The Hunt

There comes a point in your life when you start thinking about the future.

A future where there is depth in all aspects of your life.

So for this post, aside from my usual life peg, 

get to know some of my personal views in life.

On marriage. 

More often than not, people tie the knot for the wrong reasons.

Some marry for companionship while others marry for power and fame.

Whatever the reason may be, one's happiness is at stake.

At the end of the day, our choices do define us.

Let's hope and pray that we find a person who will 

pursue us every single day, even after marriage,

because that is the kind of love worth sharing.

On Career Growth.

We have to continuously find purpose for what we do.

Money can be one thing, but a driven life is another.

Most of the time it's the struggle which makes us want to give up but this

is actually the exact same thing that molds us into becoming a better person.

With the right support system and a positive outlook, 

we learn new things about ourselves and the world we live in.

Hope you learned a thing or two from me.

Our lives may be far from perfect,

but each day is a chance to prove our worth.

Why not start recreating yourself by revamping your look?

I don't know about you, but dressing well gives me more confidence.

Try out different styles too look fun and fearless.

A casual yet sophisticated ensemble like so is one of my recommendations.

A stylish top combined with acid wash jeans and pumps would do the trick :)

Secret Garden

Today's peg is Victorian-inspired with a solid lace bodice.

I gave my ensemble a fresh look by pairing it 

with some chic sunnies and floral pumps.

The Victorian period is one of my favorite eras as it is a vision of

grace and elegance. Giving it a more modern take, 

I made sure that my look is of ease and comfort.

For this look, I'm wearing one of my favorite brands, Forever21.

Forever21 is my go-to brand for stylish yet affordable fashion wear.

I love their wide selection of fashion pieces; 

I can be fun, flirty and feminine at one time & chic, mysterious and edgy at another.

Remember readers, fashion is all about style and personality.

You don't have to follow what's on-trend to look good.

Take for example the ensemble I'm wearing, you can rock it in more ways.

You can dress it up with some white sneakers for a punk or laidback look,

or even pair it with Balmain lace-up boots for a more sultry vibe. 

Whichever getup gives you the most confidence, 

then that's when you're most beautiful :)

Femme Fatale

To spice things up a bit, I'm bringing Femme Fatale back with a twist. 

Here's a sneak peak of what to expect.

When it comes to fashion, there are 3 things that most women dislike

A)  That she be caught wearing the same piece of clothing 

B)  That she meet her doppelganger and be fashion policed as to who wore it better, and

C)  That she has nothing to wear (though her closet is full, how ironic)

I know, I know. It sounds superficial or trivial, but I’m sure that you’ve heard one of these statements from your friends, colleagues and even from yourself. 

I for one am guilty, but that was then, because now I finally got my secret weapon: My LBD

LBD by Forever21

That Little Black Dress inside your closet can be your best friend or worst enemy, depending on how you use it of course. If you have worn your LBD for countless times without changing your look, then say hello to plain old boring Jane. 

However, if you’re like me who loves to experiment by mixing and matching clothes, then creativity and attitude are all you need to make that look work.

I'll be featuring each of my looks so stay tuned!

Which look is your favorite? Feel free to drop a comment :)
