Korea Trip Winter OOTD

This is some kind of a new type of content for the blog. I love posting ootd in my personal facebook account.  Posting it there was for no reason, just showing my love for dresses, clothes and dressing up.  So transferring some of it to a blog, I don't know how it will do but whatever, this blog is supposed to be something I want to post anyways.

To give you a brief overview, I'm a size L-XL usually or UK 10-12 depending the brand, US 38-40.  Anyways you get the picture, I don't have the body of the model đŸ‘….  Also I went on a trip on the last week of November.  So the weather in Korea is already winter, with daily temperature of 1- 8 degrees celsius.

Let's begin:

On my way from the Philippines to Seoul (so from tropical climate to winter climate)

In this picture, I'm wearing:
  • Mango long sleeves top - I got this from Ivan, (chosen by Tita Cecile of course) as an anniversary gift.  This is in M by the way, which I usually don't fit, but turned out it kind of fit anyways.
  • Divisoria Checkered Pants - This are one of my old pants that I have, in size L, I love travelling with this because of the zipper pockets.
  • Nike Rubber Shoes - I only have 2 rubber shoes, the other pair replica Nike of neon orange color, and this one, black Nike shoes.  I really prefer rubber shoes in travelling, because it's just comfortable and ok for walking long walks

Also in the hand-carry the thermal top, pants, gloves, scarf, jacket were stored, in case I was not able to tolerate the cold weather upon arrival in Korea.






Upon arrival at Korea and we reached our Airbnb, we changed into something to eat dinner.  

So here's my OOTD along the street of Myeongdong, when we ate street food.

  • Knitted Beanie Hat - I can't remember the brand - this really protects your head from the cold wind.
  • Pearl Dangling Earrings - Colorstone, I only brought with me 1 pair of earrings, so I chose this, because it can be used casually and semi-formally.
  • Pokemon Center Pikachu Jacket - This is my favorite jacket, I got from my recent trip from Japan.  If you go to Japan, just buy the Pokemon Center jacket, because it's warm, it's warm, and cozy.
  • Pants - same as I wore from the picture above
  • Rubber Shoes - same as above
  • Kipling Body Bag - I got this as a gift also and I like that I can put a lot of things in this bag.
  • Winter Gloves - I got this from instagram @summerskymnl, I love that you can use this in your touchscreen phone.  You can also see these exact same gloves in Myeongdong, I think actually the gloves were from Korea.
This is officially Day 1 - one full day in Seoul Korea.
Here I'm wearing thermal inside already, for both top and pants.
  • Scarf - this was a gift from my sister from Japan, it's made of faux fur which was perfect for the winter weather, keeping me warm and protecting from the cold wind.
  • Winter Coat - this was from Pull & Bear, I didn't buy this, haha this was borrowed from my mother.  I love the color of this, because you can match this with a lot of types of clothes and it looks really stylish don't you think? Not to mention really warm. There's actually faux fur also as an inside lining of the coat.
  • Pants - same as above
  • Gloves -this time in white, but it's the same from above, touch screen
  • Rubber shoes the same.

Inside the coat as you can see I'm wearing a knitted striped long sleeves top. I can't remember the brand sorry.

So in total I'm wearing, underwear inside, then thermal, then long sleeves top, then winter coat.  So a total of 4 layers of clothes.








Here, I'm looking haggard already from walking down Myeongdong.

  • Scarf - so cute hatchiko prints! also from Japan, I got as a pasalubong.
  • Knitted Long Sleeves top from Marks & Spencer - borrowed from mom (good thing we're almost the same size).
  • Light Blue Leggings - from Divisoria.  I love that this complements your boggy top.



Well this was now my ootd when I attended the Resident's review course.

  • Black Blazer - from Nikkos, this is actually my only black blazer hehe, but I love the cut of this and really fits my body type.
  • Blue dress from Wanko - I'm kind of into plain colors lately for dresses, I think I wore this before in another presentation in Australia.
  • Watch - Sandoz
  • Bracelets - Pandora
  • Bag - free from KUA
  • Brown Sandals - from Outland
  • White Belt - I think from Landmark? I can't remember






This was my OOTD on my last day in Korea.

  • Scarf from Japan - Hatchiko!
  • Striped Knitted Long Sleeves top - can't remember the brand
  • Leggings from Divisoria















For this one, I just want to include for no reason.  Hahaha, picturing my ootd in front of the glass door of the subway. Wala lang, trip trip ko lang.

Hope you're having a good day! Merry Christmas!!!
