Color Block it on a Saturday Night!

Color block
Yay! My second LookBook post!

I love it!

Again, this was taken weeks (June 18, 2011) ago when I was out with my friends on a Saturday night.

Details on my outfit.

Shirt: exaggerated v-neck cut, basic cotton-purple-shirt. Bought it for 30 pesos years ago in an Ukay-Ukay shop in Agdao. LOL I think I bought that shirt coz' I wanted to sew the cut together coz' it's tooo revealing for a shirt. LOL But I forgot about it. And viola, it still work this time as it is when I bought it. LOL

CARDIGAN: Clef de Sol. Another Ukay-Ukay find. My sister-in-law bought this for me. After gaining a lot of (little, just exaggerating) weight. I'm always in search for a good (read:FAB) cardigan. And I always tell people that if they find one, they buy it for me. LOL So this is it. In sea green. Perfect match for my purple v-neck shirt.

FEDORA by Forever 21: I've had this hat for years now. Close to 3 years. This is like the first time I wore this coz' I couldn't find anything to match this fedora. I was just so happy to wear this hat that night. Thanks to Gray, a good friend who always bring me stuff when she visits Davao.

Espadrilles by Nu Look: This has a funny story. We (me and my friend, Sash in Singapore) bought this on a buy one take one scheme. Love it! Sash did not make me pay for the shoes. He had a plain espadrilles in mint green. We bought this in Nu Look Ion Orchard, $25.00 for two.

Tote by Mango: Have you noticed that I love everything brown bags? LOL I love it in that color and I like it even more if it looks vintage. My friend, Betchie in Singapore gave me this simple yet functional, vintage-looking brown leather tote. I think she noticed that I've been using it all the time that she finally decided to give to me when I left Singapore. T'was her going away gift for me. LOL Thank you, Betch! See you this Thursday! :D

Totally faded jeans by Human: I've had this pair of jeans since 2008. I bought that on impulse coz' of the zipper detail on the front pockets. And it's just a miracle I still fit in 'em. LOL

So that's it! My second LookBook ensemble! 
A little peekaboo.. LOL

the whole look. love it!

Hope that my next LookBook post will be as fabulous as this one. LOL

LookBook Dilemma

I just recently joined LOOKBOOK.NU and promised to myself to regularly upload new look on a weekly basis. (Actually, I wanted like every other day! But planning an ensemble alone takes up few days of your time. LOL) It's the first week birthday of my LookBook account tomorrow and  still, I've got no new photo to add to my account.

I am like in panic mode atm. 

My problem is ----> I don't have a PHOTOGRAPHER to take my portraits!! LOL I have a camera but a person to carry that gadget and take fabulous photos of  myself, NA DA!!!! *I am seriously in BIG trouble! LOL*

My first LOOKBOOK look
Look for less. All ukay-ukay finds. LOL
*except for the shoes, undies and white shirt*




That first LOOKBOOK was taken in Depot Road Bus Stop, Singapore on a Sunday by my good friend, Betchie. We were on our way to Anchorpoint to check on some outlet shops. (Like I said, I love fashion for less but with GREAT STATEMENT! :D) 


As my friend took this shot of me waiting for our Bus 175 in Bus Stop Blk9, the idea of the shot was --- casual, out-on-a-day-for-shopping look. LOL Seriously, I never had a chance to shop when I stayed in Singapore.  This is for the main reason that I am on a TIGHT BUDGET! LOL That was sad really. LOL


I call that look, Sunday Tea PartyI literally had Tea Milk with Cheezy French Toast (cheese, butter and Hainanese spread combined! To die for) in Ya Kun Kaya Toast while my friend had mani and pedi. 


Milk Tae --> my first. I always refuse to have milk in my tea.
But this changed my mind. I introduced this to my niece/nephews, they love it too!
Cheesy French Toast w/ butter and Hainanese spread. Love it!
Little piece of HEAVEN!
After my tea, I window shopped a bit. Checked on some merchandise on to where can I stretch that few dollars of pocket money. LOL And viola!! I found a novelty shop that hold several fun items. Including memorabilias of Marilyn Monroe. Weeee! That was HEAVEN to me too...


If you think about it, this is just cheap if you collect items
that has Marilyn Monroe on. I love it! Best BUY!!

All the decks scattered for her Instagram treatment. LOL 
We also checked Ikea and my friend bought some batteries for our clock and a Vanilla Scented Candle. 


SHOPPING PARADISE FOR ALL HOME DECOR NEEDS.. Heaven!!!!
  
Dinning set ideas
Reading area ideas. LOL

Home office ideas....


I just love yellow rooms and I look fat in this photo. LOL
-----------------------------------

So that it's. I tried to divert my attention to the details of that outfit and what happened during that day.  But it still leads me to the main topic of this entry. ---------> WHAT WILL I POST TOMORROW IN MY LOOKBOOK!!! LOL

xoxo,
Noeh

P.S.
All photos were taken last 27th of Febuary, 2011. This sound funny, but that day was also the first week birthday of my stay there in Singapore. Hmmp. Something's fishy.
