As you may all know, I have a day job and this blog isn’t my bread and butter. You might have read my previous post about eight staples in the mod wannabe’s wardrobe, but I would be wearing that every single day in an ideal world. Let’s be realistic here. The tropical weather isn’t conducive to suits and fur-lined parkas.
However, this isn’t a reason for one to not dress properly. I’m pretty much leaning towards a more casual outfit for office wear with hints of formality—thanks to the absence of a dress code in my workplace. The standard everyday outfit for me would be a polo shirt, a pair of trousers or jeans, shoes, and outerwear to cap everything off. The last two items are of utmost importance as I take public transportation and work in an office – both air-conditioned.
So, here’s how I dress—outside of my OOTD posts—during a regular week.
Monday:
Parka: Surplus Shop
Sky blue polo shirt: Uniqlo
Jeans: CDN
Boots: Dr. Martens
Tuesday:
Parka: Surplus Shop
Green scarf: Davao public market
Gray polo shirt: Perry Ellis

Wednesday:

Friday:

Saturday / Sunday:

That’s all for now; until the next post.
I love your parka! Reminds me of Attack on Titan. If I would do a similar thing, I would probably just keep on noting “tiangge” or “ukay.” Lol
Thank you! 😁 To be honest, I waited for more than a decade just to get my hands on that piece of outerwear 😂
