Cozy Knits

I've always wanted to wear knits but every time I attempt to, the temperature never hits below the 25-30 degree Celsius range. And that is hot! It's like having summer all year round. But I wouldn't let that stop me from buying and sporting this striped knit top with this gorgeous skirt that was gifted to me by a friend.

I love the sheer simplicity and femininity of this look. And this explains why I love wearing skirts most of the time. They are so easy to wear but with the right pair of shoes can easily transform your look from drab to fab!

10 Photos That'll Convince You To Buy a Wood Watch

The Frankie series is one of my favorites and one that I have had my eye on. In particular, this Frankie Zebrawood and Champagne watch is on my wishlist. Gift to self for Christmas, maybe?

This is another favorite of mine from the Frankie series. It comes with a vibrant emerald green face that makes a simplistic style stand out. You can buy the Frankie Dark Sandalwood and Emerald watch here.

Okay, I promise this is the last one from this series. Can you tell how much I adore the Frankie series from JORD? This one is the Ebony & Gold style.

The Fieldcrest series was one of those first few collections available at JORD. This Dark Sandalwood watch instantly caught my eye because of how good it looked on. It is from one of the cheaper lines priced only at $139.

If classic and simple style is what you're after, the Fieldcrest series won't disappoint. In particular, the Fieldcrest Maple watch will go with anything!

The purpleheart color of the wood matched with the opaline Mother of Pearl face creates a beautiful contrast. If you want a statement timepiece, this is the one for you. You can shop it here.

This is the first JORD watch that I got - Ely Maple. I love the wood work on this and the delicate maple wood that provides a feminine accent when used to accessorize an outfit. The best part? I can wear it with literally ANYTHING!

The icy silver tones of this Cora Maple and Silver watch provides a beautiful contrast with the color of the wood. It is classic and modern at the same time.

Of course, I haven't forgotten my man. I've been thinking of getting a JORD watch for him (you can see him model the Sully Green JORD Watch for the blog here) and these are my two choices:

This Dover Zebrawood and Dark Sandalwood looks so rustic and masculine. They'd make great gift ideas for men this holiday season, too!

Also loving the Dover Ebony & Copper watch from JORD. Love the masculine details and woodwork.

Embroidered Denim

Top: Shein
Skirt: Fashionme (c/o)
Bag: 88 Handbags (c/o)
Watch: JORD (c/o)
Wedge Sandals: Sammydress (c/o

It's been a long time when I last wore a denim skirt. The last one was probably in the 90's (no kidding). It was a staple part of my style during that time but I have outgrown them. Today, just like any other fashion trends, denim skirts are back... and in a big way! I got this new embroidered denim skirt from Fashionme and it was a bittersweet moment to relive the fashion trend I was fond of as a young girl. 

Top: Shein
Skirt: Fashionme (c/o)
Bag: 88 Handbags (c/o)
Watch: JORD (c/o)
Wedge Sandals: Sammydress (c/o)

I have seen a lot of new denim skirt trends emerge. But denim pencil skirts are a classic in my eyes. The embroidered details on this one provide the right amount of modern edge. But I wanted to keep the look feminine casual so this floral cami top from Shein and wedges from Sammydress were my best bet to complement the skirt. But since this is a classic piece, it's versatile enough to be paired with several other items in my closet. Be sure to be on the lookout for those remixed styles soon!

How would you wear this embroidered denim skirt?

Summer White Dress

Dress: Shein
Bag: Dresslink (c/o)
Watch: JORD (c/o)
Shoes: Sam Edelman
Earrings: Kenneth Jay Lane (only $14!!)

There is something about me and white that do not go together... I can't EVER seem to wear white without staining it. Hence, I've tried to avoid wearing white whenever I can but this white lace dress from Shein is looking so perfect for summer that I couldn't say no.

To be honest, I was looking for a little white dress to add to my summer wardrobe. It has been a while since I've bought or worn a white dress (except for my wedding). And this dress comes with raving reviews, too, so I figured it might be a good time to buy a new one. True enough, it was as beautiful as was shown on the website. The fabric is cool, light and fresh - just what I wanted for summer since the heat in the Philippines is insane. 

I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a white dress. The fabric has some stretch to it, which is always a bonus when shopping online! I tossed in my old reliables as far as accessories are concerned like my JORD Sully watch and this striped tote (perfect as a beach tote too).

Touch of Suede

As much as I love wearing dresses, there are certain moods that make me crave for my jeans. Wearing denim jeans is a classic look that can be easily dressed up or down. Simple touches can make a look. And for this one, I think my red suede Steve Madden pumps helped to elevate this casual denim look.

When suede became a huge trend earlier this year, I was excited about the trend because of the gorgeous suede pieces I've been seeing on various bloggers. Sadly, the tropical weather here makes it impossible for me to wear anything suede. The next best thing I could get to wearing a suede is by wearing suede shoes. Me getting this suede pumps was perfectly timed too since I was looking to add red pumps to my shoe collection. And it does not hurt that these red pumps dressed up the outfit, right?

If you are also looking to add some red suede pumps to your collection (since mine is already sold out), here are some options for you:

Kate Spade Licorice Pumps / DVF Myriam Suede Pumps / Stuart Weitzman Heist Pumps

Which of these red pumps will you love to take home?
