Went to Zara last weekend to get my black dress-shirt, but saw these:
The second pic: very comfy to wear but I don't know if the look suits me or my personality. Love it though that the black top is made of Organic cotton. Hope they make more clothes that are eco-friendly.
So, should I get? Hmmm.

For Him: Black Label
Saw this from the Mabuhay Doctor's website, and this new concept in Rustan's looks very interesting and promising!
I should check it out soon... I'm hoping they still have this
as I want to give E a new messenger bag (for travel) for Christmas... because most likely I will not be able to afford to give him this...

The Obi is Back!
Well, at least in Marc Jacobs' S/S 09 Collection!
Strangely I like this collection... not too much bright colors and all. I believe that the colors of autumn still influenced the colors of the Spring/Summer collections, which, based on my last post, what I'm liking/loving! Plaid (I previously posted about this) is still "in" next year, so those investments are still good. I hope! There's not much splash of color, and if any, these were jewel toned colors - no pastel-y type, you know. Anyway, this collection... I really like... Kinda retro, kindly oriental, kinda modern, kinda everything. MJ is really a genius. Hehehehe.
More of my favorite collections later!

Austere Dressing
My style right now is apparently evolving... For some reason, I'm now so into the neutrals. Like what Comme Des Garcons (and also Chuvaness' style mantra) "said"... no color, no jewelry, short nails, etc...
This for me is challenging to achieve. With neutrals - black, white, gray - you have to be more creative in the choices you make, else you'd look to Gothic. But then again, I'm not really into that baggy, hard-core CDG designs either. I still prefer streamlines silhouettes - though I'm putting on more weight, I can still be consdiered "slim" and those baggy stuff will just drown me and all. So, not too much baggy items for me. Nor the slinky ones too.
Which was why I totally dig Lanvin's Pre-Fall 2008 collection...
Maybe it's just because of the "season" right now. Autumn (or rainy season here in Pinas) just doesn't call for color, at least for me now. But hey, I'm kinda liking some of the S/S '09 collections (more on that later).
Anyway, that's my little style reflection today.

Dinner With Friends
I would love to try this outfit set for dinner with friends. I'm looking forward to wearing those nice little black socks with my shoes! As for the silver Chanel bag.... maybe I'll just get an alternative. Hahaha.

Friday Casuals: Earth Tones
Before these galidators go out of style, I should maximize them. Hahaha. I'm glad to wear this with one of my favorite dress shirts, my black tulip dress.

Crazy Weather
Here's an outfit for reflecting the schizo weather we have right now.
Dark neutrals with a burst of color - a sunny day amid the rainy week.

For Husband's Birthday
It's dear hubby's birthday today, and how I wish we could have a very special celebration. Unfortunately he's away.
What would I wish to wear should we have a date tonight?

Obviously I am crushing on Lanvin for the longest time.

Closer To Home
I may never be able to own one (I wish, but not really that interested), but at least it's close to home. Thanks to my Aunt, who now has 2 Hermes Birkins. Here's her latest (the first was in tan).

Mad For Plaid
From D&G Fall 2008 Collection. Images from Style.com
If only I had the height... Anyway, I'm loving plaid right now. Just a quick post on this though... will just check out other plaid outfits.
Loving Kylie
She's one of my favorites. Check her out in her off-work looks...
Images from [Vogue UK]
Her face is so beautiful. And she's just so sexy and sensual even in "casual" clothes. Husband is very lucky to have watched her concert in London. His most vivid memory of the experience? "Her bootie is just a few meters away from me." Hahaha.
Will talk about those Ray Ban's in another post.

Promod Collection
Here's a collage of my favorite items from Promod.
Hope that their shop in Greenbelt 5 will open soon, as I'm too lazy to go to Trinoma. I hope the clothes I want are there too.

Love that casual look. I'm kicking myself right now for not getting those yellow pumps/booties I saw last weekend.

The New Jackie O?
My favorite woman of the moment: Carla Bruni

I wanted to get a copy of Vanity Fair's September issue, but it was out of stock (in Powerplant at least). Better check the other magazine shops in other malls.
Anyway, click HERE for the cover story.

Black Boots
Boots from Zara (tried on by my sister).
I wish I can wear this... but it doesn't fit me, not even the smallest size.
