Finding myself.

Oh hi everyone! It's been quite a while since my last entry and yes, I think it's beginning to be a habit of mine to start a blog and eventually forget that I have one. :p

I wanted to tell everyone the true story why I kind of shut the world down for the past 3 months but I think I'm just not ready to admit it to myself yet. All I can say is I have been through hell and still finding my way back. But I'm getting there.

But nevertheless, no matter how tough it is that you're going through, ALWAYS look your best! cause you'll never know when you'll bump into the man of your dreams. Right? :)

Here's a compilation of my photos for the past few months. Credits to my Instagram account.

Sometimes all you have to do is forget what you feel and remember what you deserve.

Sending my online hugs and kisses to you,

All "plum"ed up!

I'm sure I've lost lots of readers because of my unavailability and most specially lack of posts and updates. Truly sorry about that but I just can't seem to find time to blog until now.

Today since I got nothing to do and I finally got a hold of my own laptop (which I haven't for months) I can finally post one of my ootds when I was still in Singapore.

It was a sunny yet breezy day in the beautiful streets of Orchard. As much as I love this place, I am totally inlove with my black peplum blazer! I think it's best if you're going for that feminine business casual look. Don't you think?

I  looove to play with my peplum tops like this! Hihi :)

 I just wore a black lace top underneath it just to make a cute detail and paired it of with comfy jeans. To finish the look off, I used my leopard print black sling bag which is now one of my favorite bags!  Since animal prints are so "in" nowadays, I thought it's a must have to every girl's closet.

So, what do you think? I'd love to read some comments or suggestions about my look!

Thanks for reading!! Have an awesome day fellow bloggers!

See you soon, Philippines! Hello, Singapore!

It has been almost a month, i think, when I last posted here. I'm sorry about that. I got so busy about getting my license, arranging important papers and documents, meeting up with my best friends and just trying to sink it all in my system that I'm leaving home to go to Singapore and try my luck there.

Yes, I am now living in Singapore with my sister and her boyfriend. Looking for a job! Anyone reading this who lives in SG, you guys might want to help me get one? It would be so kind if you do. :) And plus, I'm also hoping I get to find new friends as well with same interests as mine and maybe hang out sometime! That would be fun!

Anyway, this is what I wore the day I left my fave country in the world, the Philippines. (ehem, nationalistic much? hihi )

I decided to wear something breezy because I knew it would be a sunny day in Singapore. I'm a big, big fan of laces! It just gives me that old, classy, feminine vibe. I got this lace top from Forever 21 for a very cheap price, only P600! Then I paired it with my newest favorite, my floral printed jeans! Don't you think it's very pretty? I was love strucked when I saw this and immediately bought it! Floral prints are really trendy and I think you can style it in so many ways. You can dress it up or down depending on your mood so it's really a must have and an awesome piece to have! 

 Just before I left, I bought a new pair of heels. It's actually a jelly heels (that's what I call it). It's incredibly comfortable compared to other heels. I can wear them for hours and have no blisters at the end of the day! Good stuff huh? I recommend wearing this if you wanna go out and have a long walk or trip outside. It's very stylish and comfy! You'll love it! Got this one from a bazaar, so it's very cheap as well.

Since I'll always be miles apart from my boyfriend, I decided to always wear this personalized "himig" bracelet. So I'd always feel like his there holding my hand wherever I go..

So that's about my outfit that day. What do you think? I would love to know your opinions so hit that comment button dear reader. And btw, thanks a lot for reading my post! Have a great day!

Too School for Cool

I love wearing school uniforms! Probably because of the pleated skirts and girly bows. Ever since I graduated, I miss wearing my old uniform. This outfit is inspired by that thought, so I went for the "school girl" look.

I got my white long sleeved sheer top with collars at a thrift store. It's actually still in good condition and got it in a very cheap price, only P50.00 (or almost 2USD). I paired it with a sheer polka dot navy blue pleated skirt I bought from Forever 21. I just love how the details of my top match my skirt.

Cute light blue satchel bag from Cole Vintage.

I'm more of a "flats" person than heels. One of my absolute favorites is this yellow doll shoes with cute little bows. This one I got from a bazaar again, talk about awesome cheap finds.

So that's about my look today. Hope you liked it just as much as I do.

I would love to know what you think so hit that comment button!

Daddy's Girl

Every tuesday, me and my dad go out for a mini date. We watch a movie together and this was my outfit that day. 

