  It was quite weird that number 3 became essential for my look.  Here are the reasons: 1. I tried 3 looks. 2. MY LB LOOK cap had number 3. =) Here’s my LB shot:  YOU CAN HYPE ME HERE.   We ate again in Loteria but this time we tried Cheese Burger and some Ice cream (which reminded me of Mc Flurry at Mc Donalds in the Philippines). 1.     NBA CAP. 2.     ARTWORK TEE. 3.     SWATCH...

Here it is:  HYPE ME I decided to incorporate my favorite book entitled TIM GUNN’S FAHION BIBLE (by the way...

Yes, we already moved to a new apartment. Quite far but with many good locations for my lookbook.  He he he. In front of our building Mr.Bean’s ‘look-a-like’ car is parked.

So here’s my look:           HYPE ME HERE       What I’m wearing: 1.     TOP from Folded and Hung. 2.      BOOK from PRACTICAL...

Mingalabar! We’re moving into a new apartment.  It’s quite tiresome. Right now, I’m taking a short break while waiting for the other stuff to be brought in. So, before I run out of juicy ideas, I will take the opportunity to write —- now. Well, I wore —- blue. Wait! You might think this will be a boring blog because I’ve talked about the ‘blue’ look...

I am really fascinated with the color——Blue. Besides from the fact that it’s my favorite color it blends well with any color, I guess he, he, he. From my recent look I wore the same shade of neon blue but this time I wore different garments to compliment my ‘nationalistic’ polo shirt. I matched it with jeans and a pair of old school chucks.  Here’s my lookbook shot: HYPE it?  HYPE...

It’s very hot here in Yangon (the temperature reaches up to 39’C) and despite the weather I’m still inspired with my lookbook. I’m really into psychedelic colors this summer, so—— I wore my neon blue DIY tee because it’s more comfortable and compliments the very hot weather. Also, I wore a thin sweater also to protect my skin from the sun.  The sweater would also tone down the...

It’s really going crazy in United States specifically at Boston. I really felt bad about the people affected in the Bombing event. I decided to post a look on ‘PRAYING for US’. Because I know somehow this can inspire others especially the youth. I will always quote what our national hero said (Jose Rizal) ‘’The youth is the hope of the fatherland’’. Youth should engage in...

Thingyan is Myanmar’s Water Festival (New Year), held in mid-April between four and five days.  It’s a much-anticipated Buddhist tradition. We had the chance to catch this festival in Yangon despite our tight deadlines. On the second day of the festival, we were forced to go out because we ran out of food in the house.  Dennis and I went to the supermarket but, lo and behold, all establishments...

Hello, Readers!   I have been very busy for the past few days even it’s holiday here in Yangon. So, here’s the latest. In between breaks, I surfed the net and saw a contest for bloggers.  It has been running for almost a month now and only 2 days were left before the big deadline! Honestly, I had doubts if I could make it with a limited time to campaign. But I still decided to join. Here was my...

   Minga lar bar, Readers! Two weeks ago, I joined the Levi’s LB competition.   You can HYPE HERE. I decided to send another entry since they have extended the deadline.   This time, I focused on a DIY pair of jeans. My vision was to mix silver with black and white. So, I put some salient detailings on the crouch, front pockets, and the bottom layers of my jeans. Since I love buttons, I added...

Hello, Guys! I’m back.  I have another look to present. But, this time, it’s all about traditional Myanmar wear. Last March 27, we were invited to attend a wedding at Kandawgyi Palace in Yangon.  It’s our first traditional Myanmar wedding so we were really excited. Right away, I decided to pull-off a traditional Myanmar wear – a pair of long sleeves, a longyi, and a pair of leather slippers.  I...

Minga lar bar!  That’s the equivalent of “Hello” —- in Myanmar. I decided to join the Levi’s LB competition because I really believe in Levi’s as a denims brand. Levi’s has been an indispensable item in my wardrobe since grade school. Being in the Levi’s LB competition is my own way of giving homage to Levi’s, as it celebrates its 140 years as an iconic fashion brand.  I specifically aimed...

My look for today was inspired from my grandmother’s ideal in life and that is, doing your best to succeed.  My lola (grandmother) died last week specifically March 12, 2013. It was really a sad news for me. The fact that I cannot make it to the Philippines for her burial made me more feel bad. I made videos for my lola to give tribute to her. Videos that represented me in the...

I was tied up with work for the past few days so I really never had the chance to blog.  Well, today is a holiday.  So, I decided to blog again and focus on my special day – my 22nd birthday. Last February 26, 2013, I started my day with my birthday look.  My inspiration was my neon green swatch wrist watch which was a gift for me. (Thanks, J. Dennis). I matched my watch with a tee from...

MTV EXIT.
So todays look was obviously inspired by MTV EXIT. These are the freebies I got and I believe that they also deserve again to be promoted and thanked.  So I mixed my look with psychedelic colors which gave tone to the bracelet, tote bag and tee.  I added my baller cap to give tone to the rocker jeans. Here is my tote bag signed by Kate: Here is my look: You can hype it...

Last February 23, 2013, we had the chance to treat ourselves after a long day at work and after working out. We decided to go to House of Memories because it’s only a walking distance from our apartment.  Also, it was my first time to go there because I always refuse to go there because I always had the perception that it’s way too expensive there.  But I said, “Let’s try and maybe I will...

'SIDEWALK'
Today’s look was inspired by my accessories which contained dark and subtle colors vs bright and loud colors. Whenever I choose my clothes, most of the time I pick them randomly depending on my frequent inspiration. So I depicted my accessories thru my look today. I layered my Dolce and Gabbana shirt with my torennte Mexican patterned polo to balance quirkiness and finely of my top. For my...

The opening remarks was delivered by the head of VIA, the show’s main sponsor.  Then, U Htwe Oo of the the Myanmar Puppet Theatre shared...

MTV EXIT PHOTO CONTEST.
Last January 9, 2013, MTV Exit sponsored a cover photo contest to inspire individuals to join the FIGHT against SLAVERY. I decided to join the competition because I really wanted to take part on MTV Exit’s  campaign to END SLAVERY.  I got interested in the said cause after I watched Jason Mraz’s Concert. (By the way, it was the first foreign concert I saw and also the first foreign concert in...
