This dress screams Dorothy! Where is my Toto? My outfit belongs at a picnic, but instead I took it to a taco shop. El Chupacabra, located on Polaris St. In Makati, is the place to find the local hipsters grubbing down on carne asada, gorditos and sweet sweet horchata. This place is pretty close to something I would get back home in LA.
Gingham is one of my favorite pinup prints, and with my white cardigan this outfit is perfect for a hot summers date.
I think I’m having an affair with the color teal. This dress is so cute with it’s polkadots and the structure of the color makes it a classic pinup look. The material is so light which is perfect for summer. My shoes are Philippine hand-made and guess for how much? Just Php 250! I did my makeup light for the day because of the insane humidity that is happening. This look is overall pretty simple.
Summer is here!
A light colored wardrobe is in play now, and with this pretty teal peplum skirt makes me feel all summery (if thats a word). I bought it back when I had big red mermaid hair, and when I would wear this…ala Ariel! The top is a china floral print in a bustier structure so it’s fun for summer and perfect for the heat. A denim jacket during the humid hell of summer? Don’t worry it’s a very light jacket and needed for when at night the summer night becomes cool and eerie.
I love sweetheart halter dresses! They are the perfect structure for a day dress. Can’t get enough of them.
A wonderful infograph showing how hair has changed over the years. Per deacade, this graph gives great examples of starlets of the era. From glamoured hair to the ‘Rachel’. An easy way to look at how our hair really is a statement.
Many many questions on how I use my curling iron, so here’s a short video on how I get my curls! Enjoy 🙂
