*drumroll*

OKAAAAAAAAY. Here it is. My Fall 2009 Ready-to-Wear commentary PART ONE.

Starting with...

3.1 Phillip Lim

This is really adorable. It's not really something new, but I just wanted to include this here because I really love the styling. The skirt is so shiny, which I like, and the gloves are definitely the finishing touch. I also like the look of the model. And the hair! Simply adorable.

Alexander McQueen

(Note: Prepare yourselves)

At first, I was a bit put off by the make-up. The over-the-top lips sort of made them look like harlequin babies (Trust me, you do NOT want to Google "harlequin babies"). Anyway, after watching the McQueen show a second time around, thanks to Fashion TV, I realized that the make-up look really worked well with the OMGWTFGENIUS clothes. Anyway, here's the first look from the collection, and I ultimately lalalaLOVED the houndstooth, one of my favorite patterns ever.

I loved the headpieces used in this collection, especially the umbrellas! This look is so chic, and the tweed is gorgeous.

Love love love the Cruella de Vil-like coat here. It looks so regal and luxurious.

This is my favorite headpiece in the collection. The clothes also look like optical illusions, so that's cool.

OH MY GOODNESS. The print in this fabric is IMMACULATE.

I'm not quite sure about this one because I love it from the waist up, but I'm not too keen on the two fun bags on both sides of her hips. I love the bottom part, though. And yes, THE PRINT!!!

This one is such a sweetheart. J'adore.

Okay, forget about the weird headpiece, but this gown is really pretty. I'm also quite taken with the print. Lovely.

She's like from a scene in a movie. I like what they did to her head, shoulders and arms. I like it, despite the unusualness.

Here's the final part of the show: the white angel and ...

The black angel. Work those wings, Magdalena!

Anna Sui

I'm a HUGE lover of prints and pretty dresses, so an Anna Sui collection is always a must-see.

Goooooooosssssh. I cannot get over this print, and oh god, the COLORS!!! *faints*

Did I forget to mention that I also loved the styling in this collection?

It's little Vlada Roslyakova in one of her cutest looks. I adore the color scheme, the print, the leggings! And yes, the headpiece, too.

Zac Posen

The clothes in this collection are not really my style, honestly, but the MAKE-UP is awesome!

The eyes are so smoky and the lips are a perfect shade of reddish orange. These beauty shots don't do justice to it at all.

The way the light hit on the models' faces on the runway made it look soooooo pretty.
Forget about the clothes, and just focus on the make-up.

Pretty pretty pretty.

Erin Fetherston

Fetherston is known for her very feminine/girly dresses, but in her Fall collection, she showed a little bit more of an edge, I could say.

I found that I'm really into this type of silhouette.

A mix of hard and soft fabrics.

I love that she used masks as headpieces. Very quaint.

The platform mary janes are cute.

OKAAAAAY. This is it FOR NOW.

Please check back for PART TWO of the Fall 2009 Ready-to-Wear commentary. I might even add couture to the mix. ;)

Ciao.

p-p-p-poker faaaaaace.

2009-04-03T18:19:00.016+08:00

After a very long hiatus, this blog is now definitely back in action. I've been really busy (ahem) with school. I've also experienced a sort of 'depression' which lasted only a day. Why? It's because of this really REALLY challenging subject in school, which ALMOST cost me my whole summer vacation this year!

Anyway, a few days ago, I was back to my old scavenger hunt ways, and I found really cute pieces from Luisa Via Roma. Here's what I found:

DRESSES

3.1 Phillip Lim Ikat dress

3.1 Phillip Lim ballerina dress

Juicy Couture

Fendi silk bow dress

Preen

Oscar de la Renta

Who could forget this dress worn by Carrie Bradshaw in the Sex and the City movie? The Lily dress is the retail version of the fantasy wedding dress, and it's by, of course, Vivienne Westwood.

TOPS and JACKETS

Fendi twill bow jacket

Anna Sui

Matthew Williamson

3.1 Phillip Lim

Dolce & Gabbana

Alexander McQueen

BOTTOMS

3.1 Phillip Lim tiered fold skirt

Celine

Chloe cotton shorts

SCARVES

All by Louis Vuitton

SHOES

Lanvin

Fendi

STEPHEN SPROUSE COLLECTION
Louis Vuitton accessories

I love the whole Stephen Sprouse collection. I think he's an amazing artist. I should post some of the leggings in that collection sometime. They are major! Anyway, right now, all I could do is lust after these pieces because hel-lo, they are downright expensive!

