I wore this before in an event but I wasn't able to take photos of it so I wore it again for the Ramps Crossings' show on Philippine Fashion Week Holiday 2012. But I actually change the accessories, bag and shoes to make it different.

Since it was my first time to attend a prestigious fashion event, I opted to wear black because it is the safest color and it always exudes sophistication and class.

The print of my skirt is tame enough for a formal event like this, and I used gold and white accessories to compliment the look. I was actually panicking because I wasn't able to find the perfect necklace to wear so I just wore this big earrings that I got from my friends so that it can take the attention rather than my bare neck.

Anyhow, I hope you like it!

I got this for Php700++ or less in Angelica's Closet. The owner was so nice that she gave me a 20% off discount. Yeay!

This brand caters to teens fashion needs. Though I am not a teenager anymore, I still appreciate their style. Plus, the top is really affordable. It is perfect for summer and I love its intricate details that's why I immediately bought it.

My sister and I actually got this 2 or 3 years ago from an aunt but we never used it since then. It's her first time to go out in this world this month when I wore it for a corporate look. I should have worn it sooner.

Our uncle gave this to us for no apparent reason. It was like a giveaway from him to his nieces.

These are wrapped in these cute little packages. One for each tubes. Though I actually opened the first one when I took this photo. These are in:

I have been in love with this since last year and was greatly saddened when it was sold out. But when I saw that they have it again for this season, I knew that I have to buy and grab it immediately! I got the last piece for the small size, yeay! I remember my friend told me that you should think about it for two weeks before you buy it and I was thinking about it for a year so my decision was final. :)

I was reunited with my book after a year or two because my best friend borrowed it before she left for Palawan. Now that she is back, it was her turn to lend me a great book of hers. My date of returning her book is yet to be decided. LOL.

Well, actually this is my sister's but I gave her the idea. LOL. We wanted the pink one but it was out of stock.

Freebies from the restaurant we dine at Laguna. The waiter gave us a thick pack of samples so we divided it to ourselves.

Spencer Hastings of Pretty Little Liars was wearing a similar top in one of the episodes of Season 2. I knew it when I saw it that I have to find one for myself. I was lucky to have found one in the Bench outlet store at Sta. Rosa during my post-valentine's date with friends.

It was originally around Php2,200 but I got it for only, more or less, Php895! What a great find right? Who can resist that offer? :)

I love this Maxi skirt! I knew when I saw it that I have to buy it. There were only 2 pieces left and good thing they had one in my size.

I adore the details and its print. The buttons has that classy effect. This was around P990.00 but I got a 40% off. Take note: This is brand new. I love that store I found in Makati! I will update you soon about this!

I love the smell of Vanilla or cookies and I have been looking for this ever since and thank God I finally found one!

My friend Shirleen gave this for my birthday. She told me that supposed to be it was pink but she didn't know where she placed the pink one. Haha.

This was also a gift from Shirleen because she knows that I love Hello Kitty. She made the effort to buy us "pasalubong" though she was only in Taiwan for a day to vote. Hope to go with her there on September. *Fingers crossed!!*

There are a lot of great buys in the surplus stores as long as you know where to look and you are patient in finding one. I got this only for P249.00. The fabric is actually good for a surplus buy. Just make sure to check the garment whenever you'll buy in the surplus.
