Marrying Leather & Denim

I miss thrift shopping. I super miss it. I miss all of my vintage dresses (which I sold on Archive Clothing). I miss the thrill of finding that one amazing dress hidden behind a rack full of useless shiz. I will come back for you ukays! Soon. You are my true love. :) Heh. Anyway, enough with my senseless rambling. Went to a focus group meeting at Unionbank earlier! I had fun making chika with Unionbank EON's marketing manager Ms. Paola and of course mah girl Pia!:) Thanks for inviting me. :) Guys, you should all get an EON card. It's super convenient (more than BDO and BPI, sorry). I use it for online fund transfers, online shopping, getting my salary via Paypal, plane ticket booking, etc. etc. Best part? You just have to pay P300 as initial deposit. Oha. So this is what I wore earlier...

nasilaw look. sorryyyy hehe

Heir Line top, Thrifted vintage leather skirt, Asian Vogue yellow pumps, Pinkbox studded bangle

I love this denim buttondown shirt from Heir coz of the sheer sleeves, which could save your life in this unbearable heat. Countered the preppy-ish top with this leather mini skirt for that preppy edgy look. Labo. Haha. Finished off with my yellow pumps from Asian Vogue for that sudden pop of color. And that ends the how I styled this look portion. 

I hope you're all saving up for the much awaited blogger event of the year-- the Bloggers United Bazaar! Follow our facebook page for updates and to see our cool new poster (aztec tribal y'all). See you all on June 2!:)

 P.S. To my giveaway winners -- I will ship all your prizes soon. Sorry for the delay (as always). You all know how crazy my days are. So thanks for being patient. Love you all!

Weekend + Preppy Bumblebee
