Sundays In Earth Tones

So I haven't posted in a while and that's with good reason: I swear that I don't think I've ever been so busy in my life and I'm barely halfway into the school year! By some miracle, deadlines were moved and I managed to shed most of the workload by sleeping later than I usually do trying to finish what I need to finish. After I type out this blog post, I'm pretty sure I'm going to be spending the rest of the day trying to finish as much of the work as I can. Also, I'm blogging for the first time on my new laptop which makes me giddy every time I look at it! I've recently upgraded to an ASUS X500LN which is better by leaps and bounds than my old MacBook (May it rest in peace. LOL) in terms of every single aspect! To be fair, my MacBook was the really *really* old one. It wasn't even in an aluminum body yet. Anywho, I might post a quick review with my experience using it here on the blog as my very first tech review of sorts and see how it pans out.

Whoaaa, that's a long intro. Haha! Time for the outfit of the day! Read on to learn more about this outfit! :)

This was what I wore to the Big Big MOA Sale a few weeks back. I think this is one of the rare times that I wore a brown shirt, if not the first time for this blog, and I'm really surprised at how much I liked how this outfit turned out! I've always been very inspired by fall fashion because of my natural attraction towards deep and rich colors since I was very young. I'd always prefer dark colors while most people my age would go for brights and neons all the way. Just because the Philippines only experiences either crippling heat or pouring rain doesn't mean we can't get in on the fall trends! That is, other than the pretty coats. Haha!

Obsessed with this faux inner sleeved shirt that I got from Human a while ago. I rarely buy brown colored tops and I don't even know why. I'm so happy there are local brands like Human who aren't afraid to produce pieces that aren't the usual 3/4 tops and raglans.

My one and only burgundy bag makes yet another appearance on the blog. It's rich vintage red and antique hardware combination is so perfect for fall fashion I cannot even. It can store so much and is incredibly affordable at about 700 bucks from The SM Store. :D

Aaaand I'm finally looking at the camera here! LOL my friends who read my blog have been bugging me to look at the camera for once because the "looking away" pose is getting old. Haha! If you guys are reading this, I hope you're happy. :D

White sneakers for that nice sporty vibe and great contrast to the super dark outfit!

Human top, UNIQLO jeans, K-Swiss sneakers, The SM Store bag. (Hype this look on lookbook here!)

I hope everyone's enjoying their long weekend! I will unfortunately be working my butt off for the next few days!! Wish me luck! Also, tell me what you think of this outfit! :)
