Chambray & Leather

This is me the night of the Cosmo Bachelor Bash. A fresh haircut, a new camera and a chambray shirt I had just bought in Hong Kong that had yet to be worn. I took out my black (faux) leather mini and trusty red Stella Luna stilettos. Four inches without the benefit of a platform [...]

Love for Jenny Packham

I have been obsessed with shine and beadwork for quite a while now. If it’s sequined, crystal-encrusted or just generally sparkly, then I want it. Which is why I have a deep and abiding love for Jenny Packham’s Spring 2011 collection (not so much the 2012, felt a little blah to me).     Clearly, [...]

Prints love!

I am a lover of classics and elegance.  Dresses that drape perfectly, sinuous lines, monochromatic tones in beautiful cuts that still manage to exude drama and confidence. But the summer girl in me is drawn by bright colors and beautiful prints.  Prints, when done right, are elegant, sophisticated and fun all at the same time. [...]

Beach Prep!

While I haven’t yet decided on where to go for my Mental Health Weekend, I’ve decided to, in the meantime, join a friend of mine in Boracay next weekend! Mostly because I really, really want to wear these beauties from Soak Swimwear: Other than exercise clothes (Nike is no friend of my wallet), I’ve found [...]

Lanvin for H&M

After desperately thinking up ways to be in Hong Kong in time for the Lanvin for H&M launch, I have calmed down somewhat, enough for my rational side to kick in. No Tiffy, going on leave to fly to Hong Kong and queue for hours for a 15-minute (yes, H&M says you only get 15 minutes to [...]

In search of a wedding outfit

I’m attending a wedding on the 30th and my fashion sense is failing me.  I have no idea what to wear. I have a dress, the same lovely shade above, but alas, no silver stilettos in sight. A little help? *Outfits above by Kristen Nichols.

New Girl Crush: Olivia Palermo

I know she’s not exactly all sunshine and daisies in The City (who wants sunshine and daisies anyway?) and I am among those who marvel at her inadequacies on the job and inability to just get along with other people. But oh my, she’s ridiculously goodlooking and no one, I mean NO ONE, can deny [...]

Brogues…again.

So I saw this photo of the London Brogues by Anthology. I couldn’t stop laughing hehe. They’re great and all but I remember having the exact same pair when I was a geeky grade school-er with braces and glasses.  I’d wear them with my white socks and school uniform and they ended up all scuffed [...]

Weekend Love

I love weekends. You can be as self-indulgent as you can be and not feel an ounce of guilt because the week was long, you worked hard, and you deserve it! Weekends are also the only chance I get to wear whatever I want.  Lawyers don’t exactly come to work in sneakers or breezy summer [...]

A little blogger love

Okay. Sorry Jane, but what were you thinking? It’s not completely awful, but Jane dearest, this clearly isn’t you at your best. Now, THESE on the other hand…these are exactly the sort of outfits that make me fall in love with you over and over again (total girl crush people!) Wearing vintage velvet Yves Saint [...]