That's all. I cannot wait for the next post! ;)

UGH.

Two of my favorite actors are in one rom-com movie featuring some of the best music ever.

What could be better?

Oh, I assure you, this is nothing like "Juno". Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist is much more lighthearted and more... what's the word again? Oh, yes, nakakakilig.

Kat Dennings was soooo gorgeous in the film, and Michael Cera will forever be my favorite "awkward-in-a-cute-way" actor ever.

The music is mindblowing. I just downloaded the whole soundtrack, and I'm listening to the songs ON REPEAT.

I wanna watch this movie again and again and again, until I forget to breathe.

'Kay. That's all.

my room, polaroid style.

2009-02-08T13:00:00.007+08:00

My room is my headquarters.
My room is where I concoct all my devilish plans.
My room is where I live, sleep, cry and blog.
This is my room.

Seen here: A part of my notebook collection, a part of my magazine collection, some books I own, the trash bin, my one and only pair of Chucks (I'm so poor), art materials, a small part of my bag

Seen here: My clock, the big mirror, daily stuff I bring to school, my stuffed monkey, a big piece of white cartolina and ET CETERA.

Seen here: The very very very old wardrobe. It's been around with my family for ages, I think.

Seen here: My pillows and my bed sheet. They do not ever match every time the maid changes them.

Seen here: My dad's office computer that was given to me by him.
Yes, I do have a pink Hello Kitty keyboard. Don't judge.

Seen here: A lot of bags, some used, some not so used.

Seen here: Two doors and a light switch.

Seen here: An illustrated portrait of my grandmother who passed away seven or eight years ago and my now eighty-five-year-old grandfather who I'm living with right now.
Their love story is a unique one. I'll tell you all about it sometime.

Seen here: The room across from mine which will be occupied by my brother when he starts college in June. Also seen here is the way to the staircase going downstairs.

So that's my room. There are a lot more quirky things in it that aren't seen in these pictures, but I only wanted to write about the major parts of it.

No, I don't have a polaroid camera. I just used a really awesome editing tool on the net.

Au revoir.

outfit box # 3: classic

2009-02-08T11:18:00.003+08:00

Today's outfit box is all about class. And brown. And black.

outfit box # 2: graphic tease

2009-02-07T20:07:00.009+08:00

Today's outfit box features graphic tees.

outfit box #1: valentine's day-inspired

2009-02-06T20:15:00.004+08:00

So I just recently began making outfit boxes like the one above. This one's inspired by Valentine's Day, which is just around the corner.

I never usually care about this "holiday", but my design class just had this Valentine's Day thingamajig this afternoon, so I'm kind of still in a hangover.

Anyway, my main colors are, of course, the undying red and the really pretty fuchsia. I tried to stay away from the very cliche hearts, but I just couldn't resist. It's my favorite shape, so... =P

Anyway, I hope you all like it.

spring awakening.

2009-02-05T23:49:00.010+08:00

Spring 2009 runway photos and more, plus my own unnecessary comments.

Let's look at menswear first. I love the red collar in this coat. It totally pops out from the all-black ensemble.

I am totally digging this whole androgynous look. I like the play on volume in the jacket, and the narrow pants. This looks really good.

This white rose "helmet" is by Chanel. No surprise there. It looks so elaborate but it is so gorgeously executed, and the plain white dress matches very well, too.

Can you say ultra expensive lingerie? Ah, well, it's supposed to be a dress, but look at the detailing. The sheerness of the fabric makes it look even more delicate... and a little dominatrix-meets-romantic.

I love love love this coat! And the yellow dress! Pastel colors overload, but I like it.

Anyone who doesn't like this silhouette is a big idiot. I've seen this kind of ensemble before, but the edgy lines here are just epic.

The whole concept of this trench coat is superfreakishly brilliant. And pretty. The paintbrush strokes add a quirky little touch to the classic trench coat.

This outfit reminds me of the 70's for some odd reason. Maybe it's because of the model and her hair? I dunno. But what she's wearing is certainly prettyyy.

I'm not really sure about this look. I mean, I love that kind of floral print, but the way the pieces were put together is kind of all over the place. Looks a bit messy to me. I do like the belt, the black neck bow and the skirt. Cute.

Christian Dior, why do you always do this to me? Your clothes always get me short of breath, and this is certainly no exception. This "bridal gown" is so simple yet charming yet beautiful yet effortless yet stunning.

This is my first time doing fashion commentary (on blogs), so you'll have to forgive me for all the vague descriptions and sudden gushes of delight.

