Midcalf Skirts Trend

Published on 2012-02-26 02:27:00

Have you ever worn mid-calf skirts? They are so unflattering, unless you have really skinny legs. But they are such a hot trend this year and last year that I just have to make them a special mention. Midcalf skirts do not do much to flatter you because they end right where your legs seem fat and stubby. Remember the fashion tenet where your skirt’s hem should fall on that area of your leg that looks skinny? Well, a mid-calf skirt would break that rule. Despite my rant on the mid-calf skirt, [..] > read more

Plains & Prints Philippines 2012

Published on 2012-02-25 02:16:00

If you live in the Philippines, I bet you have at least one item of clothing from Plains & Prints. They’re rather popular, given their unique styles and office-ready designs. And last season, I loved their dresses that I’m posting my top picks from their collection! Plains & Prints never cooperates with my figure, though. My neckline and my waist are so against what the store offers, sob! But I love their clothes nonetheless. I have to admit, though, that I often have to restyle or alter th [..] > read more

Lace Fashion Spring 2012

Published on 2012-02-23 02:01:00

Lace, oh lace. Despite the supposedly conventional nature of lace, there’s nothing boring about it. It’s supposed to be conservative, but wear a see-through lace top with no camisoles or tank tops underneath and the conservative vibe is out of the picture. It’s supposed to be dated, but it seems to never go out of style. Apparently, lace is here to stay in the fashion world. Lace fashion is something you should wear with caution, however. If you go overboard, you might end up looking like [..] > read more

Summit Magazine Subscription Problems

Published on 2011-11-16 00:55:00

Two months ago, I paid for a fashion magazine subscription from Summit Publishing. I was told that I would receive my first magazine after two months – that’s this month.

My Web Hosting Story

Do you have your very own domain? If you are serious about blogging, you should consider checking out different web hosting services online and get your own domain name pronto. The problem with hosting your blog on free sites, such as Blogger and Wordpress, is that as soon as you shift to your own domain name, the backlinks are potentially lost.

Sports Wear Can Be Fashionable

The only thing about soccer and rugby I like to watch are the good-looking men. I know, I’m not much of a sports fan… but I still love fashion, which is why I want to blog about sportswear. Last month, my best friend received a soccer shirt from her boyfriend, which she now wears as her nightie.

But there goes my best friend, parading in her favorite soccer shirt, [..] > read more

Going Japanese

Published on 2011-10-03 10:59:00

Ever since the most recent earthquake that hit Japan, people started paying attention to the small but proud country. They showed composure and dignity at a time when others would have crumbled – which is probably why even their fashion sense shows a sense of individuality that many designers covet. Being touted as one of Asia’s most fashionable countries, Japan’s fashion sensibilities are going global.
