I don’t know about you but for a long time, I’ve known that Maybelline is a tried and tested brand for affordable yet really high quality makeup which is why my makeup kit i never without my favorite Maybelline Mascara. I find that the brand has been a constant in my life as it’s probably the one makeup brand that I used way back when I was a teenager and until now and it’s never failed to make me look glamorous.

The Blazer Dress

Green11

Dressing up for the workplace is something I am still getting accustomed to. I’there quite vocal in the past on how I refer to my style as somewhat “fashion bipolar” as I seem to have a penchant to wear outfits from complete opposites of the style spectrum and I do it quite severely wherein one day, I may be flirty and feminine and then the next, I’m all about androgynous and rocker chic attire. It was something I had a lot of fun with especially when I was in my early-mid twenties which I think is the perfect age to get away with almost everything (I say almost because when it comes to fashion, I tend to have a never say never policy but I have to say I made the exception and drew the line to that rule for visible underwear, thong lines, bra straps and pasties.) I got to experiment and that was fun but I’ve come a long way and while studs and spikes and grommets were something I used to be fond of, I think that hardly passes as appropriate work attire… well, unless you work in a brothel or you’re a dominatrix or something.

Bloggers United 9

JL-BU

 

Hello everyone! It’s that time of the year again and as you know, I for one cannot wait. Twice a year, our readers get a chance to come for a meet, a greet, a selfie or a hug and we are most willing to grant them this. This event is called Bloggers United and for the ninth time around, join me as I give you first dibs on scoring some fabulous finds from my closet- most of them once worn or not at all (yes, I do mean brand new stuff!) As you know, a blogger and a fashion maven like me can only store my beloved items with a limit and you would be doing me a great favor if you’d drop by my booth, look around and check if you’d be willing to give my clothes, shoes and accessories a new home where they’d be more appreciated. You’d be doing me a favor actually… So I have to say, in this case, I would owe you one.

Not another teen queen in bubble gum pink

I know what everyone is thinking with this outfit at first glance. I actually taught it myself when I saw myself in the mirror. The bubble gum pink statement sweater + the pleated cheerleader style miniskirt = the outfit of the teen queen in most H.S. movies and of course when you think of H.S. teen queen, I think Regina George from Mean Girls is the first character that comes to mind. It might be that I am 27 going on 28… but I feel this strange need to dress up as fun and as young as possible the past few days because I can still get away with it. Besides, what is fashion if not fun? Sometimes, one has to take a whimsical outlook too when it comes to dressing up… So I wore this to the much-awaited for Manila Sundance Bazaar over at Metrotent, Ortigas.