Ciao.

how much longer before i get myself free of these hurricane streets?

TANGLAW IS DEAD.

Murdered.

Destroyed.

(I'll make a WHOLE NEW blog entry about this once I get an actual copy of the BLASPHEMOUS ISSUE)

I have a poll for you Tanglaw writers and fellow ~~PCHS~~ PCC alumni. I need your honest opinion on this one.

WHAT SHOULD I DO ONCE THE MORTIFYING ISSUE LANDS ON MY SADISTIC HANDS?

*yes, that rhymed*

A. Correct the errors in red marker and post every page here in this site to shame this so-called "school paper".

B. Burn it.

C. Tear/shred it to pieces.

D. Feed it to the dogs/rats/cats/whatever animal available.

E. Turn the pages into scratch paper.

F. Correct the errors (which my brother and sister said were A LOT), and send it back to the YOU'RE-SO-FAKE-YOU-DIDN'T-EVEN-WRITE-YOUR-OWN-FREAKING-EDITORIAL-BECAUSE-YOU'RE-A-WANNABE-WHO-DOESN'T-EVEN-KNOW-HOW-TO-WRITE-AND-YOU-JUST-WANTED-ALL-THE-FAME-AND-GLORY-OF-BEING-AN-EDITOR-IN-CHIEF-WELL-FUCK-YOU-POSER-SLASH-WANNABE editor-in-chief

Maybe I'll even add a personal note to tell him how fucking "proud" I am of the first ever WANNABE issue of Tanglaw.

Give the current Tanglaw staff a warm applause, ladies and gentlemen. *standing ovation*

A Very Important Note:
If this ever gets to the school admin itself, which I know it SOMEHOW will, here's my response in advance:

I DON'T CARE IF YOU SUE ME, BAN ME, OR WHATEVER THE HELL THAT WILL COME TO YOUR MIND BECAUSE GUESS WHAT? THIS IS FREEDOM OF SPEECH, AND MY FREEDOM OF SPEECH TELLS ME THAT YOU SUCK. BIG TIME.

And you know what else? You may call me a crazy bitch or a boastful hypocrite, but in the end, TANGLAW IS STILL DEAD.

Who would it bring it back to life?

There's nobody else capable of handling it.

Sinu-sino ang nasa isip niyo na pwedeng maging future EIC?

Si ******? O kaya si *****?

You people are crazy to even think that.

That's all. There will be more next time.

I'm not even done yet. Kulang pa 'tong entry sa curse words and insults.

I'm just getting started.

P.S.

Don't forget to answer the poll, everyone. I'm serious.

Just post your answer in the comments.

Thanks and goodbye. :)

harlot so maharot.

*Original name replaced

I CANNOT THINK OF A PROPER TITLE BECAUSE ALL I CAN THINK ABOUT RIGHT NOW IS THE GREATNESS OF SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE.

2009-01-15T14:25:00.004+08:00

God. How can I properly express my feelings about this movie?

Gah. I'll come back later to edit this. I still cannot think of what to write.

But, please, let me just say that Slumdog Millionaire is ONE OF THE BEST FILMS EVER.

It's the single best film of 2008.

Ok. I'll come back later to add more.

I cannot think. I cannot think.

Danny Boyle, you're a masterpiece maker.

EDIT: I don't think I could add more to this post. My "Slumdog Millionaire" phase is over, I think. :|

pretty boy, who's keeping score? you've got it all and you want more.

2009-01-13T17:43:00.009+08:00

I NEED TO STOP WATCHING "SKINS".

Nah.

I love it too much.

First of all, thanks to the awesome Xtine for introducing me to this equally awesome show. Congrats for passing Advertising Arts and Comm. Arts in UST, grandma. ;)

Actually, I've heard about this show before, but I thought it was like one of those CSI shows with gore and everything, but I was COMPLETELY wrong.

It never crossed my mind that it was probably a teen show... Well.

So anyway, Skins is about a group of sulky, sex-driven, problematic and fun-loving British teenage party animals.

Then again, is there a teenager out there that's NOT a sulky, sex-driven, problematic and fun-loving party animal?

So yes, they are just a bunch of regular kids, which makes it easier for us to identify with them. Moreover, they also have personal and interpersonal issues which, I think, are more complicated and heavier than some of ours.

Each episode is perfect. Really, I'm serious.

For the first time ever, I think there's a show that really beats Gossip Girl's ass. (I still love GG, though. I just think Skins is better because it's more realistic and it hits the heart like a bullseye).

