COLD AND LAYERING

It’s been awhile since i shared a blog and i really missed doing it.. these photos were taken late December 2014 isn't a long overdue post? LOL! my schedule couldn't find a good time to process the photos and put it into words.

This cute pull-over with Marsala touch gave me a warm feeling over the cold weather, i paired it with a Jogger pants to achieve a more comfortable look...

For the final touch,  i wore my Nike Air Shoes and it really gives me a feeling of walking in the air, yeah! i came up for another normcore outfit! ::)

Hope you’ll love this one!

Stay fab!

EDGY IN BLACK AND WHITE

We had an awesome photo op, for me nothing beats the weather! sunny but breezy oh! Its Christmas time undeniably!

I decided to look a bit edgy in black and white outfit, this dress is fine for the weather because of its long sleeves and thick cloth so nothing cares with the short skirt. My pointed stiletto and my studded sling bag added a glam and edgy touch to my outfit. To add some flirty look I put on my wrist a Sticker Tats.

My dear photographer is very patient and creative, as you can see she has a great eye on photography. thank you so much Mica for always bearing with me!

Oops! I also wanna share with you the beauty of “Estancia at The Capitol Commons” the venue is still under construction yet it will going to be a cozy and entertaining place to shop and relax.

RADICAL

We had a very challenging day while doing the photo op for this outfit, it rained the sky was so gloomy and it was really hard for us to capture a good photo. The call time was 8:30am andwe encountered lot of conflicts that’s why we started very late at 11:00am, we’re about to lose hope and reschedule the photo op instead, but we don’t stop hoping and praying to make Mr. Sun Smile unto us even a little.

God is so good there was a glimpse of sunshine and we didn’t waste any moment to take. Again, the concept was BLACK AND WHITE with some NORMCORE thing (Normcore is a unisexfashion trend characterized by unpretentious, average-looking clothing. The term is a portmanteau of the words "normal" and "hardcore", and was coined by K-Hole, a trend forecasting group. However, it was conflated by journalists with "Acting Basic - WIKIPEDIA).

My Striped Dress covered with a Denim Polo for Men and Combat chic shoes gives a cool and norncome style, i accessorized it with a heavy lip tint “Cherry Berry” by Avon, Cat’s eyed shaped glasses and Choker and Bracelet tats for added RAD look (Radical Cool).

How do I look loves? Hope you love the output of our photo op with full of effort and hope together with my great photographer MICA. Patience is a virtue indeed!

COMFORT AND STYLE

As I promised in my previous blog, here’s a “Black and White Collaboration in Leather.” The fabric is so soft and comfy to think that its leather, it was love at first sight the day I received the package and I felt so excited to do photo op on it.

As you can see, the Cropped top Muscle tee and the leather boxer shorts looks so refreshing and comfy which are perfect for the tropical weather that we’re into. Also, look at the Print and Style they are very minimalist and neat. COMFORTABLE AND STYLISH isn’t?

Of course!!! The other highlight of this Outfit is my worth the wait Mandals from Paylessph  my heart beat gone faster when I first saw it! LOL! Big Thanks to the influence of Normcore my life gets even easier and everything is Basically Basic- from Style to Color.  “I LOVE THE TOTAL OUTFIT PACKAGE it has the comfort and style that I’ve been wanting.”

Expect for more exciting outfit post in my next blog so please bear with me!

NORMCORE-ING

Laid-back outfit is my favorite get-up now a days, I opted to wear something neat, basic and comfortable, i’m so glad that “Normcore outfit” is trending these days, well let's admit that men’s outfit are the comfiest! You can move freely and always on the go. I love how slip-on gives comfort to my feet and its style nailed the Normcore thing, Basic tee made me look so neat, while my High-waist Jeans firmly revealed my curves LOL! it was also my first time that I wore a Beanie and it felt so cool! Aside from my POGIng watch :) my most favorite detail is my Choker Necklace with my Initial “M” because it’s my own design and I personally customized it - feeling so proud (you can also have it at my OLShop @vieshoppe)

Currently, I’m in-love with the perfect collaboration of Black and White that’s why I’m planning to do more Outfit-post in black and white ensemble, isn’t interesting? See you in my next blog-post. God bless!

IN MY BAG

This is just to blog of WHAT’S INSIDE MY BAGELLIA (BAG) hehehe I used to call it that way because I love to giving names to my things and treating them as my friends LOL!.. I just missed writing and since that I’m still not feeling well and not fit to do photo shoot for an outfit post here’s a temporary break out.

I always have my Medicine KIT in my BAG because I’m obviously very msakitin hehehe my immune system is not as normal nor as good as others have… i also have with me my life savers: Pastilles Valda Menthol candy that soothes throat whenever I have colds or tonsillitis and Katinko for migraine.

