Though I’ll be leaving my followers here, I think this is a good opportunity to start all over again. :)
Thank you so much to my Tumblr followers and readers! Having almost nine hundred visitors in the past three months is very much fulfilling and makes blogging worthwhile. I hope I have inspired you to be your own person (even just a little bit) and encouraged you to achieve your dreams, how impossible they may be at first. Thank you soooo much! :)
However, this is not yet goodbye. I hope you can visit my new blog at heyitsalyssayu.blogspot.com. You can still follow me via Bloglovin, Google Friend Connect or Networked Blogs (Facebook).

I wore this to a casual org event two nights ago. I just grabbed the first thing I saw when I opened my closet, haha. :) We had a reporting earlier that day for school, so no shorts, no sleeveless tops and no slippers. I wore this top and cardigan, together with jeans for the reporting. And for the night, I changed from jeans to shorts, and from flats to rain boots. You might be wondering why the heck would I wear rain boots for an indoor event? Well, the weather was really bad that night (of course, I still brought flats). I had a hunch that I would be walking on flooded streets and tried not to think of the questionable looks I would be seeing on people’s faces. I was really glad for my decision because it was raining like crazy! :)



My arm looks weird here, haha! I was holding the camera. :)




French Connection cardigan, Papaya top, UNIQLO belt, Kamiseta shorts, Random dept store rain boots.

Spotted these shoes while walking around the mall :)
My sister and I came across this shirt by Hybrid Tees at Surplus Shop for only Php200! It says, Don’t Hate What You Can’t Imitate. Now, who gets to buy it and who has to borrow? Since we both love it so much, we couldn’t decide. We both bought one but in different colors. I bought the blue-green one and she had the purple.

I don’t have enough loose tees which fit me perfectly. Another reason why I was so giddy when I saw this!

It’s a steal! Don’t you think so too?
Have a great weekend everyone!
For this post, I’ll be showing you what’s inside my “blogging tool kit”. These are my blogging essentials or the things I need and use for blogging.
Laptop. Well, of course, this is how I upload photos and post stuff in my blog. I switched to Mac just a week ago and I’m already loving it! I’ve been a Windows user for as long as I remember, and I’m still learning how to work some things out in Mac. (Scrolling makes me so dizzy! But I’ll get used to it. Haha.)
Phone. If you’re visiting my blog regularly, you know how thankful I am for my iPhone. It saved me a couple of times when I forgot to bring my camera or my camera’s out of battery. Really. It comes in handy during unexpected situations. You’ll never know! :) It’s a big plus that the camera in the iPhone is really good.

Camera. I already blogged about my camera earlier (a few weeks ago, I think). Currently I’m using Nikon Coolpix P300 instead of my Canon 1000D. You can read the post here.

Boyfriend/Sister/Friend or anyone who’s willing to take a picture of you. I used to take my photos on a tripod but it’s very inconvenient and too much of a hassle. Not to mention, it’s very difficult to try out different angles when using a tripod.
Planner. I received a Belle de Jour Power Planner as a gift last December. Here, I jot down what I wore for the day, future outfit ideas, inspirations and just about anything. I also made a list of my shoes here because some of my shoes are inside shoe boxes and I forget about them when I’m choosing which shoes to wear for the day. I love this planner! I’m definitely buying another one for next year. It has so many pages to write on and so many inspirational words. :)

(All photos are from the internet.)
I’m short on cash right now, so in order to satisfy my fashion needs, I went window shopping (and bought very few things)!
Topshop:

Florals.

Stripes and solid colors.
Dorothy Perkins:

Stripes again! Hmm, they’re very much in season. :)


Orange and polka dots.
(Every time I click preview or create post, nothing happens. And the window doesn’t respond anymore. So what I did was to separate it into different posts.)
Hope it’s not too much of a hassle for you! :)

I like the one on the upper right!

Animal print skirt.

Wool blazer/jacket.
