Stripes and Overalls

Striped tops always go with overalls!

Apologies again for the poor lighting and quality of photos. I had no one to take them for me :p

Everything Will Be Alright

There was nothing to do today so my boyfriend and I had a quick drive around our suburb and found this beautiful quaint spot. Everything was so serene and it was a great place to just sit, think, and not worry about anything.

Lazzzy Monday

I spent the entire weekend catching up with friends and now I need to catch up on some sleep. I was feeling a bit lazy today but I had to help my boyfriend do some clothes shopping for his conference. He tried on so much clothes and I was running around the store getting him sizes so thank goodness I had comfy shoes on. Here's what I wore today:

Textured Cosy Cardigan

I had so much to do today and on top of that, I decided to clean out my closet and donate my pre-loved clothing to charity. I only had little time to spare and it was way too windy to get all pose-y as well and I was being blown off my balance so I just took quick outfit-of-the-day photos. The boyfriend also suggested that I looked like an ostrich with the cardigan I had on haha! Regardless, I am in love with it!

Monochrome and The Zara Skort

I know it’s a little late to be blogging about this but I was so happy when I finally got my hands on the most coveted Zara Skort I’ve been seeing in most blogs I follow. We don’t have Zara here and so I thought it was going to be impossible for me to have one, but I had an emergency flight to Manila and I put it on my agenda to go on the hunt for one.  I actually wanted to get it in two colours, black and white, but it’s a good thing practicality made its way to my undecided brain and so I chose (after a good ten minutes of debating with myself in the fitting room) to just get it in black. I love everything about it especially it’s versatility. For today i chose to put together a monochrome outfit. My camera’s battery went flat and so we used my boyfriend’s camera phone to take photos. I must say I was pretty impressed with the photo quality of Samsung Note 2, it was a life saver! Anyway, If you stumble upon The Zara Skort or something similar, don’t think twice, get one…or two! :p

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

Ripped Jeans and Chunky Boots

I was in my lovely homeland, the Philippines, and the weather was pretty warm but it was typhoon season there again. I decided to wear my chunky Spice Girls inspired lace-up boots which I got from Topshop. It’s perfect for winter here in Auckland and it was quite handy for walking the streets of Manila where rain pours like there’s no tomorrow. My ripped-knee Jamie jeans from Topshop are my current obsession, plus it gave my knees a breather in the warm weather there lol! Credits to my sister Aya (http://maanicmondays.blogspot.com/) for the photos.
