Baguio Fashion: Then and Now

One thing I love about traveling is the art of packing.You know why? Coz before I get to pack my clothes (according to the sequence of wearing them), I make sure that I do a little fashion show first inside the comforts of our own bedroom just so I'm sure that I'm comfy and that I look good with what I plan to wear, much more so if I'm going to a cold place like Baguio. This means that I'd be able to wear once again some of my fur coats, fur gloves, leather jackets and my favorite pair of suede boots. ^_^

Anyway, looking back, I really see a pattern with my sense of fashion whenever I'd go to Baguio. I was there on Thursday and Friday when I got the privilege to stay at Mines View Park Hotel. Thank God for this trip, I got to don once again my favorite pieces from my own collection of cold apparel, which I have accumulated the last decade.

It was in 1998 when I first went to Baguio with my college friends. I remember the place to be very romantic that I swore to never go back there again lest I come with the love of my life... coz it can really get lonely if you go there on your own. So, in 2002, after I got married and my mother-in-law suffered an untimely death, Peter and I decided to go there for a change of atmosphere after all those heart breaking moments.


Then in
2005, a year after we became members of Club Panoly, we used some of our points to enjoy its affiliate hotel in Baguio.


Year 2007 was when I celebrated my birthday there in time for the Panagbenga Festival and Brownman Revival's Gig.



Year 2010 was when I first came to Baguio with my fellow bloggers sponsored by Mines View Park Hotel.

It feels nice to be able to wear my old stuff like my suede jacket, suede boots, Mango boots and beret. I think they still look good on me after all these years, and more importantly, I still feel comfortable wearing them. I got these things at various ukay-ukay shops before.

'Til my next Baguio trip! ^_^
