I only got time today to actually take photos of the other batch of my Christmas Sale buys. This batch is what I call "The drapey, flowy dresses edition". I believe that if something fits you well and it's also something that you love, buy multiples of it :D I love drapey & flowy dresses since it doesn't cling to the body and it hides a multitude of body flaws. So I bought a lot of them while it's on sale... and most importantly, while I have money :P
The first batch are all solid colored: 
|  | 
| cobalt blue jersey dress: Landmark | 
|  | 
| maroon blue jersey dress: Landmark | 
|  | 
| black blue jersey dress (sleeveless version): Landmark | 
|  | 
| up close draping of the black dress |

| draped jersey dress: Blanc et Noir @ SM Department Store | 
|  |

| aquamarine jersey dress: Philosophy @ SM Dept Store |  |  |  |  |

I love the idea that these dresses are like a blank canvas. It can be matched with bold and/or printed accessories :) 
Now on to the printed dresses:
|  | 
| hat print garterized dress: Tomato | 
|  | 
| The hats are so pretty :D | 
|  | 
| Pink & Gray animal printed draped dress: Philosophy @ SM Dept Store | 
|  | 
| The print and the drapes | 
|  | 
| purple bohemian printed chiffon dress: Tomato | 
|  | 
| love the print and the color combo or purple, white, & turquoise | 
 I just can't live without anything printed so I think it's just right for me to buy these dresses (ok, I'm just justifying my items :P).
I usually buy at Landmark and SM Department Store since they have a lot of inexpensive yet very chic items. I especially like Philosophy & Blanc et Noir so when I go to SM, these are the brands that I first check out.
This year, I've added Tomato to the go-to list. I really thought that their dresses are only for the very petite/slim but I was surprised that their dresses fit me as well (I'm a bit chubby and I have a stomach pouch to hide hahaha). They also have a very pretty collection of flats as well.
Since 2012 is now here, I wish you all more great finds to come :)
XOXO
P.S. Apologies for the poor quality of the photos. I was still a bit sleepy when I took this pics so it was taken in a rush :D
Hi Esther! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteI love your Tomato dresses! I didn't realize that they now have apparel for larger sizes, last time I was there, pang-payat lahat ng nakita ko.
I especially love the last one, will check out Tomato soon.

Hi Dea! nice to see you in my blog :D Happy New year too! I was really surprised that those dresses fit me--- and they're both in Medium :D I guess it also depends on the design. Both of the dresses are garterized so it's stretchable.
ReplyDeleteI love the solid colors and I think I'm doing my shopping during end of season sale. Humanda ka wallet!
