Mt. Tapyas

I decided to hike Mt. Tapyas last Sunday since I wasn't sure where the church is located. Many villagers told me that when you reach the top, you will surely be blown away by the breathtaking and spectacular landscape of Coron; which was indeed true. 

            

 Just like what others say, you won't appreciate something unless you work hard for it. That is why before reaching the top and in order for you to see the wondrous landscape of Coron, you have to face a challenge and that is to climb or walk about 723 steps. As Bob Dylan once said "Behind every beautiful thing, there's some kind of pain."

The Panaromic View of Coron Islands

The giant Cross which you could see from below. 

One of the tourist which I was with said that the island above is called the "Sleeping Giant". 

Another panaromic view from another perspective of side of the mountain. If you could actually notice, there's a path going downhill where a small cottage is situated in order for tourist and visitors could rest or stay while resting or waiting for the sunset.

While I was hiking up the mountain, I was actually about to give up and quit. But I remembered a caricature (as shown below) of a person tunneling for diamonds and at the end with only one strike he could have found the diamond, he quit. Then, I realized that I don't want to be that man. In addition, I put myself in a situation that above that mountain if my success of being a lawyer, and if I would quit now then it means that I am not deserving to be one.That gave me the drive and determination to reach the top and not to give up. 

Reach your dreams

without hesitation

Red X Blue

Hello. I'm making my comeback in my blog once again. I've missed a lot of action and most important, I missed everyone. Since, I'm busy with my school life and there's nothing special about it, maybe I would be sharing for a while my inspiration outfits and my wishlist; hoping that I could buy them, so I could add them in my closet pieces. :D hehe.

Anyway, Here's my first inspiration style for the month of October. Ever since, I really wanted to have my own red pants and I wanted to use it with a two-toned button down long sleeves polo. Then, jazz it up with studded leather bracelets and red wayfarers. 

What I love about this look is,  its really relaxing and great for weekend getaway or for Friday night strolling with friends. Finally, I want a pair of loafers, and seriously, It might just be stripped off in the hot list and yet I still don't have my own pair. I felt that I'm so "2000 and late"  Geez.

Tank Tops

It has been quite so long since I have my last update; I just want to apologize for being a way for more than two weeks. It has been a busy and stressful, because of readings and case digests that we have to make for school. So much for this, it’s already March and that means we have one more month to go before summer! Are you ready for your summer attire? If not, this might help you.

Summer is now approaching and the heat is scourging our comfort, lose the sleeves and be comfortable. Bare some skin and flaunt those muscles and be sexy and hot.

Look 1: Green Sheep

If you wanna be casual and you just want to stay cool during the day, this look would be nice for you. I personally would love to wear this look during mall-ing, joyrides or during an ordinary day with my friends. This look has some softness to the look even apart from being edgy and rugged.

Look 2: Sail to me

If you are thinking of having a cruise or sailing in the Caribbean with style, this is for you. Its just all about colors, freshness and comfort. This is one easy way how to welcome summer. And if you are not comfortable from baring some skin, no worries, you can wear a jacket or blazer with it and spice it up with some a scarf. Accessorize it with the trending straw hat and a nice watch.

Look 3: On the go

You remember this look? This was actually on one of my earlier blogs, feauturing one of my shoe addictions of Boots. You can read it on Boot Camp. This is good for walking and for night outs. This is also good for University look, especially for those universities that doesn't require any school uniforms or those with no dress codes.

Look 4: Prepped for night

This look is for night outs, or gig. If you wanna dash the night away with style and move like a swagger on the dance floor, then this would probably the look for you. What I love about this look is its preppy and smart looking. I can see myself wearing this on weekdays for a meeting or during work or for those time when I'm loaded with work during day and party during night.

Look 5: Rock my World

This look is actually good for music lovers, dancers and for those who are inclined in a more street style. This is one of the typical style you can see in foreign countries, more likely in Manila. I just love the look, since its exudes more masculinity in the person and its really gives him t he swag. Its really cool and minimalistic in style. With your dark or black jeans, you can be fashionable by pairing it up with a high-vut sneakers and tank top. 

