The reason I got back into serious blogging over the last few months was due to a fellow blogger and uber-fashionista MARIYAH who arranged for a photoshoot one day at her home studio in January. It kind of gave me a refreshed interest in fashion, photography and the like, inspiring me to just get back into it!
The photoshoot was based around the idea of the "fashionable Pinay". Pinay is the colloquial term for Filipina, those gorgeous ladies from the far-eastern islands of the Philippines. I'm half Filipina (from my mothers side), and half Australian - so a bit halo-halo (mix-mix)! :-)
Mariyah gathered six of us at her studio, each with three 'typical' outfits we wear, to show the diversity and individual style of her fellow fashion-lovers. I really admire the international fashion-blogging world - the encouragement and shared inspiration - it's a great community to be involved in!
These are the three outfits I came up with.
Day outfit: weekends, movies, brunches etc.
Day outfit: weekends, movies, brunches etc.
Night outfit: parties, dinners etc.
My typical outfit: personal style, a 'trade mark' look.

I also recommend following Mariyah for trend updates and for the latest fashion news in Dubai!