They show a lot more nudity than most of the shows shown in the U.S., but it only adds little to the show's spice or appeal because the storyline, the episode plots, the characters and the dialogue are already enough reasons to watch it.

Let's discuss the characters, shall we?

This is Tony. At first, I thought he was the cool guy. And yes, my impression was right, but after watching a few more episodes, I became so annoyed with him because he is the essence of the word "manipulation". He's literally the nastier male version of Blair Waldorf.

At the end of season one, however, I finally saw a bit of his good side, so that was nice. I was shocked about what happened to him in the finale, though. I was like :O

This is Sid, Tony's best friend, but he's more like Tony's sidekick or puppet. He seriously reminds me of Ron Weasley. Seriously. Were they separated at birth? That I do not know.

Speaking of Ron W., I think Sid's like him, but the latter's more of a melancholic version of the former. I like both, anyways.

This is Cassie. She's the skinny "always high" girl, though I don't like restricting her in that one category. I think she's really cute and nice and sweet and Sid's a fucking loser for not waking up to see that Cassie's the one for him. But that was before. The finale was... whoa. I won't spoil here, so you have got to watch it. YOU HAVE GOT TO.

Oh, and I love her sense of style.

This is Maxxie, the tap dancing gay boy, who's also very talented in drawing. I still haven't seen his deeper side, yet, because he wasn't featured solely in an episode in season one. And by featured, I mean, he wasn't a central character in any episode of season one. He was more like a supporting character, but I think they'll feature him in season two. (I CANNOT WAIT FOR THE TORRENT TO FUCKING FINISH, DAMMIT.)

And this one's for the ladies. *cough*Xtine*cough*

This is Michelle, Tony's girlfriend, who Sid's in love with. I sometimes disagree with her decisions and "carried away" moments, but she's pretty cool.

I totally loved it when she broke up with Tony. I was like, "F-I-N-A-L-L-Y!!!"

This is Anwar, the Muslim boy who's not getting any, well, except for the Russian girl who totally looked like a porno girl! Anyway, I was so disappointed with him in the Russia episode because of the way he treated Maxxie. In the end, it was all good.

I can't say much about him because, like Maxxie, he was more of a minor character.

This is Jal. I think she's the most independent one among the girls. She's musically-inclined, playing instruments and having a music producer as a father. I think she's a very strong female who can stand up for herself.

Like Maxxie and Anwar, she's always in the background of major characters such as Sid and Tony, but she deserves more screen time, I think.

And lastly, this is Chris. I forget about this character most of the time, but it was heartbreaking to watch his episode. :( He's like the most "out there" character. He likes taking drugs, having sex, even with his psychology teacher, Angie.

And, yeah, he defines "party animal".

The cast just really clicks. The actors sync so well with one another. It's like watching your peers in a different view. And, another thing, they're so fresh. They bring so much life to their characters that it's really really really easy for the audience to pay attention and to like them (and maybe hate them a little when it's reasonable).

Overall, the show is just freakingly GREATBRILLIANTFANTASTICAWESOME.

I am so blessed to have watched this. Thanks again to Xtine for enlightening me. :D

SEASON TWO TORRENT, HURRY THE FUCK UP.

EDIT: After rereading this post, I finally realize that, yes, I'm officially obsessed.

i can write it better than you ever felt it.

2009-01-08T12:09:00.011+08:00

As promised, here are the pictures of my copy of "Folie a Deux" Deluxe Edition.

I GOT THE FREAKING ALBUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*hyperventilates*

...

*hyperventilates again*

Okay.

So I went to SM San Lazaro awhile ago. It's my regular stopover whenever I go back and stay at Tondo for the weekend.

So I ate lunch there, walked around and bought an issue of F L A U N T magazine (for only 65 pesos, people).

Then I realized that I wanted the Folie a Deux album.

Then I wondered if someone would get it for me.

...

I guessed not. :|

So I thought I might as well buy it myself. Good thing I brought extra cash.

So I went to AstroPlus (or AstroVision? Sorry I forgot!), and, to my dismay, they only have the *cough* SPECIAL PHILIPPINE EDITION *cough* album.

Ugh.

I remembered when I bought the Infinity on High album. It was also a special Phil. edition. It included the CD (of course), but it didn't have the friggin' booklet! Just one piece of paper folded once. No lyrics, no photos (except the cover), no "special thanks" and other stuff that make an album ~*extra special*~.

Anyway, I asked the saleslady if they had a non-SPE version, and she said they were out of stock already. DAYYYYUM.

