VLM Guide: Be Manila Music Festival Ready



After knowing you can stand out this summer through this post, now we gotta be armed with the activities and festivities this gorgeous season brings.

Manila Music Festival, yes? Af and I couldn't be more excited with this event. Finally, something we pinoys can call our own! So here's what the VLM darlings thought of bringing/having:





1) Floppy hat - Spare yourself from bringing too much in your bag like a heavy/bulky umbrella, and show off that classic hat stardust.



2) Messy hair - Sport that messy beach hair. The event's gonna be held in open grounds--and might be windy (I hope!) so go ahead, embrace the wind.


3) A Dewy face -  You don't wanna make that cute guy see melting dark eyeshadows and mascara! Have minimal make-up. A moisturizer, foundation with high SPF, and lipstick would do.



4) Perfect dress - While listening to your favorite band, you don't wanna be uncomfortable. Choose cottony and breezy dresses to null that scorching Manila heat.






 5) Fancy tumbler - Hydrate,hydrate, hydrate. But that doesn't mean you'll hold a boring water bottle. Save mother earth and bring that attention seeking tumbler from Victoria Secret or maybe a parisian bottle.
 6) Music inspired accessories - Talk about subtle advertising here (haha!) Take that stunner VLM accessories with you honey ;)

7) Boots/Gladiators - Take those rad pieces out for a spin. Again, comfort and fashion is a must.


 8) Camera - Don't just freeze those stunning images in your head. You'll forget that eventually. Document every moment of the festival darling. :)




Now remember VLM's music festival inspired collection? That's how stoked we are. Are you? See you on the 1st of May!

Hike and Pike





















April 23, 2012

This is definitely one for the books. Hiking at Pico de Loro with colleagues, and maaaan, it was exhausting  but exhilarating! Aching body after 2 days. Don't judge, this is my first.

Instinct

I just learned to live with my forever messy hair. 




Scoured a gorgeous pair of boots at Peacocks for just P645. Almost 80% off the regular price!




"Instinct can be your only weapon." - Battleship

Quality time at last, after weeks of busy schedules and errands. It makes us feel grand everytime.






Obviously, I can't get over with the boots and took them on a weekend with the beau. Wore a floral top to add some femininity and balance. I just don't get myself sometimes wearing boots for this inside-a-microwave weather, but oh well. *wink*

It was a day of plans, catching up, running inside the mall, shameless picture taking, eating, and random praising/ranting really. The kind that makes a little girl smile.


PS
Thanks for supporting me on Style Bible's Style Star. I was second, but I appreciate it really. It melts my heart knowing I have supportive people like you.
