Sorry if I haven’t been blogging much lately—especially outfit posts. The rainy weather is making me lazy and it’s impossible to shoot outdoors…but I guess these would do! A reader sent me these paintings today and I just had to share it with you guys right away. They’re too awesome for words! Thank you so much Xio Macasio! You inspired me to paint again. Contact...

I really go all the way to Mega Mall to dine at Yabu: The House of Katsu—the first and only authentic katsu restaurant in the country. It’s already my fifth time to eat there and I think now’s the perfect time to share my “Yabu experience” with all of you!
The Katsu Ritual: Step 1—grind the fresh black and white sesame seeds.
Step 2—then pour the...

I almost never wear black and brown together because I’ve been told not to—especially my dad haha. Was supposed to wear brown cargo pants and brown shoes but what gives! We should let go of these so-called “sartorial rules” and be open to a variety of style interpretations right? Haha anyway, it was raining the whole weekend here in Manila! Got to wear this parka which I...

This is one of the outfits I styled for Mall of Asia’s end of season sale a few weeks ago. Didn’t get to post everything because it was such a quick campaign. Hang Ten, one of the many brands which you’ll find in MOA, is my number one go-to store for basic button down shirts and I just recently found out that they also have casual shirts, tank tops and bags. Scroll down for a...

Zipz Shoes— the first removable and interchangeable shoes! Such a cool idea! They have slip ons, high top sneakers, 5-eye, 6-eye, etc.
It comes with zip-on/zip-off covers that comes in a variety of solid colors and really cool prints. I got this bandana print inspired cover and a white basic canvas cover.
Just simply zip off the cover and zip on a different one—genius!...

Wore this to school, a shoot and a movie night with a couple of buddies from college. It was raining all day so I decided to wear this modern kapote, haha! Without the jacket, the outfit would look a little too casual. So the jacket definitely added a more camper/street feel to it—plus, it’s red and it’s reversible! Also, don’t forget to drop by SM Mall of Asia for the...

All black for a rainy day in Manila. When wearing an all black outfit, you don’t want it to look flat and boring. To make your look more dynamic, what you can do is layer different textures. With my look, I threw in some dark denim, leather, woven shirt and cargos.
What I’m wearing: dark denim jacket with leather details (Folded & Hung), black button down with star...

Sebago has been around for more than 40 years and they never changed the process and quality that goes into each pair. Sebago truly has the finest shoes, I don’t even know how many times I wore those odanak boots!
Now they have a new collection aligned with their new campaign entitled “Not Your Ordinary Boat Shoe.” My top pick from the new colors collection is this...