I have my Gadget back-ups with me, my SEAGATE 1tb external hard drive to where i store my thousand photos and files. My power bank to keep my gadgets alive all day, they are so essential to me because i really wanna be online 24/7.

I’m addicted with pouches, I have 4 to 5 pouches inside my bag when I was in college to keep my things organized but when my colleagues at work noticed about it and make fun of it! (yeah! its true) iI decided to lessen it for at least 2 to 3 max now, I have H&M pouch from FashionBrandforless a perfect case for my make-ups ( two shades of lipstick good for day and night mood, pressed powder, eyebrow liner and eye brow mascara- my most favorite cosmetics and eyelash mascara, those are my daily make-up) and pouch for my phone and cards. I don’t have a clutch wallet because I’m still under trauma from my hold-up experience, I preferred to use wristlet coin purse instead.  

My secondary phone is ASUS ZENFONE 5, currently the hottest phone because of its amazing features and look, and you’ll be more surprised of its price point many says ASUS made a great move in entering the world of Smartphone. 

My dual purpose pen, it has a stylus pen on the top which I basically used for my notes over my phone and tablet.

Other things like Keys and Hairbow.

Oh! well I'm very sorry for the blurred photo, i have no Photoshop with me now, so that's the actual shot.  Maybe now you're looking inside your bag and think what other else you need to bring and not to bring LOL!

Hopefully i can share with you another outfit post soon! Stay fab! Love, Mavie

WHITE ENSEMBLE

I really wanted to do this outfit ever-since when the ripped jeans became a fashion trend again, i came up with a WHITE staple then i added some black pieces, i ripped my jeans on my own and I’m very proud of how it came out LOL!.

My low-back white top complemented the roughness of my DIY ripped jeans, my small tote bag and my choker necklace help me nailed the minimalist concept of this outfit.

Another best part of this outfit is my new favorite shoes- a London flats that is super fab and stylish, worth to wear and stare because it’s very eye-catchy.

hope you’ll love the simple yet on style concept of this outfit, hoping for more to share. God bless :)

Stay fab!

EXTRA-ORDINARY LAID BACK

I'm not a fan of Jeans but i can't say no to this very stylish ripped jeans and this is so unique because it’s reversible, it has a pink color inside that you can spot on the ripped and lower folded part of the jeans (i intentionally fold the ankle part of the jeans to expose my sneaks).

I paired it with basic tee and it’s not just a basic shirt it has a crochet details on the sleeves and mini front pocket that gives a little glamour to its basic style.

Then, accessorized it with my  DIY Tricolor knotted bracelet that unexpectedly blended with my outfit, the special thing about my bracelet is that i made it with love and i personally hand-pick the color combination.

Its a package of laid back with an extra ordinary touch style...

This outfit is also perfect with our moody weather now a days, its gives a cool feeling on a sunny days and a warmth look during cloudy days.

DIM and PRINTED

During summer days I rarely wear dark colored dresses, so this is the perfect timing for something dim and printed. This simple dress delineated the natural curves of my figure, a simple pair of heels and minimal accessories finished my total look. But, if wanted to achieve a more dramatic look wear a killer heels and edgy accessories. 

This was taken at the Venice Piazza Mckinley Hill Taguig, the place is very pleasant and cozy. It was designed as a dining hotspot that offers excellent chain of restaurants with the taste of Mediterranean and European cuisine.  Try to explore the Megaworld Corporation’s properties because they offers an ambiance of leisure and grandeur.

IN SUMMER

This Summer season I’d become so in-love with striking/lively colors and this neon-orange fringe top is just perfect for my summer escapade. The Fringe-under can cover my tummy yet can show-off my (again ehem :) ) curves and cute swimmies.. The color is really eye-catchy on a sunny day and even at night because it’s actually glowing in the dark and very cool for Beach Party at night..

For my accessories I picked the Ultimate tough watch— my RED G-SHOCK- ideal for water sports activities then worn it with my floral arm candies for a lil’ girly touch..

More Summer Outfit to be posted so stay tuned loves!

Stay Fab!

MERMAID LIFE

“I have always loved the beach. The smell of the salty water, the wind in my face, the sand in my toes and the gentle roar of the waves that all combine to create a sense of peace and calm.”

Its Summer Forever with my F21 Top! Aside of wearing  it on a casual day, the Lace pattern and the back see-though details simply define my curves and my beautiful swimmies that i found it as a perfect wear at the beach too, then the color is very refreshing and summer looking, it complemented with the color of the ocean and the sky in between...

Apart from my thought of being a mermaid,  i’m also the Goddess of the Sea LOL! :) (just dreamin')..

TO GOD BE THE GLORY! for giving me the opportunity to witnessed God’s amazing creation and for providing me all the resources to make this happened (the Vacation, the Photo op, the Time and Budget, the Energy, Knowledge and Wisdom to Continue blogging and be a blessing to others (i hope so) :)
