A-FASHion Challenge with IgKnight

Yay! A collaboration of A-Fash and IgKnight!! A late blog post, but anyway, this is worth the wait! lol~ On the last wash day of last year, before the Christmas vacation started, IgKnight challenged us to wear their awesome shirt and make it fashionable even though it’s just a shirt. I really love this challenge because this proves that you can be fashionable even with just a simple shirt. You just have to be creative in styling. :)

IgKnight is a student-oriented entity established to primarily boost Ateneo de Naga's School Spirit and place it on the map of great and known academic institutions in the country, then eventually the world. IgKnight’s primary purpose is to provide apparel and merchandise to encourage students to be Pro-APE: Ateneo, Pinoy, Environment!

The company name IgKnight is a combination of the name of St. Ignatius of Loyola, a former knight himself and the founder of the Society of Jesus, and Knight which are vital symbols of the Ateneo de Naga University. IgKnight, being a homophone of the word Ignite, partially takes on its definition. And thus to “IgKnight” is to set the Knighthood, full of chivalry and valor, in every Atenean on fire! Awesome, right?

I’m so happy to model again for IgKnight, in spite of the fact that I also work for them in the marketing department. Lol~ I also once modeled for them last August for our org’s shirt.

oh-my-gosh-my-hair-here!

Here’s AJMA’s (Ateneo Junior Marketers Association) shirt! Which is going to be out soon, btw! So cute design and so meaningful! Monkey business! loljk~ 3 monkeys doing what marketers do, the opposite of the blind, deaf and mute. Observe, listen and talk! That’s what IgKnight does best! Creating great concepts and designs for shirts!! Awesome, just awesome!

Top: IgKnight shirt | Skirt: Thrifted | Wedges: OASAP

So yes, let’s go to the outfit details! The top was so great that I hesitated to crop it like what other A-Fash members did! I opted to wear what I do best in dressing up, girly-ing up! So I decided to pair it with my girliest tulle skirt, and pumped up with my OASAP shoes.

A closer look to the Sword-Shield shirt from IgKnight. Swear, they have the best quality of prints in shirts! Decided to wear my simple DIY collar necklace to add details, but not to take much attention on the top. I made sure that the IgKnight shirt will still be the detail on spotlight.

Yen’s Butingthings will come back soon with this collar necklaces! Watch out! ;)

Thrifted tulle skirt. Bracelet from Paradise Treats. Decided to glam up with a glitter belt too. Simple detail but can really talk too much.

Bow, wings, cupcake! Cuteness all over with these accessories from Fingertip Accessories!

And lastly, my ever favorite sky-high wedges from OASAP!

Since this is a fashion challenge, of course there will be a winner! IgKnight will be picking 4 finalists for this challenge and the photo with most likes and the blog that generated the most page views to IgKnight’s page will be the winner! So support your fave fash blogger, okay?! ;)

Keep updated with IgKnight and this challenge! Like IgKnight Inc here.

REVIEW: Purple Mansion Contact Lenses

Hi there everyone! Yes, pa-beauty blogger lang! Hee~ It's my first time to wear and make a review on contact lenses! Thank you so much Purple Mansion for sponsoring my contacts! *u*

Purple Mansion is an online store that sells authentic and safe to use contact lenses in a very affordable price. Maybe you'd wonder why they are able to sell in a very low price and would think that their products are not authentic. Well, price is not an issue of products' authenticity. That's just because they get their products directly from Korea and not from other Philippine resellers or distributors. They only sell authentic products! They're very friendly and accommodating, and they have a very fast delivery too! ;)

So yes, let's start with the packaging! Safely sealed with bubble wraps, with the customer's name written on it.

The package came with a free case, free 35mL solution and of course, the contact lenses. Yes, they provide free case and free solution! ;)

I was supposed to order the ICE Dolly Angel 305 because it has a thick black outer ring that would make your eyes cartoon-like, but apparently, it was out of stock. So instead, I ordered 15mm Sparkle Black. :)

I really had a hard time putting this contact lenses on at first because it's my first time to wear one. I've researched and watched a lot of tutorials on Youtube (Purple Mansion have videos too) just to know how to put it on. They made it look so easy! Haha. It was hard at first, but on the second and third time I wore this, I had no problems putting it anymore. It takes a lot of practice! *wink*

This is how the 15mm Sparkle Black looks like in close up.

This is how it looks like in daylight photography. You wouldn't really notice the pattern at all because my original eye color is dark brown.

But thank God it's 15mm, so the enlargement is pretty nice! Made my eyes look bigger and anime-ish. Perfect for cosplaying!

As for the comfort, I felt uncomfy the first time I wore it but after several minutes it felt like I'm not wearing any contacts at all! ;)

Overall, I really love this 15mm Sparkle Black provided by Purple Mansion. It looks pretty even with just-eyeliner-make up, you're ready to go! I think it's just perfect for my Asian eyes! *u*

I'm so looking forward for more beauty blogging this 2013! Hee~ Hope you like this review! And oh, if you'd decided to buy at Purple Mansion, tell them you heard their shop from me! *wink*
