Educator's Dress Code- In Black And White

 

We have a dress code for educators in university and I am obliged, like most of my friends, to follow it. I'd hate to be called in for not following the dress code, so here I am showing up in black and white because in all honesty, it's the full-proof color scheme to look presentable. I just added in a couple of knick-knacks to accessorize. I've worn my hair simply and let loose, dumping in loads of Cream Silk's newest conditioner that I got from Sample Room to make it soft and keep it straight. (But I'll discuss more of that in another post.)

I've had this necklace for quite some time now, it's handmade  by Lillie Jewelry and I'm having a hard time locating the creator because this came into possession years and years ago. The details are undeniably exquisite and color combination of the pearls are a great match against a plain white top like the one I wore. If anybody can point me to the right direction and I can give the creator due credit, thanks in advance! (Leave a comment below!)

 

As for my arm candy, I've paired the Gold  and Diamond Accent Watch by Avon with the White Stud Tennis Bracelet from Runway Shop. Does it pair with the pearl necklace? I'll let you decide!

 

 

I would also like you to meet my friend Noynoy, he's a Filipino major but on Dress Code Day, (yup Friday is no longer Wash Day for us Educators) he looks like an Art Teacher. It must be the cropped pants, the folded up sleeves or the portfolio bag, I can say that he pretty much nailed the look.

 

So how do you think did we do on Dress Code Day? If you were to grade us, will it be an (ambitious) A? Or is it a C? Or (please don't let it be) an F? Just teasing!

 

Comment away!

 





All Souls Essentials-Fresh and Protected

All Souls is coming this weekend and I've got to advise all of you to stay protected. If you will be going out to visit dead relatives, you might want to make sure that you are fresh but most importantly, that you have ample protection from the sun.

To give you an idea of what I think are essential, I've put together a collage from my Polyvore and you can see that I chose summer sandals, a fedora hat (because I can't get enough of them), sunglasses and sunblock.

Even your lips need to be protected from the sun so if needed, apply a lip balm and make sure you have SPF just in case the need to reapply arises. Tow in a huge umbrella if you must!

So what could you get by shopping at Adah Belle? Looking at the labels that spell out Burberry, Marc Jacobs and Guess among others, you’re sure to get high quality, handpicked clothing for great prices. I personally don’t get tired of my corporate blazer and my short dresses are just the right choices for those last-minute meet-ups with friends and on special occasions.
