Barbie Saturday

It was a good day to rest from a week-long stresses...'cause it was Saturday, however, 

we were obliged to report for work, to do some cutting and cutting - literally.

But before leaving for work, I spent a little time toying my bratty Barbie (given by a friend, thanks Emely!) 

and took morning pictures with her.

I still enjoy having dolls and stuff toys on my bed, and they do sleep beside me.

I've known that there's this House of Barbie in Shanghai, China...  wish I could go there.

on me:

tiered plaid/stripe top; fuchsia pleated skirt; berry Crocs 'Cyprus' platforms bought in Singapore by sis; Cozy Balloons watch from Swatch bought in Geneva, Switzerland by sis; rainbow star bracelet

then, i decided to change my outfit, ready to accomplish my tasks.

on me:

tiered plaid/stripe top; gray shrug gift  from London; rolled-up denim; pink patent rubber Jeepman flats bought in Singapore by me; sling bag; Cozy Balloons watch from Swatch bought in Geneva, Switzerland by sis; rainbow star bracelet

Polka Dot

Polka dot, n.  design consisting of a pattern of regularly spaced circular spots

I so adore such print, on clothes mostly and I have a number of apparel with this print,

from tees to cropped hoodies to skirt, and even a pair of peep-toes.

But I most prefer the dot in white, laid on black background or vice versa.

Here are few shots with my all-time closet staple pattern: the polka dot.

on me:

Hollywood Fashion Euphoria

Celebrities do have their own fashion inclinations,

but I am drawn to some femme's taste of their fashion, 

to name a few:

the Olsen twins, Nicole Richie  and Leighton Meester

a tribute to the Olsen twins

Nicole Richie

fashionista, mother...astonishingly amazing

 

Leighton Meester

pretty face, superb taste in fashion...perfect.

so who's your Hollywood fashion icon?

Daily Servings

On regular days when I feel 'dressing-down', I prefer to be in my jeans (straight cuts and skinny) and random feminine tops. 

 Since I am quite new to this thing called blogging, I am to post pictures taken few months or few years back. Here's a peek of my daily servings of denims and tops,

pictures reflecting my C.L.E.A.N. Fashion Advocacy.

Hide that Legs, Dress-up that Body

Since my discovery with leggings, I have never stopped embracing them. 

They're so functional, giving comfort and ease in my movements. 

I wish I could wear leggings to work everyday since my job is not sedentary and I in direly need to don comfortable clothes to make it through the day. 

But sad to say, I'm stuck with no other option

but to obey company rules and wear those uniforms.

I love to pair my leggings with dress-tops or simply short dresses.
( i guess i already own a dozen of  leg-'hiders' as i call it since it basically conceals flaws in my legs)
