Combining the Basics

Combining basic items can be fun.  Sometimes, we can come up with a cute look by mixing the basics that we usually pair with more elaborate pieces.  The best thing about this is that these basics are always in our closets.  Even when seasons and trends come and go, we hold on to them.  In short, we can count on them no matter when and where.  Here is a basic look that I've tried to come up with.

basic denim polo: Forever 21, basic beige skirt: from Bangkok, basic brown booties: from Italy, basic brown belt: Zara

Let's Do Corporate

I don't usually like dressing up very "corporate" when going to work.  I prefer comfortable clothes where I feel free to think, move and go around the office.  But when I started tryting on trousers made of softer fabrics, I began to love them.  They felt very comfortable.  It's like wearing PJ's but looking more professional. =)  In my recent trips to the mall, I've already started trying on different kinds of trousers that look and feel nice on.  I need to buy some for my own because I just borrowed this pair from my sister.  My dad will surely be happy to see me dressed more corporate. haha!

sheer top: from Bangkok, trousers: my sister's old ones, light pink heels: Charles and Keith


I feel more respectable looking like this. haha! =)

Drizzle Drizzle

This is a good time to welcome some rain after weeks and weeks of burning heat.  My way of welcoming the rain is by trying to wear an all-blue outfit. =)

  Let's not rejoice on the damages it can bring, but on the other hand, let's also enjoy the good things about it.  Together with the plants and our environemnt, let's momentarily indulge in this cool and refreshing change of weather.
