Welcome Readers!

Welcome to the Mystic Blog of the only Mystic Nymph! I hope you have a blast reading my thoughts, and I hope you drop by again!

I'll let you in a little revelation about my favorite usernames in my virtual sites. First is about my Mikimoto Angel pen name. Mikimoto is a famous brand of pearl accessories in America. I first saw that brand in Vogue Magazine. I got mesmerized by that label, and I thought of using it. I just added Angel from my name "Angela". Thus, the formation of Mikimoto Angel.

For my other pen name Mystic Nymph, the word mystic really came from the show Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog. I used to be so hooked to that show. I am also obsessed with mythologies, and nymphs are mythical creatures depicted as beautiful young women who are considered as guardians of objects and places in nature. Thus, the evolution of Mystic Nymph.

Child's Play: Racer's Girl

Blush on used as eyeliner - AVON
Lipstick - Rouge a Levres
Danglings - from England

Chiffon Top - Dorothy Perkins
Tank Top - Secret Possessions
Shorts - H&M
Gold Belt - Thai Brand (from England)
Boots - Le Donne
Bangle - Tiangge at CDO
I've always loved the motocross sport, and that's exactly my inspiration on my outfit for today's episode of Child's Play. Let me be a racer's girl, just for now. What I like about this ensemble is that it screams fierce. It's not the usual meek me. That is why I love black! It makes my personality come out strong, although I'm not very sure about that. Does it? That DP top is one of my favorite chiffon tops ever, because of its ruffles and floral details. I've worn that for at least five times already. I have to make it rest for a long while, cause I don't want it get worn out that easily. Another thing is, I have to buy another set of accessories because I'm getting fed up with what I have.

Child's Play: Demure Lass

I'm a timid girl. People around me know that so well. I hate to admit that, cause I never wanted to be one. I mostly don't participate in chitchats and stuffs like that. My voice isn't heard that much in person. I speak and act only when I feel like I have to. I only mingle with people whom I feel comfortable being with. Good thing though that my timidity stops whenever I do the things I consider as my passion -- writing and of course, dressing up.

On that note, I'll be showing you how I dress up like a demure lass for the second episode of Child's Play.



The dress and wedges help me pull off a prim and proper character since it's difficult to move about when an outfit is not on-the-go. You always have to be very careful with every move you make so nothing comes out in the open. I actually love how this off-the-shoulder dress adds a touch of seduction to trim down my modesty a little.



My Outfit

Chiffon Dress: Hush Hush (Vintage)
Wedges: Mario D' Boro
Belt: No Label (From England)
Studs: No Label (From England)
Bracelet: No Label (Thrift Shop)

This is a bit off topic, but I just feel like I have to express it anyway. I hate my poses a big deal. I think I need somebody to tutor me on how to strike a pose better for this fashion series. Anyone available? Kidding.

How do you dress up like a demure lass by the way?

Mystic Nymph Poses for a Break

I love it when I'm all so glammed up. For me, fashion is such a brilliant way to feel perked up and refreshed. It's really nice going to school in stylish comfort, isn't it? I think everyone knows, especially my friends, that I'm so crazy about the idea of dressing up, and mixing & matching clothes. I've cultivated a taste for fashion since I began studying in a school where everybody is free, and that freedom includes our choice of whatever we want to wear. We can put some aesthetic effort on our get-up whenever we feel like it. How perfectly terrific, right?

Being a fashion aficionado as I am, I should also have my own fashion mantra, and that would be this: We can do so much on what we own. That is absolutely the essence of mixing and matching your apparels. We shouldn't dwell on what we lack. My mood for the "photo shoot" calls for a girly girl yet animalistic look. As I reviewed all my clothes in my closet, I discovered that I actually have a leopard printed top. I didn't really notice it. What's lovelier is that, my garments' prominent colors fall under my favorite color combination -- brown & black.

I still haven't edited the contrast. Peace!


Immitated this pose from Vogue Magazine.


Do I look animalistic? I bet not!


I love Dorothy Perkins!


At our beloved canteen, Kalimudan.


I so love this shot!

Fashion and photography make me sane.


Black and brown look lovely together.


I don't like my smile!


How I wish I'm a motocross player!

My Outfit

Knitted Cardigan: Fish
Bow-neck Chiffon Top: Massimo Dutti
Shorts: H&M
Low-heeled Pumps: Parisian
Leather Waisted Belt: Got that from England
Leather Shoulder Bag: Got that from England
Leopard Headband: Got that from England
Over-sized Bangles: SM Dep't Store

Those were some of my favorite shots. I have to admit that I really suffer from itchy trigger finger, especially when I feel good about my outfit. It disappoints me whenever I'm all dressed up with my favorite attire, and there's nothing to capture it. Does anyone of you share the same sentiment? I hope you enjoyed my little fashion show. Til our next shutterbug adventure.

I Super Love Dorothy Perkins

One of my best loved fashion brands is Dorothy Perkins alongside Massimo Dutti, H&M and Zara. I love their styles! I already have five DP tops, and I wish they get to multiply. I definitely want some more! I've posted some tops that I badly want to have. Mom, hear the desires of my heart! They're perfect for some smart casual mood. Now, I can't help but imagine myself on them. I wouldn't ask for more if I get the chance to have these all! (Kidding)


This Bow-neck Long Sleeved Chiffon Top is just so lovely!



Pair this Folk rock rose print chiffon blouse with shorts.



Uttam Pink Tartan Ruffle Dress. Isn't it nice?



I want this Paisley chiffon tunic with beaded neckline!



