Don' Let Go

I strongly believe in the saying, "Things happen for a reason." May it be meeting or losing someone, being late for a meeting, getting a new job, skipping a train and whatever you can think of. The difficult part is, you wouldn't know if it's for the better of the worst. Anyway, I just wanted to say that you should never let go of your dreams. Never! Just keep the faith and be optimistic about it.
Moving on... If you follow me on Twitter or Instagram (@jac_pequena) then you already know what's keeping me busy these past couple of weeks. I'm currently a freelance stylist and it can be really stressful and lakas maka-haggard! Haha. So I make sure that I wear the comfiest clothes but still remain chic and presentable. 
I'm currently addicted to all things camo! There's something about it that's so appealing. ♥ Thanks to Ms. Evan of Indie-Go Boutique for this amazing pair of jeans. :)
And since, i'll be walking around and assisting people/celebs with their clothes, I make sure that I'm wearing comfy shoes as well. :)

Quirky

I won't say that I am back, but let's just hope that the blogger bug will stay with me longer. Oh gosh, I missed blogging big time! I just don't have time to take photos or even think of a blog worthy outfit! Anyway, enough of the drama. 
Notice anything different? Yes? No? Hahaha. Okay, it's the wall!! I was in the mood and decided to add some decorations. I'm thinking of adding more. Any suggestions? I also thought that the decorations complimented my outfit very well. It's very quirky and fun! 
I actually got this "scalloped-cropped sweater-top" from Bea Benedicto's booth last BU5. The color is very pleasing to the eyes and the cut is sooo cute!! I wanted the top to be the focal point, so I paired it with white shorts and white sneakers. 
Another obsession!! Fujifilm Instax 7s! I've had this baby for quite a long time now and I thought it's about time to give this little one the spotlight! Oh and it perfectly matched the theme for today's outfit! 
Can I just say that I'm currently obsessed with 926727372 other things!!! Hahaha. I've been doing lots of DIY projects and these bracelets are to die for (or maybe not)! It takes me about 5-10 minutes to make one. 

Too bad you can't see the details of my necklace. But I swear it will appear in my upcoming Snapshot post. You better watch out for that. :)
Can you blame me? I was feeling all giddy and quirky!! Hahaha. 

Anyway, I've been doing lots of things lately. Things that I truly love. Will post details soon. :) For now, let's just be thankful for everything that has and will happen. Keep it comin'! I'm very much ready for it! <3

Casualty of Love

A quick outfit post! I just noticed that I've been wearing a lot of red lately. Well, July is my birthday month! And it's best to celebrate it by wearing this so-called lucky color! Hahaha. 
To add more color, I decided to take this baby out! Blue and Orange = match made in heaven! ♥
I have tons of Snapshots lined up. But for now, i'll leave y'all with an outfit post. You'll be seeing this cutesy rounded shades from Romwe and a lot more. :)

Taking Chances

Aside from the book of Molly McAdams (which I just finished reading! Team Chase or Team Brandon? Hahahah. Anyway...), here I am taking my chances while the sun was up and brightly shining on my life. It was the perfect day to wear a full-on denim outfit!  
I know this outfit has summer painted all over it, but hey! That's the best part when you live in a country like ours! It's like summer all-year... well, minus the beach trips, sleepless nights and hanging out with your friends. 
This denim jumper (or whatever you call it) was actually a gift from my dad. He bought it when he went to Japan. I just wish I came with him. Boohoo. Oh well, at least my dad has great taste too. This is just one of the many things he got for me. Now I know where I got all "this" from. Love you, Pa! ♥
I'm awfully in love with my jumper. Oh, and if it isn't that obvious, the top part can be detached. I love items that can transform into all sorts of things. Hahahah. 
To top all of this denim crazyness. I decided to finish off my look with this denim cap. 
Oh yes, I'm obsessed! :P

My birthday is coming up in 6 days! And I don't have any plans! Hahaha. We'll see what happens.

Wish-Granting Factory

“The world is not a wish-granting factory.” -John Green: The Fault in our Stars. 
So, I just finished reading this epic book by John Green. And I can't seem to absorb how breathtaking it is. I'm such a sucker for anything inspirational and this is just mind-blowing. I also read that they will be releasing the movie version soon. Let's just wish that the movie will be as legendary as the book. *fingers-crossed*
Onto my outfit... If you'd take away the accessories and all those shizz, you'll see a plain and boring outfit. But that's the deal, being the lazy person that I am, I would at times be really unconcerned with what I'm wearing and I thank the people who  artistically created pieces (and i'm talking about accessories) to help someone like me. HAHAHA. 
Can we all take a moment and just stare at this masterpiece??? I mean, c'mon! This is like finding that perfect shoe or piece of clothing you've been dying to have! Hahaha. 
And yes, the bag is an envelope clutch and a sling bag in one! You'll definitely see this bag in this bloggy for a million more times.

Tell Me No Lies

This has got to be one of my most "sabaw" moments! (Sabaw is the state of having a blank and useless brain! HAHAHA.) I can't even think of a title, still swamped and hungover from yesterday's experience. So, what I did was, I listened to my current LSS track to find an awesome line. This is what I ended up with, got it from Can't Make You Love Me by Bonnie Raitt (but I'm currently addicted to Leroy Sanchez' version, look him up on Youtube). 
Anyway, yesterday was extremely fun, except for the insane rain and crazy MRT ride. I've been riding the train but I've never experienced anything like that before. Girls can get really crazy and mean. So, if you're thinking of riding the train, come prepared. Hahaha.
On to my outift, (oooh, I'm in the mood to talk today!) I got my top from Blogger United 5, too bad I forgot whom I got if from. It can actually pass off as a dress, but I chose to wear it this way. I'll try to use it as a dress next time. Since my top is already heavy (literally) with all those metal rings/holes, I ditched my necklace, and wore spikey accessories instead. I was in the "tough" zone yesterday! Hahaha.
