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:

Denim Jacket -Dotti

Tank top, Beanie, Jeans - Glassons

Astrix Boots - Topshop

Bag - Jeffrey Campbell

Little Achievements

I woke up smiling these past two days for the simplest reasons that two of my favourite stores to shop in, Glassons and WildPair, have followed me on Instagram and they reposted two of my photos on their official Instagram! Yay!!! Haha! Oh and last week, my friend Kayla tagged me with my picture on Glassons' Facebook that had been up since June (I was still using a different blog username) which I had no idea about and this instantly made me jump up and down and it truly made my day. I mainly put up this blog as I wanted to inspire people through fashion and use this as a creative space to just let all my stress out and turn my frown upside down through my number one passion...fashion! These simple achievements, as I would like to call them, make me feel that what I am doing has a purpose. Do follow me on Instagram trishworethis. 

Hope you've all had a lovely day! xx

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!

Chanel Vitalumiere Eclat Radiance Comfort Compact

The Chanel Vitalumiere Eclat Radiance Comfort Compact is uh-mazing!!! It truly does make my skin look radiant and healthy and I don’t even have to apply that much product on. I use it everyday with no liquid foundation and it just really does the job of making your skin look like it has a natural glow.

I never really cared too much about the face powder I’d use to set my foundation because I don’t really think there’s a big difference when I use it or don’t, but this face powder is so light on the skin and I cannot stress how radiant my skin really looks when I apply it. I prefer a dewy look as opposed to a matte one as well. I have a combination skin type and it just sits on my skin the whole day and surprisingly it does not make my concealer crease as I tend to have really oily eyelids. I got this when I was at the airport in Sydney on my way back to Auckland (duty free make up shopping is the best!!!) so I did get it a little bit cheaper, but I would still purchase this on a regular retail price because it is that worth it!

(Apologies for the horrible lighting)

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

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
