Embrace Me

top: Forever21

skirt: bought in Hong Kong

shoes: Topshop

accessories: Accessorize and Aldo

lips: Mac Embrace Me (lipliner) and Revlon Lip Butter in Strawberry Shortcake


Easy, breezy... Nothing complicated, nothing fancy. A monochromatic outfit with just the right pop of colors here and there. I'm starting to obsess about scarves...I know we don't actually have the right weather but when have I ever been weather appropriate???


Anyways... 


I couldn't have picked a better outfit to pair with my new favorite lip combo. If you follow me on twitter, you'd probably know how I've been obsessing about 2 particular lipstick that I can't seem to get my hands on. They evade me till this day. So when my MUA friend suggested I get the lipliner with a similar shade..I thought why not. 
And BAM! Instant fave!!! 
So if you're like me who missed out on MAC Pink Pigeon...you might want to try this lipliner. 


Gotta go now...talk to you all soon. 


ps.  After seeing these picture narealize ko "Ang arte ko lang talaga"...especially sa last one. You'd think somebody else was taking my photo. Kung makatingin sa malayo...ang OA! hahahaha...

Giveaway: Indie Fridays

From the makers of the hit Bloggers United Bazaar, Bloggers United is back with a special project this 2012 - INDIE FRIDAYS!
It is an event that aims to provide a platform for independent and promising young individuals in the field of fashion, music and film to showcase their gift and creativity.  

The social media community is teeming with undiscovered talents and we at Bloggers United would like to give them exposure outside the world wide web for a moment to truly shine or simply vent out their passion for their craft. 

Fridays at Ponticello will never be the same as we transform it to a multimedia hub where all artists and social media mavens can converge, network and jump start a possible shot at their desired industry. Every last day of the week is a possible mix of various fields as we provide a venue for:

1) Youtube artists or starting musicians to play for live audience
2) Budding designers and fashion entrepreneurs to launch their line
3) Indie filmmakers to display their videos or short films
4) Photographers and stylists to exhibit their portfolio

So Bloggers United has given me 5 passes to give away to you guys, really simple mechanics:

• Follow my blog
• Like Indie Fridays Facebook page  
• Share the event poster on Facebook. (click here)
• And tweet this:  "Save the date: Feb 24, 2012 for the first #IndieFridaysBU at Ponti in Valero St. Makati!  @bloggers_united @BelleFenix"
• Comment with your name, email address, FB post and Twitter link. 

Tinge Of Blue

shirt: People Are People

skirt: H&M
shoes: Jeffrey Campbell Lita

lips: Mac Gotta Dash

It's been a while since I've worn a skirt. I've just been enjoying the ease and comfort of wearing pants/shorts. But since the shopping ban, I figured it's best to utilize my own closet. Voila! Feels like new clothes!!! Well, not really. But bare with me, let me live in my fantasy. hahaha..

And...

It's been a while since I used eyeliner, especially colored ones. You can't really see it clearly but I had on a blue eyeliner. You can see on my hand though. Yeah, I'm one of those people who use their hands as palettes and completely forget to wipe them off.

And of course...

Happy Hearts Day everyone. I was dateless and flowerless today...but not loveless. In whatever way you celebrated this day, I hope it was full of love and laughter. Hugs everyone!!!

Why So Sad?

top: sorry forgot..I think Greenhills???

cover up: Bought from Hong Kong

shorts and necklace: H&M

shoes: Jeffrey Campbell

lips: Mac Party Parrot

Threw some stuff on and I was good to go. What I love about this outfit is how simple it looks from the front but as I turn around you get a little something more. I've worn this cover up a couple of times already but never had the opportunity to take pictures. So glad I was finally able to. I just wish the tiger's eyes weren't so sad. They're not as ferocious as I would like. hahaha..


Anyways...

I apologize for the very sporadic updating and the one or two sentences post. I'm a very fickle person and at the moment, I can't seem to blog properly. But I'm easing my way back into it. Hopefully I get more interesting stuff/outfit to blog about soon. 

And...

About those lipstick swatches. I tried doing those...but the lens I have now is not really made for that. So that's not happening anytime soon. Maybe if I finally have the money to buy a macro lens...swatches galore!


Ok, that's all for now. Bye!
