Classic X Neon

When it comes to fashion, my personality really dwells more on the classic side. I love keeping it simple, "less is more" is what I live by... My closet is 75% black & nudes, so I can experiment and transform my clothes in more ways that people won't be able to tell that I'm just wearing the same thing.  Well, to be honest, it's also because I have really limited clothes since I got married coz I have a much smaller closet now, which I also share with my husband. To keep the trendy vibe though, I combine my classic outfits with playful yet still simple accessories to match, like what I've worn here.


This skirt is really one of my favorites that I frequently wear. Originally a midi (first worn here) I stitched up the front hem of the skirt up to the waistband to make it look like a bubble high-low skirt (next worn here). This is one of my styling tricks I am proud to share.  

B/W Aztec Top: Cotton On, Singapore (Sale at S$10, or P330)
Yellow Slim Garter Belt: The Landmark (P120)
(Transformed) Midi Skirt: Blanc et Noir (Sale at P349)

Wearing ultra-colorful things is in fact a lil out of my comfort zone but I really like these simple neon accents that gave my outfit a spirit of youth.

Neon Bangles: For Reselling Soon (Est. SRP P180)
Black Wedge: Sole Desire from People are People (Sale @ P699)

More often than not, I also dress up according to what I will do for the day. So, since I had to run around the whole day at work last Friday to rush a lot of things for our coming event this week, I also brought my reliable black flats, just in case.

Polkadots

Had dinner at MoMo Cafe in Ayala Triangle Gardens last night with my hubby to celebrate our nine years of being together. Can you believe it? 9 years since College? I guess time really flies when you're having fun...

Anyway, to dress up for the occasion, I wore a red polkadot button-down blouse I bought from Alter/Ego by Bea Benedicto. I'm not usually a fan of color red but it just looked so dainty that tickled the girly-girl in me. 

To put a classic twist to my outfit, I paired my red polkadot top with a black skirt, originally a midi, which I temporarily turned into a bubble/high-low skirt by sewing the front hem of the skirt up to the waistband tucked inside the skirt and secured with a belt. Genius, right??? 

The drop off area at the Makati Stock Exchange is such a nice location for an outfit shoot. Though I would have preferred a day shoot, these night shots are actually quite impressive as well.

Where's the light?


I think I have found my signature pose. The "pop the knee" pose. It works naman diba? I like how it make my legs look slimmer than they really are. Don't you agree?
