My Windsurfing Ensemble

2012-02-06T10:39:00.002+08:00

Going out of town can be quite exciting for me as I get to wear some of my clothes that I don't get to wear every day. One of these pieces is my crocheted haltered top which I paired with a knitted cardigan sweater since it was a bit chilly that morning. I also wore my layered skirt and my super comfy Cushe slippers. When we reached Surf Kamp, I changed into my windsurfing

My Nike Air Max 1

2012-01-30T20:02:00.000+08:00

I bought myself a pair of Nike Air Max 1 in black/perfect pink. My hubby wanted me to get a new pair of sneakers coz maybe he feels guilty that he has tons of 'em while this is only my fourth pair. Teehee. I still have my Nike Shox, the very first blogger gift I got in 2006 and it's still looking pretty sturdy; I still have my Ryka sneakers which is already looking a bit dilapidated

Dancing the Night Away in My Korean Furry Pumps

2012-01-29T00:09:00.000+08:00

Last weekend, I had the chance to wear my Korean furry pumps again (my 2nd time since I last bought it in one of Eastwood's Holiday Bazaars in 2010) when my hubby and I went on a dinner date in Harbour Square then headed to Republiq in Resorts World Manila to celebrate my girl friend's birthday (Happy birthday, Danes!). I paired them with a furry vest as accent to my backless bell

Me and My Twinky Boots

2012-01-23T18:54:00.000+08:00

It was sometime last week that I accompanied my sister to Alabang Town Center to look for a pair of Crocs slippers that she's been eyeing for sometime now. She found one for her girlfriend and bought a pair. On our way out of the big mall, we passed by a window display of fashionable boots. I had no plans of buying but I thought there's no harm in trying out some and see if they fit.

I Love the Nightlife...

2012-01-20T15:59:00.000+08:00

I remember those years when I was out almost every night, drinking, dancing and partying the hours away even on a working day. Then the early 30's hit me and I slowly turned into a hermit. Teehee. ^_^ I still went out, but mostly to travel. I used to attend blog events when I can before and rarely went out with my friends. In large part, the kind of work I chose to do is to be blamed, which took

My Teeny Bopper Getup

2012-01-17T17:43:00.001+08:00

First and foremost, I have no illusions of being super young. But sometimes, it's nice to be able to pull off an attire and have younger people believe that I'm the same age as them. Hihihi! Okay, seriously, that wasn't my plan at all. I just wanted to stop wearing my usual A-line and tube dresses that day coz I don't like it when people ask me if I'm pregnant just because those dresses

Nivea Extra Whitening Cell Repair and Protect Body Milk- a Review

2012-01-11T17:52:00.000+08:00

I'll be posting a series of reviews for Nivea's new whitening and beauty products. I didn't ask for these products. These products were sent to me by Nivea end of November last year. I wanted to use them for a considerable amount of time first before I share with you how my experience was, whether positive or negative.

British-Norwegian group A1 is expected to churn out their familiar tunes at their Manila concert on the evening of February 25, 2012.

New Year Getup

2012-01-02T17:13:00.000+08:00

Happy New Year, everyone! Our family usual wears something red during New Year's Eve. It's a way to ward off evil spirits and bring lots of good luck for the coming new year. So, on this post, I just wanna share my usual New Year getup --- a polka dotted red and white dress, which I matched with red rubber flats, red beaded necklace, red and white scarf, a red bowler hat and red lipstick!

Spring / Summer 2012 Fashion Trends

2011-12-31T00:01:00.000+08:00

There's a tennis ball going back and forth in my head, thinking of whether I should revamp my wardrobe or stay frugal by mixing, matching, redesigning my clothes. Since I intend to earn and save more this coming new year so I can devote more funds to my crafts and soaps, I think I'll do the latter. On special occasions when I feel like I've accomplished a lot of my goals, then perhaps I can

Lady Gaga's Awesome Europride Speech in Rome

2011-12-17T02:14:00.003+08:00

Lady Gaga... she's not just a music and fashion icon, but definitely one good leader too. (^_^) Watch this video of her famous speech in Rome where thousands of people cheered her up. I had goosebumps all over as I was watching it. Her message was electrifying and her persona so magnetic.

