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.

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.

Totally delayed in posting my Postura pics, I know. I have loads of photos for other updates, and some snapshots. Like I said in the previous Postura post, I'll be skipping some days of Postura in...

I'm starting to get a backlog on my Postura posts. I have been wearing something local everyday, and I have been taking photos of them...I just haven't been blogging about everything. So probably ...

"No one above 20 should be wearing pleated skirts anymore."
Well, here's to you, stupid random thought!...

I received an invitation to Aria Cucina's press launch, and I was curious at the dress code that was indicated. The little gathering called for wearing attire that had "colors of the sea". It wasn...

I was invited to a preview of Oxygen's newest collection last October 8, but I couldn't blog about it yet since the official launch should be at Philippine Fashion Week. Last night was the fashion s...

I've had to work with kids recently, so of course, I adjusted my wardrobe accordingly. I thought it was a good opportunity to wear some of the stuff I got from adidas last month. I was actually re...

As it happens, I'm always in Makati. Or Ayala, to be exact. If I'm not meeting people in Greenbelt over tea and pastries, I'd be in Ayala Triangle (still in between meetings). These are accumulate...

I've always wanted to do a series of posts doing outfit shots while sitting on chairs or benches that I take a fancy to. I've never been particularly comfortable doing outfit shots, to be honest; th...

I have to admit, Philippine Fashion Week is not really my favorite time of the year. Don't get me wrong, I'm very excited when local designers have new collections to showcase. I crave it, and I'm h...

Guess what came in the mail recently.
And you bet I'll be going around in these. I do miss my sneakers, more often than I'd like to admit. I'm wearing flats almost every day now, so I can do ...
