Trying to Break Away From My Usual Fashion Mode

I'll be going to Boracay soon to experience the island life for six weeks so I've been trying as best I can to wear those new heels I bought from People are People a couple of weeks back, even if it's just going on a simple movie date with my hubby.

If you've noticed, I am the typical "terno" kind of gal. I like wearing matching bags and shoes, matching top and bottom, matching everything, color-wise that is. However, lately, I've been reading that this kind of fashion is out and wearing innovative color combination and mixing weird patterns are in. Somehow I always end up wearing something that matches in a so-called old fashion kind of way. Usually I don't really care. It's my body, my comfort, my style. I think I look good and for me, this kind of healthy appreciation for one's own sense of style is what really matters. But on these two particular weekends...

I tried to break out from my usual fashion mode just to see if I'll find it comfortable and sexy. But as I didn't have enough time to explore this new territory, for now at least, I ended up with something doable like wearing tan heels that I think went pretty well with my fuchsia blouse from Kirin-Kirin, gray pinstriped shorts that I used to sell before and puffy blazer from Landmark. On another occasion I wore my red heels with a yellow tube top from Bench under a black cardigan sweater and black shorts from Landmark. In the end, I still ended up wearing something that semi-matches, color-wise. Oh well. It's a start. ^_^