2011-12-09T17:59:00.004+08:00

Isn't it nice to chance upon stuff that you've always wanted to buy and you happen to see them on sale? That was what happened to me and my hubby while out on a date last weekend.We chanced upon some cool finds at Festival Super Mall's Mini Trade Hall. They were selling imported stuff, stuff which we always wanted, but at bargain prices!The North Face hooded jacket is for Peter. We bought it for

2 Broke Girls

2011-12-01T13:27:00.004+08:00

I'm currently addicted to 2 Broke Girls. It's created by Michael Patrick King, the same genius who created HBO's Sex and the City. This comedy sitcom, however, is totally different from SATC. I was just supposed to watch one episode but I guess I'm already hooked! It's about two girls who are totally broke. One is Max (played by Kat Dennings who I love, love, love!). She grew up poor, yet street

My Black and White Rock Getup Got Rained On

2011-11-18T16:25:00.007+08:00

I was so happy of my black and white attire last weekend. Unfortunately, it got rained on since I was feeling too proud to carry an umbrella during the Ako ang Simula Rock Concert held inside UST Open Grounds. Nevertheless, I didn't let the wet weather dampen my spirits.Two things really made me proud to be donning a black and white attire like that: I was finally small enough to fit in it! The

Is it time to take out my faux fur coats?

2011-11-17T04:52:00.006+08:00

It's probably the Christmas season because the weather is definitely getting colder here at the south. Or maybe, it's just the weird monsoon weather. Whatever the case may be, I'm thinking of taking out my faux fur coats. They've been stored in my closet long enough that I think they need to see the light of day once again. Besides, my office can get pretty cold in the evening when I go work so

J.K Rowling Interviews Daniel Radcliffe

2011-11-11T03:25:00.002+08:00

OMG! I am so wanting to buy this special edition of the “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2″ Blu-ray and DVD, which is on sale this Friday in the U.S.! You know why? Because it contains the never-before-seen interview of the man who grew up playing Harry Potter, Daniel Radcliffe! And the interview was done by none other than the author herself, billionaire J.K. Rowling! OMG! I'm

Post Halloween Costume Review

2011-11-04T23:49:00.005+08:00

The Halloween Party we had last weekend truly made my most favorite holiday more fun as compared to last year when I celebrated it with just my hubby and our tenant. I was afraid that I may not be able to fit into my chosen costume but by doing some fat burning workout and trying some fat burning foods, I'm thankful that I was able to fit into my witch attire. I'm also thankful to our friends

Halloween Costume Dilemma

2011-10-27T07:04:00.007+08:00

I may have rushed into buying my witch costume last weekend for fear of not having enough time to come up with something cute and cooky from my closet. When I tried it on again at home, I wasn't that happy with it... It went pretty well with my silver strappies though, which I haven't worn yet since I bought it from People are People on my birthday last February. Also, though it hugged my figure

My Halloween Costumes All These Years

2011-10-25T00:57:00.011+08:00

It was already the middle of October when I realized that Halloween is looming and yet I still haven't done any of my usual preparations. I remember those years when as early as August or September, if I wasn't playing Christmas songs and scary tunes in the background all day long, I was already crafting some creepy decors for the Halloween as well as making my homemade Belen for the Yuletide

Physician's Formula Mineral Wear at Tameraonline (friends are saying I look younger than my age)

2011-10-18T16:37:00.010+08:00

This photo of mine below, taken by Peter last weekend, at 5:30 am, after an all-night party with Brownman Revival, has been getting positive reviews among our Facebook friends. I was tired, sleepless, hungry and my makeup was melting. Yet, I still seemed to look fresh. I was starting to believe that I may have stopped aging indeed. That night alone, our friends from the band (both guys and girls)

It's a known fact that in these modern times, most men and women work on very tight and busy schedules that they need to be able to dress themselves from home, to work, to play (which could mean dressing for a date, dinner, or

