A TOUCH OF BURGUNDY

Lola A finally toted her uber cute Chanel half moon bag in deep burgundy shade. It's absolutely the perfect match for her all-black androgynous ensembles like the one she wore at the PEFTA event last week. It's regal, timeless and classy. Adjectives that can be found on Lola A's style vocabulary.

LIGHTWEIGHT

Since we live in a tropical country, Lola A favors lightweight materials like this air-thin Calvin Klein cotton blouse and a pair of baggy and versatile linen vintage joggers. Both weigh almost practically nothing. And the perfect match for those warm summer evening dates with the family.

NEUTRALIZE

FYI, Lola A doesn't wear black all the time. Once in awhile you'll catch her rocking something in an unexpected shade. Here, Lola A whimsically layers her garments in various shades of neutrals to create a lovely tiered cake effect.

NOIR ET MARRON

Lola A goes noir et marron mixing a fabulous vintage ruffled boat neck blouse from Hubert de Givenchy and a brandless irregularly-shaped skirt with her chocolate brown tote from Celine. Both Lola A and JP have a penchant for collecting archive pieces from their favorite designers such as this beautiful vintage Givenchy blouse. The idea of having something that has a history absolutely excites them. And of course you cannot ignore its exceptional quality and timeless design. No wonder even some of the most prolific designers of our time rely on them for some much needed inspiration.

DRESS OVER PANTS

Yes we all know that this outfit post is long overdue since Lola A hasn't been blogging anything for the past two months. Now that JP is back home rest assured that this blog would be updated regularly. Stay connected to Lola A via Blogger or Lola A's Facebook Fan Page. 

Sometimes you need to think outside the box when you're playing dress-up. Lola A has a penchant for experimenting with whatever is inside her closet. For this particular ensemble, Lola A playfully paired her lovely dress from Uniqlo with a pair of Giordano Ladies wide-leg trousers. The end product was a sophisticated tiered-effect look that is neither contrived nor boring.
