Celebrate joy!

Christmas is such a beautiful time of the year because not only are the streets decked with lights and festive decorations, but it's the season where a walk becomes a leisurely treat for us residing here in Manila because of the unusually cool weather. :) ...and it is when the air becomes extra chilly that we can finally pile ourselves with knitwear, scarves and wear those nude-suede ankle boots we bought on sale last year without having to sweat like crazy. Lol! That's just how it rolls here in a tropical country. :) A beach is nice, don't get me wrong...I love the beach! Pero minsan diba feel mo lang magscarf and boots??! Aminin :P So for 2 months at least, we can finally incorporate these fashionably-fit-for-winter pieces in our outfits! Hooray! Since the options have expanded for us sun-loving locals once Ber months roll in, here are some outfits you may want to don. These are basic pieces with a twist fitting for the cool weather:

Great things come in small packages... and sometimes, fashion icons come in the form of ultra-petite and super-cute women like this one right here, Rachel Bilson! Gaining popularity from her OC days, and now playing the lead character in the hit sitcom Hart of Dixie whilst bearing Hayden Christensen's baby (yep, she's pregnant!), one notable thing about this lady is her amazing fashion sense. She just keeps upping her fashion game with unique yet classy pieces whether in the likes of colorful scarves, spunky wedge heels, and big studded handbags. Here are a few of my fave Bilson looks:

It's been awhile since I did a fashion post, and for this post let me put the spotlight on this fashion-forward lady whose style I have come to admire. Ready? :) Vanessa Hudgens This girl has come a long way from her cutesy outfits during her High school Musical days, and have grown her personality and style through the years.
