Girly, Demure, Classic, Hip

I wore this outfit to our last class/block pictorial in law school. It consists of a pink halter top, a skirt I've had since college, and a nice chained belt that looks very classic. I wanted a girly, demure, classic but at the same time, hip image for the class picture.

Blouse - Greenhills; Skirt - Babo / Nava; Shoes - Naturalizer; Bag - Nine West

I love how the skirt looks leathery.

25

So, today is my birthday and I am now 25 years old! I am so thankful to the Lord for everything that He has given me the last 25 years and I'm excited for whatever the next years will give me (I'm sure my following years will be great or even greater!).

I celebrated with my law school friends, my family and Nikko today. I went to school for a one-hour class and I was surprised by my friends and classmates with a shoe-shaped birthday card (which made me cry) and gifts. When I came home, Nikko was there waiting for me with my family and I opened his presents right away (loved them!). Then, my family went to Galileo Enoteca in Eastwood to have dinner.

I wore my Style Staple Camille two-tone dress, which I ordered from my high school batchmate and friend Arvie. I ordered some dresses just a few days before and told her I would be wearing one of them today for my birthday and she immediately shipped out the items. I got them yesterday and I'm so thankful to her 'cause they got to me on time. :) Call me shallow but for me, a good birthday is not complete without a nice outfit. Haha.   

Happy birthday to me!

Dress - Style Staple; Shoes - Sophisticat Shoes; Bag - Prada

Thanks, Maan and R for the gift! :)

These were waiting for me at my desk when I arrived in school today. I loved the Stefani Heelless inspired birthday card and I loved the messages inside! :)

It was truly another special birthday. Best birthday ever! I know I say this every year but somewhat, my birthday just keeps getting even better and better every year.

Thank you to everyone who made me feel so loved! :)

JD = Janna's Defense

So yesterday, I defended my thesis for law school. It was the first time I went through something like that and it really was an unforgettable experience. The defense lasted for an hour and there were three panelists asking me questions and commenting on my paper. It was very challenging and difficult and I'm really glad it's all over now. :)

I was just so happy when I heard from the Thesis Center that I had already been graded for my work. They actually liked my written output. Yay!

My girlfriends accompanied me to the thesis defense area. They were so supportive and I love them so much!

When it was over, I cried. I felt mixed emotions. My friends were still there, waiting for me. Also, Nikko showed up with a bouquet of flowers. My mom, who went to the chapel met up with us, too and treated us to dinner. I am just so blessed to have loving people around me.

Here are some photos:

Taken before my defense. Thank you, friends!

And after! Suit - made-to-order; Shoes - Sophisticat Shoes

I  cried!

With my girls. I love you! <3

And one more! Thank you, Loves!

Thank you so much, Nik! <3

Bunny Ears

Last night, we had a party/awards night for our Legal Forms class at the Skylounge of the Citadel Inn in Burgos, Makati. Hahaha. (Remember our movie poster?) The party was Playboy-themed and so the girls had to wear bunny ears. I volunteered to make the bunny ears and my mom helped me make all 23 pairs of them!

This is what I wore:

Corset from a department store
White Dress worn as skirt (feathery things added by my fabulous mom);
Black tutu skirt from Hot Topic
Black stockings from a department store
Bunny ears made by me and Mom

Those black and red curly ornaments were also made by my mom and me!

These are the photos from the event:

Something Corporate

Today, we had our last Legal Forms class. Our law professor wanted for us to take a class picture and so I wore my best business attire. To those of you who think fashion and law school don't really click, I suggest you visit the Ateneo Law School.

I like this photo a lot because looking at it makes me feel that I'm already a lawyer. Haha.

My dad, a lawyer, insisted that I should have this suit made, when he brought me with him to his tailor. The polo inside's also tailor-made and I specifically wanted it to be pink because of Elle Woods. The shoes are those Skeleton pumps I got last December.

Meet my block: Ateneo Law School's 3B

Of course, there will always be a wacky shot.

Some of my friends.

And my pretty best friend in law school, Kathy
