Another chic black and white outfit using my new favorite leather bag from Jellybean. Just one of the items I bought when I went on a shopping spree with them. Which you can read all about here.

About the title, have you heard about Jessica Jung’s upcoming brand Blanc? I bet it’s something black and white enthusiast and kpop fans like me would anticipate about. I can’t wait to see all the chic pieces she will be releasing. I know she won’t go wrong ‘cause.. you know she’s Jessica, and she’s pretty much on top of her fashion game. She makes black and white so modern and sexy. Just google her airport outfits, haha!

Me, being a big fan of monochrome looks, I think there’s just something really cool about wearing black and white. You wear something so simple that it just makes who you are stand out.

Finally, after such a long hiatus, I’m BACK with a new look! My version of the off-duty look. Finally had some time to waste

The past few months have been very busy. I’ve been doing a ton of commuting to and from castings and VTRs, doing shoots and campaigns for my One Mega Group family, fulfilling my prize as Hana Shampoo No Filter Beauty Ambassador and I even landed a role in a TVC!

All of which I would blog about if I had the time and the right emotions to do so ha!

At the same time, I celebrated my birthday, which means I’m already 21. An age where I think I’ll be mature and working, but still I’m in my immature waiting phase, LOL.

Don’t want to elaborate it, but it just means that I’m not doing the things I really want to be doing at this age. But I guess I should really just stay strong.

Anyway, this crop shirt I got from Choies, totally reminded me what kind of girl who I want to be. Well, not someone who bites back (I think that would be weird, or naught, IDK) haha! But someone who is strong enough to fight.

I’ve been obsessing about urban clothing lately and now I’m so into Statement/Printed items nowadays! Shirts, hats, jewelry, even bags! I can’t wait to find and search for more captions like these that can show everyone how I’m feeling even I’m not talking!

I’m pretty timid and I’m not that really good at opening topics, so I think shirts like this are awesome conversation starters. Specially for girls!

And I think they’re too cute and simple, you can pair it with almost anything! the perfect casual shirt I must say.

Paired it with a black pleated skirt which is coming back as a trend. I swear, clothes that my mom used to wear just keeps coming back from the “so last year” to “so this season”.

Pleats are so cool right now, it makes me feel like I’m a bad-ass or something, hence the poses. But really, don’t you think this skirt from ROMWE is too cute and sexy to resist?

One last flirty look for the summer! Still following the off-shoulder trend with white high waist pants and denim this time!

i love that this look is just so carefree and fun and cute. Too bad I only got to wear my summer outfits when it’s already been raining. I’m such a lazy follower when it comes to season trends.

Anyway, can’t wait for it to freezing cold soon so I can bring out my coats and jackets.

Another basic black, white and gold look from me. I don’t know why I’m obsessed with this mix but it’s just to classy and chic it’s too hard not to stick with it.

This acne sweatshirt was the item I chose when Sheinside asked me if I can cooperate with them. I have been a fan of Sheinside ever since but I don’t have enough followers to apply for their blogger program so I was very ecstatic when I received an email from them. This was the first item I ever received from Sheinside and I tell you, I’ve fallen in love with this sweatshirt.

I actually saw this sweatshirt first on the Sheinside website. Then I started seeing it in street style snaps on japanese mags (Vivi 2-14 issue). So I started searching for inspirations on how to wear it and I saw Xiao Wen Ju - just one of the many asian top models and fashion icons I’m crazy about, wearing it during fashion week! And that’s when I knew I need to have this sweatshirt.

And speaking of fashion week, I’ve been so obsessed with the recent Fall Winter 2014 shows, I think I’m switching up my seasons! In my mind it’s still too chilly to wear short skirts and midribs! When everyone’s to hot to even wear anything, here I am all covered up, ha! Maybe it’s the cold summer nights.

By the way I still have two ongoing giveaways in my blog. If you want fancy $200 lace dress, go HERE. If you want to receive your $400 wishlist for free, go HERE.

Here’s what I usually wore on lazy days. Lazy days are basically casual trips to the mall for shopping, coffee, or your just doing errands that doesn’t require much styling.

Basically you’re just too lazy to power dress. But being it a lazy day, I still don’t wanna look like I’m just wearing my home clothes, haha if you know what I mean.

I wore this during N.E.W. fashion and beauty fair where I know I was going to buy a lot of things. Given that Tricia Gosingtian was going to do a “mini garage sale” of her clothes at the event, I had to be on my “Comfiest-shopping-game face-on” look I can haha!

I wore my favorite pair of sneaker wedges and brought my handy Forever 21 tote bag, to put all the stuff I’m going to buy. It’s my trusty bag slash green bag haha!

When it comes to my look, its pretty simple. I just curled the ends of my hair, filled in my brows, put on eyeliner, mascara, a light pink blush and red matte lips.

This is what I normally look like, and its the most natural I can get in front of the public. :)

I know very well that I don’t have the perfect body. I’m actually super slim. But that doesn’t stop me from wearing what I want to.

From all the trends that has been coming out right now, I have a very special love for this item – the crop top.

Crop tops makes me show my only curve – my waist line. Haha! So its a definite yes for me. Well, this is really how I usually style myself. Trendy and rock chic. Trendy, ’cause I’m a big fan of the fashion industry and I am very much well aware of the trends. Rock, ’cause I wear anything that makes me feel like a rockstar. And chic, ’cause I’m biased towards basic silhouettes of black, white and gray.

In this look, I’m wearing a printed bomber jacket over a gray crop top, leather shorts and sneaker wedges. I never really opted for accessories ’cause I think the attitude is just what it really needs.

Still inspired by the black and white party series I’ve been posting, here’s another version of the little white dress. This one is more flowy with a sexier cut that is ideal for a sophisticated lady.

I would definitely wear this dress when I want to go out dancing or for a formal occassion like a wedding or a debut maybe? It’s cut it comfy enough for you to move around in it. Used the same necklace and heels I used from my past look.

Stay tuned for more of my party looks, including hair and makeup styling inspired for parties!

To continue my black and white party series, here’s another version of a black and white ruched tube dress. I wore the same rocker bracelets from my last look and paired it with a black and gold bubble necklace.

I wore these awesome thrifted black booties to make the look more casual, rebel and comfortable. Can you imagine, I bought these boots for only 500 pesos? Haha! Never underestimate the things you find at ukay ukays.

As I always say it, it’s not about the brands. As Ralph Lauren says it, “Fashion is not necessarily about labels. It’s not about brands. It’s about something else that comes from within you.”
