Dear Peggy, This is 2013 and you are 28 this year. You may be reading this again in Year 2018 or 2022 or perhaps even later. No matter when it is, I hope you are still the same person. Many people say life begins at one’s early twenties, but I guess yours started only in your late twenties. Right now in 2013, you felt that you have finally grown up and embarking on the exhilarating journey of your life. In 2011, after one year working for some company, you quit your job to pursue blogging – something most people will not even regard as a profession. Frankly, it was quite a bold move for a fresh graduate. Blogging seemed fine at the beginning, you were making ends meet and had the financial capabilities to provide for your family.

But this one takes it up another level because it has gotten bigger with an additional hash brown in the burger!

I’m excited about the weekly Style Guides that are coming up on Jipaban’s website! So other than just shopping, they now also offer great advice on how to mix-and-match your items and tips on trends and fashion need-to-knows. I don’t know about you but I would always look through the Lookbook available on the shopping sites I frequent. So having the Style Guides on Jipaban is definitely going to benefit me! The Style Guide topic changes every week and it will provide fashion tips that are applicable to everyone. Jipaban’s Style Guides are contributions from their in-house and guests stylists! For this week, it would be “Solo Statements” – where you will get insights on how to make statement pieces work for you. Statement pieces in layman terms pretty much just means pieces that will immediately grab the attention of the people looking at you. It’s a must to at least have a few statement pieces because these are the ones that will immediately make your outfit look more interesting. And because Jipaban challenged me …
