Nude, Pastel and Earth

I've been sporting and buying stuffs with nude and pastel colors lately. Yes, I guess I just ended my summer. Did I even have one? Well, because of the reviews and my very "strict" parents (No, they're not the traditional strict. Haha. Feel ko lang tawagin silang strict. This is because they did not allow me to have the Vacation I wanted! Huhu) my summer plans were dissolved to bits and pieces. *sigh* I'm just keeping myself positive right now cause I guess it's for the better. Chos! Well, of course it is cause it's far way less than a month to go before the judgement day (Gulp!) So going back, I was just talking about the nude and pastel colors which to sum is called "Earth Color". (Is my grammar even correct about that? Haha.) Anyway, yes, I've been having these stuffs in my closet lately and they just look so relaxing to the eyes...

Nude Nails
I choose this nail color most(75%) of the time because I could wear it anywhere. Anywhere, it is appropriate. But yes of course, the other ones still do, all colors are fun (as you can see in my Nail Dare posts) but this is just so simple that it becomes elegant in the eyes. Let's just say, it's a playsafe color. Haha. And a lot of my girl friends wear this color and all of them give the same sentiments about it. Well boo-yah! Nude nails, a-huh! :)

Nude and Pastel Clothes and Shoes
Without being so conscious about it, I've been buying clothes which were of earth colors too. I went to Forever 21 North Edsa yesterday and I went home with these clothes and I just realized the colors when I got them fitted in my room already. Okay, I am not a Fashionista and I don't know why this is even linked to the Fashion tag. Haha. But I guess the nude color is just so "in" these days. And just so you know, I tend to be so impulsive when it comes to shopping. I always get scolded because of that. A big percent of my allowance goes to my clothes but to be honest, I don't really regret having done so. And mom just kept on nagging about that then praises my clothes after. Bipolar. But I love her for that! :))

But it is just so funny at times when she herself buy us things as if the world is ending already. The flat shoes were bought by her. She bought Coleene, Nikki and I three pairs each last week. And I'll be using them for everyday purpose cause flats are comfy shoes and I love them, as proven by Shoe Confessions: I Love Flats. The Wedge Shoes was the one I used during Lady Gaga's Concert. The outlet lady picked it for me and I guess she has a good taste. And thanks to Jo for picking it as her faorite among my shoes! Hihi.

And just days ago, I just bought this Chronicle necklace from Ate Marnee's Online Accessory Shop. I guess it's a good accent to any nude clothing. :)

Nude is sexy, I guess. Cause it will emphasize any skin color and it is so pleasing to the eyes. It is so classy and could be fun at the same time. But most of all, pair it to any pastel color and you can build up a style with the fierce Earthly look. :)

Copycat Series: Spencer Hastings II

It's my second time to copy her style. And I just can't explain why I really love her wardrobe that much. All I can say is, it's classy, classic and chic. But well then, I wore this during Lady Gaga's concert, some of you might have knew it for a while because of my other posts. I just felt that I could wear this style there and I guess it ended up right. :)



Pretty Little Liars Season 2 Episode 10 "Touched By An A-ngel" featured this style and since then, I've been searching stores and outlets to have her Cut-Out Denim Polo. Based on my research, she wore Gap. I searched everywhere but I just can't find it. I even attempted to buy one during our Singapore trip but I'm just so unlucky to find nothing but plain denim polos. But too lucky for me, I found one at Jellybean just last week while I was looking for a good pair of shoes which I also wore with this polo. Just my luck! So redundant but I just felt really lucky! And here it is.




Cut-out Denim Polo from Jellybean, jeans from Forever 21, watch from Tomato, feather earrings from Bugis Singapore, wedges from Jellybean, brown sling bag from Forever 21, belt from SM Accesories

Wore wedges instead of boots because of our weather and I feel more comfortable with it. Folded my jeans 1/8 above to make it look better with the shoes. And yes, I also copied her hair. Hahaha! :)

Copycat Series: Spencer Hastings


“If you want to be successful, find someone who has achieved the results you want and copy what they do and you'll achieve the same results.” - Anthony Robins



On my Day 13 of my April Photo a Day post, I mentioned about me copying some styles of foreign film and TV characters. And I stated that I'll be starting with Rachel Berry on May. But I guess, everything went upside down. I have this white top that I bought in Singapore that looked like one of Spencer Hastings' (played by Troian Bellisario) clothes during an episode of ABC's Pretty Little Liars. Actually, it doesn't really look exactly the same with the polo she was wearing but the aura just kept on playing on the style. I tried to wear it with jeans and I was surprised to see that it looked good with it since I first wore it during a conference I went to in Singapore with slacks.


Spencer, according to my research, is wearing a polo from Urban Outfitters with a J. Crew cardigan. She had it with tights and a pair of gold flats from Dear Creatures. Her watch is from Coach. Her wardrobe on set is a simple classic preppy chic type which she really plays well. This gettie that she had on this episode was one of the simplest I've seen on her because she usually wears polo or captain trench coats or covers with boots, pretty hats and jeans. Her wardrobe is, frankly, my dream. It is vintage-ish. And she is also my favorite character in the series so it added up to make myself copy her first. Just a trivia, Troian's off-set style is similar to Spencer's and this is lifted from her on an interview.

I know Spencer has slim legs and a 0-size body so it was really tough to do this. I took the risk.  I wore it and I'm blogging about it right now. I had jeans because I am not really comfortable with tights on. I have big buns, okay whatever. Everyone knows that. Well, at least I tried. Hahaha. (Dude, it's my first time! Do forgive! Haha.) Anyway, I didn't wear a cardigan, hers was too cute to be copied. I just gave the best shot to at least copy the aim or gist of the get up. I also copied her hair, it was tough to do with mine because I have a layered hair and edges just kept on popping out from the braide while I was making it. But I guess, it still looked good though. 


So there, til the next copycat post! If you want to know more about her style, watch Pretty Little Liars, which is on vacation at the moment, and see her sense of style. Google her, it's a good idea too!


P.S. I wore it during our review class. :)
