Being a medical intern, we are allowed to wear civilian clothes during our weekend duty. In this Psychiatry rotation we are allowed to do so but they have a dress code:
*no sleeveless/tube tops/plunging necklines/see-thru
(if you wear sleeveless/tube you'd have to wear the uniform blazer over it)
*no miniskirts
*heels are a yes but no open-toed sandals
(if you wear sleeveless/tube you'd have to wear the uniform blazer over it)
*no miniskirts
*heels are a yes but no open-toed sandals
So I wore my ever reliable men's checkered polo.. This is probably one of the pieces I get most wear because it's no fuss and it's very comfy.. I avoid wearing clingy stuff because it's so hot in the hospital and there's so much work to do that I don't want to worry about my top.. I'm also wearing my super old (6 year old) pink suede pumps from Mango..
Haha and just for kicks I edited this picture to make it appear spooky because last night our resident doctor was telling this crazy scary story about a patient dying in that hall.. And apparently, it was his death anniversary last night! Hmmm I don't know if it's true but it sure scared me!
Moving on..
This was my outfit last Saturday the boy and I got our doggy's papers from the breeder and on the way home we went to Eastwood for an early dinner and I ate Red Mango frozen yogurt for dessert again!! I'm so obsessed with frozen yogurt I actually ate 4x in a week!

I'm wearing a dress/top I bought last weeek from the 495 sale rack in Zara.. I can't believe it's only 495 ($10)! I'm actually not a fan of orange because it reminds me so much of the prison uniform here in the Philippines. I probably own only 2 orange pieces in my closet but I still bought it because I can't resist the SUBTLE DRAPING at the hem.. Plus the upper portion has 2 buttons and when you unbutton it the dress looks like a vest..
So versality + draping = yey!
Top: Both Folded and Hung
Bottom: L-R Tomato, Carolina's, AccesorizeI got the red pearl-like bracelet for only 10 pesos (less than $0.25 cents) =)
such a steal right?
What a steal.. Im not a huge fan of orange either but you look fab!

HAHA.. love that you said Prison Chic in the title! Your orange top worn as a dress is way cute.. love the front draping. And I def. agree that a men's plaid button-down shirt is always a reliable choice. We have Red Mango here too, though I'm a fan of Pinkberry slighly more. My sister prefers Red Mango though. :) Great arm candy as well!

oh the orange is so lovely!
ReplyDeletewow, this dress immediatelly caught my attention, completely my style and guess what, i made a prototipe of a dress that looks exactly like this dress, the turn on the front is the same , the only difference is that in the prototipe you can open the dress and turn it into a vest. amazing how people think the same :x
ReplyDeletehey! yes, i do the drawings. whenever i have the time i like to draw. well, the prototipe was a work for a school project in my fashion course, maybe someday i'll finish that up into the real piece. so, how r u involved in fashion? or u just like it?
