The Modern Vampire

A little bit “white trash”, a little bit “rockstar”, a little bit “hungover” would be the combination of words I would use to describe this latest outfit.

Sporting my favorite sunnies by H&M. I just love the tint, the form and the color scheme!

My current favorite graphic tee by Zara. I adore gold print, and the aesthetics of the graphic on the shirt are simply divine.

Eventually had to take off the woollen sweater, even after sunset the Philippine weather doesn’t allow for much layering.

What I’m wearing: graphic tee - Zara; combat boots, spray-on skinny jeans - Topman; sunglasses - H&M; studded leather belt, woollen jacket - borrowed.

Although the jacket is a crucial part of the overall look, the ensemble doesn’t look too shabby sans the gargantuan black coat. I love how it covers your hands as well though, with thought given to allowing the fingers to pass through.

I notice that I’ve been combining a lot of Zara and Topman lately. Either the two lines have similar looks that allow me to mix and match between their collections or it’s merely coincidental. 

Blogpost title is taken from my current deadmau5 song addiction of the week, you can listen to it here.

Thanks to Yenee for taking these photos of me!

Dressed up a little bit dark today, complete with spikes and crucifixes.

Completed the gothic look with a myriad of metal accessories by Topman along with an elegant timepiece by Tomato Time.

Look would not be complete with reflective sunglasses a-la-Lady-Gaga and my favorite skinny jeans, both by Folded and Hung.

I would have to say that this outfit is a health hazard, to say the least.

What I’m wearing: studded sweater, leather boots - Zara; crucifix, reflective sunglasses, skinny jeans - Folded and Hung; watch - Tomato Time; metal accessories - Topman.

I normally wouldn’t wear such expressive pieces together, but it seemed appropriate for my mood that day. I used to wear all-black outfits a lot a few years back, and I have to say that this is probably the first time in months that I’ve donned an all-black ensemble for a normal day out.

Although slimming, black has its illusory limits. The high-contrast with my skin tone gives a nice slimming effect, but for many people with darker skin tones I would suggest bright colours instead.

Thanks to Yenee and Emilio for helping me take these photos!

Came to school wearing an icy white and blue outfit, probably one of the last time’s I’ll be comfortable wearing long sleeves out now since summer is finally on its way!

Vintage illustrated leather portfolio, found a few years ago among my mother’s old things from working abroad.

Feathered hat and aztec print sweater both by Folded and Hung.

Trusty leather bag, handmade in Marikina following a design by H&M.

Favorite gray plimsolls by Topman.

I find that wearing a feather in my cap brings me more productivity and luck, or maybe it’s just total coincidence.

Love this photo, excellent focus, balance, and depth.

What I’m wearing: feathered cap, aztec print sweater - Folded and Hung; watch - ASOS; spray-on skinny jeans, plimsolls, metal accessories - Topman; leather portfolio - vintage; leather bag - handmade.

I’m not a huge fan of wearing white, but this sweater from Folded and Hung is one of my favorite pieces of last year’s collection. I find that the fashions from Folded and Hung mesh really well with items from Topman, I use the combination in almost every outfit of mine, so far this year anyway.
