Thrift Challenge 1: My First Ukay

S.O.S.

Save Our Style 

You don't have to spend lots of money if you can dress creatively!

My Blog Thrift Challenge! First stop: Ukay-Ukay (Thrift Shop)

This is my first time to buy from Ukay-Ukay (Thrift Shop). My friends are telling me that I should try ukay and I always say no. I don't want to wear clothes used by some random girl I didn't know. But, my perspective was changed! We stopped by at Quezon Avenue to buy some pizza and we saw this ukay store right beside it. My sister and I checked them out and we were amazed of the stuff that they're selling! Most are from China, some are from Europe. 

Luckily, these items I bought still have a price tag! Yes, they aren't pre-loved by some girls. You just have to be patient if you want to see good finds like these. Want to know the prices? Read further. :-)

Paisley top for only 40php

Red leather skirt for only 20php

Necklace for only 100php (Yes, a bit expensive because it's from Divi)

Total: 170php ($4.06). Yehey! Plus, they still all have a price tag!

Mocha leopard wedges from So! F.A.B.

Because I am not yet ready to buy shoes from ukay! Haha.

The Sisters' Chatbox

VAMPED

Any of your keyboard pieces missing?

Trying to mix up white, more white, dark florals and neon. Well, I'm glad that it turned out pretty good. 

About this look. I borrowed the floral jacket from my sister, Chen. It is comfortable and cool that you can wear it even if the weather is hot! 

Floral jacket from Hong Kong.

Neon orange top from Forever 21.

White shorts from Zara.

Thanks to my fellow girLEE, the talented Sarah Oxales for sponsoring me! I chose the Sisters necklace at first because I love necklaces, but who would resist the appeal of her newest Chatbox collection?

Heat of the Moment

SCORCHING SUN

Hello, friends! I'm back!

I entitled this "Heat of the Moment" not because of Miami Heat, but because of Supernatural's S3 Episode 11: Mystery Spot, wherein the song is repeatedly playing over and over. Oh myyy Sam and Dean!! *fangirling*. Okay, let's go back to my blog.

Thank God for the weekend! I wore this outfit on the way to Subic with the family. Checked in at Moonbay Marina and enjoyed our stay of course. What a relaxing getaway, free from stress!

I bought a new tripod! Makes blogging easier. Haha.

Turquoise and gold necklace from Greenhills.
