Berries

I think I forgot something! Oh yeah, I forgot to blog about my last outfit in Hongkong or to be specific in Macau. What's that they say, better late than never! Let me just go straight to what I wore. 

The most effortless thing to wear are dresses, and I'll 100% vouch for that. They are just so easy and they make you look like a lady. Especially dresses like this, don't you just love it's collar? It's so pretty and sweet. I would die for dresses like this, that's why i envy Jess from New Girl, that girl has a lot of cute dresses and I want them all!

Dress: Thrifted | Bag: Coach | Shoes: Suprafame

Oh!one more adorable thing about this dress is it's print, this dress can't get any better :) 

There's nothing more to say about this look, it is just plain adorable. 

But what's not adorable right now is the fact the we don't have any internet connection. It's been a week that we're disconnected from the virtual world and there are pros and cons. Cons, my blog and youtube channel are suffering. I can't post a single entry in any of them. Pros, I am more into my studies. And now that I think of it, it's kinda good that we got disconnected, God does move in mysterious ways. 

Have a good day!

Look who decided to blog, Me!

I know! I know! It's really been awhile since my last post in this blog, it's been two months to be exact. I won't do the apologizing routine that all bloggers do when they had an unannounced hiatus. Instead I would just say, it's a new day and it's time to start my blog running again. 

Before I'll go with my outfit I would like to update you on the things that I've been up to these past few months.  First of all, I've been quite committed to my Youtube Channel, TheThriftyHannako, and now I have 1,900+ subscribers/friends and I couldn't be more thankful and happy. And I guess that is also a minute reason why I haven't been blogging. But if you want more than 1 OOTD or if you want fashion  how tos then my channel is right for you ;) And the second thing would be me having my first internship as a pharmacy student. It's a one month internship which leaves me having only one month vacation. But so far I'm enjoying this internship and am learning a lotttt!

So now shall we go to my outfit? Yes we can! LOL

This is again one of my typical go-to outfits. I wore this when I went to church and knowing I'm going to a holy place and not a fashion event I decided to dress appropriately. And for me the most appropriate attire is composed of pants. This is just to avoid all those blinding and scary glares and stares from elders, they can be really scary sometimes. 

I have seen bracelets like this everywhere and I noticed that  it's one of the favorite pieces people use for their arm candy and I can't blame them because it's so freaking cute. I know these pieces ( those with cross figures) can be a little controversial sometimes but I'm a catholic myself and I'm not offended when someone wears something with a cross on it. 

I bought this bracelet along with two short necklaces in an online store I recently found. It's called Trinkets For Keeps and they sell dainty jewellry pieces which i've been also really liking. 

As usual I went with my favorite color hue, PASTELS. It's just so springy and me! And that's all it takes for me to dress up like a cotton candy. 

Blazer: Forever 21 | Pants and Top: ChicLabel | Necklace: Accessorize

I've been thinking about posting my videos here in this blog but I'm not a 100% sure if you'll be ok with that so I would ask you a favor to comment on what you think about this idea.I would like to thank all of you for the continued support, I now have 100 followers/friends that's is just amazing! 
Have a nice day

Miss Tapia

Here's another outfit post from last year. Wow! That sounded like it's been so long LOL.

This is what I wore to our block's christmas party and it was last December 21, the same as the day of Paskuhan. 

Let me just tell you a story why I chose this title. So I was preparing for the party not really having an inspiration for my outfit and I just grabbed these pieces and hope they'd go together. I put my hair on a bun because my brother thought it would go with my outfit and I eventually  went to school. And as I entered the room where the party will be held, a few of my block mates were like Miss Tapia! And I thought it was funny because my outfit kind of resembles a teacher uniform *laugh. If you don't know who Miss Tapia is, you can google it because honestly I don't know much about her also. 

Loafers: Supra Fame

 Blazer: BU4( Bestie Konisis) | Dress: Thrifted | Bag: Thrifted

I really like how simple this outfit is, because there are just those days where my laziness get to me and that affects on how I dress. But outfits like this are so convenient. It did not take much of my time and energy since it only composes of two clothing pieces and sometimes minimalistic dressing can be a real statement( I probably mentioned this for the millionth time lol ). 

Now I can see where the teacher thing is coming from but I hope I portrayed that in a good way.  No offense to all the teacher's out there :)

This outfit also shows why I love blazers so much. They do not only cover my man-like arms but they also can really amp up an outfit. What do you think? 

So I decided to post once every other day. In that way I can be a consistent blogger and at the same I can do school stuffs in between days. And I hope that schedule will work if not I can always make a new one :) 

That's about it! As usual I have a ton of things to do. And I just can't seem to start doing them without blogging first. Is that a bad thing? Oh well, that's me! 

I'll end this post by saying, laziness is really the enemy of students like me (Or is it just me? tsk tsk).

Bloggers United 4

ACK! It's time to share my first Bloggers United experience. 

This is very exciting for me since I have been waiting for that time to finally see my favorite filipino fashion bloggers and I'm so happy I finally met them in personal. I think I have been good this year that's why Santa gave me an early christmas gift :)

Let me just describe my feelings that day. So it was a Saturday and annoyingly, we have a class from 11am-3pm so I have to wait anxiously the whole period not even listening to a word my professor is saying, that's how excited I am. 

