Resurrection
I’ve recently started reading people’s thoughts on SubStack and I started flirting with the idea of starting something of my own. That’s when I remembered I already had somewhere I posted my random thoughts and musings! I just haven’t used it in eleven years (apparently!) So much has changed in those eleven years. 30-year old…

gray on gray on a gray day
Maybe it’s because 50 Shades of Grey came out recently, but I remembered I had these photos from a very gray outfit I wore not so recently. A gray chunky knit sweater worn with a gray midi skirt on a gray foggy day in the mountains of Tagaytay. And yes, call me delinquent, but that…

bien fait
Here’s an outfit I wore last weekend on a lazy Sunday. I just had lunch with some good friends at Otto, walked around the city, grabbed an iced latte at Birch Coffee (my new neighborhood coffee shop), sat in Madison Square Park chatting with Carla before heading home and plopping myself in front of my…

denim shirt + leopard skirt
These days, I’m making a conscious effort to wear things that are more colorful or interesting than my default white-shirt-and-jeans-combo. I’ve gotten somewhat lazy with my workday dressing lately. Neutrals, neutrals and more neutrals seemed to be the only things I grabbed from my closet for a while. So, when I had the sudden will power…

tennis stripes
It’s officially the end of summer! I don’t really understand how time could have flown by that quickly! Now that I’ve officially announced at work that I will be going back home to the Philippines at the end of October, the end of summer signals something more somber to me than the usually exciting beginning…

sharing the love (part 1)
I’ve had this blog for quite some time now, and in its earliest incarnation on Blogger, it was just a place for me to talk about what happened in my day. It was basically a repository of all the ramblings of my teenage self. Years after I’d left it dormant, I resurrected it into what…

laidback chic
Yesterday I went around TriBeCa so that I could finally visit some stores that I’ve been meaning to check out. Shinola and Schoolhouse Electric both have flagship stores there and I just generally haven’t been to that area as much as everywhere else in Manhattan. It was a pleasant walk and both stores were just…

revisiting the 90’s
I said I would stop with the shoe shopping, but it seems old habits are hard to break! Recently I’ve realized that I’ve been revisiting all these different classics from the 90’s. They’ve all been updated somewhat and they were definitely worn differently when I was growing up (Hello, Birks with socks!), but the nostalgia…

macaron trinket box
I found this at Paper Presentation (one of my favorite stores ever! I geek out over all the paper, envelopes, art supplies, boxes, etc) last weekend and can’t get over how cute it is! Macaron trinket boxes, why hasn’t anyone thought of these before? Coming in an array of pastel colors, these are the sweetest ways…

striped shorts
It was a glorious sunny day today so I thought I would wear my new scalloped striped shorts from Club Monaco. Super cute and super comfy, these shorts are both casual and sophisticated. I don’t really have anything planned today, save for a birthday dinner for our friend, Francis, so I spent most of the…