Look 6: Laid Back

The look is really for those people who wanna be laid back and comfortable, even a day of walking and work. The Mandals, also known as Men's Sandals or Men's Gladiator Sandals, gives the more edgy look for this minimal look. hence, the neutrality of colors, gives a more sensible style. I actually see myself wearing  this during city tours in Cebu or in Manila. A day of walking and roaming around the city will most likely make your feet hurt, and one way to relieve your feet from stress and pain, without sacrifing your style and fashion, wear Mandals. :D

Look 7: Bike Rider

The Name of this set is self-explanatory. Ever since, I learned driving motorbikes, it has really gave me the obsession on big bikes. Wearing leather pants are actually too much common, so to step your style one or more steps more, try wearing a colored pants like this one and pair it with those traditional sensible pieces like leather and black color. What I love about this look is that its my personality and it has studs, which I really love. :D Hahahaha. :))

Oh dear, its New Year

A few days ago, I received a question from Buzznet asking "which of these New Years Eve looks is most 'you'?"

I pressed on the link given to me, and well and behold, the outfits are for girls. :( huhu. I felt sad, because I was expecting outfits for guys. But I realized something and I wanted to share it with my fellow men, even with the use of girl mags and outfits, we can actually use them as inspiration and turn them to a manly interpretation. 

Here is the link of  the outfits created by Audrey Kitching http://audrey-thenewyearsevelookfo.buzznet.com/user/photos/list/

With no further ado, here are the outfits:

First Inspiration: a golden tube top with black ruffled dress paired with a  black jacket (i'm so sure if its tassel or feather/fur coat. ahaha) gold closed stilettos and gold accessories.

As for make-up, you can actually have a light make up with red lips.

Second Inspiration: Like being tomboy for New Year? Use a silver sequined blazer 

(just make sure you'll use something underneath it) with a skinny leather pants/leggings or jeggings and a high-cut leather boots and use black accessories like bangles, watch and rings. :D

As for make-up, you can have a simpler one, just use a lip balm or lip gloss. 

Third Inspiration: Gonna hit some waves or have a wonderful beach New Year? You can welcome New Years Eve with a floral printed chiffon dress, white tasseled blazer and strapped flats or heels (if you like) 

As for Accessories, then accessorize it with beach shells bracelets, dangling shell earrings and feather necklace.

Fourth Inspiration: If you wanted to unleash the woman in you or you like to welcome 2012 being "kikay" then feel no worries, because you can have your dream get-up. Wear a long sleeved laced top then pair it up with a short skirt (you can actually put a belt around your waist) then of course use a pair of flesh/cream colored heels. :D Accessorize you getup with a big chic rings studded with precious stones and a collared-liked necklace. btw, you can wear this getup with-or-without the fur coat.

As for make-up, you can put some fake lashes, light makeup and a luscious pink lips.

Fifth Inspiration: If you want to embrace your New Yorker street style, then don't be afraid to do so. Welcome the 2012 with a black shirt, black and silver striped pants and a high-cut studded strapped on boots then to add an edgy look, wear a fur jacket, gloves, stars printed scarf and a sequined beanie. Accessorize it with a variety of cute connector rings 

As for make-up, you can wear make-up, just keep it simple, or a face powder and lip balm will do. :D you don't want to be the laugh of the town.

Sixth Inspiration - Be a fashionista this 2012 with a long sleeved silver dress with feather fringe at the bottom of the dress, a high, closed toe laced up pumps with silver studded buttons. Accessorize it with a feather-like bangle and a spike necklace and a circular studded chain bag.

As for make-up,  a Kim Kardashian inspired make-up will do, have a shadowed eye make-up, put some mascara and lets not forget to have a red luscious lips for this get-up.

Seventh Inspiration,  Be Bohemian for New Year? Wear a monotone or an earth-toned printed long sleeve mini dress, floral print jacket with fringe/tassels and a strap-on pumps. Then accessorize it with a huge bangles and circular gold earings or a golden-tipped tear drop dangling earrings, scarf and a fringe clutch bag.

As for make-up, you can have a sultry eye make-up or have a smokey eye shadows (like monochromatic in effect or as if your pale)  then lip gloss or light lipstick will do. 

So here are seven inspirations you can have when welcoming 2012. 

My inspiration for New Years Eve would probably be

poor little rich girl, or tomboy inspirations. :D

 Now, let me ask you.
