Self Expression


“Style is a deeply personal expression of who you are, and every time you dress, you are asserting a part of yourself.” 



Since I don't get to wear this kind of outfit daily, might as well express it here at my blog. 

Mango Sequin Top
I wore a black blazer paired it with my Mango Sequin Racer Back Top, floral mini skirt; thrifted and red suede Primadonna wedge.

Welcome to my virtual closet.

                           My site will be a place where I can share my love about fashion and travel. For me, clothes need not be expensive in order to express yourself. 
                           
                           For this shoot, I wore a grey full sequined knitted sleeveless dress, jeggings  (jeans type leggings), a black Balmain inspired jacket and paired it with my cream Ninewest ankle boots.

                            I always love dressing up. Since I'm no rock star, I might as well try to dress up one. *wink*

Special thanks to Frank for my oh so awesome look. :)

“There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and will be lost.”

“All in all, it was a never-to-be-forgotten summer — one of those summers which come seldom into any life, but leave a rich heritage of beautiful memories in their going — one of those summers which, in a fortunate combination of delightful weather, delightful friends and delightful doing, come as near to perfection as anything can come in this world.” ― L.M.
