Penshoppe Rings

A couple of weekends ago, I came across an accessory sale that sold rings for around $2.50. It was awesome, also after a week of no school and horrible lighting, I am off to work for next week's post

$2.50 or Php 100 at Penshoppe. Awesome cocktail ring. First studded thing I've ever bought,
probably not the last hihihi

Live and in color, quite comfy to wear too

$2.5 dollars or Php 100 as well at Penshoppe. Anchor double knuckle ring

I'd wear both the ring and the gladiator sandals with my navy blue stripes sleeveless shirt
and khaki skirt for a sailor-ish look

Just so the rusty anchor's color could be seen.

Back to work on my next batch.

Goddess Heeled Sandals

I started out wanting to use the Via Spiga pair as a part of my photo shoot with the rings. Seeing how it didn't work out, I decided to go ahead and have make its own tribute post. They are beautifully golden and they look straight out of a Greek statue/painting except they come with heels. One last detail: got these (my fave formal shoes) on 50% off. How awesome was that?!



totally unreated. Aerosoles (relative's)

Comfy beyond words. But got pulled out of the local stores lately.

Golden Goddess Heels.

Emphasis on the ankle strap. Keeps the shoe from sliding.
My hand has now gone back to modelling :">

Faded the color for this edit, but this is what it looks like from the top.
 hell yeah, it's discounted


*I should really learn how to use the tripod so I can include what thses things really look like live and in color.

Things In The Sky: Stars and Dragonflies

More things on shoes. Though this post is generally more sparkly than the last, I cannot promise you that this will be the last time my red pumps will show up. I'm now going to find my other blanket then brush my teeth, but ignore me and scroll away.

Shoes from Muji. It's a dragonfly. NOT a butterfly

What the raw photo would look like. I'm so flattered to have such a bejeweled
insect going about my shoe
DRAGONFLY necklace borrowed off an Aunt (meaning I don't know where it came from )


I used an ancient camera for this shot. Not
Red pumps from Payless. Necklace from Hong Kong.


Sexy back. Sparkly back. Yeah (thinks of Happy Feet 2 trailer)

Rings Fetish

I've been really busy lately...either that or i have a really bad sense of time management. But anyways, I have taken a huge batch of photos today and will sort them into collections so i have a constant stream in the coming weeks. Have an awesome time with my newly acquired editing skills!


My dear friend got me this because she remembered that I loved stars. Isn't it adorable?
I got the shoe in Hong Kong too btw
Muji shoes from HK 

Because studs add the right amount of rocker chic vibe
Accessorize rings, Comfort plus Payless red suede shoes

The textured stacking rings are in earth and metallic tones, so I thought the wooden heel
would sit it more

Via Spiga (it was on sale) , forever 21 rings again


So this is everything put together...and my red suede comfort plus pump
                         
Photography needs work but I adore the shades
of the picture like a long lost photo
Aerosoles shoes borrowed of one of my many relatives for this purpose alone

Le Bonne Vie

I don't speak French, in fact I could only say "I'm not sorry" in French. Ironic isn't it? I forgot the entire sentence of which those words were part of, but forget about me and check out this really cute from accessories my friend, Erika. She's got excellent taste


Amethysts for eyes. Purple anyone?
Also, can anybody see the Tucan and its long terrain of feathers in the back?

I learned how to used the effects on iPhoto today and it brought the ridges of the owl's eyes.
 It's not much for now but it's a start to less raw photos.

Le bonne vie; the good life. Or so google translate says. I used my newly acquired skills to
 bring out the brass coloring.

Smudged, almost liked it was painted by brushes. The necklace is a piece of
art in more ways than one that way. 
P.s. thanks to my mom for lending me her ipad cover for the background of this shoot.

Whimsical Blue

While I was scouring the streets of Hong Kong,I had the chance to grab new members for my accessory collection. Some were in these lovely in between pastel and robin's egg blue. Sophisticated but to my taste, I grabbed a necklace for one of my BFFs and a bracelet that I can wear with my bangles.Pus I got off those little kiosks which add to my giddiness as a bargain hunter. hihi


A real golden beauty, snagged it with two other necklaces for a 3 for 100 hk dollar deal. It brings back childhood memories and has a touch of vintage.

The bracelet with the fake pearls and blue stone is the one I bought from Hong Kong's forever 21,
the other one is part of my bangles.

My arm posing as those circular things for bangles. On a related note, this is how
it looks like live and on flesh.

I almost fell of the chair and hit myself on the wall to get this shot.
Anyways, the pearls set off the bracelet along with the twisted textures.

I like how the chains bring more focus to the metallic elements of the bracelet and shape
of the blue crystals.

Chanel Nail Polish: Peridot

I absolutely love my Chanel Nail Polish :) I didn't buy a lot during my shopping trip so i my grandma got me this. The color is just gorgeous and and it dries way faster than my Japanese nail polish. It's like a combination of the good things of my nail polish that way. 

Chanel is famous for its simplicity, down to its nail polish boxes! It really does
exude elegance.

The color switches in light, it might have blueish green tints in some lights
or all gold in others.
The cover should be removed before you can twist
the brush
Who knew that secondary sponsor headpiece would go with my nails?

delicate carnation. See the blueish green tint?

back to gold again.

Gold. See what I mean?! I like the tribal feel the shoes add though
