Stuck In A Rut

An ultimate lazy look for a lazy day. This outfit would've been pretty boring too if I hadn't cheated and played with accessories. When you feel like sh*t or when you're just too much of a sloth to dress up, I swear...a hat, pair of sunglasses and interesting jewelry can do wonders!

When you're running out of ideas on what to wear, just throw on a pair of flashy shorts (just like my silver high waists) and top it with sky-high wedges and quirky accessories. It's a fail-safe formula. Try it.

I borrowed the title of this post from the opening line of Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit", which could very well be the grunge anthem of the 90s. This photo set is a continuation of the grunge series that Edric and I collaborated on and my outfit here is probably my favorite out of the three sets I prepared...partly due to the fact that I took the risk and wore this asymmetrical skirt sideways (see proper way of wearing this skirt here). Topped with a bleached denim jacket and platform creepers, I'm ready to slash it out in a music festival and run the streets with reckless abandon.

Edric, thank you for capturing the vulnerable side of me through these photos.

P.S. I'm currently in Davao for Araw ng Dabaw and will be in Barangay SIR Covered Court tomorrow for the Joy Kaon Ta, Davao event. If you guys are near the area, hope you can drop by! :)

Harness

Adorned an otherwise simple outfit with a "you-can't-miss" body harness. Love the play on the triangular shapes. There's something so gypsy/grunge-ish about an inverted triangle shape...I just can't explain why. I don't think I'll ever get tired of harnesses. I'll continue wearing them, even if they go out of style. Oh, my Topshop "Ambush" boots finally makes an appearance! I've been living in these boots lately. They're just so darn comfy and easy to wear.

Only 2 days left till another new year. For this coming 2012, I wish for more amazing blogging opportunities, good health (for me and my loved ones) and finally, a sense of contentment. What are your goals/resolutions/wishes for 2012?