As soon as we were dismissed(My prof bare with me and dismissed us early), I squeaked and literally were so anxious to get home. We went to the World Trade Center as fast as we can. There's like this little aisle that we have to walk through to get to the Bloggers United area and I was shaking the whole time. I began to see familiar faces and I was like smiling and just wanted to pinch myself just to make sure I'm not dreaming LOL. We decided to spend a good half hour just to take picture with all the bloggers and collect ourselves from the shock that day brought. Anyway too much excitement here, I think I just have to let the pictures speak for themselves. 

Camille Co of Camille tries to Blog

Camille was actually late from work but then as soon as she arrived, she began to entertain all of her fans and took pictures and interacted with them. She was so sweet and very down to earth. Seeing her is definitely the perfect way to end the year 2012.

Laureen uy of Break My Style

Kryz Uy of Thirsty Thought

David Guison

Lissa Kahayon of Scene Stealer

I just have to take a picture with them together. They are so cute !

Patricia Prieto of Paradigma

I really like Patricia's style(Wow close! Kung maka-first name basis naman! LOL). We don't share the same style but I think she is the only blogger that has a really defined style and I adore her for that.  

Vern and Verniece Enciso of Verniece Enciso and A Shoetale

Ashley Dy of Candy Kawaii Lover

Ashley was actually a Japan-based fashion blogger and I'm not very sure but I think at every Bloggers United there is at least one foreign blogger to join the event. 

Kookie Buhain of Death by Platforms

Miss Kookie definitely has the best collection of statement shoes :) I actually bought my only purchase from her. 

Dani Baretto of Style is Eternal

Bjorn Bedayo

I love that our outfits look so cohesive :) He is a very talented blogger and I love his very preppy style. 

Tracy Ayson 

Nicole Santos

Alyssa Lapid

And look who's there to shop! Jeron Teng, a player from the other side LOL

Can you guess which of these two shoes I ended up buying? 

And that's my BU4 experience. At the end it's not about the idea of shopping clothes from bloggers but seeing them in their human form. Wow, that came out wrong. What I'm trying to say is, when I look at their blogs and read their entries I have the feeling that I can't reach them but after this day, I now knew that they are normal people who just loves doing what they do.

P.S. More on my outfit in my next post!

College Girl

I thought I'd blog first before diving on to a pile of homework that I have to do tonight, so lets do this!

 I just want to share you what I wore on the Pharma night held last tuesday. It's a variety show and a fashion show featuring different talents from the Faculty of Pharmacy. There are also numbers where our professors have to perform. It's amusing seeing them make a fool of themselves for a change, and I meant that in a good way :) 

I just want to have a good time hanging with my friends to I settled with pants instead of anything else. I went all out preppy and personally this can pass of as a college uniform. I would be so happy if this is going to be our uniform, Sooooo happy! LOL 

I went with my trusty ol' peter pan collar shirt to give it a more 'prim and proper' vibe. And for the final touch I tied a bow with the shirt. Can you imagine the outfit without the bow, it's just going to be a boring and mediocre outfit. Accessories-wise, I wanted to compliment the color navy with another dark color which is obviously, burgundy! I just love how they both look so rich and expensive. For shoes, nothing beats a classic, so I brought out my loafers once and for all. 

Top: Landmark | Trousers: Forever 21 | Shoes: Primadonna

Pearl Bracelet: Thrifted | Braided Bracelet: Simone's Closet

I would just have to say that this ensemble pretty much describes my style.

 So if I will ask you, what's your style?

Marshall, your apartment is crooked!

Last Saturday, my brother and I decided to watch the Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2. It's what everybody has been talking about in our class the day the movie was screened so they have been giving away the best parts and I just didn't take it anymore so we watched it on the second day of showing. I must say, it's great movie, epic ending and amazing plot.   

Before we talk about the outfit, let me explain to you my title first. Seeing the first picture below? Did you notice something regarding the floor? Yes, the parking floor is crooked! Haha, this reminds me about one particular episode in the How I Met Your Mother Series, hence, the title. I really adore that show. But honestly, their latest season is a little disappointing. I was expecting more out of it because  it's their season finale. Well,  I'm not sure of it so don't quote me on that. Some HIMYM fans out there might hate on me LOL. It's just such a bummer. Nonetheless, I am still a fan and I still want to find out who The Mother is.  If you're an avid fan of HIMYM like me, let me know what you think of the first seven episodes of season eight?  

Moving on, this outfit is an example of a subtle mixing of prints, exhibited by  my top and skirt. I think this is a more classic take on the print on print trend. To jazz it up a little bit, I used my gold kinda oxford shoes. These shoes reminds me of something Camille Co would wear, don't you think so too? 

Top: Thrifted | Skirt: Thrifted

My hair looks so healthy here, I wish it's always like this. 

Bag: Divisoria

Necklace: Accessorize

Accessories-wise, I think I always stick to the line Less is More. I'm not saying I'm against accessorizing or for some excessorizing, actually, I adore accessories. Its just that, on days like this, it's just better to keep it simple. And when the need arises, I'll put my accessories on, and bring it! LOL

Oxford shoes: Trunkshow (Divisoria)

And it's a wrap! This outfit is probably one of my favorite.  It's comfortable and classy, just the way I like it. 

P.S. I just did a haul video on my youtube channel, check it out if you want to :)
