Tweed and Traipsing in the Park

The sun has finally decided to come out of hiding after weeks of yucky rainfall…and hail! On good winter days like these, I just want to enjoy the weather and stay outdoors until the sun sets. It gets pretty depressing being cooped up in an apartment where all I see is the facade of adjacent buildings and no natural light coming in. Also, I’ve recently been reading up about fashion during the 1940′s and so for today, I have put together an outfit that is just a wee bit reminiscent of that decade. Lots of browns and red or coral lips were worn by the ladies during that time.

Hope you’ve all had a lovely day! xx

Manila Haul!

We don’t really have a variety of clothing brands here in Auckland, so every time I come home to Manila, I sort of go crazy…well, okay I begin to spaz at the mere sight of a mall and then go totally crazy and shop until I’ve literally entered the shops twice in one day to make sure I haven’t missed out on anything worth buying lol! Manila has become such a shopping haven already with so many clothing stores opening here and there. One that just recently opened when I was there was a Spanish brand called Suite Blanco at the SM Aura Mall and I loved all their stuff, plus the prices were pretty reasonable too. Everyone that loves a carefree urban chic outfit must go and check it out! I went to my usual stops, Topshop and Zara, and there was never a time that I left both stores empty handed. There is always something to buy in Topshop and Zara haha! I also went on a little splurge and treated myself to a neat pair of Celine sunglasses which I have been wanting for such a long time and my oh so fabulous mom got me a cute Kate Spade satchel which I adore so much! I can’t wait to share ootd posts again!

Gonna start saving up again now.

‘Til next time!

See ya! xx
