MARKISM: September 2014

Off The Grid

By Marky - 6:57 AM

You are probably thinking what is this all about, but definitely it's not what you think. It's not about the Off The Grid restaurant in Mckinley Hill, but as a 'background' on my new outfit of the day. Let me share now my new shirt I got from SM Youth. This shirt is very light-free in a jersey fabric, so no sweat inside. But I didn't buy the shirt because of that, I bought it because of its print. I really love it!

What I'm Wearing: Hat (Cotton On), Shirt (SM youth), Jeans (Mango), Kicks (Addidas), Bag (Oxygen), Watch (Casio)

You would've probably seen in my past blog post that I usually wear black chinos but this time I preferred to wear a pair of black jeans. I just like to mix things up and keep on trying out new styles that would suit myself. Very manly outfit on a Friday. Whew, I only have 2 remaining days in Factset. Waaaah!!

Encore

Encore x Rewards and Recognition

By Marky - 9:30 AM

Hey! Before I share our Rewards and Recognition and Encore anniversary photos, let me share first my outfit last Thursday. I used my new sweater I got from Surplus Shop, first item I got from that store. One of the basic for smart casuals is making use of knitwear. Knitwear is a great way to add some warmth and another dimension to your smart casual looks in bipolar weather. Patterned polo like what I have on here in a traditional hue is a safe option to pair with black sweater. Patterned polos bring personality into a look and can be balanced out with more classic pieces elsewhere if you're concerned about going over the top. Also, loafers work well with this look.

What I'm wearing: Sweater (Surplus Shop), Polo (Wharton), Eyeglasses (LCM), Pants (Uniqlo), Shoes (W.Brown), Watch (Casio), Samsung Case (Metro)

Bric's

By Marky - 7:33 AM

I just want to share with you my new bag from Bric's. Bric's is a 60 year old internationally acclaimed luggage brand with boutiques here in the Philippines like in SM Aura. As you noticed this Bric's X bag is similar with Longchamp Le pliage. Bric's bag is however, more serviceable and casual. I like it because it allows you to convert the hand bag to a longer strap. It is also very useful for travel and perfect match on every outfit.

Well for this outfit, well its simple, this is me being lazy on a Friday. A black top, pants, shoes, plus a hat totally made me look like a witchy witchy. haha. I think this a perfect match for my new bag.

What I'm wearing: hat (Market Market), sweater (Oxygen), pants (Mango), shoes (River Island), watch (Casio), tote bag (Bric's)

Addidas

Addidas ZX 750 x Celebrations

By Marky - 8:18 AM

Hey! Hey! New look for me again. I am very happy to share with you my new kicks from Addidas. It's my new Addidas ZX 750. These iconic shoes comes all the way back from 80's, when it was released and put to the shelves of shoe shops. These kicks became a fashion statement because of its distinct design. The shoe itself is really easy to combine with any type of outfit like what I have on here, colors are also on your side because this kicks is all in one color. It's either black with brighter shades, or with darker shades.

The design itself is very cool and classy, also easy to combine with any other outfit. I decided to pair it with my new jogger pants from SM youth and with Forever 21 Men sweater. This is something that can definitely be worn out to casual dinner or party fridays.
