I always enjoy going to Makati on Sundays because traffic is nonexistent, the streets are empty and there’s no rush hour. Had a shoot for an up and coming online magazine (the people behind it are good friends of mine). They fake tanned me (not that I need it lol) and colored my hair blonde. Definitely a first for me! Weekend well spent. What I’m wearing: tank top (Forever 21...

Wore this to a day full of errands. I regret it though. Sobrang init. When I have meetings, I make it a point to bring my laptop (I use a 15” macbook pro) with me. Then if my next meeting is just in the area, I usually just go to a nearby coffee shop and work on my pending entries. Didn’t even bother bringing a bag today because the Asus Zenbook UX21E is so light plus it looks really...

Dropped by the Mandaue Foam showroom in Quezon Ave (they have 17 branches) yesterday for a tour. I have to admit, I wasn’t so ecstatic when I got the invite, the idea of going to a furniture shop was pretty intimidating and way beyond my maturity level (lol what) but they didn’t disappoint. Mandaue Foam is very passionate in what they do and I think that shows in the quality products...

I know this isn’t the usual thing I post here but thank you ValueMeal for giving my dog Maximillian his big break! lol. Dogs’ lifestyle here in the Philippines is not as active as that of its Western counterparts where their owners take them jogging and religiously do physical activities with them. Only on rare occasions do Pinoy dog owners engage their pets in activities. And with this,...

Realized I’ve been wearing a lot of formal clothes lately. Am I finally growing up? Haha decided to ditch the blazer and go back to my usual casual wear. Wore this to the VIP opening of Forever 21 at SM North, The Block. Walked the ramp with my fellow brand ambassadors Tricia, Stacy & Lissa. Had such a great night! Still so overwhelmed!  What I’m wearing: denim jacket (Forever...

Before anything else, I am very happy to announce that I am now a brand ambassador for Canon Philippines! Who would’ve thought?

What do you think?  What I’m wearing: grey blazer (Forever 21 Men), grey button down (Forever 21...

What I wore to my thesis defense last Wednesday. I was so nervous but I just had to ask my classmate to take my photos for the blog (that’s what you call dedication! lol). But I gotta say, power dressing can really give you that edge and confidence. Aced my presentation and my thesis will be archived! Can’t be any happier! Hello one month summer break! What I’m...

What I wore to a semi-formal lunch event by the bay. Semi formal attire usually means a  2-piece suit with a light-colored button down shirt and/or necktie. When in doubt, it’s always better to go slightly overdressed than showing up too casual. No need to wear formal leather shoes. I decided to show up without wearing socks haha What I’m wearing: grey blazer with silk...

Something bright for summer. Was supposed to wear this to the neon-themed Status anniversary party last night but something came up and I had to miss it. Sucks for me! Anyway the shirt (which I turned into a tank top) was designed by AJ Dimarucot. I’m a big fan of his work! So cool that I got to wear one of his designs! Check his works here. What I’m wearing: windup robot...

What I wore to the Converse shoot a few weeks ago. Wore something which I think best represents the brand so I went for something laid back and skater boy-inspired, nothing really beats the classic! Paired it with my Converse watch and classic Converse shoes.   What I’m wearing: tank top (Converse), cap (SM Accessories), shades (Ray-Ban), pants (Topman),...
