My style. I'm all about being simple and natural in my own kind of way. I'd like to describe it as a touch of glam with my own personal style.
Shopping musts. I usually shop in Hong Kong and some online stores but H&M and Forever 21 are my top favorites! I'd never leave both stores without buying anything.
Style icon. Kryz Uy!  I just love her style from head to toe.
Style influence. Growing up in the province has made me dress up as simple as possible especially with my strict dad. Secretly though, I read through style magazines and watched shows like ANTM, Project Runway, and FashionTV. After a while, it suddenly hit me that I just want to be like them!
Closet colors. When you peek into my closet, it's definitely full of blue hues. I'm crazy about blue! Even when I tell myself that I have too much blue, I just end up buying something blue again!
Favorite accessory. I don't actually have a favorite, but you would barely see me wear earrings, that's a fact.
Not wearing. Pink! I hate pink ever since I was a little kid. I never bought or wore anything pink at all. 
Trend return.Those high-waist pants and shorts! I'm really happy that they are actually back in style!
Bargain buy. I have tons of best bargain buys! Hong Kong is my sale destination. But if I have to choose one, it would be my Forever 21 neon orange satchel that I bought for P300.
Vintage love.  I recently got hand-me-downs from my dad, one of which was his Police retro glasses. They're awesome and they're about thrice my age. I'm happy that they're back in style!
