Snipped

(Top & Skirt: H&M// Shoes: Feet For A Queen// Clutch: Made U Look// Earrings: F21)

Surprise! Don't I look like a boy with my new hair? Haha! Don't get me wrong. I am loving the new 'do. It feels liberating to have a mane this short. I don't have to fiddle with my hair incessantly and I don't have to worry about strands of hair covering my face whenever the wind decides to blow my way. Friends have been constantly grilling me whether I felt guilty or sorry that I had a large chunk of my hair chopped off. My answer is: No, I didn't feel sad at all. I'm used to having short hair. In fact, I had short hair during my whole stay in college. So what does one wear to debut her new short hair? Floral prints of course! Okay, okay...it's not mandatory to wear floral prints when you've just gotten a pixie cut but for my sake, I chose feminine pieces as a contrast to my boyish 'do. I didn't want to be mistaken for a boy, you know...although I do get comments like "Uy, pogi!" (pogi refers to a good-looking boy) once in a while. Oh well.

New In: Sexy Black

1st Pair: Feet For A Queen// 2nd Pair: Mango

New additions to the shoe family. I've been meaning to purchase these Mango heels and was so ecstatic when Le Boy decided to get them for me (Sweet!). While I'm not easily attracted to stiletto-heeled shoes, these simple black heels are undeniably sexy on the feet and pair well with high waist shorts and skinny jeans. As for the black & beige platforms, well...you guys know how much I love chunky heels. This pair resemble the JC Dressen platforms so well and I can't wait to take them out for a walk.

Hurrah for minimalist shoes! Now if only someone can gift me with a pair of Joan pumps (*bats eyelashes*).

Velvety Blue

(Striped Sweater: Zara// Cardigan: Giordano// Shorts: Pinkaholic Fashion Shoppe// Pumps: Feet For A Queen// Clutch: Topshop// Ring: SM Accessories)

Here's the blue version of the velvet shorts I wore in this POST. Among the two colors, I have a soft spot for this ink hue. It's even more gorgeous when seen up close. The sheen gets played up when light hits the fabric. I decided to pair these shorts with my towering red pumps and transforming cardigan from Giordano (wore it as a vest). I've had this cardigan for quite some now but I only had the chance to feature it in this blog today (blame it on my chaos of a closet). There are a lot of available multi-way dresses in stores but nothing much on multi-way outerwear pieces. This cardigan is such a good buy for its versatility and function. I can wear it in many different ways and it helps keep me warm during colder days and inside freezing airconditioned areas.

Shoe Fetish

Gah! My Dolce Vita "Wilix" boots are here! 

I mentioned in a previous POST that I'm quite obsessed with low-heeled ankle boots...so I'm beyond ecstatic to finally get my hands on this pair of Wilix boots. It's everything I expected it to be. It's pretty bad ass and sturdy and will go perfectly well with my muscle shirts and denim shorts. Aside from the boots, I also got myself a pair of chunky peeptoe platforms. They remind me of the shoes from Prada and Steve Madden. Ordered these shoes, plus a pair of Jeffrey Campbell "Busted" (yay for platform creepers!) from Feet For A Queen.


On a slightly different note (but still related to shopping), I've been constantly seeing various local replicas of Cambridge Satchels. While doing a bit of Search-And-Shop, I stumbled upon a fluorescent yellow Cambridge replica via The Bag Finder PH. Fluoro Yellow! Holy cow! This is my first time seeing a locally-made fluoro satchel and it looks yummy! I had an authentic Cambridge fluoro yellow 11" satchel pre-ordered from a local shoe shop about four months ago (which is equivalent to a decade of waiting, if you ask me) but until now, THAT bag is still MIA. Makes me want to get this replica from Honeybadger Satchels instead! Damn!

Oh well...
