There really is something about these leather wrist charms I like. But mainly its all just about the texture and their colors. The idea of their raw forms heated and cut into these shapes are one of the little wonders I consider in my book. A soon as I see more of these, the purchase would be limitless!

No idea where he got this but it was given by a friend who is also enthusiastic when it comes to film and digital cameras. Why? Well he actually works at Fuji Films! Big thanks for this awesome leather / metal selection! The details are stunning! Haven’t seen this piece anywhere else.

Purchased on sale at Oxygen, really can’t resist these tribal bands of brown and blue! There were bought off only at 100php each! Who knows these pieces might still be on the shelves! Like mine was already on the counter.

Literally electrifying, and one that reminds us all of Lady Gaga, this symbol has been on her costumes (not to mention on her face) in more pictures than anyone to date! As a gaga fan, this was bought at Oxygen with no second thoughts! Purchased right off the bat for a similar price of 100php! Sale galore to those who want to accessories!

So to those who wanna get into these raw works of (human fashion) wonders, I suggest you head on over to your local mall, local side street vendor and get your parts some minimal “bling”. Just right for the eyes would be nice!

Rockin’ Rain


Military bottoms and rockin’ the top half, are my two fav combinations when wearing it tough. Awesome army footwear from Forever 21 can change from strong black leather to a fold-away plaid boot. My green shorts were nice hand me downs from mother. It’s metal buttons have rusted around from the many washings it took that the actual rust tint gave detail to it. Rugged.

Black and some heavy shade of liner, punk rock is back when I get a little of that music fan girl out. But of course, it’s not all bones, thugs and…well you know. A nice detailed cotton coat breaks that. It is after all, the season for umbrellas, raincoats and boots, anything to get that water out! Stylish and functional hey!
