I don't know about you but I'd always choose dressing down. I'm more on the relaxed style because comfort is key. Nope, I'm not saying that I don't like dressing up. It's just that, I don't like high heels even though I'm short and I live in tees.
I think for me this is the holy grail of everyday look. When you seem like you made all the effort but you didn't. That subtle yet chic look.
Okay, this high waist pants that I'm using is not too tight. It's like wearing jeans but the comfortable ones because I can freely move. The feeling is more like wearing PJs but not really. And because of that, I'm confident in pairing it with a crop top. As for me, the crop top is best paired with anything high waisted since it helps in highlighting the legs without covering it up. Thus, gives out an illusion of longer legs. Plus, I used a girly feel sandal which is somehow has a closer hue of my bottom. (as much as possible)
To top it off, the bag is the winner here. Seriously, where has this been all my life?! I could have enjoyed this in my early twenties.haha.. Visually, it's not the typical backpack and I've been struggling with heavy shoulder bags—like forever. As this balances the weight when you use it as a backpack. I can still use this even if I wear a dress/skirt since there are other ways of using this as referred to my topmost image post. I sounded like I'm endorsing the product but no.haha. So I must stop. :D
Of course, it boils down on what you really prefer. I know some other girls who are more comfortable and confident when dressing up and that is admirable. They can carry themselves really well. And they are those of whom I can get inspiration. Just embrace who you really are without pretensions. You'll never know whom you could inspire.
I hope you get some outfit idea and thank you for reading.

I love to dress up in church. This is partly because I used to wear a dress on Sunday service when I was younger. But I sometimes wear jeans too because that's when I'm most comfortable.
Anyways, let's start talking about this dress. This lovely half lace dress creates an illusion of a separate piece. I love how it's designed to just flow like a crop lace top and how the pleated bottom swings naturally. Oh and the colors at the bottom; just look at that. The color combination is so cute. Altogether, the dress is just lovely for me.
Happy is the woman who understands that God made her the way she is and wants to use her that way.
My 'don't look at the camera' poses are too funny. Obviously very awkward.haha.. Well, at least I tried. :D
Since the top is too plain, I decided to put on a necklace. If you notice my bag has a ribbon on it. I personally thought that it's part of the entire bag when I purchased it. But when I got home, I noticed that it was actually a pouch. I just leave it there since I like it how it looks with a ribbon. Also, it's a good thing that my 'lippie' and necklace are kind of matchy. As well as my bag and sandals. Props tocolor-coordinatedd look!
Argh! I'm taking so much time in writing. I'm being so lazy these days. (which I usually 'am) :( Maybe because of the weather. Though, this is actually a new post just a few days after my last post. wow!(progress grin)haha... I really hope that you enjoyed this post. Thank you for reading and God bless! :)

Allow me to talk about some realizations that I grasp as I take on another year and how I celebrated my birthday.
For those who don't know, I belong to a pretty big family. I have three sisters and three brothers. We lived in a small house. I grew up without getting almost all that things I wanted as a kid. We have not experienced going out as a family for a stroll around the mall and enjoy eating outside. The point is, we are not rich. But despite it all, I can say that we are a happy family. So when the time that I'm already earning, it has been usual for us that we go out to celebrate my birthday.
Today, I'm gonna be sharing with you how to make your own awesome exfoliating face scrub using a tea bag. This simple ingredient can be found just about anywhere these days. Green tea contains antioxidant properties that may help to reactivate cells and fight against damaged skin.
Hello, how are you? I hope you all doing fine. This time around, I'm trying out something that is not really my go-to outfit. As you all may know, I hardly ever own long/maxi dresses and a skirt. Maybe because I find it unflattering to my small body frame. So whenever I shop I usually skip that section, but this one is an exception.
To be honest, it's the color of the dress that got my attention. I'm all about pastel colors! Soft hues are timeless. A girl should add pastel colors in their wardrobe (that's what she said).
Obviously, I fell in love with it from the time I fitted it. I don't really have a curvy shape but this one gives out an effortless sexy feel. I also loved how it's designed as semi turtleneck. You may accessorize this with a necklace to look more fashionable. Though I wished the slit on the side is not too high. I was thinking to do some quick fix on this one but I worry it might not turn out well. Yeah, I do some quick and easy fixes of my clothes if I felt like it doesn't suit me in some other part but really like the style and quality. Nonetheless, this is perfectly fine. You just need to make sure that you use thick and comfortable undergarment.
I also paired this with my black sneakers just because I wanted to be comfortable and keep my feet warm. Malls can sometimes really get cold and did I mentioned that I also brought with me a thin cardigan? coz' I easily get cold.hehe... Although, I personally think that this outfit looks best when paired with sandals.
Horizontal stripes would tend to look you wider. So you might as well use trusty clothes/ accessories that could tone it down (if you prefer). Anyways, it all comes down to the style of the clothes and the body you are on.
So here's us about to enjoy our food. We are basically, mall goers.haha... Thanks really to the 'boyfie'. ♥
This is what you do when you are out of poses and you know that you have to work on it.haha..
Way to go to end up a post huh?

