Good Dress Up Pastel Lovin. ELENABLOG











Top, FOREVER 21. Shorts, SM KID'S. Flats, FREEFISH @ RES TOE RUN. Necklace, HISSBLISS. Bag, GRENJ BAGS.

I seldom wear pastel colored outfits because I don't own much pastel clothes but that day we're required to do so. Wore this to the Pretty in Pinkbox event. So glad to find few pastel pieces inside my closet! I've worn this top for like three times already! One of my few pastel pieces! Plus this skort from SM Kids'! Yes, SM KIDS! They still fit me! haha Perks of being a petite lady! SM Kids' have lots of stylish pieces that even my age would love! I was surprised that salmon and teal can actually look good together!

By the way, I think I'm over-using this pair of studded flats from Free Fish! I swear it's so chic and comfy! Every time I wear this, I get compliments on how nice it is! Visit Res Toe Run and shop Free Fish! They have the nicest and comfiest flats ever!:)

Good Dress Up Wade Style Council. ELENABLOG

Wade asked a few bloggers to be a part of the Wade Style Council where in the bloggers will critic Wade's latest collection and decide whether it will be loved by the customers or not. This is one way for Wade to know which style and products will be marketable to the people. Yuki and I were Wade's Style Council for their Women's Shoes and Bags! We're so glad to be a part of it! 
 So we examined the shoes and bags one by one and we write down what aspects that we like and what we don't like. We were honest about this, we considered the price, style, quality, color etc! We had fun doing this! It's actually good to know that you have a say about something.


 Here are some items that I loved in Wade's new collection!:)

This pair reminds me of Blair Waldorf! I think this is something she would wear!haha

This pair looks so comfy and lovely when worn!


This is soooo meee huhu I love this!

My love for ankle straps!

Yuki and I loved this hologram-ish silver flats!

My co-Style Council, Yuki Tansengco! We love that studded Celine-ish Bag and this shoe!:)

Thank you Wade for this opportunity! We're so excited to check out Wade stores soon! Make sure to check them out especially their bags!!! So stylish and affordable!:)

Good Dress Up Corpo Chic + Dream Big. ELENABLOG















 Blazer, SOIREE SM GTW. Black Skinnies, BENCH. Top, FOLDED AND HUNG. Heels, WADE. Necklace and Gold Cuff, HISSBLISS.Bag, Grenj Bags.

When I was in 3rd year college, I started wearing corporate outfits. I have to, it's a requirement. It's the time when I'm applying for internships. Admit it, it's really hard to pull off a corporate attire, besides being boring, it's also uncomfortable to wear. But of course, there's always a way for anything. You have to consider the job that you're applying for. Luckily in my field, I can play up with colors and different styles because I apply for companies connected with retail or anything the creative field. In this look, I wore a pair of black skinny jeans since I'm not a fan of slacks. I wore this white sheer top and layered my striped blazer to make it look corporate. Add accessories to make it look chic but don't overdo it. You can mix and match clothes to achieve a chic corporate attire like a bodycon skirt, a nice top and a pair of pointed pumps. Make sure you'll carry your nicest bag to look more stylish.

Good Dress Up Mr. and Ms. CHE 2013. ELENABLOG

Last July 26, 2013, I was invited by the UP College of Home Economics to be one of their judges for the Mr. and Ms. CHE 2013. Even though I've been invited before in UST to be one of the judges in several pageants, it still feels surreal for people to acknowledge my expertise in this field. I never thought my being a style blogger would qualify me in that spot and actually having a say in the competition. hihi  Anyway, I really enjoy these kind of events. I enjoy judging pageants and seeing how talented these people are. 



 Meet my co-judges, 'Internet Action Star' Ramon Bautista and Teacher Trina.



 The candidates in their Creative Costume.

 I'm so impressed by how these students used their creativity and turned these recyclable materials into lovely costumes! 


 We were asked to do the Q&A portion. (Infairness sa questions, mahirap!haha Kudos to the candidates for their good answers!)

 I feel so honored to judge this pageant with THE Ramon Bautista. 'Surreal' to finally meet him in person. (yes surreal talaga haha) Swear, I'm a fan of this man's wit and perspective on life and love. It was awesome meeting you in person Sir Ramon! Hope to see you again soon!:)

 Obvious naman na nageenjoy kami diba?haha!


 Mr. and Ms. CN won this year's Mr. and Ms. CHE title. Congratulations CJ and Kat!:)

 Spotted : Sino ang tinitignan mo Ramon? I have a feeling happy crush niya tong si Ms. CHE. haha uy?:))


Of course, my mom and my friend Sarah won't let the night end without having a picture with Ramon. hahaha (Di parin makaget over si mommy when Ramon called her my sister hahaha)
 Lakas maka-loveteam ng picture na to. haha!

Thank you UP CHE Student Council for having me as one of your judges. I enjoyed this experience. Congratulations for pulling off an awesome college week!:)
