Queen Bee

I'm fairly certain that if this were our high school uniform, I wouldn't look so prim and proper like below. But I love this style so much that I don't give up on recreating the look even if it means I'd have to wear this to work. Haha! But hey, costume holidays would be a nice excuse anyway. :D And what better inspiration to draw from than Queen Bee herself? I believe I've always been a Serena van der Woodsen kind of girl but allow me to be a Blair Waldorf this time. :)

In my other blog, I made a round-up of another current events inspired outfits.  This post would've been a good outfit candidate for a June 12 Philippine Independence Day celebration holiday - a modern take of our very own traditional baro't saya. Sadly, I got the outfit idea a bit late.  I was more in sync with America's July 4th! But, since the SONA (State of the Nation Address) was recently held with everyone talking about the red carpet muses, I thought of sharing this post today.  Plus, it's August - Buwan ng Wika (National Language Week) which makes this a very timely post to embrace everything Filipino. :P

P.S.  I also got some "First Lady" comments when I wore this weeks ago. *wink*