Nivea Visage Sparkling White - Trying Out Their New Products

2011-09-25T15:48:00.011+08:00

I got this Nivea Visage package from the mail last Friday (and I'm giving away an extra pack!). They're introducing the 1st Whitening + Acne + Oil Control in one product that has 5 actions for 0 impurities! This will be the perfect whitening product for those with oily skin (like me!) and wants more benefits in their whitening products (I do!). I've been using the White Sparkling White Acne Oil

Michael Jackson 2001 Invincible Album – Make it VISIBLE

2011-09-22T16:36:00.003+08:00

I'm a Michael Jackson fan. I mourned for him for two years to the point that I forgot all about my husband's birthday which falls on the same day Michael died. That was quite a wake up call. Since then, I try not to dwell on it anymore. Michael Jackson is now in a better place and more often than not, I celebrate his life rather than mourn for his devastating death.Anyway, I got hold of this

My Own Version of Boho Chic Fashion

2011-08-30T11:48:00.007+08:00

I must be reading a lot of stuff about Boho Chic fashion last week that I donned something that's Boho Chic inspired. It was a stormy weekend and the temperature was quite cold. So I wore my black Boho maxi printed skirt, blue solid round neck shirt under a black tank top which I cut to make it shorter than the shirt. This black tank top is actually one of my most recent items in the Sexy

Boho Chic Style of Vanessa Hudgens

2011-08-23T13:51:00.012+08:00

Of all the celebrities that I watch and follow, it's Vanessa Hudgens' sense of style that I can relate to most. Just like me, I noticed that she's also into Boho chic look with a bit of modern flair. The modern Bohemian look usually entails pieces such as tunics, craftans, ankle-length embroidered dresses, tiered peasant skirts, weathered jeans plus ethnic-inspired accessories, leather belts,

My Paris Hilton Bag (Paris Hilton is here!)

2011-08-18T14:05:00.006+08:00

On August 15, when I was in Cagayan de Oro with my family, I got a text from the Paris Hilton shop saying that if I buy new arrivals of bags at Paris Hilton Robinson's Ermita Manila branch, I don't only get 15% discount, but I will also get an entry pass to Meet and Greet Paris Hilton on August 18 (that's today!) at 4pm in Mega Atrium, SM Megamall. The promo will end today. Unfortunately, I

Daniel Radcliffe and His Mystery Girlfriend

2011-08-17T14:31:00.001+08:00

I looove Daniel Radcliffe!!! But not in the way I love Zac Efron, or Joe and Nick Jonas or Chris Hemworth... I love him primarily because I love Harry Potter and everything about it. Through the years, as I witnessed him grow up and mature, I just find him even smarter and more interesting! He always says a piece of his mind and he's not afraid to express his thoughts and feelings. Well, all

Hollywood Celebrities in Casual Attire

2011-08-12T00:01:00.001+08:00

Here are some more of my favorite Hollywood celebrities caught donning casual clothes. I know they're all people, like you and me but they're far from regular. So it's just nice when we get to catch a glimpse of them wearing something casual. Jennifer Lopez - People Magazine's 2011 Most Beautiful is returning to American Idol next season. Even with just simple makeup and a casual dress, this

2011 Teen Choice Awards Fashion Favorites

2011-08-10T16:57:00.001+08:00

This is a late post of my favorite celebs during the 2011 Teen Choice Awards held last Sunday (August 7) at the Gibson Amphitheatre in Universal City, California. I've just been busy with other things but I'd still like to put these beautiful and fabulous celebrity photos here. Better late than never, right? I've always liked Demi Lovato. She's been off the spotlight for a year to seek

Chris Hemsworth @ Teen Choice Awards 2011

2011-08-08T17:15:00.005+08:00

I've been looking at some photos of celebrities who went to the 2011 Teen Choice Awards. I was thinking of researching for some fabulous outfits that I can feature here on my blog. But lo and behold, the moment I saw my future-husband-in-a-parallel-dimension Chris Hemsworth, my heart skipped a beat and I just want to plaster his handsome photos here on my blog. Oh Chris Hemsworth, why are you

