Dressing by mood. My style is something simple yet chic. I also dress up depending on my mood and the weather.
Shopping haunts. I usually shop at Zara, Forever 21, H&M and markets like those in Hong Kong!
Style icon. My style icon is Lauren Conrad. I love how her style is girly and not too trendy!
Influential. I get most of my inspiration from magazines and TV shows but I also like browsing through sites like Lookbook.
Print effect. I have a lot of bright colored garments in my closet. I'm also very much into floral and aztec print!
Golden. My favorite piece of accessory would have to be a gold bangle. It goes well with anything and can be worn from day to night!
Never ever. Animal print leggings and colored jeans. I'd probably look funny wearing them!
Trend, please come back. High waisted trousers and pencil skirts. They always look so classy!
Best bargain buy. My best bargain buy would have to be a floral print belt for just under 50 pesos!
Hand-me-down. Most of the vintage pieces I have in my closet are from my grandmother. She has a lot of collared blouses with beautiful print and intricate details.

5 in 5: Kiefer Ravena

What are your pre-game rituals? "Before a game, I eat at a certain time. I always drink my sports drink before the game. I listen to a playlist I have in my iPod."
Who are your sports idols? "My dad. Siya yung nag-introduce sa akin sa sport so I owe it all to him. I like Kobe Bryant. He's a hardworker—yung work ethic niya ibang klase. That's why everybody respects him kahit marami siyang haters. Locally, I compare my game to the PBA guards Jimmy Alapaag, Jason Castro, and LA Tenorio. I like to compare my games to them para at least may level akong gustong maabot.
What's the sweetest compliment you've ever received? "Humble. Yun ang tinuro sa'kin ng parents ko, na kailangan maging humble ka talaga. Even though you are achieving so much, success is very dangerous. If a person succeeds too much, it can be his downfall also."
What's your comfort food? "Cheetos. After school, nood lang ng TV, NBA, tapos Cheetos."
What's the first thing you notice in a girl? "Feet. I don't know why but feet talaga pinakauna kong tinitingnan."

Look We Love: Bestie Konisis' Chambray Dress

Bestie Konisis of The Capricious Club looking cool and casual in her thrifted dress, second hand flats, Payless tote, and SM boater hat. She finishes off with the cutest bunny ring from Gurly Glam.

Want to cop her look but don't have the same luck in finding chambray dresses in a thrift store? Make it work with a denim top and denim skirt (works better with a skirt that has a gartered waist). Tuck your top and pull it out to replicate the dress she's wearing. You can even cinch your waist with a belt to hide where your top and skirt meet.

Back to School: Colorful Memo Board

As your new projects pile up, it's best to be organized so you're always on top of everything! Make this colorful memo board so you can tuck in important papers, receipts, cards, and whatnot.

It would be great if you have a big canvas to play with! If not, you can opt to use an old piece of wood or some sturdy cardboard. Spray on some paint to give it new life! You can also use a corkboard and pin ribbons on to it.
