I have always loved out-of-the-town trips. Well, who doesn't anyway? Everybody deserves a break from all the stresses here in the city--and with that said, I am sharing my weekender bag!! Yes, I, too, have plans of relaxing and bonding with my family. Hopefully, this will push through!! Okay, so going back, I chose colorful hues with touches of gold as my (for lack of a better term) "theme". I believe that dressing up as bright as the sun would eventually light up the day more. Not to mention how it attracts positive vibes, too! Of course, don't forget to bring essentials like sunglasses to protect your eyes and for that instant vavavoom look!

Stop Pretending And Start Living

H&M statement shirt | Style Hub shorts (via ZALORA) | Topshop boho bag | Suede boots (Tin Iglesias)

Have you ever asked yourself... am I living? Or am I just pretending? As we all know, life is beyond priceless. You only live once... well, we all do. So, why not just be yourself? Why pretend? Life is not about pleasing everyone--make a difference. It's not about fitting in... but standing out. Life is just too short, too short. As much as possible, live a day as if it's your last because every second is worth-living.

I know, I, too, can sense "drama vibes" as I am writing this post. Maybe, this has got to do with my condition. Hmm, that's what I think. I am sorry for being too serious (okay, dramatic it is! lol). Just kidding! Of course, I don't want to end this post in this manner (where I am being too emotional or something). Time to shift! Hahaha! Yes, let go on to the look! :)

This was my outfit (sans the shorts and boots, for I was in pants and comfy flats) last Saturday where I had an appointment with my doctor. After the checkup, I went with my aunts to the mall (yes, changed into shorts and boots!). At first, I thought that the shirt and the shorts won't go well together. But, boom! they surprisingly complemented each other. I love the geometric design of my shorts. It makes me think of Balenciaga!! Donned my lovely boho bag and edgy boots... and I was all set! :) (Sorry for being barefaced!)

Live Each Day As If It Is Your Last

ZARA graphic tee | E-vie skirt | Blue Zoo animal print boots | Topshop peacock feather earrings, and wooden bangles | 

Aldo colorful stacked bracelets | Naturalizer bag

Can you just feel the bohemian vibe? I bet you do! I opted to be in a comfort dressing and give my feet a rest for a while. I really miss taking my flats out for a spin. Anyway, don't you love the print of my shirt?! I am totally on the lookout for more picture/painting-like (or whatever they call it) prints!! My skirt added funkiness to the entire look as well as my earrings! Yes, I did accessorize (but not too much) to complete the outfit. Forgive me for using this bag again!! I know you had seen this on most of my looks. It's one of those abused ones because I can stack anything here!! Braved using these booties to sprinkle character all over.

A Fashion Must Have: Studded Brogues

Folded & Hung studded brogues

Brogues are still fashionable as ever. They may be flats but don't be fooled! They create an undeniable impact to the entire outfit. This pair of brogues is my latest fashion pick at ZALORA.

Nothing's Gonna Change My World

Topshop shirt | Topshop eyelet skirt | Red Herring socks | Sole Service boat shoes | Barbie hat

This has got to be my most carefree look yet. I really love twirling and spinning in this cute skirt!! And the wind also joined in the fun too! Hahahaha! lol I wore this to Zes' (a good good friend) debut celebration. The theme was children's wear and this was my interpretation. The top and the skirt were cohesive because of their designs--both with circles. To add more playfulness to the outfit, I went for a pair of graphic socks and had these boat shoes (which I had won in Alyssa Lapid's giveaway) on.
