That Thing Called Plaid

August marks the start of another school year.

If you're still a student, here's an outfit suggestion that you can sport. 

Instead of wearing plaid which is quite ordinary these days, 

I recommend that you try Houndstooth,a modern take to plaid.

Houndstooth is a duotone pattern consisting of abstract 

four-pointed shapes, often in a color combination of black and white.

I created this ensemble for a casual and chic look, 

simply perfect for day to day school affairs.

My top and skirt are both from ROMWE. This brand's fashion collection is 

so diverse that I can find everything I need in it. Not to mention, they are always

 updated with the latest styles and trends. Perfect for all fashionistas out there.

Always remember that there are a lot of ways to personalize a look.

It doesn't mean that what works for me will work for you.

It's all a matter of getting some style inspiration and turning it 

into a look you can call your very own.

Love,

Like a Sweetheart

I've promised you different looks for the upcoming Holiday Season.

So here's another ensemble I came up with. 

Look every bit of a Sweetheart by going with nude and pastel colors.

Simple accessories are all you need to make this look work.

In my case, some bangles, sunnies and a pretty big smile :)

This look is perfect for casual gatherings for the Holiday.

To own this look, first, pick a crop top with a classic design and color.

Second, pick a mullet or asymmetric skirt, preferably in pastel color.

And voila, you've made yourself a gorgeous dress. Easy as that :)

I'm wearing a crop top from Clothes Buffet Manila.

I can't wait to show you the rest of the outfits I got from CBM.

It was indeed a shopping experience to remember.

Excited for the next season.

Do remember that you don't have to follow trends to look good.

Wear something that you feel comfortable in.

In that way, you'll look your best.

NG for Maldita

Lately, I've been hearing people say that they find Chinitas intimidating.

Why? Because they say we look like a Maldita.

My reply to them would be: Only a Maldita when it comes to style.

As a fashion stylist, I am drawn to styles that are both modern and classy.

MALDITA is one brand that is close to my heart.

Asymmetric Skirt from MALDITA

I believe that the simplest way to draw attention is by how you dress up.

The way you carry yourself will be an inspiration to many. 

MALDITA is proudly a Filipino brand. Currently, Nikki Gil is their brand ambassador.

Nikki's lifestyle and personality is perfect fit for the Brand.

Someday, I hope I too can collaborate with MALDITA.

It's definitely a brand that I trust, which explains why I wear clothes like a Maldita.

Hence, the title of my post :)

At the end of the day, it's all about having personality and character.

A MALDITA lady will always be cheerful and incredibly charming.
