3 ways to wear (Shift Dress)

Hi, loves! I am back! First of all I wanted to thank all of you who wished me luck on my last post. Just a little update about my mom, she's doing fine now. Hopefully her papers will be complete before the end of the year. If all goes well, she will be staying with me for as long as she wants.

Any how, back to the focus of this blog! Since I was absent for a long time, I decided to make it up to you guys. Here's my 3 ways (I know it's been a while since the last one). To recap, the 3 ways is about how to take a single clothing item and maximize it into 3 different outfits. This post is for some of you planning to go vacation (like me). Since I'll be going to a city, I chose a shift dress that I can layer to accommodate different types of activities I am planning to do. 

Outfit 1: Dress (out of stock) similar here Promod Skirt (Philippine brand) similar here Mango Sunnies Topshop Purse LV Sandals: Zara
First, I will probably check the local attractions. This mean lots of walking and pair of flat sandals is essential. And of course, you've got to protect those beautiful eyes from sun rays while checking out the local souvenir stores.

Outfit 2: Dress Promod Demin Vest & Purse Target Wedges similar here Mango Touch
Second, shopping, shopping and shopping did I say shopping yet? Yup, checking out the shopping places is a must :). On this one, because the dress is tiny bit body hugging, I added a denim vest and a pair of wedges to make the look casual and not too "sexy" for day time.

Outfit 3: Dress Promod Jacket (old) similar F21 Necklace flea market from Philippines Clutch DIY Shoes (old) similar here Zara
Third, of course if you're travelling with loved ones, a group of friends or, in my case, with Hubby, you have got to have a night out. To try the local restaurant, night club or whatever is the "night out" means for you. I added black jacket, black heels and because the rest of my outfit is simple I let the necklace do the statement.

There you go, one dress, 3 outfits. Remember, packing and outfit planning ahead of time is the key to making the trip easy and simple. How about you guys, how do you plan your outfits when traveling?

Thanks for visiting!

70's inspired


Hi lovelies! How are you guys doing on the second day of December? Have you done your Christmas shopping yet? I started shopping yesterday with my family. I missed black friday last week because my little one was running a fever. Fortunately, thanks to cyber monday  I did a little bit of shopping on a few online store (I ended up buying stuff for myself.. again :).) Before heading to the mall we made a stop at the park to take a few quick snaps for my OOTD. I got this inspiration when I was going through some old magazines from the 70's. So, I decided to reinvent some of the outfits I liked the most. For instance, these bell bottom jeans that I have had forever.These are one of my favorite jeans.. I call these jeans my trusty jeans, lol.

I was wearing: Sweaters- Marshalls Jeans- (old) similar here Shoes- similar here

Hello, everyone! Sorry for the looong silent here on my blog. My Husband graduated from University of Phoenix on his Masters last weekend. I was really happy that the whole family was there to support especially his parents who flew all the way from Guam to celebrate the special occasion with us.
Anyways, this is what I wore on my Hubby's graduation day. Ladies, let me tell you.. this skirt is my new ultimate favorite staple this summer! :) I think you're going to see more of this skirt in my next outfit post :D. I like how the skirt has a "flirty" flow :). Because I was wearing two patterns I add a solid color jacket and a neutral shoes to allow the visual space of my outfit to be broken up. How did you like my mixing patterns style? ;D

Thanks for visiting! Have a great weekend, everyone! Xoxo
