Geometric dress from Charm of Everyday Sundaes (acquired during BU4) | transparent clutch with studs from Tonic at The Maze Hipzone | sandals from Staccato
In my honest opinion, there's something as equally striking with severe minimalism and simple shapes as literally "loud" prints and one-off clothing structures. I'm glad that I've always preferred minimalist items with an "edge" anyway, because these items never really age/go out of style. These days, I think the best way to dress for my age with the edge that I've always liked is to just stick to the basics, and just find little ways to mix and stir it up.
One current favorite is this black-and-white number which I got as an "exchange" with fellow Cebuana blogger Charm from Bloggers United 4. Yeah, it's been that long since I've acquired it, but I've only recently had the guts to wear this since I'm a bit more toner these days [or feeling lang. charot!]. Loving the starkness of the piece, as well as the geometry of it. This was a "no-brainer" dress for a lunch out in the mall with the husband, which I paired with simple yet striking accessories for a bit of a twist.
I also just posted this look because I'm having Bloggers United withdrawals, haha. Sad I missed BU5, but hopefully if everything goes well I should be able to make it back to the 6th installment (sana meron pa hehe).
Have a great week ahead!