Someone asked me once why I always take pictures at home, and I thought I'll just share my answer to you guys as well. I usually take pictures the night before I wear them out for two main reasons: 1.) I wanna see how it looks on me. 2.) I really don't have time to take pictures of my outfit when I'm already out with someone. (expcept when I'm with my boyfriend because he sometimes takes pictures of me) I just don't wanna waste time I could spend with whoever I am with and so I take pictures in advance.

About my look, my heather gray sleeveless top is from a store in Singapore again. It's actually a cropped top but you can't see it because I wore a high waisted violet lace skirt. 

I added some black ensembles too which i think made this look more chic!  My black beaded necklace and owl ring were hand-me-downs from my older sister. The wing ring and heart connector ring is from an online store here in the Philippines. And the black woven leather personalized charm bracelet is from a bazaar.

Lastly, I decided to finish the look with these cute gladiator sandals that match the color of my top.

That's it about my look! So what do you think about it? Hope you liked it! 

But before I end this post, I would just like to share with you that I've achieved one of the things on my "Wish list" and that is to "Reach 50 followers" last night. I'm really thankful for all my new sweet followers! I had this idea running on my mind over and over last night and so I'm doing it today.

I'm giving my 50th follower, Lara Takashi an award. I hope you'll like this award I made for you! Thank you so much! (you can put it up on your blog if you want to)

And to anyone reading this, you might wanna follow her too! She's really sweet and a great follower and an awesome blogger as well.

So that's about it, another award will be given to my 100th follower! (I hope so) 

Thank you for reading love!

Owl always love you!

Ever since I got addicted to Tumblr and We heart it, I started to have an obsession with owls! I collect items from clothings, accessories, ballpens, notebooks etc. I think they're just sooo adorable! I love their cute big eyes the most! 

Here's one of my favorite owl tops I got from when I was back in Singapore for a vacation. It was from a bazaar so I got it at a really cheap price! Talk about great finds, huh! :)

It's a long sleeved blouse. The owls are actually handmade with sparkly sequins! If you look closer, you can actually see it shining on my face. Haha!

 I paired this top with a pleated skirt that has heart shaped leopard prints. I got this skirt from Pop Culture, a store here in the Philippines. I got it on sale so it's another cheap find! I don't really buy expensive clothes because I always find things similar to what I want with a lot more cheaper price. 

I just love satchel bags! I think you can pair them with any kind of look you're trying to achieve. I bought this brown leather satchel bag years ago from a bazaar again here in the Philippines. It's really durable and easy to clean unlike my other bags. It's a cute backpack that I used to bring with me when I was still studying.

For my accessories, I chose a white star connector ring and a bronze heart shaped key ring. These cute connector rings were bought from an online store of a friend.

Who else loves owls? :) 

Hope you enjoyed reading and liked this outfit post! 

Let me know what you think about my look or give any suggestion.

I would love to know what's in your mind.

Mint Bubble Gum

Hi guys! I would like to share this look of mine a month ago. I was going out with my best friends that day. It was a bit hot and sunny outside so I decided to wear something really comfortable and breezy.

I love this pastel pink top I got from a store called "Pop Culture" at Trinoma (I'm from the Philippines btw). What really made me love this is its peter pan lace collar with heart buttons and the lace details. Since my top already has a lot going on with it, I decided not to wear a necklace anymore to draw the attention to it's design. I paired this bubble gum top with a very cute sheer pastel blue pleated skirt. And I just love how the colors matched beautifully. Don't you think? I also added an animal printed ribbon belt. 

For my bag, I chose this burnt orange satchel I got. I'm really into satchels right now, I got inspired by my older sister who also loves them. 

I really think it looked so girly and feminine altogether. Plus, I you just love pastels and color blocking! I would love to know what you think about this look too so hit that comment button. Ya? :)

You can vote for this look on my chictopia here at Stars and Stitches as well if you have one, and don't forget to leave a comment if you're following so I can follow back and return some love to you too.

Oh hello there, love!

Welcome to my first fashion blog ever! I have been blogging since I was in middle school about my personal life but I just recently got addicted again to fashion blogging and had this crazy ideas I would love to put up if I have a fashion blog. So after weeks of thinking about it, I finally created one!

What will you, my future readers, be expectecting on my blog? 
There are a couple of things I would love to do here and I made a short list (temporary) on what to expect here:
1. I will be posting my "ootd"s that I normally just post in my Chictopia account here: starsandstitches
2. Every friday, I will choose a blog (of one of my followers) to be featured here. You can always comment on my posts if you want your blog to be featured.
3.  Tutorials! As much as I love reading about fashion tutorials, I would also love to share them to you.

That's probably what, mostly, my blog would be about.
Hope you'll love my new blog!

Sending my online kisses and hugs to you,

♥ M.
