On our fourth day in Paris, the fourth grader in me was jumping up and down because I finally got to see the Louvre. You see, back then, I religiously watched the Filipino-dubbed Anime Sanjūshi or Three Musketeers everyday after school. I would park my butt in front of the tv, eat my merienda, and watch…
IN THE MOOD FOR CHEONGSAM
Snapshots from the Singpore National Museum’s current exhibit: In the Mood for Cheongsam. If you’re in the area, I highly suggest you go visit. Not only is it informative, it’s pure visual delight too. The above pictures should be testament to that. 😉 The exhibit was a marriage of two of my favorite things: fashion…
BRAS BASAH BREEZY
{top from bugis, trousers from Ingrid, HDY flats} Went to visit the Bras Basah area the other day after checking out what I can do in Singapore. I checked out the courtyard of Raffles Hotel, the Singapore Art Museum, and the Singapore National Museum. Love how I’m getting to accomplish my more galleries and museums goal this…
NIGHT AT THE MIND MUSEUM
If you’ve been reading my blog for some time now, you’ll know that visiting galleries and museums is something that I’d like to do more of. I haven’t really been able to stick to this resolution so I was really stoked when they gave us passes to The Mind Museum during the Pablo Cabahug x DELL XPS13 Ultrabook launch.…
MANILART TALK 101
This is actually the same outfit as here, I just added my trusty old trench coz I was already pressed for time (I came from merienda and Zentea with my mom in the afternoon, hihi). I attended the ManilArt Art Talk 101 at Secret Fresh, Ronac Art Center. Was really excited for this one coz remember my…
AFTERNOON AT THE MUSEUM
{thrifted dress shirt, feather necklace pasalubong from Ingrid // hype this look on Chictopia} When was the last time you’ve been inside a museum? Mine was a little over a year ago when I was still a student in Luis Espiritu‘s styling class. I remember thinking to myself back then that I’d make it a point to visit…
OBJECTS D’ ART
{peacelovefashion top, zara skirt, parisian booties} As mentioned here, last Saturday was spent marveling at the exquisite non-traditional jewelry in Objects D’ Art and then later on manning the backstage of Style Origin Market Market. Since it was a pretty big day with an equally big night, I decided to do an homage to my favorite spring…
KISS MY ANALOG: VINYL ON VINYL’S ANNIV
My friend Marla and I went to Vinyl on Vinyl’s one year anniversary last Friday. We had a blast checking out the eye-popping cassette tapes on display. And no, these aren’t your ordinary cassette tapes. Made by artists Marcushiro Nada, Lala Gallardo, Whoop, Nemo, Nelz Yumul, Arvin Javier, Dex Fernandez, Froilan Calayag, Chester Calayag,…

Vinyl on Vinyl is a haven for urban artists and urban art aficionados, as well as music lovers who appreciate the full experience only a vinyl can give.…
WHEN ART ATTACKS
{sweater from TRF, shorts from Forever 21, shoes from Pill} Last weekend, I hung out with my boyfriend and his friends in the most beautiful penthouse/gallery/roofdeck I’ve ever been to. It was the penthouse of Felix’ brother, contemporary artist Ivan Acuña. I’m sure you’ve seen him before in the digital billboard along Edsa, as he’s…
