DIGGING FOR TREASURE

2013-03-01T05:25:00.000-08:00

One of the reason why I engaged myself to thrift shopping is that it never fails to put a smile on my face. Even if it sucks up all the energy I have saved trying my luck to unearth a captivating and exquisite treasures hidden under a mountain or racks of second hand clothes, I will still never get tired digging.

BURST OF ORANGE

2013-02-19T00:00:00.000-08:00

Finding a tailored fit top is actually my frustration every time I go shopping either in a thrift or traditional clothing shops. So when my eyes stumbled on this orange top that is up for sale in a local mall shop, I swiped my ever reliable plastic card and brought home a citrus filled paper bag.

I find fabric fringe necklace unflattering.But when I need to cover the low neckline of my dress because I don't have any to flaunt with, this unflattering piece came to the rescue. Well, they do look good with the right combination. As what I always say, first impression never last at all.

DREAM CLOSET

2013-02-16T05:10:00.000-08:00

My closet is in a pandemonium state right now - struggling for a breathing space it enjoys once in a while. Seeing all these things inside my closet felt like everything is in chaos. I see clothes fell on the floor, pleading for its freedom from airless space. Hoarding too much clothes at a minimal space become my habit for so many years and its getting worst than I could have imagined. I need a lifetime daily dose of organizing pills.

I get inspired searching for a walk-in closet.I imagined myself looking through the freshly painted room with the much needed space I am longing for. I pulled the quirkiest knob I see -- feeling giddy looking at my clothes, shoes and accessories arranged beautifully. Sigh. I dream of having them in the near future and share it with my two boys.

I know that organizing things on premium sized space may take a lot of effort and creativity. I am not creative. But I do exert effort. Effort on a daily basis may be enough to keep me and my closet manageable.While there will be a time in my life that I will still go back to the bad habit from time to time, at least, the habit of effort is already in my bloodstream and will take charge of anything messy. Somehow, you may think that I just need a self- discipline and housekeeping skills to be organize.Yeah, I agree. But I need a little boost and remind myself all the time that I don't have any reason to mess around ;)

LEGGINGS

2013-02-11T06:33:00.000-08:00

Ladies should take precaution to first look in the mirror before dodging outside the house or you might end up prancing around the street half naked and may become the lone person in this world to activate the God-given supernatural x-ray vision of the humankind.

As fashion evolves, old time favorites like leggings, re-gain its spot in the limelight as the must-have fashion piece for the season, if not for the year. However, some women might have forgotten that some things never change. Leggings is the same old thing that clings into your body like leech and hugs body curves in perfect precision.

Leggings is meant to be worn underneath a tunic, dress, skirts or shorts .Although, I have seen a lot of high quality leggings that is thick enough to conceal the private contour like those of high end athletic brands, it is still advisable to HIDE YOUR BUTT, please.

Leggings comes in different colors and textures - plain and printed, leather and synthetic. It can go with any type of clothing like blazers, tunics, cardigan, over-sized tops, shorts, skirts, mini dresses and anything that covers the crotch area.

Leggings is a versatile and comfortable clothing piece. You can wear it almost in all occasion (except off course on event where gown rules) or even at work.With the right combination, you can transform your looks from simple to bombshell, from sporty to preppy, from classic to modern and from lady to rocker chic.

Keep in mind ladies: Don't you dare expose the camel toes.

ONE SIDED

2013-01-16T18:00:00.000-08:00

Men are often biased in their judgment on account of

their sympathy and their interests.

- George William Norris

Too often a story is examined through biased eyes,

without a sensitivity for everyone who forged it.

It's seen from the point of view of the great white savior,

and rarely is the perspective of the slave a part.

- Jeffrey Wright

The theory of cultural bias...
is the idea that a culture is based on a particular form of organization.
It can't be transplanted except to another variant of that organization.
- Mary Douglas

I know there are some polls out there saying this man has a 32% approval rating. But guys like us, we don't pay attention to the polls. We know that polls are just a collection of statistics that reflect what people are thinking in "reality." And reality has a well-known liberal bias.

