Bloggers United 5

If you've been following my blog for months now, then you'd know that I always go to Bloggers United. For those who don't know, Bloggers United is an interactive bazaar where famous Filipino fashion bloggers get together to sell their pre-loved items. Plus some brand new ones. It's a venue for their readers to meet and greet their fave bloggers, raid their closets, and at the same time make a difference since the proceeds of this bazaar goes to a chosen charitable institution. 

Here is a quick photo diary of the fifth installment of Bloggers United which was held on June 1st at the SMX Convention Center. This time, the event was for the benefit of Diksyunaryo Atbp, an organization that aims to raise literacy in the Philippines. Check out some of my snapshots during the event.

the craaayyy but awesome crowd :)

I ended up buying a pair of neon green shorts, two cocktail rings, and a statement necklace, all for less than Php.500 or $11.89. What a steal, right? Plus I also got some freebies, like mugs and gift vouchers, from other booths. It was fun, fun, fun event and I can't wait for the next one. :D

Ooh Sparkly

Don't you just love finding fabulous items that are on sale? I know I do. There's something about finding awesome stuff on bazaars and bargain stores that makes me feel so elated. It's like finding lost treasure. Teehee. 

Take this top for example. This top caught my attention for two reasons: it's black and it sparkles. I saw it on a sale rack where all the items are priced Php.99 or $2.35. Right then and there, I knew I had to get it.
Top from Revolution Nine
Leggings from Folded and Hung
Flats from Wells
Bag, gift from my aunt

I paired my top with simple black leggings. I went for a monochromatic outfit because I was feeling lazy. Again. I really wasn't too keen on mixing and matching colors that day. And then I just added my purple bag to add a pop of something else other than black. This is what I wore to Bloggers United 5. I will blog about that later so you just have to keep posted, alright? :)
