Full on Friday!


I have full day today so I chose this look as the combo gave me a sense of work but also gave a strong hint of the coming weekend.

I'm totally Pinoy as in brown-skinned and a lot of people told me never to wear pastels since the light colors will make me look darker. But I've always wanted to wear pink and wanted to prove to myself that I could pull it off; and then I happened to chance upon a long sleeved polo that was on sale at MAXWEAR so what have I got to lose?

The dark Freego jeans (used to be black) but after countless bouts with the washing machine and the labandera's "palo-palo", it's still dark but no longer black. I also chose grey-colored PONY sneakers recommended by my friend from PONY marketing, Donna Santos (who told me that grey was the new black). To top off the look, I chose to wear my PUMA Motorsports watch in with a white dial and a red and black strap from LTIMESTUDIO.

I lost a pair of my "el-cheapo" shades from SM again so I had to scrounge around my closet and found my old MOSSIMO shades given to me by my friend.

So with that, Happy WEEKEND everyone!

Should I buy the PUMA Easter Basket?

I just love sneakers!

A friend of mine, Andy Smith is selling a PUMA Easter Basket. I don't know what's so special about it except that they do look pretty neat. Researched a bit and found this on the web via http://sneakernews.com.



The Puma Basket might not be as famous as its similar siblings the Clyde and Suede, but there’s little doubt these are the best fit for this pack. The Puma Easter Basket is a play on words that translates well to the lowtop silhouette.

The black joints feature icy greenish-blue and deep purple accents. It favors an Easter egg design in lieu of the Puma logo on the heel tab.

Hmmm at Php2,500 it does seem like a steal. So what do you think?

Sleek Shoes Make Fat Feet Look Sexier


I've always loved shoes because no matter how big you are, shoe sizes tend to be pretty standard and one need not worry about the sizing too much --- if you're a size 11, chances are you are a size 11 for all shoe-brands. I saw this Nike sneaker in the COMPLEX LIFESTYLE STORE in Eastwood. I shunned NIKE sneakers for a time since they have a bad habit of breaking apart if you don't use them often enough --- the glue that holds the uppers to the sole just turns to powder - but hell, if I get this then I'll just wear it more often.

The Nike Flyclave, is a no-fuss sneaker which is very similar to the Nike Flash. What I love most about it is the ultra slim profile that makes my fat feet look sexier. It features a combination of leather and suede on the upper, a super sleek EVA midsole, perforated Swoosh, and a rubber outsole --- simple enough to wear in the office (if you do work for a no-uniform, casual company that is). By the way it costs Php3,495. (Hopefully my friends from COMPLEX can give me a discount).
