A Peek Inside My Bag

Hi guys! It's been a while since my last post, and since Tin is still waiting for the right time to reveal my new look, I'm going to leave you with this one. Enjoy!

It started with MTV Cribs and until now, people are interested to see what's inside celebrities' mansions, walk-in closets, and even the expensive bags that they carry around. Before I raid someone else's closet or bag, I will let you see what's inside mine. And since I share with you what's in my closet one day at a time, I will just show you my fave bag and what's inside it. *drum roll*

Sunglasses - This gold pair is my favorite because it goes well with all of my outfits. Plus I love the heavy tint for that not so good days (Boohoo!)

Checkered bandanna- This belongs to Stacy, too (grins sheepishly). I bring it every time because of its versatility. It can be a bikini top (reminds me of 1959 Barbie’s swimsuit), a belt, a headband, and a neck scarf!

“Pinoy” bracelet- This is inspired by the colors of the Philippine flag. I might not look like a Filipina (yet), but I’m proud to be owned by one. :) You might be wondering why it’s in my bag and not on my wrist. Let’s just say that I consider this bracelet as a lucky charm so even if I have to wear another bracelet to complement an outfit, I still bring this one all the time.

Yikes, only three items, but you don’t expect a lot of items to fit a doll’s tote bag, do you?:)

How about you? What’s inside your bag? :)

FABulous Outfit

My top actually belongs to Stacie, Barbie’s younger sister. This is part of her soccer uniform, and though the bottom half (black shorts) doesn’t even get passed my knees when I tried to fit it, I think this shirt fits me just fine. Why wear a kid’s shirt? This might sound hilarious, but this look is inspired by a not-so-new FAB TV commercial. If you haven’t seen it before or you’re not from the Philippines, here’s the clip:

Wearing clothes supposedly for a younger sibling fascinates me. Which unusual closets do you raid for that perfect look? :)

Fashion Inspiration: Blair Waldorf

Ruffled Top, Fashion Fever. High-waisted Skirt, Barbie. Black Gladiator-like Heels, Avic1030

This outfit is inspired by Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester) from the CW series Gossip Girl. I love how the red ribbon on the ruffles overhauled the black and white eyelet top, and how my high-waisted denim skirt toned down the dressiness of the top making my look casual cool.

Blair is my favorite character in the series because of her sense of style. She loves classic pieces, and she knows how to accessorize in order to update her look. I also noticed that she repeats some pieces, not just the accessories, but even the clothes! She gets away with being an “outfit repeater” because she knows how to mix and match them. Oh! I want to raid her closet! Hmm.. I think that just gave me an idea for my future posts. Watch out for that! :p

xoxo,
