Sing Style: At your own Athleisure

Since my SG trip was just for 3 days, shopping wasn't really part of the itinerary.

Yeah, right.

Surprisingly was able to squeeze in a couple of mall runs during my short stay. And just like that, my empty luggage suddenly became full.

Among the stuff that I bought were SG brands that are no longer in the PH. Like Iora.

There used to be a couple of Iora stores in MNL, but they shuttered one-by-one. They even had an outlet store in Libis, which is now also gone.

They were having their annual sale, which was enough for me to go in the store and shop away. Here's one of the outfits from that run.

It's a white boat neck top and a pleated skirt. What makes this outfit interesting is that it's made from a sporty, cotton-jersey blend. It gives new meaning to the term "Athleisure."

Another nice thing about the skirt is the side detail.

The 2 stripes, which people mistake for Adidas - adds elevates the athletic vibe. 

Not bad for a "not shopping" find.

LFLTAT: Swingapore

My trip to SG this February was very short, and most of the time was spent showing Kai around my usual haunts, and some "Crazy Rich Asian" spots that she wanted to see.

But somehow, I found time to squeeze in a super short visit to 2 of my favorite haunts in SG. A visit that yielded a nice Look For Less Than A Thousand.

First up, a swingy top from one of my favorite local brands - Iora! Since the last Iora store in MNL closed last year, I had to check the brand out while I was in SG.

Then, when we dropped by Ion Orchard, I was able to pass by Bershka and get this pair of belted jeans. On sale! Like, super sale! It had a nice, dark wash and a loose silhouette. Much like culottes, but full length.

The yield is a relaxed and outfit cost around P950 when converted.

Not a bad haul for a quick swing by.

Color story: Egg-citement!

This must be a by-product of working on an egg account the past few weeks.

Recently, I found myself gravitating towards egg-related colors. Even when I was traveling. Yup, even when I was in SG two weeks ago, and in JPN last weekend.

This was the yield of that gravitational pull.

An egg colored ensemble!

The top is from Iora in SG, and it has that nice, egg white hue.

The skirt is from H&M in Shinjuku Sanchome. It's made of guipure lace in a lovely pattern.

It's safe to say that this ensemble is definitely sunny side up!
