Polo Fancy

I am finding myself liking polo shirts, sheer or otherwise, with statement neckpieces these days. They are just so easy to pull off and something that anyone can wear when they are not so inspired. Nothing makes me happy than fashion that is effortless yet chic and stylish.

Here are my take on this trend:

MONOCHROMATIC

Excuse the blurred photos. Again, my mom and camera focus are yet to be acquainted. Also if it seems gloomy, it's because it is. It has been raining nonstop the past few weeks so whenever I get the chance to wear anything cute, it is so uncomfortable to take picture because of the rains.

I really love my necklace..it is a statement piece in itself and I think without it,
this will be a boring outfit 

Because of statement pieces like this, donning neutral monochromatic colors won't be that dull and boring

COLOR BLOCKING

Sheer polo shirts are also on top of my list at the moment. On its own, a sheer polo is a staple on any one's wardrobe because it can go from warm weather to colder ones. We can put a blazer over it and its a perfect office attire; take off the blazer and add some statement neckpieces and you're good to go for a night of partying. Because of its sheerness, it gives off a sexy vibe without being too showy and well, whorish. It's chic without putting much effort into it.

So far, I am also into sheer these days..hehe!

On a gloomy day like today, adding a bright colored sheer top would definitely put sunshine into anybody's mood.

Until next time and hope you all are having a great Wednesday.

Happy on Valentine's Day

Finally, I have ended my string of bitter Valentine's Days. Well, I'm still single but I don't know why I gamely faced the day without any sort of ill feeling or loathing or sarcasm about the red, the hearts and the sweet.

First, I don't know why but I feel overwhelmed with so much love and joy that I messaged my closest friends and I gamely looked at pictures of flowers and chocolates and stuffed animals and other things that would have made me barf previously.

I guess healing does come from knowing that the people who made you cry are suffering because they lost you. Now, let's not all be pretentious and deny that knowing that fact sometimes brings about our needed peace of mind.

It is only the second month of this year and already, I'm starting to feel good things coming my way. Of course, I'd have to thank the Lord for everything. I guess single or otherwise, what matters is I choose to be happy, Valentine's Day or not.

Lace, Red and Snakes

Yes, my outfit yesterday was an amalgamation of everything qualified as trendy for 2012. Haha! I went down to the city to pay some bills and breathe a different kind of air, buy some Big Bang Theory DVDs to sober up my mood.

I wore jeggings the first time yesterday. And it was also the first time I used my new found love, the Therapy Bag  I got last week. It has that awesome snakeskin print on the pockets which I think adds that 'lift' into any ordinary outfit. I mean, my jeggings and that lacey tshirt I got for the holidays was pretty boring until I added my red flats from Penshoppe and that bag.

I'm still not solid on that jeggings thing. I don't fancy anything tight, except for my minis. But well, it was a pretty lazy day so I don't care anyways...haha!

Do check out Therapy Bags for affordable and durable finds. I got an ONYX.
