The Shala Girl Lurves: Straw Trilby Hat



So as I mentioned, I'm not allowed to go out right? I'm on a "fun" ban right now and I've been living under a rock for a couple of weeks already. Envy runs through my veins whenever I see my friends share their beach photo albums on Facebook! I've been missing out on a lot (x9999) of parties, night-outs, and out-of-town trips! I srsly cannot wait for the 25th to come. After that, I'm hauling my humps to the outside world.

For almost a month I haven't shopped for any piece yet. I feel so bad! I think the first thing that I would do after the 25th is to shop, shop, shop! Before my house arrest got implemented, I was searching for a nice big floppy straw hat. I've been to 6 malls and I couldn't find one. When I got to the 7th mall, I saw a straw trilby hat that's kinda chic. It wasn't the big one that I was eyeing for, but for some reason I wanted to have that trilby. I was supposed to purchase it, but I thought I'll give it another week.

I never got the chance to buy it! I just reassured myself that I'll find a nice floppy straw hat soon, that's why I never got to buy the trilby hat... but my mom did!



She handed it to me the moment she got home earlier today. I felt so happy because I got a straw hat! (and I didn't spend a single peso heehee) I tried it on and I felt so chica that I wanted to play dress-up and abuse my camera. Don't worry, I didn't. ;)

My mom got it from the men's accessories area of a department store so it's uber cheap. Good find, I must say. I'm wearing this to make my outfit summer-y! I am so ready to enjoy the world in 2 weeks!

Look who's feelin' good with my trilby hat :)
His name is Taba- a styro-stuffed chick plushie who only has one eye.


Can't wait to be out and about!!

Gap Summer 2010

The everyday 36-C heat in Manila is definitely making people strip layers of clothing off their skin. The temperature is just making me sweat all the time, which by the way I really hate! Good thing Gap is saving us from this distress- Gap has just released a new line just in time for the hot hot Summer!


For this line, Gap focused more on bringing pastels and naturals to life. The floral prints look very airy and sweet, plus it gives a hint of vintage chic.


I la-la-la-love the denim trousers and maxi dresses! Absolutely shala! These two things are definitely on my must-have list this summer. Can't wait to have these pieces on my closet!


Gap (CCSI)
Available at SM Mall of Asia, Shangri-La Plaza Mall, TriNoMa Mall, Glorietta 4, Bonifacio High Street, Alabang Town Center, SM Megamall and Robinsons Place Manila.
