Furry Little Thing

 (NET dress, Jeffrey Campbell wedges)

Don't be deceived by my facial expressions, it was the coldest day during this trip and I had to buy leggings right after! I actually bought this entire outfit in Taipei because (as I mentioned before) I brought breezy clothes with me. I randomly went in one store looking for a black turtleneck top when I saw this dress hanging on the "sale" rack so I hurriedly went there only to find out it wasn't on sale (someone must've wanted to buy it but decided not to and hung it on a rack closest to where he/she is, which was the sale rack). As I was about to leave, I saw that the fur was detachable, and that's the end of the story. 

Oh, I would like to share that my parents took these photos. Awesome, right? 


Lastly, I'm so happy to announce that I'm a guest hurado (judge) on ABS-CBN's noontime show Showtime this week. Seriously, being in Showtime is unbelievable! I love this show so much and now I'm actually part of it. If I won't get evicted this Saturday, I'll still be a hurado next week. Here's how you can HELP. Fingers crossed! :) BMS.

Taiwan Bound

 with siblings Vince and Liz

 (Goody spin pins, SM Accessories scarf, Taipei brand oversized sweater, Cevanne bag, Luna Chic rings, Anna Sui x Hush Puppies oxfords)

So my dad told me it was going to be only a bit breezy in Taiwan so I didn't google the weather.. My bad! It was freezing cold, and even got colder and colder the next few days. Good thing I saw this oversized sweater the night while walking on the streets- it's so colorful and big, I just had to buy it. It even matched my Hermes-inspired scarf and cobalt blue oxfords as if the sweater knew I was coming!

But what I really love best about my outfit? My newly gotten Cevanne bag. When you travel, you always bring a big bag because you take everything with you (passport, a nice book, your ipad, gadgets, make up, etc), but when you're actually at your destination, it's such a hassle to bring a huge bag because it's so heavy you'll feel like you're shoulders are gonna break. Good thing I brought this with me. It's so fashionably light and it's the perfect color because you can match it easily with your outfits. It can be a sling bag during the day and a chic clutch during nighttime. I think I'm beginning to fall in love with envelope clutches again.
