on INTERIORS meets FASHION:


Summer is definitely here.. I have atleast 3 weeks vacation before summer classes starts. So here I am avoiding the sun and staying in my room browsing and letting the creative mind work...

I remember watching at lifestyle network where they create a room based on the fashion style of the client.. Well,how about I
create a fashion style using these interior desinger's BEDROOM as my inspiration.. (obviously i'm bored..ahahah..and tired of those fashion online games) so I challenged myself to work on that! (kinda excited on these project)
So. here's what I come up with!


ROOM 1: Oceanic


Interior designer says
"it is a blend of Morrocan and contemporary styles make this bedroom unique."
Fashionistanurse' style
"this room reminds me of the ocean..since it's summer I come up with a summer outfit.. a straw hat, a teal colored dress, chain linked necklace and a pair of embellished gladiator sandals..perfect for a time in the beach"





ROOM 2: Funky Asian



Interior designer says
" This restful bedroom features a cozy niche for the bed, creating a sheltered feeling."
Fashionistanurse' style
"This sanctuary is more of a clean and bold room.My style is composed of a graphic tee with the black and white patterned skirt, neutral mixture ballet flats and statement tote.I captured the playfulness of the colors in the room making a funky outfit"





ROOM 3: Classy and Sassy

Interior designer says
"This colorful, soft contemporary bedroom makes use of color for a cocoon effect.
Design Tip:
Use patterned fabric on the walls instead of the bed for a different focal point in your bedroom."
Fashionistanurse' style
"The room seems very romantic yet contemporary.The idea of mixing a soft pink ruffled top with the brown and yellow plaid shorts illuminated the windows connecting to the bed. I added those candy colored patent wedge for some bold statement since the room is really has this strong appeal .Completing the outfit with a long chained satin cocktail bag. Ain't it glamorous?"

on saying bye bye to 2007:

its' been a while since my last entry.. almost a month of non existence of me..
so here are some updates about yours truly..
ok I know I have been struggling on designing my apt.. 
well now it's making it's own "crib statement" already.. 

take a peep ->


the goal was to make it a zen-asian-colorful-lounge feel to it..
so to achieve this look here are the key piece for you to start on:
  • paper lanterns - they are very cheap and lightweight. It also comes in different colors and sizes.. I made a chandelier effect on it since I have a high ceiling apt. I added color on my high white painted walls.It is quite a challenge for me to look for it here in Manila so I decided to ask my sister in NY to buy it for me there since japanese stores are just around the corner in NY streets. I got them for $1 - $2. I suggest you check Market2  since I saw some of these hanging on their home department.

  • rugs - the first rug I got was the blue one which was on sale at play & display . It has defined my living area from the entry and kitchen area. and since I have no seating area.. it is where you can just lay down and enjoy the movie. The second was the larger printed rug I got at Urbanoutftters during a recent vacation. It's kinda heavy to bring home yet for only $20 it was worth it coz I haven't seen much printed rugs here in the country(nice pero yung mura lang ha!).. I have finally made use of the mezzanine area. Where a second bedroom/balcony seating has evolved. 

  • beddings (matching) - I have always dreamed of having a complete set of beddings (bed spread-bed sheets-pillow case - blanket- comforter). My mom got this for me it has a green and pink geometrical theme to it.I suggest that you take advantage of it while it's on sale.Better value for your money, right!
so you've seen my crib!
 'ope that inspired you on owning your space and 
putting "you" on every 4 corners of your room. 
see yah!
