GIRLS OF SEXY MIND: 5th feature

(If you still haven't read the first post for the introduction and the sneak peek, I suggest you read it first to know exactly why I chose the girls I'm featuring on my blog.)

Last but definitely not the least...

(5) Janina

Usually you'll get to know a person as you spend time with them, but Janina and I weren't that close when I was still in UPLB; our bond did not start that typical way. It could be argued that we are part of the same organization, the thing is, that was just it, plainly casual. Even so, being on the same circle is a big plus which blossomed to... what we have now (I wanna say for keeps friendship but it sounds so corny, haha)

We actually spent time together since we were groupmates in Urban Sociology and had fieldworks as sideline to go thrift shopping, lol. But it was actually the time when I go to campus for occasional visits. We would text each other and meet, but never did I feel a tinge of unfamiliarity. There was this instant vibe of connection whenever we talk about just anything. As conversations jumped from one topic to another, I could not help but nod for thoughts that are most likely in congruence with mine --it's insane!! I adore her light-spirited wit and you could never accuse her of lifting a braggart bone.

HER STYLE, MASCULINE: It was never her secret that she wears her dad's clothes and goes to men's section for clothes. She usually wears an over-sized tee, leggings, and flip-flops or sneakers. She's a leggings-over-jeans and flats-over-heels (who wouldn't want the comfort?! K, wrong query point) person.

WHAT TO LOVE: It's definitely her cool style and thrift finds. I really love looking at her and thinks that she plays her (and her dad's ;p) wardrobe pretty well. 

Gold dress and heels 'coz sometimes you also need to wear heels ;p

 over-sized tee, leggings, and sneakers + sunnies

SAY HELLOJANINA: You can follow her on Chictopia. She also blogs here on blogger and on tumblr too.

GIRLS OF SEXY MIND: 3rd feature

(If you still haven't read the first post and the sneak peek, I suggest you read it first to know exactly why I chose the girls I'm featuring on my blog. And check out the previous featured post to know what I exactly think about her, et cetera...)

(3) Kamilluh

I actually do not how to describe this lady in one thought. It seems there's a lot going on in her personality if you try to dissect her --as what I'm trying to do. Or should I say, I do not want to sound like I admire almost everything about her... but how could I hide the seemingly "she fished for comments" description! Sufficiently, she is one person I know that is literally of sexy mind and pretty face. Consequently, I think people who know her would approve of it too. She is one hot lady that anything you make her wear will surely flatter on her body. On top of it all, with the confidence she has, she can carry off anything.

She knows how to articulate herself. I will not forget the time when we had a picture taken with Mong Alcaraz and it was somewhat a huge issue since we-know-why. I was really thankful that we got in the same situation. If I would be stricken with words, I wouldn't know how to defend myself. I'll just keep my mouth shut and let them throw all they want. But thank God, she came up with this rock star syndrome. And with few words, thus, strong point, we were out of ill criticisms. Thanks to your mettlesome tongue. ;)

WHY SAY THAT: THAT'S FROM MONTHS AGO ALREADY: Again, simply because I couldn't forget about it, haha! And I'd like to point out that she's persuasive and assertive like that...

I FIGURED: I pointed out that it seems there's a lot going on in her personality... I think because she is interested in almost anything, be that music, movies down to male topics such as basketball yet she really knows a lot and really gets in to it. There's this saying and every time I encounter it I am reminded of her.. "we're only young once so let's fcuk it up right" (thinking out loud: I ain't sure if this is the quote but it's somewhat like this, haha).

ONE LB GIRL, ONE LAID BACK GIRL: If there is one word that would describe her everyday style it would totally be laid back. According to her, she is a tank top and denim person. She prefers drab over loud colors. Nonetheless, she makes it a point that everything's toned down.

sexy back from Topshop

from her fb... the watermark is still there naman. ;) see, tank top and jeans girl!

 

 by the way, she's a jock too!

This is our decision, to live fast and die young.
We've got the vision, now let's have some fun.

GIRLS OF SEXY MIND: 2nd feature

(If you still haven't read the previous post and the sneak peek, I suggest you read it first to know exactly why I chose the girls I'm featuring on my blog.)

(2) Leemae

According to studies, an individual processes information with the dominant brain hemisphere. They say one is either more of the left brain or of the right brain. Left side brainers lean more on logical thinking and analysis and are objective while the right side subjects are more on the intuitive and are subjective in view of things happening around them. To keep this shorter and what we knew back in elementary years, left brain students are good in mathematics while right brain students cling more on creativity and art. 

As I was browsing on the internet, I saw this one article regarding the left brain vs. right brain matter which made me me nod that she really is a right brain mujer, haha...

