Spontaneity

We found ourselves stuck in our dormitory room one afternoon until the elder sister thought of strolling outside. We decided to wear our matching vintage-inspired blazers which we both got at a thrift store for only one hundred pesos. Oh the wonders of ukay-ukay! ❤

Our friends often get amazed at how skilled we are in thrift shopping. It’s a matter of being really patient in treasure hunting even if it could get really chaotic and it’s in the way you carry yourself. We spend more on food than on clothes and that’s the major reason why we love thrift shops!

On Didi: head-to-toe thrifted

Didi: “I’m lovin’ this pleated skirt – very girly school girl style.”

Forever 21 earrings, gift from Ate Lorena

On Joyce: scarf print blazer, thrifted; tank top (Didi’s), BobYayin Collections; skort, thrifted; clogs, thrifted; vintage bag (Didi’s), thrifted

The Second Time Around

Remember the Modeling 101 and Personality Development Workshop we have attended during the sem break? The second batch just finished theirs and we gave them a very brief talk about our experience as being a part of the pioneer batch and we taught them some runway tips as well. It’s just so fulfilling that we get to share our knowledge and skills to youngsters like them. So here’s a quick outfit post. ツ

On Joyce: top and shorts, thrifted

collar necklace, Yen’s Butingthings

Joyce: “It’s the second time that I posted the scarf print top and high-waist denim shorts in this blog. It’s a matter of mixing and matching ya know. ツ”

bag, Guess; shoes (Didi’s), Landmark

On Didi: black top, H&M; scarf print top, skort and shoes, thrifted

Didi: “I am so in love with the print of this top and would you believe that it’s a steal for only Php35?”

The A-Fash‘s theme this week was vintage-inspired. It was the elder sister, Joyce, who actually suggested it and good thing the ladies agreed. By the way, yesterday was Frances and Flair’s second monthsary (LOL yes we celebrate it :D). It has been two beautiful months with each one of you our dear readers; let’s journey together even to old-age. Yes, we definitely desire to blog through the years. Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have outfit posts with our respective future husbands and kids? That is, in the distant future. We utterly have no plans to be young mommas, you know. 😀

Scarf prints are making its comeback recently. It has become a summer wardrobe trend wherein its acme was still way back the 1950s-1960s. You see, trends just come and go then come back again so it’s not a must to always wear trendy clothes. You would step it up a notch if you invent and reinvent or better yet, be the trendsetter yourself. ☺

On Didi: scarf print top, skort, and bag, all thrifted; peep-toe wedge, gift from grandma Mommy Nia

Pearl hairpins, gift from Aunt Mommy Ting

Didi: “My friends got so amazed about how I embedded these pearls on my bun. They’re actually hairpins. You can go make your own in a tutorial we found HERE.”

On Joyce: scarf print top and top-sider, thrifted; wool shorts, gift from Didi

Joyce: “In case you’re wondering about what lipstick I used, it’s Lancome in L’absolu Rouge #252.”
