There's an abuse of same print dressing going all over Tokyo now, not to mention this asian dude in Stockholm (above) donning checks head-to-toe. Of course, this is not an ordinary wardrobe staple but what makes this look work incredibly is how they play up with the details. Like how proportion of sizes of Union Jack prints are displayed and star studded vest on checks. It is also important to understand that this "loud" use of pattern is not about a lesson in matching clothes but an exploration on patterns as a walking graphic street art.

| hair by Jake Galvez and Buern Rodriguez of Tony Galvez Salon, 9th St., Cubao, QC |
I FINALLY DID IT!!!
I spent the whole afternoon at the salon. Bleached my hair twice and dyed it blue. I love how it came out. It made me really happy! I feel Tokyo-fied!
I taped a TV guesting for the show called The Sweet Life later that night. I made friends with the 90's iconic local dance group Universal Motion Dancers. Haha! It was nostalgic to see them dance their old moves again.Brings back memories. I bet it's gonna be a good episode!

| chambre button down: Giordano / striped shirt: Tommy Hilfiger/ Scarf: marc by MJ |
This is my second "what i wore" tagged as "me" and I plan to update this as often as I could. My yaya is learning how to use my camera now and i hope she gets as better as Steven Klein or Juergen Teller in time.
This is my first time to wear khakis in ages and it reminded me why they called it Relaxed Fit. Unlike my usual skinny pants, I can actually feel my legs' blood circulating. This is like a lookbook.nu moment- Chambre + blue striped shirt + khaki + DM. Neckpiece is actually a striped skinny scarf I got years ago which I made into a fabric neckpiece.

"A known trait for Jeremy Scott is his use of bright hues; this is not the case for his Fall/Winter 2010 collection. Scott decided to add his design aesthetic to the adidas Originals by Originals Jeremy Scott yet he only use achromatic colors in his works. Signature Jeremy Scott symbols such as a crucifix, wings, and enlarged Trefoil logo can be witnessed through his fall/winter 2010 Lookbook. Scott adds his signature “wings” to the back of hoodies, modifies the adidas Trefoil logo by giving it a dripping effect, and contemporary alterations to his pieces. "
Blah blah blah.
My point really is" I WANT TO OWN THEM ALL! Never mind if they're warm, hence they're called sweatpants, duh. I just need to have them in my closet only if I could afford them. I like the winged sweats best.

these are my new outfit pegs. I'm slowly saying bye bye to goth/rick owens trend which everyone who tries to look "individual" are sporting. Little did they know, they all look the same. Haha. The thing I like about the Japs street style is that they do not follow off the runway looks. You see them having fun with fashion. Exploring layers, silhouettes, colors and mixing opposite ideas to create a unique personalized character. Last saturday my friend asked me if I want to go to tokyo 'coz she knows someone who could help us with the visa is on and all. And the plane fare is like Php 8K only! cheaper than going to Davao or any part of the Philippines. I thought she was just joking. When I asked her about it again this morning, she said the sale is over. Darn.

I have never worn sweat pants since P.E. class in college simply because I find them too sporty, warm and has awkard pockets. But lately, I've been contemplating on owning a pair. These Jeremy Scott ones are cute but these may not available here so I think I'm settlin for the solid colored ones and I might just jazz them up a bit. We are not talking nylon sweats here, okay.

We've seen Gucci Guilty blazed on fire from the director of Sin City and needless to say, it's hot.
Now comes another shorty of Dior Homme from Rock and Rollah director Guy Ritchie with Jude Law as the main lead. Makes me wonder if his rendez vous is with that much talked nanny.

It's been a while now since I started pondering whether to color my hair or not. My friend Jujiin is in Tokyo w and he took this inspiring photos of colored heads and I finally came up with a decision: "Yes! I am definitely coloring my hair!!! My hair's kinda boring me and it's in this awkward phase of growing. Aside from that, it's too black!
I really believe that my hair and/or hairstyle has a direct effect on my life, career, love, etc. There's definitely a reason why it's called the "crowning glory!"

  We started at X for some drinks and ended in a friend's house. Went home 8AM in a torn up red dress in CUBAO! Walk of Shame. Anyways, the most dredded thing happened the night before- I cant fit in any of my skinnies anymore!!! Yes, even the stretched ones! I think I got fat. Death to fatness. I saw this dress and tried it on, tore it and finally, gave up. |

I found these lovely feathered earcuffs from stylehurricane. It's a lovely alternative to statement earrings or a statement in itself if worn by guys. It's sold for $25-27 a pair.