"Left brain people want to know the rules and follow them. In fact, if there are no rules for situations, they will probably make up rules to follow! Left brain students know the consequences of not turning in papers on time or of failing a test. But right brain students are sometimes not aware that there is anything wrong." -directly lifted from HERE (haha, this made me remember her, and yea, I am sweet like tis!)

  

Despite the seemingly negative point, I totally adore right brainers! I, myself, think that I am more leaning on my right brain. But one thing I am certain of, I can't edit photos and the like the way she does. I don't know the way around photoshop --I am no gnarly one... which makes me eulogize the works of kickass right brainers and admire the beauty their eyes see. They know how to use their resources well and transform them creatively. Yes, I am talking about Leemae from which I can very well relate these "surmises" upon.

Another thing I am sure of about her is she really knows how to carry herself. She spends time in vanity and in editing them. Nonetheless, she executes them nicely --with the right blend and manipulation, not overdoing the editing which I abhor in most photoshop-ed ones.

TO END:  And because she is a fan of "shameless plugging", might as well plug her sites for you to know more about her and her works. You can follow her on tumblr, twitter for updates and multiply for more photos. 

'COZ I NEED NOT SAY MORE: Here are some of her photos showing off her style which she glamorously edited too... Hippie!! Suffice to say, she, herself, is her own masterpiece...

GIRLS OF SEXY MIND: Intro and 1st feature

If there is one thing I've learned from writing ample research paper, reflection paper and everything in between, it is to clearly define terms. So, when I say I admire pretty girls with really sexy mind, by sexy mind I mean there's vehemence in their word and their works. A sexy mind knowing how to articulate herself well where she's good at. 

There are LOTS of pretty girls, I know! When I thought of having this post, 10 to 15 names sprung. But I think there's this seemingly thin line which separates a girl of a great mind from another girl. I guess, I always  thought that there's gotta be more to being physically attractive.

With that being (ambiguously, haha) stated, I came up with five lassies I've met with looks and wit. Thus, I will keep the series of posts with utmost honesty on what I think about them...

(1) Bea and "Curtis and Curtis"

I knew Bea back in elementary. As I'm trying to recall those days, she's one pretty girl even before and she dances well ('coz I remember her as part of the dance troupe, haha). On one end, we both left San Lorenzo to spend intermediate learning some school else. And for college, she went to Ateneo. So, we never really got to talk from then on. Subsequently, nothing has changed, she remains to be this witty classy girl.

When asked what her style is, she really does not know how to define it. But one thing is sure, according to her, she shops for everything chic which is reflected in her daily outfits. Personally, I find girls who dress up the girly-way adorable, I deem that they can get away with anything...

WHERE TO SHOP FOR CHIC STYLE: Good news, her style is made available for everyone. Bea and her sister put up an online shop, labeled Curtis and Curtis, of to-die-for clothes and accessories (such as belts, necklaces, bracelets/bangles) sourced from her sister's travel abroad and some are designed exclusively by C&C. 

As I feast my eyes on C&C's delectable site, great clothes modeled by fab ladies welcomed me, then, I looked at the prices and they are incredibly affordable! Visit their multiply online shop HERE and see it for yourselves, you can also like curtisandcurtis on facebook, and follow them on twitter for updates. :)

A 'LIL SUMTHIN' SOMETHING: CURTIS & CURTIS

I love their skirts and lace tops and found really nice affordable accessories!!

"Stay tuned", there are four more ladies to be unraveled!

'coz BOYS wanna dress up too

Nothing still beats the thrill I had during the time I got hooked on The OC. Mainly because I follow Seth Cohen and Summer Robert's cute story. :') Since then, I became a fan of Adam Brody. I am pointing this out because someone reminds me of Seth Cohen/Adam Brody's "hollywood" style as he calls THE look. LOL.

The look: Plain shirt + jeans + sneakers + a coffee/soda on one hand (haha). Holding food can be a good accessory in paparazzi shots. ;-p Wearing sunglasses can make you look A-ok too since you don't have to express your eyes much and look odd under the sun. #diba

 Plain blue shirt, Vans sneakers, Odd Fit katsa messanger bag, and sunglasses

 YABANG PINOY BRACELET

Plain shirt still, but, in Maroon this time 

Most of the time, we do not pay attention to what guys wear. Guys don't usually wear a bag, if they do, they'll settle on back pack or that shoe bag which is odd (well, at least for me). But this canvas bag is perfect, not lessening one's masculinity.

This bag is from Odd Fit, a local brand which he personally makes and distributes. Personally, I would like to have one and make it like Lindsay Lohan's bag in Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen with lots of button pins, badges and even make doodles on it. ;-p

You can also wear your pride which is stylish nowadays. He is wearing a Yabang Pinoy braided abaca bracelet as an accessory.

LASTLY, having facial hair is SEXY and VERY MASCULINE! LOL! ;-p

LET'S COMPARE AND SEE:

SEE, boys can be stylish yet functional too!