Christian Dior Addict Eau De Parfum Spray

2011-08-08T09:53:00.007+08:00

I am usually very thrifty when it comes to using my branded perfumes even if I never buy them. They're always given to me by relatives like Popsy, my aunt, and just recently, my cousin. So even after a few years, I still have a few ml left of my Bulgari and Channel No. 5, for instance. I also still have some left of my fruity bottles of perfume like my Hugo Boss, Victoria's Secret Chiffon and

I Hate Henry Cavill for Superman

2011-08-06T07:48:00.011+08:00

I am an extreme kind of person. For me, it's usually black or white, hot or cold. No in between. So it would seem to a casual observer that I am usually apathetic about A LOT of THINGS in this world which further adds to my belief that I am a weird person because how come I view the world so differently from most people and how come I don't care about a lot of things that other people care about

Claudine Barretto - Raymart Split: True?

2011-08-04T06:46:00.001+08:00

Please know that celebrities seldom catch my attention unless they're from Hollywood or wearing something I consider fabulous. So, this is the first time that I am going to write about a Filipino celebrity and I'm glad it's about Claudine Barretto. Even before I liked Jolina Magdangal and went crazy over ANG TV during my high school days in Cagayan de Oro, I've always liked Claudine Barretto.

Fashion in the Medical World

2011-08-03T17:26:00.004+08:00

The past few days that I have been "noisy" in my head, I thought about career opportunities in the past that I had let go of. Others I tried (like teaching for instance, when I became a preschool teacher after I graduated), while others I have simply said no to after much deliberation. One of the latter is being a doctor. Few people know this. I actually took the NMAT when I was in college

My New err... Old Givenchy Bag

2011-08-02T03:47:00.006+08:00

Okay here's the story. I've been telling you about my cousin recently, right? I told you how she knows about fashion and how she likes to buy Ferragamo, Dior, and other branded stuff, right? She worked abroad and lived this fabulous life where she bought anything that she fancied. She showed me some of her stuff and I, in turn, fancied her Givenchy bag. She said it's an original and it cost about

Terno No-Nos

2011-07-28T01:59:00.004+08:00

What I meant by the title is that I really should stop wearing identical or matching colors in my getup. I've been wanting to experiment with my casual attires but when time is of the essence, I just pick up whatever is on top of my closet (which usually happens to be a brand new blouse from my Sexy Nomad Apparel) and automatically find a color-matching pair of shoes, or bag, or shirt. It's

Not a Reggae Attire

2011-07-22T22:37:00.007+08:00

I don't think I ever wore a proper reggae attire whenever I went to see Brownman Revival play and I'm not about to start now. Going out of the house is a huge deal for me (being cooped up at home most of the time if I'm not traveling) so I make the most of it by dressing the way I like or depending on my mood. Since I bought these new clothes from my supplier, I've been dying to wear this

Sexy Nomad Apparel

2011-07-21T00:55:00.010+08:00

I've been quite busy with my online shop lately. I've been waiting since January to get excess stocks from my clothes supplier. Unfortunately, all of their stocks are always sold out, or their sewers just managed to sew the exact number of items for their buyers. I have no physical store and investing a ton of money and time in apparel business is not yet on my cards so I just usually wait until

Cushe Footwear for Me and Peter

2011-07-11T18:14:00.006+08:00

Peter is now a freelance entrepreneur just like me. One of the perks of his gigs is that he gets to have some free stuff. The first of which were two pairs of footwear from a trusted quality brand, Cushe.He was to get a pair of sneakers and a pair of sandals. Truth be told, when Peter shops, he does so far longer than I do. He scrutinizes every little detail and he makes sure that whatever he's

Cocktail Dress + Sparkly Heels

2011-06-29T15:53:00.006+08:00

It's been four long months since I bought this pair of sparkly strappy heels from People are People. I'm so glad I got to wear them at last on Monday evening during Marriott Manila's launch of Thai Kingdom Come. I felt so tall and elegant, plus it makes my ugly feet look pretty. LOL! Moreover, my sparkly heels really went pretty well with my simple black cocktail dress from YRYS. Would you

