One of the pieces I copped at last month's  Uniqlo Manila flagship store opening was this t-shirt with a Japanese scenery print with the famous Mt Fuji in view. I haven't given much thought about it other than it's a nice design. Apparently it's part of the Hokusai Blue Uniqlo UT collection , which is rooted in some interesting history so to speak. From the brand's website:

This was what I wore to the mall yesterday. Keeping it casual and relaxed, I simply went with shorts and a tee. It may be subtle--not big of a deal even--but rolling up the hems gave the shorts a rather fresh take. The tee is but one of many Uniqlo x Line pieces that I have. That store is such a trap that every time I find myself inside, I always end up leaving with something in hand. Besides, how can I resist the cute duo of Connie and Brown from Line ? I'm not sure if they're restocking, though, as I haven't seen Line merchandise for some time now. Anyway, look how cute they are in their onesies!

My Bibe and I hied off to Tagaytay last Saturday. Since we really didn't get to celebrate my birthday, we thought we'd spend the weekend there. We stayed at T House Tagaytay , where it was our first time ( I'll post a review soon ). But before checking in, we did the usual thing first: have a late lunch with  bulalo  (a beef, bone marrow and vegetable soup) somewhere. This time it was at Antonio's Grill. The rest of the day we spent just inside our room, leaving it momentarily only for a massage and then dinner. Although it rained a couple of times that day, the Tagaytay upland breeze still wasn't that cool. So I was perfectly okay in my outfit that day.

As everybody probably knows, tomorrow is Father's Day, yet another consumerism-fueled "occasion." Because My Bibe and I wanted to avoid the crowds, we celebrated a day earlier with her dad over lunch at Greenbelt 3. Then My Bibe and I spent the rest of our day at the movies. I wanted something relaxed so I went for shorts today. This one's got a seersucker feel to it (although you probably can't see much of the detail in the photo) and it came with a belt. Nice, right? I originally wanted a white shirt to go with it but what's left in the closet weren't the ones I had in mind. I think what I was looking for was in the laundry. So I settled for a pullover. Pullover (Arrow); shorts and belt (Uniqlo); loafers (Zara).
