Top Trends 2010: Sportswear




Inspiration: 

[photo from style.com]

Honestly, when I saw the word sportswear in the list of top trends for 2010, I got a bit nervous cause I do not own one piece of clothing that I personally can consider "sportswear". Thank god for researching, I found out that sportswear for 2010 are separates that are clean and monotone and that I can assure you I have alot since I'm into the whole Ella from Melrose Place vibe nowadays. haha! So this is what I came up with the inspiration I got from the pictures above! I wanted to make it a bit more interesting by wearing a cropped top and leg warmers. My god, can you now imagine the look on people's faces in the mall I went to earlier?? HAHA!

Anyway, you know how songs can somehow inspire the way you pose for pictures? And the song I chose to listen to the whole day that inspired me to pose like the way I do in the pictures below is Kickstarts by Example! I'll be posting the song below so go play it first before looking at the pictures below ;-) haha Oh and sorry for bombarding you with posts today.. I'm wearing two outfits today and both channel trends from the Preview list! :-) Happy New Year everyone!!!! :-) its in 4 HOURS!!

Top Trends 2010: Utilitarianism

[vest: magically came out of nowhere
pants: SM
shoes: SM
belt: magically came out of nowwhere]

I've always wanted to try this trend but never really had the guts to since well I dont think that monotone baggy clothing suits me well but for the sake of the challenge, I decided to try it out! Planned to wear khakis but when I found this green vest on my closet, which I have no idea where it came from, I decided to pair it with my green pants! The flash changes the color of the pants but its almost like the vest :-) I'm starting to love the trend because its loose and comfy which makes it easier for me to move around in especially since I wore this to my mom's side of the family's reunion. My aunts in that side have so much kids that I can't help myself to be one of them everytime I'm around them. haha! Its New Year's in a bit and I can't wait to show you what I'll be wearing!! Wait for it!

P.S. Sorry for the no make up look! I had to give my skin a rest! hahaha

Top Trends 2010: Stripes





[striped polo: Marks and Spencer
floral shorts: SM
booties: Rockwell bazaar 
hat: Cosmopolitan Clothing]

P.S. Having a blog can be such a hassle sometimes because people can openly give comments and right now, I am not in the mood to really entertain them. People have moods and this is mine right now. So for those who keeps commenting on my formspring that the stripes in this ensemble is not seen, I'm sorry but deal with it. Zoom in nalang, please. You don't have to say bad things and hate me for that. Thank you.

ADIDAS x Status x Facehunter: TOMORROW!




so excited!!

Facehunter in Manila




Yesterday was definitely one of the highlights for my blogging life or actually for the year for me. As all you know, I'm new at blogging (going 4 months soon!) and I haven't really gotten my way around it and I'm just in the process on meeting new people and other bloggers. This event really is a good turn out for me and I wanna share it with you guys! :-) I shall tell it the story through pictures! 

He just talked about his book for awhile and answer ALOT of the audience's questions! 


Went to Fullybooked at Highstreet yesterday for the book signing of Facehunter and I had such a blast listening to his interview thanks to Efril who kept me company the whole time! :-) haha

Also, a bloggers event would not be one if you don't hang out and meet new blogger friends! :-) Had pictures with Kookie and Llyoda as well but not from my camera so I'll just be waiting for other posts and update this! :-) haha



With Efril, she was my buddy for the night! Super enjoyed your company!! :-) 



With Ava and Ana! :-)

After waiting in line for almost 3 hours, I finally got to get my book signed and it was really surreal! Loved what he wrote and his sense of humor made it worth while! :-) 





He took my pictures too!! :-D hahaha



And here's what he wrote on my book :-) Got really kilig that he wrote this! :-) 


My outfit for the night! Wanted to wear something girly so I wore this SM dress and my brown pumps to the event :-) I should really style my hair more this way, what do you think? :-)