One would really look adorable on this Uttam Pink Vintage Dress.



Lila Multi Colour Gypsy Top. It's just so sizzling hot!



Paprika Paisley Chiffon Pussy Bow Blouse. Love the name & style!


Chiffon, ruffles and bow-neck tops are really my fetish when it comes to fashion. I love everything with details. I think they look so nice on girly girls like me. They look so feminine and fragile. Fits my personality. I have five Chiffon tops in my closet, but not all are from Dorothy Perkins. If I get my first pay check on my first formal job, I'm thinking of investing on a collection of DP dresses and tops. Wishful thinking again. I believe that if one has a will, anything is possible. Am I right? :-D

Katrina's Thought Bubbles

+ I love Chiffon tops! They're so light and easy to wear. I already have four, and now I'm asking Mom to buy me a Chiffon DRESS. Say yes, Mom!



+ I don't know what is it with Indian Music that amuses me that much. When I listen to it, I feel like being hypnotized. It's enchanting! :-)

+ A beautiful quote from the movie Eat Pray Love: "Balance, my darling, is not letting anybody love you less than you love yourself." (Felipe)



+ "Mend the broken. Make strong the weak. And without hesitations, vanquish the evil." Just watched Legend of the Guardians. Good film! :-)



+ Bruschetta from Zabadani Cafe. This is delicious, because of the Olives, Tomato & Cheese. Enticing! It's one of my favorite food joints now!


+ The guy version of You Belong with Me made me like the song! He wears polo, I wear T-shirt. He's team captain, and I'm on a bleacher. Cute!

+ Be careful with the emoticons you choose. They might send a wrong message, creating a bad vibe for you and the one you're communicating to.

+ It's hard to be good when the people around you are too judgmental. Those who see only the bad side, and point out all the wrong deeds. :-(

+ I hate people who act so carefree as if they're not guilty even though it's quite obvious that they've done something wrong. So irritating!

+ I love Asking Alexandria's cover of Akon's Right Now (Na-na). The breakdowns are just so superb. They made the song sound way better! :-)

Labels Hanging In My Wadrobe

I’m actually not particular with the label with the clothes I put on. Just as long as many people don’t wear the same style as mine (that’s why I don’t like Artwork), they look good on me, and most importantly, I’m comfortable wearing them. If those clothes get worn out that easily, then too bad for me; if I get some that are durable, then I’m lucky. Whoever says we can’t find quality items out of generics? It’s just a matter of handling them properly. Everything wears down, without exceptions to branded garments. But, I also have to admit that high-class brands help us boost our ego. They make us feel more decent for some reasons. So now, let me disclose about some of the labels hanging in my closet.

ASOS



This is a white long blouse as you can see in the picture. It’s actually knee-length, so I can wear it even without leggings. But the cloth is a little see-through, so I still have to wear undergarments. What I don’t like about this wardrobe is that it gets crumpled that easily, and it’s difficult to iron out.

Bayo



My favorite Bayo blouse is my red one, because it’s very eye-catching. One of our professors even said, she likes it as well. These two in the picture are long blouses. I can wear them with either jeans or leggings.

Dorothy Perkins

This is one of my much loved brands, because it has a lot of lovely designs. As you can notice, I have four of it in my closet. My most beloved among them is my floral Chiffon top. I can wear it whether in smart casual or laid-back mood.

F&F


I have three F&F items. I only use the pink one as an undergarment. The red-and-white halter is a Fifa World Cup inspired top which is designed for England devotees. I love my F&F leggings because it’s so soft and light as if you’re not wearing it at all.

H&M



The one in the picture is a Snoopy inspired dress. Yes, it’s a dress. But I don’t have a full body picture of me on it. Maybe next time, I’ll try to take a picture of it. I use it rarely because our school is not a dress-friendly place, if you know what I mean UPians.

La Senza



I love this top. It emphasizes my body, even though it’s not a fitting piece. And, I also love the giraffe design. But what bugs me is that, I know La Senza as a lingerie company. Do you think this one should be worn as a nighty instead?

Massimo Dutti



I just love Chiffon tops, and this one’s got a bow tie as well. It’s perfect for my fashion standard, because I’m in love with anything that has buttons and ribbons. I’ve been wearing it often since I got it, so now I’m going to make it rest for a long time. I’m going to make myself miss it.

New Look



This is a turtle-neck top with glitters. I wear it with jeans and doll shoes, since it doesn’t look like informal, at least for me. I wear it with undergarment.

Ring Spun



This is one of my dearly loved wardrobes hanging in my closet, not because of the brand but because of the style. According to its tag, its style is called Crazy Eights and the color is Dove White. It’s only worn with black or white leggings. Because of its length, I think I can use it as a dress too.

Shapes



I bought this top for only 450php because it was on sale. I used this for my first speech in college. Notice the black button. It looks so nice. It accentuates the dullness of off-white.

Zara



This is a basic tee from Zara, and it’s made in Turkey. I hardly ever know clothes that are made there. I love the redness of this top. Whenever I wear this, it becomes the highlight of my get-up. I wear it with leggings or jeans. And I’m planning to wear it with black shorts next time.

Vintage Stores



I love ukay-ukay, but I easily get tired of looking for items that are good. That is why I just leave that task to my mother. She’s got a great eye for beautiful finds, and she knows very well my style. Among all my vintage clothes, my most favorite is that pink Chiffon top on the picture. I have a new Chiffon top from ukay-ukay, and it looks so good. Thanks Mom! I don’t have a picture of it yet. I’ll be posting it next time.
