Cropped and Short

This was an outfit I wore a few weeks ago already. It was cropped top that I didn't exactly like at first glance but when my sister bought it for me anyway, I found it's beauty! There's more to things at first look, apparently. Haha! 

Loving the cropped top and  high-waist look by the way. What do you think of it? :)

IoTD: The Bright, the Chic and the Colorful - the New OPT Cases!

For the past two weeks, I've been bombarded by papers, projects and tests from school that I can't even imagine the level of stress I've been working under. On some days, I seriously don't even realize what I'm doing. I just go go and go, and the next thing I know it's already midnight when it seemed like just a minute ago I woke up six in the morning. But it's not like the 12 o'clock hand ever puts me to sleep. There's just so much more to do every time! Sleepless nights have constantly put a dark cloud above my head, and the cranky mornings don't really help blowing them off to sea either. 

But lo and behold! I've found something that can! Check out these new OPT iPad 2 cases! They're so colorful and so chic that they brighten up any of my outfits. Plus, since I've been doing all those business papers all around and outside school and been carrying all kinds of gadgets like my laptop and iPad everywhere I go, this is perfect to keep them all secured! It has this mag-lock feature that works really well with the Apple Smart Cover. You can flip the cover over and fasten it to the case - just what I needed; my clumsiness levels has  really gone up a notch with all the lack of sleep. Haha!

The best thing, though, about the new OPT iPad 2 case is the happiness effect it has on my day. As cheesy as it may sound, it's the rainbow that keeps the dark clouds at bay. Just look at all the designs (made from genuine leather, by the way)! Don't they just make you energized and happily stylish? :)

COLORMEFUL: For the woman who likes to keep it colorful and casual
 - This is the one I got! :)

BUTTERCHOC: For the Paul Smith in you
- I would have gotten this one if the other one didn't have stock. Hmm.. maybe I'll get it too soon enough :)

WONDERLAND: The quintessential girly-girl

SCOTT: For the mysterious, brooding guy

 The product description in OPT's Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/OPT.Philippines):

Now open for PRE-ORDERS!

I seriously advice you to get one that matches your style! A definite picker-upper for those stressful days :)

Flower Power

I have this fascination for old things that I used to use back when I was little. Not only is it very nostalgic, but also because there's a certain vibe to them that says they're entirely my own. Perhaps the notion that no one now has this anymore gives me a sort of "pseudo-originality"... or so I'd like to think. Haha!

Recently, I found this big flower ponytail band in my old case of kiddie clips. Can't believe I could still pull it off at this age! Gave me that summery feel with my even older shell necklace and spags tank top. Yey!

Love the turquoise center!

Converse: The Canvas Experiment

Okay, it's been a week and half already since classes started for me and it's already been a whirlwind of projects, papers and tests! All the pressure's on now that I'm starting one of the most crucial years of my college life. The majors are piling up and the number of units keep increasing. I barely have time to breathe!

One of the things I hear the most these days is marketing, marketing and marketing... not only because it's all around us (and my house practically breathes marketing), but also because my classmates and I have been scrambling for time to submit topic proposals for this ginormous, gravity-driven paper we are to make! And now that topic after topic has been constantly shut down, it just kind of dampens my spirits to actually come up with a great idea.

But just as I was about to give up, I saw this video and I got inspired once again! It reminded me of how real marketing should be -- creative. That's one (and for the most part, the only) thing I love about being stuck in a business course.

Converse's The Canvas Experiment. Enjoy! :)
