Lolita
a couple of my colleagues have been calling me lolita for weeks now. i used to wonder why, but then i wore this outfit and it suddenly made perfect sense.

coat-dress – thrifted
red t-straps – fiorucci
later that night i anchored our newscast for the very first time. it was absolutely frightening.
i performed rather poorly and truthfully, the only positive thought i had was that my dress looked great on tv. haha.

and congratulations on anchoring for the first time! i'm pretty sure it wasn't as bad as you think. 🙂

I just can't get over how beautiful you are. And that dress is absolutely amazing – Lolita indeed, but not in a costumey way!

I just love that you are anchoring so stylishly. Reprezent! Haha! Seriously though, you look lady-like and polished.
That coat dress is just perfect for the weather. It has a little vintage look to it too.
I am wondering how co-workers react to your wardrobe? It's more creative than other anchors-in my opinion that is an awesome thing 🙂 Good thing you don't have a 'uniform' or anything like that!

Bestie you look so cute. Parang feeling ko mas matanda ako sayo pag tinitignan kita. Ang bata mo kasi tlaga tignan. The red shoes and bow made the cute dress livelier 🙂

I want to see that video of you delivering the news! you look chic and professional! I want to seeeee!! 😀
Too bad you took off the red bow pin. It'd look cute on TV ;);)
Please tell me you kept the red pumps on even though no one could see them on TV :p

That's so rad being on TV!!! I'm sure you did an awesome job, but you are right, the dress really did well too 🙂
I love the whole look you put together, just fabulous!
And I forgot to comment on your turban video a few days back, that was incredibly helpful and I can't wait to try it!
