazer (Insight bought at Center of Gravity, Forbes Town Center), Blue Printed Button-down Shirt (Zara), Denims (Energie jeans), Black Leather Shoes (Bradford), Time keeper (Rolex) and Rings (Bring Rings).

Those shoes of mine is my secret why I am so tall lately, I wore them during our Baccalaureate Mass, Sampaguita Interlude (CEU Tradition), Graduation and Smart Nokia Lumia Afterparty, they're 3 inches so basically I am almost 6 feet when I wear 'em.

I don't see this as fooling other people, it's just a part of confidence boost (not that I need more lol). I say if it makes us look ourselves better then might as well go for it as long as we're not hurting anyone nor violating any rule... This goes the same as my view for plastic surgery, it would be awesome if my readers will back me up on this! lol!

anyways tell me what you think about my look!

Feel free to Hype it up on Lookbook!

Special thanks to: Jay Michelle Pineda for the editing!

EMANCIPATION

You all know that I just turned 21 and so I entitled this as Emancipation since it is this age where boys become men... prospectively speaking.
Let not be mistaken because I am not separating from my family yet. (still have to graduate then take the board exams then lastly to succeed in my career, whatever my career would be).

Just so I am walking at the stage of my life where adulthood comes to attest; striving hard for independence and freedom.


Emancipation from others ideals and putting onto mine as direction.
Emancipation from expectations and speculations; turning and creating opportunities to my fate. 

All that I can ask is for the good Lord to guide me as I tread through the future.

Animal Instincts

Fur Collar Jacket (Topman), Over-sized Shirt (AMY), Bone Dagger Necklace (OS Accessories), Denim Jeans (Energie), Brown Leather Boots (Forever 21) and Time Keeper (Rolex).

It is best to match small accessories with shirts contrasting their color to make them be emphasized.

Simple logic like this is often forgotten.
