Cat eyes and all that jazz

wearing: top from WOMB (Japan), shorts from H&M, leggings from Forever 21, boots from Forever 21

This was one of the outfits I wore during my trip to Japan, when I had arrived in Osaka. I bought the top and shorts during that trip, and I couldn't resist attempting to dress up like the Japanese girls from the magazines I browse! I mean, when's the next time I'll be able to dress up like this in Japan? Ha ha. I am also wearing brown eyeliner (which can barely be seen) that I bought from a drug store for 300 yen. Note to self: never buy cheap make up, even if it's made in Japan. I believe my eyes transformed from cat to raccoon as the day went by.

A Little Bit Coy

I am wearing a dress from Seven Dials, tights from H&M, headband from Japan, bag from HAZE, and vintage shoes.

My first outfit post. I was thinking of calling this post "a little bit awkward" but it doesn't sound as cool. I just couldn't help wearing this beautiful, black Peter Pan collared dress! I got it for only Php 500 (about $12), can you believe? For this dress, I wouldn't mind suffering from heat rash..

So I've been pretty busy with school-related crap this week. At least once hell week has passed it'll finally be summer vacation, and I'll be free to take pictures all day long! Wish me luck.

These Little Wonders

I'm practically halfway through my summer vacation, and I'm quite apprehensive about it all. This year is going to be a big one for me. I'll be celebrating my 18th birthday with a formal debut and starting my first year of college. Gosh, there is so much to do but I'm way too lazy to even get off the bed.. I've got to enlist, enroll, plan and bla bla bla. Thinking is making me sleepy. 

Easy-Breezy Summer Outfits

I happened to stumble upon ASOS earlier, an online store that sells both women and men's apparel, and fell in love with many of their items. These are the types of outfits I'd enjoy wearing during the summer. And yes, most of these outfits do show a girl wearing short shorts, much shorter than I'd feel comfortable with, but that's not the essence of this collection of outfits.

Summer in the Philippines is very much like being in a desert. Okay, that's a hyperbole, but not too exaggerated in my opinion. Though it is not extremely humid, there are days when the sun just shines down too brightly, and I feel like I am getting skin cancer whilst I walk outside. No wonder I'm getting fatter, anyway.. These outfits from ASOS do look quite spring-ish, yes? I think the season of spring was when floral prints and cream/pastel/nude colors were in season, but I don't think there is a reason not to be able to wear these spring-y outfits during the summer.

DID YOU KNOW THAT BLACK IS A COLOR THAT ABSORBS MORE HEAT THAN ANY OTHER COLOR? Did you also know the 'hot' colors (red, orange, yellow, etc.) absorb more heat than 'cool' colors (blue, violet, what-have-you)? Ah, well if you didn't and are currently confused, it's okay. I was too when I was taught this in science class. But I'm not going to go into detail with that. I just thought that these light and 'cool' colors would be great for summer, as they will be less likely to absorb heat. I sound like a nerd, but that's fine!!

When I look at these outfits, I imagine myself wearing them, and I feel like one of those girls in those commercials with the breezy and the beautiful and the cover girl trees and the wind. Oh, I think one of those deodorant commercials has popped into my mind. Anyhow, I don't say breezy meaning the wind will pull up your skirt, I mean the wind can still reach -- oh gosh do I sound like a pervert XD? Lulz. Oh gosh, how do I say this without sounding nasty? (._.''')
