Floral Sunday

23JAN2011-SUNDAY

I can now feel the heat of summer!
Since summer is the season of floral prints and styles, I am now on trend to start my summer with something floral. I'm an avid fan of floral prints that's why I decided to wear a floral dress. It was H&M with orange and purple flower print outs. The dress was very comfortable because it was very light and easy to wear.

What I had On:

H&M floral dress
RUSTY LOPEZ patent pumps
BANANA REPUBLIC bronze cuff
AXXEZZ earrings

Friends Day Out

19JAN2011-Wednesday

I started my day on a gloomy morning. Me and my friends planned for a date in Makati. The weather was roughly raining so I went out with wet Toms. I wanted to wear something comfortable and blue! Me and Karen decided to wear blue since that was our first date together. We roamed around Ayala and ate our lunch in Burger King.

My lunch :)

 After our 'sumptuous' lunch, we headed to Serendra and spent our afternoon there. It was Karen & Yohan's first time at the fort but our excitement led us to our disappointment, it was still raining! Urgh!

Jhake, Ami, Yohan, Karen

We started roaming around the place and bought cupcakes from Cupcake by Sonja. It tasted delicious though you really have to bring enough money to buy one. The cupcake was Php70 each!

Ami and Jake were playing the combo drum game.

Guitars for dummies. Haha:)

Yohan was having fun on a kiddie ride. Haha :)

Karen was taking pictures with her new camera filter. Haha :)

 Besides that it was raining, over all we had a great time!

What I Had On:

H&M plaid blouse
H&M silver hoop earrings
LONGCHAMP le plaige in white
TOMS aqua blue in canvass

DVF Girl

I went to a cosplay event together with my classmates for our events management subject. I wanted to look nice and comfortable at that day cause it took us the whole afternoon of walking and observing. I wore a Diane Von Furstenberg jersey dress that I first saw on Kim Kardashian who is extremely my favorite celebutante. I didn't get a chance to have a decent picture wearing it until I regretted the time I sold the dress online! Brr

 

What I had on:

DIANE VON FURSTENBERG jersey dress

DKNY bag

FOSSIL leather watch

Celebrities Wearing The Same Dress

Who wears best?

See how celebrities still manage to be chic even when other stars wore the same dress.

Paisley Dress On Saturday

 24JULY2010-Saturday (Very late post)

Me and my girlfriend, Klariz, went out the whole day today. It was roughly raining the whole morning so I wore my beaded flip flops instead. I wanted to go out that day looking fresh and comfortable even if it was raining. So, I wore a DKNY gypsy dress together with my Chanel GST bag. 

 The dress was extremely gorgeous in actual even the lady in The Fort asked me where did I get it. My bag was a complete torture on my shoulders! The bag itself was really heavy excluding my necessities inside! After all I've been through I had a great day.

What I had on:

DKNY gypsy dress

CHANEL gst bag 

FOSSIL leather watch

Beaded fit flops 

Forever 21 Is A Counterfeit Chic!

Forever 21 is always being sued by designers for copying their latest design and prints. Try to decipher their differences or similarities and think of how does F21 make their designs 'original'.

 Take a look at the picture above. Same season that was sold though it was DVF's original design. DVF is really expensive but honestly I have clothes from DVF which I bought online for a fraction of their real price. The dresses really look the same from the fabric to the design though on F21 the neckline is straighter and deeper. F21 sells this one for $38.10!

Obviously, even this dress took part of F21's 'design'. They both look the same besides from the front slit.

Anna Sui (left) Forever 21 (right)

One of my favorite designers is Anna Sui because of their dainty yet chic clothes. F21 stole again the throne and copied this design way back in spring 2007. Its pretty obvious that they wanted to make it short and made a blouse out of it. I've seen this one from Anna Sui several times already and it never occurred to me that F21 was actually copying and selling it cheap!

Forever 21 (left) BCBG Maxazria (right)

BCBG Maxazria is always a must have designer on my list. They sell elegant and very sophisticated looks. I honestly don't like this design but seeing this picture is really a below the belt topic for me. They actually look the same because of the laces and you might think that they are both made from one designer. I don't know if F21 sold this one on the same season as BCBG did but I have to say F21 sells this 1/3 of BCBG's price!

Topshop (left) Forever 21 (right)

I'm really not a fan of Topshop though sometimes I truly admire their designs. This design was actually endorsed by Kate Moss and labeled it as 'Kate Moss for Topshop'. Looking at both dresses, they are really the same except from the heart shaped bust line on the left.

 Forever 21 (left) Marc Jacobs (right)

I feel really bad about how F21 tries to steal designs from Marc Jacobs! MJ is my favorite above all legendary designers! I literally wanted to cry on every clothes, shoes, bags, and accessories they have! They are gorgeous and very chic lookin' pieces! I just can't believe that F21 actually had a copy of MJ's bag design! Look at the picture they are really the same though F21 made the bag's shape wrong and the buckles were different. Well of course the material is different. Marc Jacobs used pure leather while F21 made it out using pleather (plastic + leather) or any patent material. So obviously, they might look the same but the quality itself is different from the original ones.

Here are some pictures of F21's "HOT DESIGNS"...

Looks like nothing is going to stop F21 from copying latest designs straight from the runway. Copycats are always not in style! Your next purchase is always up to you!
