Today's Outfit

 

 

This is what my outfit looks like. A plain black loose v-neck shirt, tucked into dark jeans and my black havaians brazil flip flops with my black oversized bag that looks like a mulberry bayswater. I love that it's simple & I'm actually thinking of keeping this look. So for 2011 I think I'm going classic. I'm keeping my fingers crossed I don't get swayed away by graphic tees 'coz as it is I've found a couple I want to get.

Too Juicy to miss

So I was online and was on tumblr when one of the people I follow, posted Juicy Coture stuff. I saw a ton of stuff I wanted and decided to go to their website. So now I have a couple of things I want. Here they are according to order on how much I want them.

1. Brogue 'Duchess' Tote

 2.  Quilted Medium Duchess (in either or both!)

3.  Polka Dot Chain Mini Bag

 

4.  Borgue Zip Clutch

Flippies!

This is definitely not the season for flip flops, but in a country with tropical weather all year long, you'll never go wrong with 'em. From sunny in the morning to all of a sudden gloomy by noon, flip flops can be life savers for some people living here. After all, who would want to have their shoes all ruined & soaked after paying good money for them?

Today I got 2 pairs of flip flops. First pair I got was the usual black havaianas brazil one. This is actually my second pair in the exact style and color. I got my first one freshman year of college, back in '06. I totally fell in love with it! The first reason being black, it would go with any, if not all, of my clothes. Second, it's a classic staple. Lastly, the fit was amazing! I don't know if it's just my siblings & I who've noticed, havaianas sizes tend to change measurements, which can be quite a bummer, but for this particular style the fit was perfect! So when it broke a year ago you can imagine the frustration I went through. To make things worse, every time I find a pair, it never comes in my size. So when I saw it today, I definitely didn't have second thoughts. It was also the last pair on the rack, not only in my size, but in all sizes. You can say it was meant for me. haha :)

The only difference from the old one is the word havaianas is now in yellow, while the old one was in black.

Second pair I got, I actually saw a week ago. I wanted to get it then and there because of it's design. For the past 6 months I've had quite the obsession with flamingos. I really don't know why, but they look so cute! That's actually the only reason why I got it. haha. Majority of my flip flops come in shades of blue, so when I saw it, it made me think twice. 'Til now I quite don't know what made me decide, but I guess I'm stuck with it. Oh, and before I forget, the straps for this pair are glow in the dark. Might as well make the most of it. :)

regret comes rolling in

so last friday, during my last day in manila for my overnight trip, i went to powerplant mall in rockwell to run a few last minute errands. while i was there i went around and browsed around a few stores, but didn't really decide on getting anything. so now here i am regretting things.

first thing to regret, a pair of royal blue wedges (just 1/2 inch in height) from payless shoesource. i didn't bother to check if they had it in my size, and now i want them. second, a cute butterfly necklace from parfois. it could have been perfect for plain dresses or tops. third, a pair of tan flats from nine west (been wanting them since april and when i decided to get them, the branch in rockwell didn't have them anymore). lastly, a pair of pjs from dorothy perkins (see picture below). it was purple (not my favorite color), but i love the print! a little cartoon monkey! i'm crazy for cartoon monkeys!  now, i so want those pjs! plus while i was browsing dorothy perkins' site, i found a similar one, but with a cow print on it, which is equally adorable and comes in my favorite color combo, blue & white!!! along with them, i saw this polka dotted robe which would be great, since the robe i own is ankle length. hahah!
