CHEESECAKES AND CROSSES: June 2013

Chill Day, Sailor Pants

Hey hey! Since Sunday's pretty much the only chill day I have, I like to dress comfortable yet still quite presentable!

So for today's look, I went for a plain black v-neck top, high waisted sailor pants with a cute brown belt, and my trusty black wedges!

I must say that basic pieces like this black v-neck is ALWAYS a must-have in every girl's closet! Perfect for matching with absolutely anything!

I absolutely love these high waisted pinstriped pants, because I love anything high waisted and it has a certain "sailor" feel to it. So to make the pants stand out, I opted to keep the rest of the details of my outfit simple.

I'm proud to say that I spent my long weekend productively, by balancing my time with school, family, and friends. I hope everyone had a lovely weekend too!

Polka Dot Ruffles

Hey there! Today's agenda was a night out with the fambam, so I wanted to dress up a bit. Highlight of the night was watching the prequel to my favorite childhood movie, Monsters University!

So for today's outfit, I went for a white 3/4 ruffled sleeve blouse, a black and white polka dot skirt, and my trusty Doc Martens!

I absolutely love basic pieces that have unexpected details on it, such as the ruffle on the sleeve of this white blouse.

And as you can see, I absolutely adore this skirt! The moment I set my eyes on it, I just knew I HAD to get it. Not too flouncy, not too straight. Just the right dose of cuteness I'm craving for.

And of course, the Docs! I've had these shoes for quite a long time now, and it's still as sturdy as ever. Plus points for being stylish too!

Toughing Up Velvet

Hey guys! I'm quite in a perky mood because of the 3-day holiday. School's been quite taxing lately, and it's wonderful to just stop and get a breather from everything. To start off the long weekend, I went out to see World War Z with some of my friends, and boy were the varied reactions from the audience quite amusing!

So for today's look, I went for a Black Velvet Top with studs, my DIY high-waisted denim shorts, and black flats with hints of sparkle on them.

Since today's agenda was a pretty casual affair, I decided to go for a pretty casual outfit.

I absolutely ADORE this black velvet top with studs on them, because first of all it's absolutely versatile. It could be worn for casual and semi-formal occasions and still manage to look quite pretty! And I absolutely love the color black and studs, so this shirt is a win for me!

I decided to go for my high-waisted denim distressed shorts with matching studs, to add the casual vibe to the look. Denim, high-waisted, and studs=another win for me!

And finally, some subtly sparkly black flats to add a bit of pizzaz to the outfit! Casual yet noticeable. Another big win! I also decided to go for flats because my feet were quite bruised form the heels I had to wear for our division mass in school. Thank god for flats! Such lifesavers.

I hope to be posting more looks soon, since it is the weekend and weekends are my only avenue to dress up. Have a wonderful Friday everybody! :)

Minty Bustiers

ASOS

Hey there guys! Just wanted to share my inspiration for the day! As you can tell, I love mint colors and bustiers. I believe that mint is an absolutely perfect color, since it is always pleasing to the eye. As for bustiers, they're quire versatile because you can pair them with a skirt, high-waisted shorts, or anything that strikes your fancy!

I hope you guys enjoyed the collage I made, and I'll try to post more updates soon! :)

Hey, Cat Valentine!

Hey guys! So as you can see, today's outfit consists of a denim bustier, a floral jacket, a light pink flowy skirt, and black boot wedges!

I'm off to have a movie date with my dad and my brother, and I guess this is my version of going for a casual but girly look.

I love how the denim bustier gives a vintage touch to the outfit, and how the black boot wedges temper the sweetness of the skirt and the floral jacket.

My inspiration for this outfit is actually Ariana Grande-ish (hence the title), since she always tends to wear bustiers, flowy skirts, florals, and pastel colors.

So yay!! That was my first official outfit post. Have a happy weekend everyone! :)

Previews, Glimpses, and Throwbacks!

Hey guys! Since I'm pretty new to the world of blogging, I figured that I might start out by giving you guys a glimpse of what you're gonna be seeing in my blog! So basically the next set of pictures are all my previous outfits that I never got to share, so as to give you a heads up on what you'll be seeing here!

As you can see, my outfits don't have a certain consistency pertaining to style. Sometimes I'd dress up in bright colors, other times I would take on a toned-down hue. Sometimes I'd wear something extremely girly, then I'd switch to something casual the next day. I'd like to think that my style is quite varied, or maybe I'm just going through a process of figuring out my own sense of style. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed my first official post, and I hope you also enjoy the next posts to come!
