utilitarian ambition + shop for charity

3:28 AM





tailored cap-sleeve trench, gifted long-sleeve shirt with leather detail from Vanessa, bandage skirt from Forever 21, boots from Asianvogue Shop, XOXO monogram messenger bag, sunnies from Forever 21

I'm never going to separate from my 50mm lens. EVER. I kinda wanna marry it and have kids with it. Hahaha, jk. Thank you so much mom for finally caving in to what I wanted for Christmas. I swear I'll take really good family photos with it, lol. Definitely the best lens you can get at such an affordable price point!

I took my new lens on a spin in the town through these outfit shots (thank you Yves for taking them). If I were to have a daily uniform, it would be along the lines of this outfit I'd say. A lot of people call my style "edgy" but I'm more of utilitarian quite honestly-I like well-structured clothes that I can work and be mobile with. I definitely plan to be more streamlined where my style is concerned this 2012. This cap-sleeve trench is becoming a fast favorite--I've been on the hunt for a sleeveless/cap-sleeve one for awhile, so you can imagine my glee when I got to score this amazing piece for a bargain:)

Anyway, please support our "Shop for Charity" pop-up bazaar happening already tomorrow! Get dibs at my closet, as well as Vanessa's and Rabsin's--at really really low prices and get to donate to Sendong relief efforts as well. That's at Starting Point-Kartzone Cebu at 8pm. See you!

    Hi Eden! It's such an honor for you to visit my blog. I've seen you on Kookie Buhain's blog. I love your sense of fashion. Very edgy! :) I love a little bit of edginess too. May I ask? What DSLR do you use with your 50mm lens? :) I'm following you now through GFC and bloglovin. hope you follow me back too.
