Sugar&Spice: The Shorts Story

So we met yet again, 11 of us strong, for Gracie’s Despidida. You would think by now we are already experts at this – after all, Despididas are slowly becoming a trend these days where I’m at *insert smiley face here*, but no goodbyes are ever easy. It was bittersweet knowing that we will not be seeing that sweet gentle smile with pingpong ball-like cheeks everyday but we are at the same time blessed that the Lord allowed her to journey with us for at least a year & is now bringing her to a Promised Land she has been praying for.

But with goodbyes are also hellos. And we are certainly delighted to welcome Peachy-Peach a.k.a Ishat to our team. There’s no doubt she will fall in love with Don Bosco in no time, that - I am excited about. (haaaaay ang korona ug kapa nako mabalhin najudddddddddddd hahaha).

Orange Mesh Shirt, Ukay Store/Beaded Shorts, Soria find/So Fab boots

And now for the outfit post - as requested by the Despidida Girl, we are to come in shorts ‘’). As you may have noticed, my legs aren’t the prettiest (I know you might be thinking gross haha ), I know, coz as a child I have been insecure about them coz I think they’re kind of mannish and as result, I rarely wore shorts during high school & even my college years (yes, even to the beach- I have photos of myself wearing leggings haha, now that is gross). I honestly can’t remember anymore when I gained the confidence to don shorts but that suddenly they’ve become a wardrobe staple and my ultimate summer uniform. So, even if all I could think about is the long mullet skirt I got on sale in SM, I wore my best shorts with this lovely orange (yeah!) mesh shirt that I got at an ukay store. I paired it with my So Fab booties that were, true to its’ brand, really fabulous. -sugar&spice-
