Men in SEXY Button-Downs

I like how men are oh-so-sexy in button downs, really. Okay, having a nice body with a nice face adds to it, but don't you think guys should wear more of them even on casual occations? Like going to church or a small party, for example. I think it shows how they care about their appearance and that's hot! At this time, both men and women care about how they look. And I must say, some of them are doing very well. The others, try harder, maybe.



OK, I just noticed that both shirts are plaids and I didn't do it on purpose. I couldn't find nicer ones. LOL. I would prefer plain shirts or light stripes, but plaids are good too. They're so fashionable now! It also makes the shirt look and feel more casual so you can look good but not over-the-top. So you won't have to feel overdressed. You blend in and pop at the same time, get what I'm saying. And I notice that MANY guys realise what button downs can change your look. So many guys are wearing them now. GOOD JOB, you guys! :)
I also think what you wear with it matters as well.
PLEASE DO NOT:
pair them with khakis
pair them with corduroy
PLEASE DO:
pair them with skinnies
pair them with fashionable sneakers
pair them with dark wash jeans
pair them with baggy jeans

They Will be Neverfull

I've been looking up some designer handbags. I know I can't afford any of them for now. But I will, soon. HAHA. So I thought, it's never too early to start saving for a good, designer bag. And that's what I'm doing now. Looking up some good large totes for ANYTHING and maybe a college bag. I know it's not a necessity, but it's a luxury, and I want it. Don't get me wrong though. I am NOT spoiled, I am NOT pampered, I am NOT well off, but I'm just average. I don't spend compulsively. I tend to want to splurge on certain items and I tend to stick with that item for a long time until I find a new love. So here are a few that I've been checking out.
If you haven't seen this bag, you should go back to your shell and rot to death! I know it seems typical, but i like this bag. I see SO MANY young girls, chinese especially, carrying this bag around. I don't know why, but I think it's classic and very young looking, and like the name it'll be NEVERFULL. And the best part is, it's LOUIS! Who says no to LOUIS VUITTON? This bag is badass!

Moving on, I saw this coach large tote online and I think it's perfect for college. It's huge, it's black, it's COACH. I mean, it looks very casual to me. And it's cheaper than LV, definitely. And even though I don't usually have a messenger bag or like a sling bag, I like the strap just for extra details, I don't know why. It's just very nice. So yes. Definitely something I'll think about.

THEN! There's another coach bag. It's the classic leather bag. It goes with almost everything. I know, it doesn't look like a good college bag, but I just thought it's pretty. Maybe just one of my everyday black bag, hmm? I have something for big black bags. They make me happy.
I'll end this post here. I'll come back with more of my favs soon :)

Happy 2010 and Taking the HIGH Road

Hello dearies :) I know, I haven't updated this poor blog since the London Bridge was built. But please don't kill me for this. The holidays were on so I took a time off. For those who didn't know I was in Bangkok for 4 days during Christmas. ANYWAY, Happy New Year!! I'm a senior now :D



So today I wanted to talk about my new favourite, the High-Waisted Skirt. I know it's been around for some time. But I never really had them in my collection of clothes. But when I was in Bangkok, I thought I should just get one or more of it just because eveything there is a heap cheaper! So i got one. It doesn't look like the one I have here, cuz it's not a pencil skirt. It's sorta a mini high-waisted. I got a black one with gray stars on it. I don't know why but I really love wearing blacks and grays nowadays. They're like my favourite shades! I mean, yeah I like pink and red and purple and all the other colours in the world, but Black is DEFINITELY topping my list of favourite colours, FOR NOW.

Okay, so I'll talk a little about what I bought in Bangkok. I MIGHT start filming videos and post them up on YouTube just for kicks. If I do, I'll make sure You guys are the first to know :)
In Bangkok, you can almost find everything you want. Clothes, bags, shoes, accesories, sunnies, you name it, they've got it! I felt like a compulsive shopper when I was at the BIGGEST market. Things there are so much cheaper so I didn't have to think twice. It was so simple to get stuff there. Nice? Just grab, pay and move on. It was that simple, literally. Here, you try them on, look at the price tag for just about a gazillion times then think for about another gazilion times then purchase. You just wasted 2 hours there. In Bangkok, you'd have probably bought 50 other items already (unless you run out of cash). So I got this really nice hot red bag. I don't really know how to explain the look, but it's a flashback from the past, definitely. It's not the typical modern tote, it's something YOU might not like. And I think it goes well with my tank+high-waisted skirt combo.

I also bought a few floral and light sundresses for friends and myself. They're just very easy so I got them. Then there was this boutique that sells t-shirts for both men and ladies. I bought 1 on the first day and another on the second day I was there. Both of them are gray. See how obssessed I am!! HAHA. I think I'll continue this another day. OR you know what? I'll just TRY to upload some videos and maybe do a BANGKOK HAUL on YouTube. That'll be much easier and it's better to have illustrations than just reading and imagining from what i have written here. So I'll see y'all soon.
