FASHION FOR SALE!

Hey guys! 
So I decided to take business a shot since I have a lot of free time this semester.
I am currently selling these clothes which I also modeled and styled. 
See, I  am so bored with my life, I have to complicate it. Haha.

Okay, enough nonsense talk and let's get down with business.

To begin with the first item:
I stumbled upon this photo on the web. 

Made it  my peg and so I came up with this look:

Cream colored top only for P450.00
.*Shorts are not for sale.

PEG:
Jessica Stein of  TUULA

 Orange Jumpsuit with ruffle details only for P650.00
*Shoes not for sale
(I wore a blue-green version of this jumpsuit in this post)



Blue lace dress with see-through sleeves only for P550.00
*Shoes not for sale
This dress looks way more flattering to girls with curves. :)



Black and white studded dress only for P450.00
That sexy dress perfect for a night out or a dressy event. :)



These clothes are all brand-new. Not pre-loved or vintage. :)

NISE @19 A DRESS UP PARTY


The fashion show-inspired party of my friend Nise/Toni which I was talking about in my previous posts, happened last November 2, 2012. The exact date of her birthday.
 This special undertaking, I would say, is in the run for one of my most memorable experiences for this year.  To walk in a runway in a room packed with people is such an exhilarating experience and what made it more special was that my Mom and brother were there to watch me. :)
So, here's what I wore for the Dark Rebel Collection:
Next was the Delight in White Collection. I was inspired to don a dress because the fascinator/hat was already provided. British Royal Wedding was the peg I guess. Haha.

Chic Cheapskate Confession Alert:  Bought this cream white lace dress at a thrift shop for only P80.00!
The next collection was the Victoria's Secret inspired collection named Color Fantasy. This was my favorite part cause we got to wear WINGS!!!
And lastly was the Nise Collection. The Nise Collection composed of dresses and gowns Nise had previously worn. Her mom, Tita Rossana designed every dress and gown. She's such an artistic soul! The gowns and cocktail dresses were really beautiful and elegant.
Mine was a mullet gown. I loved it! I love the train detail at the back ;) 
Though I guess the photo did not do justice or maybe it was me. Haha. I think I walked too fast cause I was so nervous every round.
And of course my good friend, the birthday girl in her beautiful Black Swan-inspired gown designed  of course by her mom, Tita Neng:

We danced Oppa Gangnam Style together to end the show. The party was really fun  but the after-party was much much more fun! We danced all-night and availed the dance floor all the way! Such a memorable party, not to mention very lavish.


Thank you again Tita Neng and Toni!!

BREAKING DAWN


Watched Breaking Dawn 2 last weekend with friends. And I know this post is some kind of late but aww, I just still couldn't hide my utter amazement with the movie!!!! I remember, after I read the book I was a bit disappointed because even though it was a happy ending, it lacks some action. But the movie totally makes up for it!

You'll know a movie is so great when you just can't spoil it. So yeah, I am convincing you instead to go and watch it, to see for yourselves how awesome and truly epic the ending of The Twilight Saga is!
IF! You haven't seen it yet. ;)


 And here's what I wore:


Borrowed my Mom's ultra comfy black & white striped-tee. :)


Bag, skirt and sandals: All Department Store finds


Thank you to my ish, Kristine Acharon for the photos!
(Check out her lovely blog! ♥ )

 Got this beautiful orange flowery-printed, butterfly-sleeved top for only P99.00 at SM Department Store!

Phew! That is such a long description for an article of clothing bought at such a cheap price. Haha. Wore this last Wednesday at school for Wash Day.


Just a quick post!

SHOW AND TELL

I think everyone just loves scoring a cheap awesome fashion find. Personally, I love telling my gal pals on how I scored a cute top or a nice bag for a price much much less. Don't you think? 

Well then if you think so too, continue reading for I am about to blog and brag about my cheapest fashion finds!



So let's start with...


This tattered shorts I got only for P75.00 at a thrift shop in Davao. This is probably my most used and abused shorts since I can pair it just with anything. Needless to ask, denim is just so versatile, don't you think?


This pair of khaki shorts belong to my brother when he was still a little kid. Found it while I was rummaging in his closet.


 When worn, this becomes a high-waist shorts on me. I fold the hem to style it a little.


But the interesting part is that, when you look closely near the pocket, you'll see a BSP (Boy Scout of the Philippines) logo. Haha. See, all you need is a little imagination! When I wear this pair I tell people "Hey these are my brother's Boy Scout shorts!". Haha.


My sister bought this purple polo for me when she had thrift shopping with her friends. 
Guess what, this only costs P15.00! 


 The flowery print when you look closer.


Ah, this yellow sheer polo shirt  is probably my most favorite item in my closet because whenever I wear it, modesty aside, people always compliment it and yellow is my favorite color by the way. Hehe. When worn it is actually see-through so I wear it with a black camisole. My sister also gave this to me along with the purple polo above, and well, this costs only P15.00 too! 


Bright pink top scored at the local department store!


 Bags. The blue sling bag was my Mom's birthday gift to me. I use it whenever I'm out for a casual stroll with friends or whenever I'm doing errands. The sequined one - which can also be used as a clutch - is my go-to bag whenever there are formal occasions in school or whenever I'm attending a party. And lastly, the brown envelope clutch. I use it in school when I don't have to carry big books with me or sometimes I use it as a bag organizer.


 Belts can be useful accessories especially since in my university we observe a strict dress code. So my fashion choices constantly revolves in jeans and pants during Washday. So these cute belts really help in adding a dash color to a rather plain t-shirt and jeans ensemble. Each costs P60.00 and below! The yellow one with the bow tie is my most favorite.


How about you? What are the cheapest fashion finds you have in your closet?