Sexy Makeup and Style by Net Bautista

2011-06-24T15:34:00.004+08:00

Here are the rest of the photos taken by my husband, Peter Juan, when Net Bautista did my hair and makeup one Saturday afternoon. After the simple and casual look she made, Net wanted to create a sexy / vixen look for me so she had some of my barely used Victoria's Secret lingerie taken out of the closet. She chose two corset pieces I particularly like coz they're also my favorite among all my

Casual Ensemble by Net Bautista

2011-06-17T04:15:00.010+08:00

I had my hair, makeup, and getup done by freelance makeup artist Net Bautista last weekend. She's a very good friend of mine and it was only at the start of this year that I discovered how passionate she really is about makeup. She's been doing freelance makeup gigs for half a year now and I was just so lucky to finally book an appointment with her. She did several looks on my face which you can

Lace Layered Dress + Puff Sleeve Blazer + Demi Boots

2011-06-12T20:19:00.003+08:00

When Peter and I celebrated our 9th wedding anniversary at Alba, it was a bit cold and drizzling outside. I thought of wearing something warm but comfy, cute and ladylike all at the same time. It must be my mood that day. I was feeling so much and I just couldn't decide what kind of look I want. So I just threw everything on my bed and picked out the ones I liked. I selected my brown lace

Hot Pink Dress & Chain Boots

2011-06-07T10:29:00.010+08:00

Remember those pairs of shoes I bought from People are People back in February? Well, I had the chance to wear one of them for the first time (which reminds me, I should go out some more so I can baptize my other pairs of shoes). It's the black ankle chain boots I have which I wore with my v-neck hot pink dress with layered pockets and asymmetrical hemline.The dress can actually be worn without

My Nivea Pure & Natural Review

2011-06-02T18:25:00.000+08:00

Since I got my Nivea package weeks ago, I’ve been using them and trying them on. You’ve already seen my review about Nivea Sun products. I loved them! You’ve already read my review on Nivea Visage Sparkling White. My dark skin is getting lighter every passing day that I am not at the beach or under the sun. And now, I want to share with you what I think about Nivea Pure & Natural. Okay, so

Nivea Visage Sparkling White UV Blocker @ Magalawa Island

2011-05-31T18:27:00.000+08:00

On those two days that my girlfriends, my husband, and I spent our time under the extreme heat of the sun at Magalawa Island in Zambales, I brought and shared with them my new skin product discovery— Nivea Visage Sparkling White UV Blocker products. Naturally, with the frequency of our beach and other summer activities, we don’t ever think that we can attain the sparkling white color that

Magalawa Island Beach Wear

2011-05-27T23:38:00.008+08:00

When we went to Magalawa island last weekend, I brought two pairs if bikinis with me. The rest of my beach apparel were just comfortable and skin-bearing outfits like this lingerie on the photo above which I paired with pekpek shorts (super skimpy shorts) for maximum exposure. LOL. The first pair which I wore last Saturday was my turquoise blue bikini, an old pair which I haven't worn in a very

Colorful Bohemian Look

2011-05-24T21:42:00.001+08:00

I know it's going to be cold and windy that weekend we went to Caliraya but for some reason, I wanted to wear my colorful / psychedelic summer skirt with my yellow green bikini top to be covered with another yellow green apparel, a triangle shawl. I think it looked pretty cozy and nice. And because the shawl is made of warm material, despite its design, I felt pretty warm late that afternoon and

Bringing NIVEA SUN to My Windsurfing @ Lake Caliraya

2011-05-20T18:29:00.000+08:00

I told you before on My Rated K interview post that I’d be using NIVEA SUN products when I go windsurfing. And I did. I finally windsurfed again last weekend after more than a year (the last time was also in Lake Caliraya Surf Kamp in 2010) and thanks to NIVEA SUN Moisturizing lotion with SPF 50 PA++ I didn’t get burnt at all. After three hours of continuous exposure under the extreme heat

Tube Top Jump Shorts + Dupe Slippers

2011-05-20T14:01:00.010+08:00

I bought a tube jump shorts from one of my Sexy Nomad Apparel collection last January and it's only last Saturday that I got to wear it when my husband and I went windsurfing at Surf Kamp in Lake Caliraya. The fabric is jersey and cotton so it's very comfortable. When I take off my bikini top, I'd be able to show off some nice tan lines. Unfortunately, the Nivea Sun SPF lotion I have been using

