I am a little bit obsessing over creams and whites this summer not only because it helps reduce chances of me feeling extremely hot (and not the sexy kind), but also because the colors allow me to easily create a classy looking ensemble. Such was what I needed when I was faced with a 15-minute challenge to dress up for the #TattAwards2013 Launch held at URBN last Friday (April 19). That time, I had just gotten home from an afternoon of running errands, a meeting, and a quick drop-by at a skate event in Alabang Town Center, so I was a little bit disheveled when I got home.

Realizing I only had a couple of minutes to spare before I had to go to URBN for the launch, I immediately gravitated towards a white cotton circle skirt and built an outfit around it. I'm so glad the skirt came in the mail on the same day because I really would've racked my brains for longer deciding on what to wear. Thanks, Spruced Up shop! The plus side of this circle skirt is that it is also made of thicker fabric, so I didn't have to worry about any peek-a-boos despite it being in the color white.



All of these photos were taken with the use of a timer and a tripod. My usual photog wasn't around, but I'm glad they still turned out decent. What do you think? Of course, these came after minutes of trial-and-error, and even using a chair as a stand-in when I was trying to focus my camera. Haha!
