Have you tried wearing all the colors of Autumn in one outfit?

It's autumn once again....probably the most liked season in the whole year- because aside from the temperature/weather is just right (not hot as summer but not as cold as winter and no allergens in the air as spring), nature renders to us one of the most beautiful phenomenon- the changing of the color of the leaves. Although in the Philippines we do not have Autumn, but our fashion style is influenced by its colors.

Here's an outfit with most of the Autumn colors in it.





How to Tie a Ribbon Belt

Ribbons are inexpensive and easy to get. You can purchase them from National Bookstores or SM Department stores or even from the Market in different colors. Since it is inexpensive one can afford to have all the colors in the rainbow.
Ribbons can be used as a Belt and it can be styled in several ways. 

Here I'll show 5 ways using my hand sewn ribbon belt.

Sexy Cat Suit inspired outfit- Look of the day

A cat suit is a very sexy outfit and is a favorite of Jennifer Lopez to wear in her concerts.
Typical cat suit design is a one-piece suit that is skin tight  and belted at the hips.....I would love to wear a  cat suit if only I have the figure to carry it and the right occasion to wear them to...

But I can't wait for those conditions to happen so I have my own version of a cat suit style inspired outfit ...one that is forgiving of my mommy tummy and ok to wear to just a casual event or just malling for that matter.

Here's my cat suit inspired look.....

Having two separate pieces (instead of a one piece suit) is less restricting. The shirt is not too tight, that it can be ruched  around the hips to conceals those bumps- which I call  mommy tummy. After giving birth to 5 kids, I just can't get rid of the extra sagging skin on my belly.


The pants is a jersey pants which used to be Flared bottom. I altered it into pencil cut.   (please excuse the mess at the back...I just don't have the software to edit it out.).



The Hobo jacket relaxes the look.

The loose jacket compliments the tight outfit.

some comfy wedges

Look of the day - Pretty Alter fashion

My outfit today is also an Alter Fashion -an altered tank top and shawl ensemble. 
There are some clothes that when you buy it, it looks nice in the fitting cubicle.. but when you get home, you'll say "what was I thinking?" because it could either be uncomfortable to wear or the fit is actually bad  or the design is actually ugly or whatever.  I think it does happen to most if not all of us..in fact some of those clothes would never see the light again after it's bought. But for me, I at least wear it once or twice just to get rid of the guilt and then alter it. 
This clothes in it's original design was only worn once until I altered it (which was worn several times already)...so here it is my outfit today.




and of course the bolero is also an accessory perfect for concealing those thunder arms.




And now the clothes in its original shape/design and the change.
The boobs are the same...I just realized the arrow is pointing there...hahaha.


Thought of the day

Mood of the day.....Having no internet for two days made me feel so disconnected and isolated with the world....and made me restless.

Look of the day -how to wear a scarf

Hello Friends, welcome back to my channel...I was not able to post yesterday as our INTERNET connection was down..so this was yesterday's outfit or look of the day.
Weather is getting crazy these days...it rains and then stops and it's scorching hot and heavy rain again...really, confuses me what to wear.
Speaking of getting confused of what to wear? Do you have those days when you just open your closet and with that sea of clothes you utterly don't know what to wear or sometime I'd say, "I have nothing to wear"..funny, right? That's the irony of having too much choices that sometimes we end up with nothing....That's why in this blog I am not flooding you with too much choices but just a few options of how to wear a stole/scarf...here's 12 ways.

But first my look of the day...

Thought of the day

simple wedges- from local Philippine Brand

Mood of the day

I am sorry but I don't have names for these knots...I just experimented as I went along with the photo session.

Look of the day- Cute Empire dress

Empire waist dress or Empire cut dress or Empire dress is a type of dress or maybe a blouse where  the waistline is raised above the natural waistline or sometimes higher somewhere below the bust line. This design is supposed to camouflage a bottom heavy figure or a thick waist- it covers the extra curves (in unwanted places) of the body....
However, not all Empires are created equal...instead it could reveal the undulation that we thought are discretely hidden. Just like what I have here...
I was once strutting in this dress in one of the malls in Malaysia...well I thought I was looking sexy in this dress when I last saw myself in the mirror before I left the house...but after having lamb chops and cheese cake at the Secret Recipe, I felt "weirded" and a bit annoyed by those ladies who kept on shoving to my face their brochures every time I pass by their stall that sells those "MAGIC GIRDLES"...I thought it was odd....but I did realize soon after when I went to an intimate apparel shop and the saleslady tried to offer me stuffs for pregnant women....WHAT!...and so this dress went straight to storage and stayed there until....Now I have the solution.
The solution: Wide belts in darker color/shade- we all know that a belt puts the curves in the right place and hides the extra bulge. The darker color creates and illusion of slimmer waist. It has to be a wide belt to cover from the empire cut line to the natural waist line..also it makes the torso look longer.

I have only two wide belts in my closet so here's how they look...
I would wear with this belt on a more formal occasion or to a party or dinner date, put on some heels and hoop earing...

with this belt it is more on a casual tone....

For today I choose this look.
Just right for going around town in a sun shiny day
with simple necklace.
with guitar or probably it's a ukelele designed  connector ring
with flip flops and an anklet.
