Pandemonium!
downtown find accessories, except for full stud bangle--gift from the boyf from the States. prized possession.
vintage animal print shirt from Mom's closet, black textured bodycon from Forever 21, thrifted studded boots
All hell broke loose over the weekend as Forever 21 FINALLY opened its very first Cebu branch. I think Cebu just waited too damn long for their F21 fix, so just imagine the hysteria of finally having it here. As for me, I was on a self-imposed shopping ban and wanted to wait until the mad hype subsides, but I dragged my ass on over during the opening anyway as I also needed an outfit for a wedding the day after. Besides, I didn't want to miss out on the fun of seeing all the mayhem from the incredibly anxious and eager shoppers. Hehe.
As expected, the turnout WAS insane as hundreds upon hundreds rushed in even before opening time. In the very least, F21 made us early birds happy as the first 250 received a 500 discount voucher and a loot bag of toiletries from Procter and Gamble. Paid off for me to actually wake up early to fall in line this time around!
I took off with this small loot from the store, which included this alloy plate necklace (needed one), leather jacket (can't have enough leather), bandage skirt (wedding!), and my super happy purchase, the spiked headband. Been meaning to DIY the Givenchy spike headband from seasons back, but this is a gorgeous and effortless alternative. Can't wait to wear!
Thank you so much for the love, you guys. Oh and don't forget to join the giveaway if you haven't xx