- Stephen Colbert

My view is that at a younger age your optimism is more

and you have more imagination etc.

You have less bias.

- Abdul Kalam

The problem with not having a camera is that one must
trust the analysis of a reporter who's telling you
what occurred in the courtroom.
You have to take into consideration the filtering effect
of that person's own biases.

- Lance Ito

Be able to recognize when you're reading or hearing
material biased to your own side.
- Marilyn vos Savant

It is difficult to speak or write with becoming moderation or propriety,
on topics to which we are biased by prejudice,
interest, or even principle.

NOT TOO LOUD

2012-12-28T05:24:00.000-08:00

Incorporating solid colors in clashing prints would relieve someone from a painful sore in the eye. Although, invisibility on people's subjective fashion taste is impossible to achieve, at least, you can still make ways on how to pacify the fusion of the screaming print on print statement.

NEVER CHEAT

2012-12-19T19:16:00.001-08:00

I can't help myself mused over how my college friends and I hustled to the library to dig for the answers on the leaking philosophy test examination. I was thrilled and swollen with pride doing the "black deed" because I know even if it is an open book, nobody will ever get a perfect score. The semester ended with my own taste of karma, my grade almost fell into the cliff. Children, don't do this at school.

MAXI ON HEELS

2012-12-11T16:47:00.001-08:00

There are two basic things that petite women should remember in sporting a maxi skirts. One, if the skirt's length exceeds the ankle, get an instant height by wearing a pair of heels to avoid looking like a walking roll of fabric.Second, wear fitted top on loose skirt and loose top on fitted skirt. Then you can start with a varied look given the two basic tips without the grandma appeal.

CHEETAH

2012-12-10T00:00:00.000-08:00

This irregular shaped cheetah printed fabric in my neck is the weirdest piece I got in the thrift store. I am not sure of its actual purpose so I just placed it on the top of my blazer to create an exciting statement piece. I put on my brown mary janes, snatched my officemate's matching cheetah printed bag and hurried upstairs for a last minute outfit shoot.

This photo is the lone survivor in my memory card which was taken after we have took a couple of shots inside the activity room. At least, we got a good photo in a better background :)

BEHIND THAT SMILE

2012-10-15T09:26:00.000-07:00

These photos where taken when I am about to hear tribulations from a soul whose happiness is as shallow as mine. Judging a person from how you see them laugh on petty things or how they make people happy is not always a "what you see is what you get" kind of thing. You have to knock on someone's heart to see what's really inside of them. Once they let you in, you might be surprised on how they manage to put laughter onto their faces; how they seek refuge by putting smile on people's faces; how they seemed so invincible like no one can ever put their souls down. The truth is what you see with your eyes is just purely superficial. You can never tell that their heart is already hurting, bleeding and dying in pain until you let them speak their heart out. Just listen. You'll help millions of souls even without talking.

Setting aside the emotional thoughts above, pairing a basic white top with anything printed will always look perfectly. It is my first time to wear a printed cotton pants which I thought looked like a pajama.I'm glad it didn't when it is worn.

I can't resist this diamond hook earrings even it looked like a piece of aluminum dangling in my ears.

I was about to end this blog when I suddenly remembered my blog post about "which color best describe you?". I checked on the meaning of white and thought that I have picked the relevant color for this one-on-one conversation with a lonesome person. May she finds ways to start a fresh beginning and clear clutter and obstacles away as she goes on with the next day challenge of life. Chin up, girl!

MY FAVORITE PIECES OF CLOTHING

2012-10-07T23:15:00.000-07:00

The sun's arrogant rays at my window forced me to jumped out in my bed and dashed outside the room to take my weekday morning routine in five minutes. I grabbed anything light and warm, hurriedly packed my things and settled beautifully inside the car, not for work, but to educate myself on how to put on a make-up. Hence, this is my first "absent from work" outfit post. In case you may want to know, I do not tolerate myself from splurging my leave credits on personal activities except on emergency situations or when time would make it useless.

