Wore this ensemble last Saturday. 
I know, I know. Wearing a blazer during the so-called "beach weather" is probably not the best idea. Yes, I could've just worn the floral top inside the lace blazer. However, I don't wanna break the dress code in Church. Call me a strict rule follower but that's just the way I am. Won't change myself just because of some weather conditions.

What do you guys think about following the dress code in Church? When do you think it's okay to break them? Share your thoughts!

Pastel Palette

Today marks my last 'first' day in college. 
I was positive that there wouldn't be much traffic in the metro. To my surprise, it was so traffic in the Katipunan-Libis area! I ended up being awfully late for class so I had to grab a chair from the next room because the room was full and all chairs were already occupied. It was embarrassing enough that people were staring but to make matters worse, the chair was big and heavy so it kept on bumping into the other chairs thus making loud noises. Oh gosh, I learned my lesson the hard way. Never assume that there's no traffic in Manila! Do you have embarrassing entrances too?
And what do you guys think of wearing pastels in the summer? Leave a comment and let me know!

Ikat Print

| Dress & Cardigan: Forever21| Bag: Accessorize | Shoes: Janilyn | 

Today is the mark of my parents' 23rd wedding anniversary and we decided to celebrate it at Tagaytay!  

I just wore a simple ikat printed dress and a cardigan. I made sure to wear a cover up to cope up with the sweater weather in Tagaytay. I'm definitely loving the weather up there! I actually wished Manila has that weather too just so I can always wear a hoodie or a cardigan anytime I want. Easy breezy, eh? 

I hope you guys had a lovely Sunday with your family too!

Double Check if You Must!

It sucks when you receive an unexpected amount in your phone bill. 

I think everyone can relate to me when I say it's even worse when mobile carrier companies are billing you incorrectly. My phone bill came a few days back and I discovered that they are billing me twice for my internet usage! No, I'm not trying to rant. I'm just saying that it really pays to double check your billing statement, ladies and gents. Although companies have an automated system, things CAN still go wrong. Wondering what's the connection with the outfit photo? Well, this what I wore today while I was falling in line at the service center. And I really do hope this doesn't happen again or else...I might really consider on switching to a new mobile carrier. 

Hmm is it really time to change?

Mixing Floral and Lace

Went to Eastwood last Sunday to celebrate Father's Day and boy, the place was jampacked! But don't get me wrong, it was a beautiful scene to watch: families eating out together, children and wives  treating their daddies and husbands out.

I remember seeing a kid in a batman costume and realized how his fall mishap made my day. He fell on his butt and didn't know what to react. The dad hurriedly comforted the kid and told him it's totally okay. Guess what happened next? They gave each other a high five! How cute. :">

Fortune Teller

I look like a fortune teller. 

Well if I don't look like one, the turban makes me believe that I do. Blame the turban! 

This is what I wore on the drive home from Tagaytay to Manila. It was insanely hot outside but cause I'm always odd/weird, I still opted to wear a long sleeved top and jeans. That wasn't even the end of the story! I even wore a turban! I only realize it now how crazy I was. The people that I came across with were wearing shorts, tank tops and summer dresses and here I was wearing an all warm outfit as if it's winter.

P.S. We're planning to put up a The Bling Project  physical store real soon! We're now on a store location hunt so if you guys have any location suggestions, leave a comment below or send an email to theblingproject@yahoo.com. I and the 'bling blings' would really appreciate it. 

Unleash the Dragon!

Happy Chinese New Year Everyone! Some call it, "Kung Hei Fat Choi" while others, "

Gong Xi Fa Cai". Since I have no Chinese blood whatsoever, I don't know what's the most appropriate. I'm guessing it's all the same. 

It's that time of the year when people try to check their horoscopes and see what's up for them this year. Well, as for me, I have nothing against lucky charms and horoscopes -- as long as it is something that motivates you to do better in life -- there's no harm in believing!

 Just make it a point to draw that line between free will and determinism. You can't let anyone or anything tell you that your fate is predetermined and you "can only be this or that".  The Who Says song by Selena Gomez says it best! Haha (Who says you're not presidential, who says you can't be in movies; Listen to me, listen to me; who says you don't pass the test; who says you can't be the best;who who said... aminin! napakanta ka! hihi) 

*Back to serious mode*

But you must also acknowledge the fact that not everything lies in your hands. There are certain things that you can't do anything about but to accept. 

So with this, I really think I have to go back to studying. I have a looooong exam tomorrow at 8 and I can't do anything but to accept that we indeed have a test and I need to study some more if I don't wanna fail.