I wish I could say that I have a sweet tooth! In that way, I can easily state how I enjoy this kind of food but then I realized I also struggle with some digestive issue — ( GERD ). Though it's not that bad that up to the point I'm not allowed to eat specific foods but as much as possible I have to have the awareness of my food intakes, but it really is a struggle which somehow causes mild anxiety. Oh my, this is so not nice to open up a post. Anyhow, I might share more about this in the future.
So much of the rambling me; let's get back to this dessert heaven. From the time I've known about this one of a kind dessert right there and then I knew I had to feature this on my blog.
Hello there! Aahh...finaly a new post! It felt like forever since my previous post. How I'm itching to start posting a new topic again. It just that sometimes life gets you occupied. The idea is there but situations are not cooperating though I know I also need to work on with my time management. Sounds like I'm such a busy 'working girl' but no I'm not!haha... Such a lame aspiring 'newbie' blogger. (pls forgive)
I'm so excited in sharing with you my first ever outfit/fashion post. This has to be my favorite topic; fashion. I can see myself posting a lot of fashion ideas and inspiration cause why not? :D
Let's start with this touch of teal color.
Day-off either means staying at home or going outside for a stroll. So when out and about, I'd love to wear comfy clothes yet still look cute. This simple v-neck top is a prefect combination of my skirt. I love how this skirt includes a short underneath which makes it even more comfortable. Since I like to highlight my clothing colors, I decided to go with neutral colors for my bag, shoes and other accessories. Fact about me is that I don't usually wear earrings. I do it for special occasions only. The last time was a long time ago like literally years because I easily get irritated whenever I wear one. :( and even necklaces.huhu... This one barely didn't irritate though I could feel that it's going to but I'm like "No! I need to start wearing jewelries for my fashion posts"..haha.. Not really sure what material I'm allergic to so I'm checking on what it is made of before buying one and still on the testing stage.hehe..
When it comes to clothing, I don't really spend much on branded items though sometimes I do, if it's really worth it, then I indulge in shopping and splurge once in a while. But there are a lot of branded clothes that are too expensive when in fact you can buy that same style for a much cheaper price. It doesn't need to be branded and expensive but of course, if you have a lot of money to spare then you go girl! The important thing here is that you know how to check if that style fits you.
Most of my clothes are from local stores and are given by my older sister. (perks of having a sister :D) With this being said, I could not be specific every time on where I bought this and that. It's either locally made/only available in my area or have it a long time ago which makes no sense in sharing because sharing what brand means you can still look for that store and buy the same item right? Anyways, if there is any then I'll do my best to share it. And maybe in the long run I can afford buying a lot of branded clothes and will surely share it with you.haha.. (who knows!)
No, I don't always look put together and wear nice clothes. A lot of times I wear just plain clothes but I have always loved fashion. I hope you get inspiration and will be able to use your old clothes to mix and match.
Tune in for more JFashion moments! I promise it won't be long! :D

I'll be sharing to you our summer getaway in Boracay last May 26-29. I know it's quite a short trip but we managed to enjoy every bit of it. I'm not gonna say that this is a form of a guide nor review or whatnot since I'm really not good at it. I'll just share our fun time experience and perhaps you may find it helpful.
We managed to reserve a hotel located in Station 3. It is still high season so it was kinda hard to check for the availability of hotels plus we opt for an affordable yet nice and if possible a walking distance to the beach. I mean there were available hotels but most are too pricey and we don't want to spend a lot of money on that just because we'll be spending most of our time outside. So much for that, we shall begin as this is gonna be a long post.

Hello and Welcome to my blog!
This blog is all about me sharing bits and pieces of my life, consider this as an open diary. It may be from my personal views about life as a whole as well as inspiration from other people may also play a big role in my posts. After all, we live in a community with different talents to share. There is no such thing as 'self-made man/woman', we are all made up of thousands of other. However, I must stress that sharing and copying are different. You may be inspired and come up with an idea or discover your ability and interests through other people but never live a life as an imitation. So, this is me channeling my authenticity to all of you.
