The Story Of This Dress: Blue polka dot shorts

OLA FROM BORA!!! I got this blue polka dot shorts (i know, parang skirt!) at an ukay-ukay store in quiapo... for P50 only! The first idea I had in mind about the piece was to pair it with a plain white top and a cute pair of red maryjanes. Maybe I'll do that in Manila!

The Story Of This Dress: izzue.com dress

I got  this dress form ukay-ukay when I went shopping with my twin/blogging partner Nyko at Anonas and Kamuning. Less than P100, as I remember. 

Why I like it: I love the color, it's like a dark bluish gray kind. I think the dress is kinda pa-tough when you look at it, parang boyish but in reality it kinda is pa-sexy also. When I sit down it's really short, also the buttons are alanganin for me, I think 1 button down is not enough but when I unbutton 1 more it'll be too revealing, and when I put my arms on my waist, the space between the 2nd and third button reveals my pretty cleavage and bra. So, you know, it may look tomboy-ish but it really makes me act more demure and dainty :)


happy payless consumer!

UKAY MISADVENTURES

Today, Nyko and I went to ukay-hopping at Anonas and Kamuning. I'm planning to do a segment on this blog about great ukay pimping! Altering and making your ukay finds more fashionable and more YOU! One item a week or one whole outfit week.. what do you think?

If you have comments or suggestions... or secret Ukay-ukay shops that you want to share with us, please e-mail Nico and Nica at here!
