About
The Reluctant Stylista is a fashion and lifestyle blog written by Alex Lapa--a once tomboyish girl who suddenly discovered the joys and perks of dressing up. Original illustrations by Paolo Lazatin.
For questions, comments, invites and other messages, please leave them here.
If you're looking for my styling work, you can browse blog entries tagged "work" and other related keywords. Drop me a line and let's see if our schedules will allow us to collaborate! It may take me some time to reply, though, as usually there's a lot of other things I juggle and I need to be doubly sure about my availability and resources before I commit.

Do you know anyone who would like to own a piece from the Pinoy Cartoonist Memorabilia? Because I’m giving away a shirt with Larry Alcala’s art from A Slice of Life to a reader of Reluctant Stylista! To qualify for the raffle, just do the following:
- Comment on this blog post. Leave your name and e-mail address. (the latter is especially important because I need it to contact you if you’ve won. I know the form fields ask you for your email address, but this isn’t actually revealed to me. So please leave it on the space for comments!)
- That’s it!
Valid comments (per individual) are considered +1 entry to the raffle. If you want to get more chances of winning, the following are optional:
- Follow this blog! Add Reluctant Stylista to your Twitter (+1), Google Connect (+1) or MyBlogLog (+1). Don’t forget to leave your usernames on the comments space so I can check.
- Tell me why you want to win this shirt! (+1)
I’ll be picking the winners through Random.org. Note that this contest is open to Philippine residents only, as I don’t think I can handle the fees for international shipping just yet. Deadline for entries will be on October 15!
Here’s what you win:
It’s actually a Men’s Tee in small, which is pretty unisex in my opinion. It can fit women size medium+. When I was deciding what to pick out, some bloggers voiced concerns that SOLO usually have smaller sizes so I thought it’d be safer to go with this one.
Shoulder 13″ (not counting the sleeves)
Waist 28″-32″
Shoulder to hip length 23.5″
Actual photos of the shirt:
SOLO is also currently having their model search you might be interested in joining. They have prizes up for grabs not just for the models but for the graphic artists and photographers as well, so it’s a very good opportunity.

I’m not joining (d-uh, I ran the same contest), but my winner was happy with hers. I got a male sized-L shirt and it fit her perfectly.
I asked her to pose (mukhang enjoy siya):
