More To Mica - Life & Fashion Theme Update

I used to shop endless from different stores online, until one day I got broke, lol. Well, sort of, but there was too much clothes, necklaces, rings, earrings that have piled up my room and some of it I hadn’t actually used. So lately, I sized down online shopping to one particular online store, Zalora. I might have mentioned in my previous posts about Zalora’s in-house brand, Something Borrowed and that I am a certified supporter of Something Borrowed, the products they offer fits my style so well.

I was given a discount coupon a few months ago, and so not to put it to waste, I ordered a few stuff from Zalora. I have to apologize though that the package had actually been sitting in my closet for a long while, I forgot to open it until today. Lol.

Anyway, the Mesh Panel Drawstring Shorts (P799), Bow Earring Multi-Pack ( and Stone Pendant Necklace are all from Something Borrowed.



I ordered this necklace and forgot what it looked like, the pendant is actually really nice. I'm happy I bought it.



Multi-pack earrings like these are treasures! It gives you options on what to wear for certain occasions.

That’s about it! >.< I’ve been working on things outside blogging that turned me into a busy girl. I hope I could post more stuff real soon. See you!

What I wore to Philippine Fashion Week Day 2.

I’ve been in a toast for three months. Finally, it’s almost time for the cool/rainy season. The month of June marks the beginning the cool/rainy days.. Even though I dislike rain because I don’t like the idea of getting my stuff or myself wet, I desperately want the weather to cool up! That means rain (and more trees please actually).. I’ll just have to tolerate the coming wet-weather.

Though us, filipinos may have to wait until the second or third week of June for rain (few more days to go).. I’ll have to keep enduring the heat.




Comfortable dressing is a must! I choose to wear this romper I bought from Zalora (also seen in my previous blog entry). I’ve been planning to wear this romper and my Fila sneakers. Good thing I was able to do so just before summer ends.
I know... There is no summer here in the Philippines, it’s just wet/dry season. But we’re all used to calling the months of March to April Summer. So Summmmeeer it is.



Saw this shoes at Fuego’s outlet store in Paseo de Santa Rosa. I didn’t buy it instantly but I just came back for it. Luckily, they haven’t stashed it away.



This is actually my first time to sport a romper... Most rompers don’t look flattering on my vertically challenged height. But this one made me want to buy a few more rompers. Since Philippines is a tropical country it is actually appropriate and okay to wear summer outfits. Rompers here I come...



I make weird poses. Hahaha.

I admit! I am one online shopping addict. Well it’s not entirely my fault. Some pieces from online stores are just so irresistible. Just like the ones at Zalora Philippines.

After browsing through Zalora, placing an order, and receiving  my package. I decided to make a review to share with you guys. Time to find out what‘s inside these Zalora boxes.



See these boxes?? Yes! I bought all of these from Zalora at once... Just kidding. The largest box was ordered last January, the box on the upper right was also from January but I ordered it days after, the smallest box has my recent order.

First let me share a short info about the Zalora Online Shopping site.

Zalora is an online fashion retailer that sells apparel, accessories, shoes and beauty products for women and men. Zalora headquartered in Singapore. In 2012, Zalora launched its various localized sites across Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam. In Australia and New Zealand, Zalora also operates as The Iconic.

So what’s inside those Zalora boxes? What’s in my Zalora haul?



When opening the Zalora package, usually there's a black envelope that comes together with the package. The envelope contains a customer’s copy of the invoice and a return slip. (If you’ve seen my Lazada post, the papers/forms from Zalora are quite similar with Lazada)

The box & black envelope from the photo above was from my latest order at Zalora. I'll be sharing the exact dates of when I ordered the item later on.
Here’s the exciting part of my Zalora review post...



Just this year, I fell in love with holograms. (I am obsessed!) I kept on searching online for different holographic pieces but they were quite expensive but one faithful day, while browsing Zalora’s shopping site... Lo and behold, I found a hologram shoe and even a bag. I just had to have it! Thank youu Zalora!

SmartMoney 20% off discount was still running and there was an ongoing promo with Zalora so I ordered a three more.. (I love sale & discounts)
April 24 Zalora Package:

• Holographic Mini Crossbody (bag on the lower left) - P250

Haha, I loved the holographic bag so I bought the black one as well because look at the price difference from January.. it was originally P499.00. I saw it on sale for P250! So why wouldn’t I buy? Hahaha

I was a little disappointed with my last order from Zalora though because it didn’t look as holographic as I expected it to be, another reason is with the holographic sneakers, they’re both dark colors but the sneakers have this holo look in them (you can see it in the photo) but the bag didn’t looked as holographic but nevertheless, it’s still beautiful.

By the way, the pieces I bought are all from Something Borrowed (one of Zalora’s in-house brand) which is now definitely my go-to brand when shopping (or online window shopping) at Zalora from now on.

This isn’t the first time I ordered from Zalora. The first item I bought was a lovely blue dress from EZRA (another Zalora brand).

Another thing I like about Zalora is that they ship really fast. You could get your order the next day. I had an experience where Zalora sent a message that my parcel is already on the way but I actually got my order on hand already. Haha.

That’s it for my Zalora haul...

Feel free to share your shopping experience at Zalora :) Would love to see your loot.
