Style Origin 2014: Mensweek

Ayala Malls once again sets the stage for Style Origin on June 7-8, 2014 at the Centrio Mall Activity Center.

On the first day was the Mensweek. Male models parade on the runway in style featuring the latest trends from Global Filipino designers for Mensweek on June 7, 6PM. There is not much styles that I like but will featuring some standout styles that was showcase in the runway.

This top actually come with a built in bag at the back. The is see-through also. It'll be epic to see someone wearing this locally but I know most man wont dare wear so unless on the runway or pictorial.  :D

Crown.Pink.Feathers. This details shouts girl-ish style but I actually think its okay minus the crown though when worn. :D

The top is made of rubber. Guess this one is inspired from a parrot bird, very colorful. It kind of look tribal also though except for the material of the top.

This is the look I'm digging of all collections.

And yes Joseph Marco grace the runway. He wore a suit design by M Barretto.

Below are photos with fellow CDO bloggers at the event.

And the greatest shock was during the introduction of Joseph Marco because I just first heard he will be one of the lead cast of the Pinoy remake of the Korean drama Pure Love. My oh My!

Here's my outfit on the day...

Gradient Maxi Skirt

I'm inlove with maxi skirts! Ironic because before I'm always seen wearing short skirts. :D Guess, your fashion sense change as you grow
old. I do still love seeing other girls wearing short skirts and get attracted with short skirts at stores. However, its been long time since I wear short skirts and Im more excited to spend on maxi skirt and take more time thinking should I buy or not on short skirts. I guess my fashion style did changed, but im not yet ready to let go on my precious shorts skirts. :(

A lot of people love this gradient maxi skirt including myself.  Both the top and maxi skirt are bought at a thrifted shop. When it comes to shopping I consider myself lucky, because all the favorite clothes in my closet so far are bought at a very low price and/or discounted price. ^_^

National Bookstore Project Aral

Back to school is fast approaching!

My kiddo is officially enrolled and ready for the next school year. What's lacking though is the books and uniform but I'll worry on that later since school haven't started yet. Next stop is buying school supplies. It was very helpful that his teacher has already listed all the school supplies he needs at school coz it saves the time and money on shopping.



If you are going to buy school supplies at the National Bookstore, you might be interested in donating a school supplies for the children who are affected by the Typhoon Yolanda. National Bookstore Project Aral school kit includes 2 notebooks, 2 pencils, sharpener and eraser. This kit cost 25.00 (PHP). Your extra 25.00 can go a long way in helping kids in need.
