JUST LISTEN TO SOME FRANK ZAPPA AND CALM THE F*CK DOWN






(Corselette from La Magia)

Here are some pictures, because I get lovely comments when I do photo-blogs. I've been thinking about taking my film cameras out and just taking pictures of random things again outside these four walls. / I've been asked to do a Valentines outfit post and I've been looking through my wardrobe for lingerie pieces that I can integrate into my outfits without looking like a street walker. Still looking. I guess the key is to mix them with masculine trouser or loose flowing skirts. / Personally I'm pretty bah-humbug about Valentines day. Any day that I get flowers is Valentines day for me. What will you kiddos be doing on love-day? x

Here's my favourite love song - an insight to how I am when I fall in love, I guess.

Song All of Me, Billie Holiday

you remind me SO MUCH of holly golightly. plus the cat. i'm from manila, and i recently saw solenn at encore a few nights ago and she reminded me of you, which in turn, reminded me of holly.

jay - i got a little help, if you know what i mean. x

anon - “Sure. Sure. He's okay. Aren't you, Cat? Poor old Cat. Poor slob. Poor slob without a name. I don't have the right to give him one. We don't belong to each other. We just took up one day. I don't want to own anything until I find a place where me and things go together. I'm not sure where that is, but I know what it's like. It's like Tiffany's.”

thank you, what a compliment. i never saw the comparison before, but what a glamorous comparison that is.


ps: solenn is one of my best friends ever, forever.

Meloi said...

ing, i sent you an email. :) you got tired of short hair already. You look better with long locks.

Rina said...

You look so pretty! I love the corselette. :)

I love how your cat is so wide-eyed in the fourth picture. Very adorable!

Valentine's Day lands on Chinese (Lunar) New Year this time around, so it will be a day of noodles, fish and red coloured things for me.. Hahaha. :)

Have you any plans, yourself? For the 'Sunday, the 14th'? :P

april said...

that song just gave me a warm fuzzy feeling, despite the fact that i'm far from being in love
and vday is looking bleak. haha! thank you!

Jay said...

haha yeah, if i didn't know you cut your hair i would think it was your real hair. :) i've been wanting to go lighter too but i know i will get lazy and i won't wana touch up my roots when they grow =\

Christina said...

love love these pictures and the mood you've created! the one with you and the cat is just unique! gorgeous

Cz said...

I love this song. I often play it back to back with "L-O-V-E" by Nat King Cole on my ipod.

Great pictures!

roisin said...

love your hair, i would have never guessed it wasn't all yours if you hadn't of said so!

i'm curious...do you have any favorite filipino designers? i'm dyyying to go and i'm sure i will someday, but in the meantime, i would love a little taste of the philippine fashion scene! any recommendations?

meloi - you just have to reapply after drinking but this is my only trick - remember to brush your lips every night with a toothbrush to remove dead skin & apply lip balm before you sleep to keep them soft... then when you apply, apply the first coat of lipstick and kiss a tissue to take of excess lipstick, THEN apply a light coat again. This way you have 2 layers of lipstick.

If you want foolproof lipstick invest in a red MAC lipstick, i know its mahal but save up for one like our lolas did in the olden times cause the texture and hold is great. dont be ashamed to try all the reds until you find a perfect one for your skin tone. ask for help!

Rina - haha well my cute cat is my date for Valentines day. Actually, I don't really celebrate it anyways so I probably wont even notice.

April - aww, warm fuzzy feelings all around!

Jay - thanks although I am starting to realise that NATURAL IS ALWAYS BETTER :)

Christina - thank you x

CZ - will add LOVE to my playlist now.

Roisin - hmmm although the classical filipino designers are perfect for gowns and wedding dresses I think you would love the designs of Charina Sarte. They are gorgeous and glamorous and super sexy (think feathers, sequins, and sex appeal).

Jessica said...

Very pretty. I love the lingerie as an outfit.. and the gradation of the skirt is pretty too. I love purple.
