We have been experiencing occasional bouts of rain lately, so it hasn't been easy figuring out what to wear. One second, it's hot; the next, it's not...and then, we're stuck trying to brave our way through the rain (and let's not forget, the horrid Manila traffic). So, on the day that I went on a segway tour around Intramuros (read: Segway Through Intramuros), I decided to go for an outfit that would be manageable whether it rained or stayed sunny. Luckily, the rain didn't come until after the tour ended. Still, wearing pants allowed me to move around easily and maneuver the segway without breaking a sweat. Okay, maybe I did sweat a little because it was hot.


Instead of going for the classic denims, I opted to wear colored pants to make things interesting. I went for an earthy color palette, putting together white/cream, green, and brown pieces. I also accidentally matched my background by doing so! But hey, it adds to the photos, right?


I know some might think that colored pants only look good during summer, but if you feel like rocking them anyway then why not? The trick to wearing colored pants is finding the right shade, and finding the right pieces that will go with that shade so that the whole outfit looks pulled together.

Instead of pairing the pants with a plain shirt, like what I initially planned on doing, I went for something with a bit more twist. Literally. This criss-cross off-shoulder top does not get the amount of attention it deserves from me, so I thought it was about time I busted it out. I find clothes that show off the shoulders are sexy, so it was a nice contrast to the casual feel of the rest of the look.

What are your season staples as of late? Stay dry! :)
