Summer Remix Recap

And so here are all 30 looks...Whew! That was one rollercoaster ride! I must say, this really entertained me and kept my mind away from the stress at work. It somehow gave me a reason to get up and not be lazy to get out of the house..I know work should be my motivation, but lately I'm not too inspired by it! haha! 

There were outfits that I had played in my mind even before wearing them and there are a lot here that totally surprised me...I have to admit towards the latter part, you tend to get more creative since you are running out of clothes to match...but I think that's the fun of it. The more I ran out of the usual pairs to match, the more creative and more colorful my outfits turn out! Yay! Till the next remix!


To everyone who left comments and emailed me, thanks for the support! You will always be my inspiration! Thanks for all the kind words and laughing with and at me! ♥♥

Day.30

Finally! I'm done with my summer remix! Yay! Well, technically I was done weeks ago, just couldn't find the time to post everything as I was just too busy with work! 





I am giving myself lots of pats on the back! Participating in this challenge proved to be the most challenging thing I had done in terms of managing my shopping habits, my constant fashion bingeing, and my constant battle to get ready in the morning...believe me, it's always a struggle..and I always find myself saying, "I have nothing to wear!"





Thanks Kendi for inspiring others like me to be smarter and to know their closets better! I definitely learned a lot! Till the next remix! I totally had a great time!

Day.29





Combining 2 of my favorite elements this season: bold color and stripes!!! I love how well they went together, can't believe I didn't think of this outfit sooner!

 

 
Just one of the many days when I just laugh at my silliness.Laughing at yourself once in a while is surprisingly a great therapy! It makes you remember how imperfect we are and how impossibly lovable we are because of those imperfections. So go ahead, give it a try, I'm sure it will leave you smiling... :)

Day.28







Really enjoying the print on this dress! It feels like painting, hence the reason why the first 2 photos were deliberately edited to look like paintings. Don't you just love the spalsh of color. It instantly puts you in a bright mood!

Hope you're all having a great mood today! Keep thinking happy thoughts, it will get you through the hard times ;)

Day.27





Feeling like a schoolgirl! I know I am too old for that, but there's nothing wrong in dreaming of younger days...haha! I just wish I could go back to when I was in college, there was freedom and less stress and more partying! Haha!

Now gotta get back to reality, deadlines, and stress...boo! 

I'm happy to report that I will be doing a guest post over at Austin Sun Drops tomorrow! I hope you all can check her blog too!

Day.26



 Have any of you been watching Californication? After our obssession with The X-Files ended with its series finale (catching up on DVD), A and I thought about continuing on with another one of David Duchovny's show...I was expecting the explicit content but was actually shocked that it was actually played very well. It was hilarious and felt real to me. Can't wait to finish the first season and move on to 3 more...Would love to hear what you think about the show...

Day.25

Hello August! It's nice to finally see you again! Can't believe we're halfway through the third quarter! Today also marks the first day of my new role in the office. Last Friday my boss was very sweet to gather his whole team for a huddle to give some kind words before he takes off for his 3-week vacation. He also took the opportunity to introduce me to the team. Felt really good to be working with him on this new challenge!


I was in a color blocking mood.At first, I thought color blocking with bold colors would be screaming 80's, but when I think about it, it actually looks very modern and so happening!




Don't you just love my house of harlow black resin necklace? I know I'm in love with them! I hope I won't be too obssessed using them till they fall off my neck!!

Day.24

Weekend has finally arrived! I just can't get enough of the weekend! Looking forward to pamper myself with a mean massage, a time in the salon, and some quality time with my nails.

Feeling some hippie vibes for this outfit post. It's amazing how accessorize can change the vibe in an instant! I never used to like accessories, thinking they're just waste of money...but now, I'm just really loving it! My favorite bloggers have helped me embrace the art of layering and sprucing up an outfit with these babies!






Hope you will be pampering yourselves this weekend too! Let's relax and enjoy this weekend!

Day,23




Felt like doing a sexy secretary look. If I had some glasses, it would've worked even better! I used to wish I could be an actress when I was younger. I really enjoyed doing plays when I was younger. It gave me an excuse to be somebody else and not feel bad about it. Getting into character is the most interesting part of acting. Once I read the script, I start to imagine what mannerisms, accent, and demeanor my character should have so that I can really call it my own. It just occurred to me how much I miss acting...I miss my creative self!

Day.22

Can't believe the weekend is over! I'm too sad to get up and go to work today! I just want to take off and have a mini vacation! The beach would be great since it is scorching out the past few days! The sun is mighty angry lately!

As promised, I will slowly be uploading the rest of my summer remix...

Day.21

My weekend consisted of 3 things: sleeping, eating, and drinking! I was too stressed out last week that I felt like I needed to catch up on sleep and indulge in sinful, greasy food and great wine! Felt like the whole weekend just sat on my belly and would probably stay there for a while...The guilt was killing me but I couldn't get myself to go on the treadmill...this is what happens when I feel so tired from work..I always have the urge to reward myself...and since I cannot shop yet, I had to do the next best thing (did I mention sinful?) which was eat!





The only time I went out was to go to mass, eat out, and have drinks..no errands, no mall time! It was great! DVD marathon of Gossip Girl and Brothers and Sisters kept me company!




Pardon the photos, I just noticed that even my camera was feeling a bit lazy this weekend...maybe feeling a bit sleepy too! This is actually the my last outfit for Kendi's 30 for 30 challenge...Just haven't had the time to upload everything just yet...promise to upload the rest in the coming days
