Blogger Inspiration

I love reading style blogs and that's already part of my daily routine. I love to see how stylist and creative bloggers can get. From reading various style blogs, i got an inspiration from them. One of my fave style blogger is Carrie of mybarestyle. Her style is very casual yet so chic. Her wardrobe composed of basics with great shoes. I love how she mix basic items with something edgy/funky.







And Carrie is not just your ordinary blogger. She is also an accessory designer which is the Bare Accessories.

Bayo Holiday Collection 2009

Bayo, a local retail brand, showcased a sophisticated approach to the brand's trademark casual quirk in it's Holiday Collection 2009. The new pieces took inspiration from both street style and vintage silhouettes, creating an easy mix of urban and vintage, girly and androgynous, and formal and quirky.
These are some pieces I love:




i love the trousers!

Plaid Couture

There is an ongoing Christmas Bazaar at the trade hall of SM City Cebu. If I remember it right, today is the last day of the bazaar. Yesterday during my lunch break I take the chance for a quick trip to the mall to do some quick shopping. ;) I enjoyed hopping from one stall to the other that I lost track of the time. To make it short, I go back to the office at 2pm (I'm suposed to go back at 1pm). Bad I know. And with that 2hours of shopping, I only bought 1 item. lol


I call this the plaid couture shorts - Php100 ($2).

Fashion Designer: Joey Samson

I want to dedicate a little space in my blog to our local fashion designers.
Today I'll feature the recent collection of Joey Samson themed BEYOND for the Fashion Watch series. For him, it was “an attempt to move further, to go beyond trends, beyond what I think I'm capable of doing, beyond what everyone thinks is wearable, beyond what the eyes can see.”

Preggy in Style

I never thought you could be this chic when you're pregnant! This woman (i don't know her name) from mydailystyle amazed me on how she managed to be chic and fashionable even with the baby bump. You could never tell that she is pregnant (if not with the baby bump) judging on her style.






Now I really wish that I could be that chic when I will get pregnant!
