ADIDAS STAN SMITH COMPARISON: PADDED (US) VS. STITCHED (UK) TONGUE

Adidas Stan Smith kicks are definitely part of the wish list of any shoe enthusiast. For those #KicksSetters out there who are interested in getting their own pair, here is a side-by-side comparison of the stitched (UK) and padded (US) tongue versions of the shoe.

Admittedly, being a seller of these fashionable kicks, I wasn't aware that there are two versions of Adidas Stan Smith. Moreover, I wasn't also cognizant of the stark difference between these two versions until I saw them with my very own eyes. I did a quick research; and good thing I also found the answer.

Below are some pictures with both versions side-by-side so you can decide which suits your taste more. 

The Stan Smith logo on the back of the shoe with the padded tongue or US version (left) is of a darker, richer green and the material isn’t of the same quality as the shoe with the stitched tongue or UK version (leather).

The version with the stitched tongue (left) is more of an off-white colour, while the other is more of a bright white. If you prefer a more striking white, then you may go for the padded tongue version (US).

Hopefully, this post helps. And just so you know, people say that the UK version (stitched tongue) has a better quality and the thin tongue feature is a fashion statement of its own.

So, if you are ready to rock your own Stan Smith, go ahead and place your order now!

Beginning of a Dream-Come-True

I might be over-reacting, but it seems so surreal for now. For years, I have only been dreaming of enrolling for a short course in fashion design, and now it is about to happen (just like that). The opportunity came as a surprise, and I am so thankful for it. I just can't wait for my 1st day in class.

Regarding the course, I am planning to take modular classes in sewing and patternmaking at Fashion Institute of Design and Arts here in Davao City ('coz I am from Davao and I work here). If I were in Manila, I would most likely enroll at Fashion Institute of the Philippines because they offer cheaper rates and they also have noteworthy graduates.

Going back, right after my shift today I will go directly at FIDA to verify the information that I have regarding their modular classes. Right now all I know is that the two classes have 12 sessions each and it will be a flexible schedule that takes place every saturday (at least 5 hrs a week). If I go to class  every week, I should be done in a matter of 3 months, just perfect for December. I am looking forward to take orders in between...and I am positive that clients will be swarming in.

Now, all I want to do is inhale all POSITIVITY and EXHALE all negativity!

Things are falling right into their designated spots...Now is right time...It's the PERFECT timing! :-)

I am doing these to honor and actualize my dream...and I am offering everything that will be and will come for His Glory!!! :-)

How to Dress for a Job Interview

Couple of days before your job interview and instead of worrying about what to answer to your interviewer, you are more concerned about what to wear on that day. In a way, it can be positive since it can only indicate that you are really holistically prepared for your interview. On the other hand, it could also mean that you are paying more attention on what is superficial (though, your look will really matter). Hence, in order to speed up your decision-making process, here are some style suggestions (as well as clothing pieces that you can buy) that could be of help.

1. Printed Top, High-waisted Pants and a Blazer (can be worn as an overcoat)

This printed sleeveless can be an off choice for an interview, but with the addition of a blazer, it becomes
highly appropriate (not to mention fabulous). 

You can tuck the top in (as seen in the 2nd picture) or you can tuck it out. A pair of red or black pants is perfect for this or you can wear a pencil skirt (with or without stockings) if you desire. 

If you notice, I added a silver belt with stones to create an illusion of a peplum top (and to define the waist). And of course, don't forget to accessorize (yes, the belt is part of the accessories).

2. Sheer Asymmetrical Top and Jumpsuit or Romper

Again, it is all about mixing and matching different pieces of clothing that look great together. Just like this ensemble, the tangerine jumpsuit (seen in the 2nd picture) can raise eyebrows when worn in a job interview. However, if it is styled right, it can turn out to be uniquely chic. For example, you can add a belt and a blazer . For this look, I added the asymmetrical sheer top and added just the right amount of accessories to style it up. You can still wear a coat if you want to.

3.  The Classic Black Dress and a Coat

Who says you can't wear a dress during an interview? Well, if you have been told about that, it is time to abandon such idea. Get your black dress in your closet, wear a coat, add some accessories and you are ready to shine fabulously in your job interview.

4. Invest in a flexible and stylish long sleeves or tunics .

I fell in love with this top the moment I saw it. I know that I can dress it down with a pair of distressed denim shorts (check out our distressed, acid-washed and ombre shorts here: Fashion Power and Tropical Dreamz Clothing) and some Chucks or Dr. Martens boots . I can also dress it up to be be appropriate for a job interview. 

First, I mixed the classic black dress with the black top with lace detail (just don't wear the head piece during the interview). Second, I paired the lace top with a pair of black pants and a touch of silver with the addition of the belt.

Preparing what to wear for your job interview doesn't mean that you need to splurge on buying a new dress or a head-to-toe look. You can check what you have in your closet and just try to experiment. Hopefully, what I've presented here can give you an idea on how you can use what you already have and save your budget for your blow-out. 

Good luck and congratulations in advance! :-)

Architectural: CURVES

I have decided to make a larger and more polished version of my rough sketch few hours ago... 

Rough Sketching 101

In designing clothes, just like in writing an essay (or whatever), one also experiences the so-called designer's block...and just like in writing, the best way to fight it is to just make a scribble...or in writing, just write some random stuffs just to instigate the fire of your somewhat sleeping writing spirit...

 I applied the technique a couple of minutes ago...and here are my scribbles or my dirty sketch...

With these, I think I've found my design aesthetic. Or what do you think?
