Okay, I've been attempting to write this blog post since last Sunday when I got back from this wine night with Angel, but I got too caught up on a little project and when I did decide to take a break from that project to finally write this blog post, guess what happened... I fell asleep (!!!). I was just planning to rest my eyes for 5 minutes and the next thing I knew, they've been closed for 5 hours. Haha! Since this weekend too, my body clock has been all over the place. But enough about my reasons for not having this up sooner. Let's get to the look!

I believe the blazer-top-shorts combo has become my south/weekend outfit formula. If I have a "template" for my work looks, now I'm definitely starting to settle on a template for my weekend looks. Not to be too comfortable with this, I will still continue to challenge myself to explore outside of my comfort zone when it comes to dressing up. Meanwhile, let me know what you think about this.


I opted for a very slouchy top to pair with the more structured pieces (high-waist shorts and blazer). Having pieces that are contrasting in terms of style or how it was made is a great way to balance out a look. I also added that leopard printed tube top not only because the top had a very low neckline, but because it spiced things up a bit. I felt the blazer was too "formal", so that was really a good way to kind of offset the blazer a bit.

And of course, I had to walk my new babies out! These Manels patent silver sandals are definitely a keeper, incorporating class into a casual piece. I know I initially said I wanted only the gold ones, but now I'm starting to think that I actually like this pair more! Either way, it was a good choice to get both! Thank you, Manels, for that first dibs on the anniversary sale you held. I don't think I would've gotten these if I hadn't taken that trip to SM Megamall :)


So that's it! I'm so sorry if this is way too long of  a blog post. My posts usually are anyway! Haha! 'Til the next one. Happy Wednesday!
