Welcoming Change

Wedges: Gold Dot / Jacket, Pants & Top: Zara / Bag: Alexander Wang

Lately, most of my sartorial choices have taken a slightly deep turn into something that is more polished, feminine (ack!) and "grown up". While I still do have a soft, lust-filled spot for anything that looks edgy, urban and grunge, I have to accept the fact that I am getting older and older by the day and I reckon I would not be able to pull off a Coachella-inspired look, even if I want to, when I hit the age of 40. So here I am, stretching out my arms to slowly welcome a few style adjustments here and there, starting off with a predilection towards anything gleamingly white. I've always loved the "color" white -- it looks so clean, urbane and refreshing on the eyes. But I've also been hesistant in covering myself with garments in this pristine hue because the upkeep is quite tricky (white = dirt magnet). One of these days though, I will finally rock that all-white outfit I've been churning in my head.

Wore this to the grand launch of Zalora PH last nite. The attire theme for the event was "Dress To Impress". It has been a looong time since I last attended a night-time event and I honestly had a hard time coming up with an appropriate look for the party. I tried on a lot of looks but I ended up with my favorite printed trousers, a perforated faux leather top (which showcases my super toned arms...I'm kidding of course) and my new Mango heels. Not sure if this look translated well as a dressed-to-impress look but I was quite oh-kay with it. You're never going to see me in a tight and mini body conscious dress to a party anyway (well, not any time soon). The Zalora event was held in Skye Lounge, a posh bar of sorts with an open-area. While the weather was very humid, I had a fun time chatting with fellow bloggers and a few gorgeous ladies from the Zalora team. It has been a long time since I last saw them. 

Congratulations to the Zalora PH team for a wonderful event. Here's to revolutionizing the online shopping scene!

P.S. I obviously love my blue Carry All Bag from Made U Look that I had to use it again. :)
