dress from Forever 21 (SM Aura); bag from Michikoshoppes; shoes from Celine
necklace: Accessorize; bracelet: Envy at Watsons; watch: Guess

I love the rain, I really do. But I wish that it's always Spring. So last Saturday, when I saw the sun shining bright, I remember having this dress and I thought it paired well for what I was about to do that day. To enjoy a relaxing afternoon and meet my ultimate favorite actress. :)

It was that kind of outfit that I thought was so put together that I had to take a picture of it. Sarah of FashionEgglplant came to the rescue and agreed to take my outfit shot. I was so conscious! I didn't know what to do that I made a blunder of it half the time. Thank God, she was a good photographer and we got a few good shots. I guess I'm still not that confident in posing for OOTD photos. Must practice!


I like big bags that I can carry my whole life in! This blush tote bag from Michikoshoppes, can carry all my gadgets (including my Dslr) along with all my beauty products and other bag essentials. It's an ideal office bag since it can fit my laptop, too. And it comes in a lot of shades.

Thanks, Sarah, for taking my photos!

After a meeting at a prestige car showroom in EDSA, I decided to go to Megamall. After all, I was already dealing with the horrible traffic... Why not go all out and head on to one of the most visited mall in the city? Thankfully though, getting to Megamall didn't take that long coming from EDSA cor Ortigas. Got there in less than 30 minutes.

And oohhh!! I was able to get into the right lane of EDSA, to the left lane! One of the things I was scared of because of all the buses and the aggressive drivers!

Parking wasn't a pain to look for either.. Though i hate it when the carwash boys help me park when i don't need them and even if I tell them I'm okay they don't budge and you still end up having to give them a tip. Only in the Philippines... Hai.

I first headed to St. Francis Square to look for a nice iPad Case and i did find one but I will not be posting it here because it's an imitation of a really popular casing and i feel bad posting it here. But I was desperate to gt my iPad into a thinner case without breaking the bank. I can't justify buying a Php1 to 3,000 worth of iPad case at this point.

But the same can't be said for makeup and shoes. Look what I came home with last night. :)

\
Got these gorgeous pair for only Php1199!

I was about to splurge on a pair of nude pumps from Nine West. But knowing that there are a lot of shoe store that merits checking out, I didn't buy what I was eyeing for there. So I headed to SM Department Store. That wasn't successful though. I didn't like anything there. At a whim, I went to Celine after seeing their Big Php500 off SALE Sign. I immediately gravitated to these pair. A taupe patent peeptoes that will go well with all of my work clothes and then some.

Yes! I got both! :)

I was at FOREVER 21 before hitting up Watsons but somehow i came out of it empty-handed. Clothes there got so expensive. Gone are the days I would purchase a Php500 cotton dress or a Php450 legging. Everything there now are Pho600 and up. Not within my budget range for clothing.

For makeup though, it's a whole different ball game. I didn't bat an eyelash at getting the two shade of Majolica Majorca Brow and Lash Colorist, their brow set mascaras. It's my HG Brow Set.for years, I've been a loyal MAC Girl Boy brow set loyalist but Not anymore. I love MJ's version. :)


And look what I got at St. Francis Square! A new iPhone case.

I was never really interested with hard plastic casings. I like them easy to remove in case I need to charge them with my extra battery pack. But I fell in love with the mint casing and the sakura tree and cute character. I went back a few time at the store just to check it out and i finally gave in. Lol. Isn't pretty. :)
That's it for my latest haul! See in a jiff!

Oh! Who's going to the Krave Minerale Event today? Hope to see you there!

September 16, 2010, Megamall - Right after an event, I immediately went to Megmall to pick up a pair of boots that I saw a week before at Forever. I'm so glad that they still have it in size 6. :)


London Button Booties.

Isn't it gorgeous?? I just love love this.. I have no idea where I'm going to wear this really... but I know its a pair that I will always always love. :)







I love that you can wear the top folded or not. :) Gives a bit of diversity to the boots and allows you to play it out with your clothes. :)

And look below? I tweeted a few days back before my birthday that I wanted a blue suede peeptoes. It wasn't a peeptoe though but pumps.. who cares! It's blue!! Finally!! It was like a miracle when I saw this at Forever 21 for only Php915!! ($20) :)


It's a good thing I held off buying a pair that costs 300X more than what I paid for this one.



and it comes in other colors like red, brown, etc. :)



But the blue, i think, is the best of them all... :)


I just love cobalt blue!!

A friend told me to check out Celine because they have nice wedge shoe collection. I love my So! Fab grey wedge a lot and it's what I wear the most for events because its so comfortable.. That's what I love about wedgies and espadrilles, the way it supports flat-footed chicks like me. :)

I'm glad I found this pair.


It really looks similar to my So! Fab metallic wedge platforms but this one...


has blings on it I can't get over. It's really me! :)


I'm glad I can let my So! Fab shoes rest for a bit because of this pair. :)


Now, isn't this more stylish for events and parties?



I'm pretty simple when it comes to choosing my shoes.. they all have to match at least 30% of my clothes, must be affordable and something I won't be afraid to use 2 or 3 years down the road. I'm particular to creams, whites, grays rather than blacks (maybe all those years of wearing black shoes in school made me want to own other colors). I like something that can match many of my outfits. The shoes above are exactly those. :) stylish and pretty much... me. :)

Although I've been daring myself to go out of the box when it comes to my fashion choices, I still think that I'll always be the simple girl in shirt, jeans and flipflops. :)

much love,
Shen
