Bright style. It will always be fun, quirky, and full of patterns. I cannot NOT be colorful. I feel incomplete without bursts of colors.
Online shopping. Because there's not much outlet stores here in our province, I usually shop online. I prefer local boutiques as well, to spare myself from shipping fees. For shoes, I consider Asian Vogue as my number one shoe authority.
Style icons. I especially love Laureen Uy and Kookie Buhain's adventurous style. They always achieve the perfect balance between girly-ness, edge, and punk. My international style icon is Flavia Desgranges Van Der Linden of fashioncoolture.com.br. Her style is very achievable and I love her hair!
Maternal influence. My mom influences my style a lot! I grew up watching her dress up and change outfits from day-to-day. It's interesting though that at present, it's already me who influences her style. I love borrowing and trading outfits with her.
Colorful closet. There's no dominant color in my closet. I adore bright colors and prints. Brown, black, and white are the colors I own the least.
Must-have. Thick, vintage bangles - they go along with any outfit and give me that instant bohemian feel. For colorful accessories, Bubbles necklaces are my favorite.
Never ever. Tops with plunging necklines! I have been exploring various trends but I always try my best to be as wholesome as I can. I believe that being sexy doesn't always mean showing too much skin.
Trendy rebirth. Balloon skirts with petticoats underneath! I would love to make a little twist by wearing them with bright pieces.
Steal purchase. Leather pants for P50 from a thrift shop! I've been eyeing an almost similar pair from People are People a week before that, so I was very grateful that I didn't buy them on impulse. Imagine how much I have saved!
Grandma's vintage. A black, knitted cardigan from my grandma. I never fail to receive compliments whenever I wear it. It's more than 20 years old and it's handmade!