I was looking for anything light and warm to exchange blows with the sun's boiling heat. I picked out my favorite wardrobe pieces, shorts and blazer, to grant me the much needed comfort while in style. I paired it with a warm colored tank top, colored fringe necklace and flat shoes to create contrast and color.

When I received this bag as a gift for my baby boy when he turned one year old last February, my heart beat so fast because I was kind of bowl over it.The bag is screaming GOLD!! It is also very stylish, functional and sturdy. I can actually bring the whole house with me.

If I will be given a chance to create an office dress code, shorts + blazer would be the required civilian clothing on casual Fridays (dreaming).

POST DIY: FRILLY TIE-A-KNOT VINTAGE TOP

2012-10-06T23:15:00.003-07:00

Here is the scarf top I have featured in my first-ever DIY blog post here. As I what I am saying in my previous blog, this top has a fabulous fabric type and design but the style is outdated. To give the top a modern twist, I did an easy trick on the areas that needs a little improvement like tweaking the sleeves and tying the lower hem to make the top look smaller, and conceal the missing button in the lower hem.

I want to highlight the top so I wore a neutral colors like white and brown. I added a blue fringe gold necklace to complement the gold vintage button as well as to give the top a more pop of color.

I hope you like it as guys as much as I do :)

WHICH COLOR BEST DESCRIBES Y-O-U?

2012-10-03T01:53:00.000-07:00

Colors sometimes do the trick to combat weather and body temperature.People usually wear something subtle or striking when the sun is out in happiness, and dark colors when the sky is dull or weeping in sadness. Some studies also shows that colors may also relate with the person's current state of mind. Here is the list of colors and their meanings:

RED

increased enthusiasm and interest
more energy
action and confidence to go after your dreams
protection from fears and anxieties

PINK

calm feelings
to neutralize disorder
relaxation
acceptance, contentment

BROWN

a solid wholesome feeling
to blend with the background
a connection with natural earth and the stability this brings
orderliness and convention

ORANGE

to spice things up when you feel time is dragging
to become more involved in something
to increase creativity
relief from things becoming too serious

YELLOW

clarity for decision-making
relief from 'burnout', panic, nervousness, exhaustion
sharper memory and concentration skills
protection from lethargy and depression during dull weather

GREEN

a new state of balance
feel a need for change or growth
freedom to pursue new ideas
protection from fears and anxieties connected with the demands of others

BLUE

calm and relaxation to counteract chaos or agitation
to open the flow of communication
to broaden your perspective in learning new information
solitude and peace

PURPLE

to use your imagination to its fullest
to re-balance your life
to remove obstacles
to calm overactivity or to energize from depression

INDIGO

to focus on personal issues
to develop intuition
to step outside of everyday life for a new and interesting way of viewing a problem
solitude and inner communication

WHITE

to clear clutter and obstacles away
to start a fresh beginning
to bring about mental clarity
purification of thoughts or actions

GRAY

to emphasize your willingness to comply
a neutral, non-invasive feeling
to reduce the intense energy of another color
to feel detached or isolated

BLACK

to become inconspicuous
to open the door to mystery
to prepare for the unknown
a restful emptiness

GOLD

increased personal power
relaxation and enjoyment of life
good health
success

I am baffled at the fact that at my age now, my love for GOLD and ORANGE is at the highest level. How ironic that these are the colors I hated when I still in my younger years. They looked old and a show-off to me. As I grew older, my perspective in life changes and so as my favorite color, I suppose. I started doing things that I haven't done when I was young and single (Thank you discount online sites). My desire to make things happen becomes so evident especially when I got married.The desire, for example, to build a dream house, not for me, but for a young family my husband and I have started two years ago, is one of the things I am pushing to happen. That dream have emerged from the past, when I saw in my mother's eyes the yearning to own something her children might enjoy when she's gone. Before she took her last breath in 2007, she was able to pass the ball of her dreams to me and my siblings.

