My style. I actually dress depending on my mood. Sometimes I'm all girly with a skirt and tank top look. Some days I wear my t-shirt and shorts . It's kind of random but I always dress according to my mood, as well as sport looks that also expresses my personality.
Shopping faves. I love shopping at Forever 21 and H&M!
Style icon. There are a lot of style icons I look up to but I love Kryz Uy the most!
Style influence. Being exposed to fashion bloggers influenced me to play dress up in real life. I love how they match their outfits and how they confidently wear all their looks!
Closet. My closet is made up of black, white, or pastel-colored pieces.
Fave accessory. I love necklaces–especially the dainty ones! I actually have a collection of necklaces. I sometimes layer 2 to 3 pieces to add oomph to my outfit.
Never wearing. Leggings for me are a no-no.
Trend return. Denim skirts! I have actually seen some bloggers wear them and I believe it will make a come back sooner or later.
Best bardain. A plain tank top! It's every girls closet'must-have. It basically matches all your bottoms.
Vintage love. There's this old necklace my mom gave when I was 7. I still keep it up to now and it has been with me for 12 years.

From Our Reader: To the Guy Whose Heart I Broke

I have a lot of things to say to you. I don't even know where to begin. But let me tell you first how I felt when I first met you. I know I never told you this but, the first time I saw you, my heart jumped. You see, you made the world stop when I first met you. Even though you ignored me before, I still found you great. Later, I found myself hating your jokes but when we started talking, I thought you were different. You're family oriented, you're hard working and most importantly, you understand. Since then, I never thought of anybody else but you. You brought me sunshine, you brought me life. And I'm thankful I'm with you or been with you for a long time... I guess. For now.