Then I remembered that SM Dept. Store has a CD section, so I went there.

And, yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay. They actually have it! Deluxe edition, folks!

DELUXE EDITION!!!

SM DEPARTMENT STORE, YOU NEVER DISAPPOINT! I LOVE YOU! *huggles*

Then, to be sure and not regret again, I asked if the saleslady could open the package so that I could see what's inside.

Oh my.

It looked PRETTY AWESOME.

It has a poster of the cover album and at the back there's a huge picture of Patrick, Pete, Andy and Joe.

But the really really really cool part was the package! It was folded four times and in each fold there's a big picture of a band member with really nice graphics on the side of his face. They each have their own design, so that's really wicked.

And, oh, it also includes a free Folie a Deux button! Weeeeee~~~

Anyway, enough gushing about how supercalifragilisticexpialidociously PRETTY the package looked. Let's discuss the music itself.

Well, like any other Fall Out Boy album, I ABSOLUTELY, PURELY, WHOLEHEARTEDLY LOVED it.

The songs somewhat remind me of those in the From Under the Cork Tree album but with a more upbeat sound. Patrick's voice got so much better/versatile. Also, the bonus tracks aren't bad at all. I really like the remixes of "I Don't Care" and "America's Suitehearts", which also has an acoustic version along with "What a Catch, Donnie."

The Patrick Stump + Brendon Urie duet was a high. :)

And the lyrics... :O

They make me want to wish I came up with them first.

But no, I never will, because Pete Wentz is, like, a lyrical god from music heaven.

So, in conclusion, THE ALBUM IS GENIUS.

Please, please, please BUY IT if you're also an FOB diehard like me!

**PICTURES OF THE PURCHASED ALBUM COMING SOON**

it's a one-way ticket to a madman situation.

2009-01-06T23:24:00.004+08:00

I only have FOUR words.

GIVE.

THIS.

TO.

ME.

EDIT: I ALREADY HAVE IT, FOLKS. HA!

hit me on my burner, prepaid wireless.

2009-01-06T19:30:00.007+08:00

I have a new playlist!

Where?

Find it!

Yeah, I know it's placed VERY awkwardly in the page layout, but I can't resize it anymore. It's just really big. :|

The playlist includes songs from the Arctic Monkeys, M.I.A., Fall Out Boy, Beyonce, Cobra Starship, Cold War Kids, Kanye West, The Veronicas, Sugababes, Britney Spears and lots more.

Oh well, just love it, people.

LOVE IT.

I order you to.

removing chipped nail polish has never sounded more exciting.

2009-01-04T20:11:00.003+08:00

Well well well. Another blog again. Another online space for me to bitch, oh, excuse me, rant about people and stuff. Another place for me to overspend my time instead of doing schoolwork. Another site for me to pour all my creative energy in terms of words.

I really miss writing. I really do. It's like my only escape. This is my real voice right here. It's not the one that's speaking to you in person or face-to-face. It's all right here.

For the past few months, or maybe even years, I've been feeling a little sad because I haven't had the time to write. And I'm thinking that maybe I've been having writer's block for a long while now, which totally sucks, by the way.

My course in college is all about art. Drawing, painting... that sort of stuff. So it kind of separates me from my first love which is literature. And I hate being that person who doesn't read books and doesn't write because whenever I do those, I feel like I'm at the top of my game. I feel knowledgable. And who doesn't want to be knowledgable? Nobody. Unless you're a freak of nature.

So enough about that because I now sound like a total nerd, which I'm absolutely not. And, no, I am not defensive at all.

So it's been 2009 for a while now. It's January 4 today. Do I feel like something's changed? Nah. It feels so old, so ordinary. But I'm liking it. As of now, nothing bad has happened to me and my family yet, so hooray for that.

Classes will resume tomorrow. Boohoo. But I'm excited to go back home on Wednesday. I already miss my siblings, especially my little sister who's been really nice, and at the same time bratty, during Christmas break. And also, I'm gonna continue working on my Design and Color 2 hullabaloo. It's sooooooooooo nauseating. I haven't the faintest idea why our prof ordered us to do that... that... thing. I don't know what to call it. It's supposed to be a structure of three 3D shapes constructed out of Bristol board and painted with poster paint. Sounds easy? Yes, if you're a freak. But, really, it takes like a whole freaking day to paint one 3D shape/form. ASDFGEYGFEJHHUIYUGJBJLYGJ.

'Kay. That's all.
