The White Button Down

 

 ... is LOVE! 

It's been a while since I last blogged. My two younger siblings are on vacation now (they are still students), so every spare time that I have, I'd rather spend with the whole family. That's because we are really "whole" during school vacations. LOL! It's very rare for us to do that when the school year starts.

Well, enough of the drama.

This is a very comfortable button down shirt I scored from a thrift store. It is really very soft and the fabric is light and doesn't need ironing at all! :) I got this piece almost a month ago, and I just cannot help wearing it at least once a week. Talk about a versatile shirt! This is it! :) I've worn this with denim shorts, with a pencil skirt, as a cover up, as a (sorta) cardigan, and now, with leggings.

I'm also loving my flats as it is super soft in the inside... like Twinkies! LOL! Seriously, the interior of these shoes are cushioned so it feels like you are walking on a carpet. :)

I shoulda prolly took this photoshoot outside so my sunglasses could serve its purpose. But I don't have a tall tripod to use my camera with. :( Boo!

I have tons of these earrings in different colors. They are made of light-weight wood, by the way. :) Aaaaaand each pair only cost me 50 pesos (a little more than a dollar). *^^*

Hope everyone is having a nice day despite the super hot weather! :)

Sunkissed Nails

Been liking animal print nails these days. :)

Thanks to this new Caronia polish color, I suddenly fell in love with orange.♥

I cannot believe it's already Monday! :( I want my weekend back. Oh jeez, if only that's possible!

Nothing Special About This Friday

 ...but the idea of being hours away from weekend brings the biggest, most genuine smile on my face!☺ Happy Friday to everyone!

My partner in crime for this blog (a.k.a. my camera) was borrowed for a week so I wasn't able to post pictures of the nail art designs I came up with this week. I got my little gadget back today though, so I'll be shooting crazy some things I will blog about next week. *^^*

For now, I will be listing down the things I am currently obsessed with.♥♥♥

Denim shorts! I particularly love the distressed ones. They are my current fashion eye candies. A few months back, our family received a huge balikbayan box from a relative abroad that contained heaps of clothes. There were tons of jeans, too! But sadly, I wasn't interested with the styles it carried. So I watched countless video tutorials on how to cut denim pants into shorts and make them look stylish and updated. :D

Zebra prints! Last year, I was so engrossed with the idea of leopard prints and now I candidly moved on to a fellow animal print - this time, black and white. :D I have a VERY similar skirt like this but instead of black and white, it was black and gray.

(Photo from Google) Now if only I have that body to rock this kind of outfit!!!! So jealous! 

Zebra print top from thrift shop. :D

Turquoise jewelry! I love purple. I also love turquoise. ♥♥♥ It all started when my sweet cousin gifted me a pair of turquoise earrings for Christmas (pictured below). After that, I began buying rings, necklaces, more earrings and even more rings with turquoise stones (not the real ones, though... I can only wish!).

Milk tea! Sad fact: I cannot drink coffee (unless it's decaffeinated). My heart just cannot handle caffeine well. :( But I worry not, because Lipton milk tea saves my day! :D I love having tea (the real ones that you steep) at home but when I'm at work, I settle for the ones from sachets. It tastes the same, minus the hassle of mixing tea, creamer and sugar. It's perfect for the really cold January breeze.♥

Lip balms! It's sooo cold these days! And I think it's even colder here where I live because we're almost on top of Manila. Unfortunately, the cold and dry weather has taken a toll on my lips. You see, I have thick lips, and when it becomes dry and flaky, it is just SO OBVIOUS. :( I have always carried lip balms with me since high school. My first one was Chapstick. After a while, I got tired with it's strong scent, so I moved on to Nivea. Now, I am absolutely in love with Carmex. At night though, before I go to dreamland, I only use petroleum jelly on my lips. I've been doing that for more than a decade now and have always loved the result.

This is the exact same brand I use. :D (Photo from Google) 

There you go. My "obsessions" would probably change from time to time. Heehee! *^^*

I'm still grinning from ear to ear because it's Friday. I hope this weekend will be an awesome one for all of us.
