Electric Youth

Channeling a Flashdance 80's look (haha!) with a super comfortable colorblocked cropped sweater. Wore this to a meeting with a lingerie brand about two weeks ago. The jeans were supposed to be really fit and skinny but the only available size left was 3 sizes bigger than my normal jeans size. I'm actually glad that I a baggier pair as it fits my low-waist requirements. I was supposed to wear a more rugged pair of shoes with this jeans+sweater combo but I thought a sexy pair of heels would be a great counter element to an otherwise casual and laid back ensemble. Finished off the whole look with a gorgeous clutch in an electrifying silver finish from Gold Dot. I am in love with this silver piece. It reminds me of the silver clutch I've been eyeing from H&M's past 'Against Aids' collection. This Gold Dot 'Elektra' clutch, for me, is actually better though.

Fluorescent Yellow

Remember when I mentioned here that I'm quite fixated with the color yellow? Here's proof -- another bright and sunny yellow ensemble. It feels quite liberating to digress from my all-black or dark-hued outfits once in a while...and what better way to embrace color than to wear a fluorescent yellow piece! Paired with cheery blue suede pumps, I'm all ready to blow a dust of happy sunshine onto everyone. :)

If you wish to get your hands on a lovely pair of Sugarfree pumps (like mine), you can visit their FB page HERE. Sugarfree is also available in the Young Adults Section of Rustans Makati and Alabang.

White Out

I've always wanted to sport an all-white ensemble but I just didn't have enough white pieces in my closet to come up with a decent immaculate all-white look. Imagine my delight when I received this white top and skirt in the mail...they just make a perfect pair. The skirt is supposed to be worn high-waist but I decided to wear them low-slung to give an illusion of mile-long limbs. And as for the top, I just can't enough of its cross back design. Topped off the whole look with a wide-brimmed hat, round sunnies, kitschy accessories and a yellow leather cuff for some pop of color. Coincidentally, we found this vintage Volkswagen truck which makes for a perfect backdrop to my off-to-Coachella look.

As promised, here are the photos from the collabo shoot I had with Anton. Anton currently dabbles in street photography, taking photos of friends and of random breathing souls. I'm not sure if this shoot was his first themed one, but I sure did enjoy doing it with him. It's nice to break away from "outfit" posts once in a while. It's also great to be in the company of people who share the same interests and vision as I do, moreso if they all reside in the same area as where I live (cheers to the South, baby!). When Anton and I were discussing the theme for this shoot, I knew in my head that I wanted to wear this Ornithopter dress from Paradigm Shift. It's such a simple piece but has a tough and sultry whimsy to it. It sure hell looks good with the Drei wedges from Gold Dot too. Now, if this look doesn't project a "Don't you dare mess with me!" 'tude, I don't know what else will.

I'll share another set of photos in the next post! Till then, lovelies! :)

P.S. Thank you once again to Camille Regala for doing my hair and makeup for this shoot. You effin' rock, baby girl! Hell yeahz!
