Peachy

 dress SM GTW

I took this rare opportunity to take pictures in Bonifacio High Street because there were no people outside! haha not a single soul was out there (okay maybe I'm exaggerating a bit, but I swear there were barely anyone outside). This is because today is Manny Pacquiao and Timothy Bradley's boxing match. Everyone was watching and anticipating who will win this really talked about fight. Unfortunately, Pacquiao lost, which brought great distraught to the people in the restaurant where we were eating/watching, but I guess it is inevitable for people to lose or fail at something within their lifespan, and this would be one of those times for Manny. He can this take as constructive criticism and an opportunity to train more. (and he's trending on twitter!)


No, I am not peachy because he lost. It just so happens that I chose to wear peach today(maybe I thought he would win?). I really like this color because it feels very clean and dainty, but not too girly(?)Well anyway, the dress was very flowy and I liked the cut because it wasn't challenging to wear compared to a dress that would have spaghetti straps, etc. I chose nude wedges because I wanted to be comfortable in church and I wanted to have a neutral color because the color of my dress is very pleasant(not loud) to the eyes, and I wanted to keep it that way.


Aside from the excitement from the boxing fight today, I was also very excited to receive a package today. No, not from a special someone or a shipment from an online store, but a package from the province. During the time I was in the province last summer, I had the chance to look at my parents' old clothes that they store there in case they needed or something like that, and I stumbled upon these cute vintage pieces that were my parents' clothes from when they were younger. I instantly fell in love with the patterns, colors, and I was surprised that these clothes are actually quite trendy nowadays and are acceptable to wear again. So while I was there, I chose some clothes that I liked, but then I forgot to bring them here in Manila so I had them sent here. My favorite one is this long black dress that had this flower lace detail in the chest area and is almost long enough to be a maxi. I have so many ideas on how to wear these clothes or how to alter them, and I'm so excited to incorporate them in future outfits!


Comments are much appreciated :)
