I love the color blue in every shade especially in clothes. I have tons of blue inside my closet! But this blue is becoming a trend right now, the color Teal. I see this color everywhere and I've been purchasing lots of teal items lately. It's very pastel, it's between blue and green. It's new to the eye because only a few people wear teal-colored clothes. 

I love how this skirt is a combination of teal and light yellow! The pastel colors made the pencil skirt less serious. Pair it with a simple white top and heels and you're good to go! 

Got this lovely ensemble from NOUN PH! A new online store that sells chic casual clothing. Their clothes are their own design and is locally manufactured so you can have them be done in your size! They just launched their first collection so you better be shopping NOUN PH real soon!:)

So this is my first outfit post for 2014! YAY! Sorry I'v been a very irresponsible blogger lately by not updating my blog regularly. I've been busy with work and the lot but I promise to update every once in a while! :)

How are the first weeks of 2014 treating you so far? Me? I'm doing okay, I've been busy but I really enjoyed the holidays and I'm looking forward to more amazing things that will happen this year.

I haven't talked about new year's resolutions. I don't believe in this anymore. I believe if you want to resolve something, you don't have to wait for next year to do it, just do it right away. haha! But I have 3 goals this year, TO TRAVEL, TO SPEND LESS AND SAVE MORE, AND TO STAY FIT AND EAT HEALTHY.

You, what are your 3 goals this year?:)

XOXO

Honestly, I feel uneasy whenever I wear cropped tops during day time. People here in the Philippines are not accustomed to seeing girls showing a part of her torso while walking down the streets. haha! I commuted that day to my event and yes I wore this while commuting, I just buttoned down my blazer to cover my skin. hihi So there another tip for girls who commute like me! You can still commute without sacrificing style!;)

So I wore this to the Pump Juice Bars Grand Opening at The Hub, Greenfield district. The weather is soooo unpredictable so I always layer these past few days. I'm not a 'pants' girl so I wear shorts and skirt most of the time. 

By the way, have your tried Pump Juice Bars? You should!!! Try Breakfast Blaster! You won't regret it! Watch out for my next post to know more about their grand opening!:)

Trends has it's way of coming back. This cute cropped top trend is back once again. My grandmother tells me she sported this look waaaaay back when she was still a young lady like me. Must be nostalgic for them to see people dress the same again as they were before. hihi 

Anyway about this look, I wanted to wear something lady-like that day because I'm attending a beauty event: ZA Cosmetics. (will blog about the launch on my next post) I wanted to wear this cropped top since it's been hanging inside my closet since my birthday. Went shopping for basics on my birthday week. Glad I thought of a way to use this cropped top in a lady-like manner. I wore this black skater skirt with it. I wore it in high waist so it won't look too revealing. The use of gold accessories matched this Red and Black look perfectly! Plus my animal printed heels made it look classy and elegant. I'm so happy that I wore this that day because it's scorching hot outside. Speaking of cropped tops, I think these are very versatile pieces. You can wear it in different occasions. You can layer blazers or vests to look formal or for the cold weather and you can just wear it with shorts, skirts, or pants for a casual look. Style tip? Wear it with a high-waisted bottom for a more conservative and classy look!

Share me your take on cropped tops! Comment your blog post/photo links below!:)