I have been braving both sides of the court in brisk jog until I tripped into the so-called life imperfections.Life is hard, I agree. We all wanted our life to go smoothly as we want it to be. However, disappointments along the way is inevitable. Life maybe difficult to handle but it pays off all the blood and sweat when you learn how to live your life even in just bread and water. When you still manage to crack a joke and put a smile in your face. I remembered my workmate once told me, which until now was stucked in my eardrums, "bringing up your own family is so tough that even an out of stock pantry supplies becomes so problematic." I got it. Life may become so stressful since you have to manage even the very small details of it. But that's how it is.

Life is so beautiful. Let's make life colorful by being positive and happy at all times. Personally, I think WHITE is the best primer of life.As we go on in our lives, a splash of all the colors would be great to balance everything. Well, that sounds good. A very tough one!

What are you wearing today? Did it reflect your mood and or emotions today?What's your favorite colors? Can you tell me if those color meanings listed above, to some extent, hits you on the spot?

DIY: FRILLY TIE-A-KNOT VINTAGE TOP

2012-10-02T00:38:00.001-07:00

It took me three rounds of serious thrift shop exploration before I finally submit my pocket to this grandma looking scarf top for P35 ($0.80). It's a bit weird on how I go back to the same spot where the top was hung and ran my fingers onto it thrice! I have realized, on the third time, that there so much special about this top -- the print is fabulous and the gold buttons is a simple floral stunner.

fabric design

vintage gold button

My problem now lies on two things: what will I do to give this top a modern look and how to fit-in on this roomy top without the aid of a sewing machine.

WELL, LET ME USE THIS SPACE TO FORMALLY WELCOME! YOU IN MY FIRST-EVER DO IT YOURSELF BLOG POST. Sorry I am shouting (hihihi).

We will focus on three major turn-offs of this top - flair sleeves, big size and one missing button. So what we'll do is to perform three T's - Tweak, Tug and Tie.

1) You will be needing, off course, a "granny" top and two pieces of elastics.

2.) Reverse the top exposing the thread linings. Lay the sleeves in a flat surface.

3) Tweak the longest point of the sleeves.

4) Tie the portion you gather leaving 2 inches away from the end of the sleeves (or it depends on length preferences) by using an elastic.

5) Do it on the other sleeves. Make sure that both sides have the same length.

6) Reverse the top. You'll noticed that the tweaking inside makes the sleeves frilly.

7) The last button in the lowest part of the top is missing. Tug and tie the mid-end of the top to conceal the missing button.

8) END-PRODUCT

Have you noticed that the three T's gave the old-fashion top a modern twist? I am surprised on how the actual product looked like and I am so excited to sport the top on my next post. My P35 is worth it! haha.

See you around,

WAITING, NOT IN VAIN (photos updated)

2012-09-24T01:30:00.000-07:00

We arrived at the House of Representative at 10 A.M.We had our pre-plenary hearing until 12P.M. We took our lunch, stayed in a coffee shop, and took pictures in between while we are waiting for our cue to hit the Plenary hall. The hearing started at around 7.30 P.M and ended at 8.45 P.M.We were caught in a heavy traffic due to heavy rainfall and stream of flood in the main road. I was, then, so preoccupied on the spectacle of lightning I am seeing in front of the windshield, when my tummy started screaming.We took our dinner at 11P.M and got home at 11.30 P.M. This is the longest day of my life.Wheew.

WHAT IS THE NAME OF THAT COLOR?

2012-09-23T23:55:00.000-07:00

I know it's not a big deal if I'll tell you that I am color blind.But since I already bring it up, I might as well share a little odd about myself. My eyes can actually see the color itself but my brain had a hard hard hard time telling my eyes what color is it. There's also a creepiness in it which I am quite bemused - I can see colors like periwinkle, pomelo pink, and some colors with complex color coordinates. I tried to search the internet what causes it but it only makes me more mixed-up. The only thing that is certain to me now is that I will never had a chance to drive my own car unless I ask for a medical help. Sometimes, I wish all colors will either mixed themselves together or just disappear once in a while so that I have only two colors to choose from, White and Black. But how's life without colors? Terrible, isn't it? Right now, I am enjoying a bottomless call-a friend "can you tell me what color is this?" lifeline. And I am glad, until now, they never failed to answer that old-time question.
