Here comes the sun

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,
and I say it's all right

Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
and I say it's all right
Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
and I say it's all right

Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...

-Here Comes the Sun, The Beatles


I'm not much of T-shirt person but I am such a Beatles person. ha! (is there such a phrase?)
The Daddy and the brother are Beatles crazy and the craze eventually rubbed off on all of us.
So when I saw this shirt in Surplus a month ago I knew I had to get it.
Love its unique print and for 250 pesos, what's there not to love?

Vintage looking Beatles shirt from Surplus shop, skirt from SM, Belt from Forever 21, Stella McCartney knock-offs from Renegade Folk

Pic ala Jak and Jil =P
For the first time in a few weeks, I felt the heat of the sun again!It was quite scorching but I'm not complaining because
the hotter it is the faster the flood waters will dry up. Hope they do so really soon!
Especially to those in the Northern Luzon areas.

The verses above are from the Beatles (my favorite band!) song "Here comes the sun".
I feel like the lyrics are so fitting with the current situation in our country.
Except that we didn't have a cold lonely winter instead we had a cold and lonely typhoon/flooded season.


I'm posting an outfit pic of my sister/photographer too!
When I saw her dress I blurted out, "That looks kinda A.Wang, Spring 2010!".
She answered, "Oh really? I got it for 60 pesos (less than$2) sa ukay ukay" (thrift shop).
Me: "Pahiram ako next time ah!" (I'm gonna borrow that next time)

Dress: thrifted; Bag: Louis Vuitton; Scarf: Coach; Havaianas flipflops; YRYS leopard bangle;
Rubber band used as bracelet from National Bookstore;

Last na lang, I saw this super cute Beatles action figure (?) at Clipper's last week. Super cute I wanted to get all four and give 1 each to my siblings pero Mahalia Mendez (expensive) almost a thousand each.. Nyek wag na lang (never mind) maybe next time!=)

Enjoy your weekend! I sure am enjoying mine.
A bit too much because I woke up too late for my Sunday duty.
Haha at least I have 1 more free day.=P

Sean, can I have your jacket? And your dad's and uncles' too?
Yoko's style is so different from when she was younger no?
She looks very elegant but I miss her eclectic dressing and her crazy hair..=)
Whatever happened to him and Irina Lazareanu? They were together before, right?
