These wedges and I are MFEO*. I saw this pair last year but right when I was about to pay for them, I saw some stains on the leather so I decided to forego buying them. But just my luck, I found a similar pair when I dropped by the store again during my recent Manila holiday...and at half off!
They remind me of Marni wedges. I think they will look great with socks or stockings too.
Picked this up from Sapato Manila located at the Powerplant Mall in Rockwell. I always make it a point to drop by this store since I love the quality of the craftsmanship of their products.

Happy New Year, friends!
Sorry for the lack of updates in the last 2 weeks. I've decided to take a mini break during the holidays. But now, I've got lots of photos to share and some great purchases from Manila that I will share with you in my next post.
On my first day back to work, I decided to keep the festive spirit by color-blocking bold hues of blue and salmon.
Hope you had great holidays.
I was wearing: Tee from Topshop, H&M cobalt blue pants, belt from Uniqlo
Sorry for being MIA. Between traveling home, doing some last-minute Christmas shopping and getting horribly sick, I haven't got much time for my blog lately. I promise I'll be posting some outfits soon.
Except for some comfy espadrilles (picked up after walking around Greenbelt all day in heels) and a navy boyfriend style cashmere jumper (from SM Surplus store for only PHP300/$10), I haven't done much shopping at all. I did spy a cute pair of ankle boots in Glorietta but haven't had time to check them out and try them on. Planning to drop by soon when my official holiday starts on Friday.
In case I don't get to talk to you before the holidays, have a good Christmas. May you be surrounded by friends, family and people you love the most.

So my cousin is getting married in March and she asked me to be her Maid of Honor. In the next 2 weeks, we will be going for dress fittings, etc and up until now I still have no idea on the Maid of Honor dress. My cousin is completely letting her entire entourage call the shots with regards to the dress just as long as we follow the color theme: color-blocking using MnM colors too - red, green, yellow, blue and orange, I think.
Before I finalize on a color-combo, I am searching the World Wide Web for some ideas.

Who better to use as color-block inspiration than Prada?! I really love this dress but I am not sure if I can pull off the ruffled hem. And this dress works because of the awesome color combo - I am not sure the MnM colors will hold up well. Also, I want my Maid of Honor dress to be at least re-usable, this would seem sort of dated. It already feels dated, tbh.

While this is from the Ready to Wear collection, I do love this! I love this structured voluminous top and a simple silhouette at the bottom. I may have to apply some minor adjustments here and there like use a different fabric to make more formal and a longer hemline for the skirt.
Now I have to think about which color combo this will work in. The top begs to be in a deeper shade. I feel a light color will make this look very clown-like.
