one thing that my sister and i overlooked while planning our california trip the other year is the coachella festival. we were so hyped up organizing our summer itinerary here and eventually chase summer all the way to the east coast that we booked our tickets on the first week of june. so yes, we missed it by a month. had i thought about coachella that time, i would have said no to that bohol trip (here and here) and that staycation where i soaked myself in chlorinated water. ack.

so with coachella in mind, i decided to wear this last weekend while hunting for beautiful porcelain pots for the garden. cropped top to beat the oppressive heat, palazzo pants because i haven't worn them since 2011 and a denim vest cos i could never dare to walk around the metro looking half-naked to the fashion illiterate. and yes, if i could do sun salutations while enjoying the world-famous music festival, i'd definitely wear this. knowing california's weather (hot in the morning, chilly at night) a vest, better yet a cardigan, and a pair of comfortable pants are, without a doubt, lifesavers.

its throwback thursdays over at instagram today and given that i have 1 more set of old outfit photos, wouldn't it be too fitting that i publish them now? this should be the last of all my backlog posts so expect newer ones in the coming days. new posts like that of Sunstyle, the biggest summer fashion show here in Cebu so be sure to swing by more often.

on to the outfit. remember what i said in one of my previous posts (see here) about billowy tops that hide my postpartum flabs and eventually buying them in three different colors? well this is one of them. i love the slimming effect it provides plus the fact that it comes in black color, gives me a more thinner silhouette. yes? its funny how not so long ago, i used to shy away from dark colors since it makes me look all the more thinner what with my 90lbs weight in a 5'4" frame. but now (thanks to my little bundle of joy) i embrace all clothing pieces in this very versatile shade. much to my sister's delight who loves everything black.