Purple is one of my most favorite colors, being an Aquarian and all despite the fact that it just sometimes look too dark for my skin tone but I do wear the color whenever I can. So one afternoon, that's what I did when my hubby and I went for a movie date at Festival Mall. Oh, this was my attire when we watched THOR! Anyway, the purple flowery summer dress used to be in my Sexy Nomad Apparel

Boracay Bikinis

2011-05-11T13:09:00.011+08:00

I refuse to think that summer is over. I know that tropical storm Bebang just ravaged parts of Luzon but I am hoping against hope that the sun will shine again. If it does rain, I hope it won't be another tropical depression coz it can get... depressing, you know. Maybe that's why it's called 'depression'... hmm. Teehee.Anyhoo, to ward off any heavy rainfall this time of the month, I am

I Want Prada Shoes

2011-05-09T14:28:00.016+08:00

I've been enjoying wearing my new pairs of shoes as of late. I like feeling pretty and tall in them, not to mention, comfortable too when I wear pumps and high heels. But being a girl, I can't help but check out some other shoes as well. One of my dreams is to be able to buy a pair of prada shoes. Oh my God! Just thinking about it already makes my heart beat so fast!When we think of Prada, we

Boracay Island Beach Attires

2011-04-12T19:33:00.008+08:00

I'm staying here in Boracay for 33 days. I'm already on my 18th day and I have yet to share with you photos of myself wearing my Boracay beach getup. Suffice it to say that Peter was only with me during the first five days of my island vacation and afterward, I was left on my own devices. Thus, there was no one to take photos of my island attires and the subsequent photos I did take were

Fashionable Hospital Scrubs

2011-04-11T22:59:00.004+08:00

I love watching medical drama on TV. And I'm just amazed at how fashionable the nurses , dental assistants and all other medical assistants have been these days, whether male of female, especially while doing their work in the hospital or clinic. Interesting colors and a more exciting sense of fashion are not only present in casual and formal wear but are now also given a bit of more attention

Boracay Hats

2011-04-04T11:26:00.009+08:00

It's been ten days since I got here in Boracay and I already managed to have five hats! For some reason, seeing beach hats makes me filled with joy. In fact, in almost every place I visit, I always end up buying hats. I'm thinking, even if I won't wear them, I can use them to decorate our home. Weee! I originally brought these two hats above from Subic. Then I fell in love with three more hats

Swimwear Galore: Bikini, Tank, Board Shorts

2011-03-25T00:00:00.011+08:00

My girlfriends and I were supposed to go to Magalawa island two weekends ago. I remember panic buying tons of swimwear since I only had three hours to spare to make sure I was prepared for that particular trip. Aside from that, it was also the only time I can spend shopping for new bikinis and other swimwear for my upcoming Boracay stay... no, not really a vacation, but more of a longer stay.

Trying to Break Away From My Usual Fashion Mode

2011-03-21T22:18:00.009+08:00

I'll be going to Boracay soon to experience the island life for six weeks so I've been trying as best I can to wear those new heels I bought from People are People a couple of weeks back, even if it's just going on a simple movie date with my hubby.If you've noticed, I am the typical "terno" kind of gal. I like wearing matching bags and shoes, matching top and bottom, matching everything,

My Baguio Getup

2011-03-12T00:07:00.003+08:00

It is only when I go up to Baguio, or when the weather gets cold here in Manila (which is rare), that I get to wear my coats, faux fur jackets, fluffy neck warmers and leather boots. This is one of those occasions. It was quite cold and rainy when I went up to Baguio over the weekend and I was happy to have come prepared. I also wanted to wear my shiny cowboy hat since they seem to go well with

I Wore My Peep Toe Demi Boots

2011-03-11T01:00:00.008+08:00

My pair of peep toe demi boots is one of those pairs I bought from People are People. I wore them that Day I went on a movie date with Peter. I wasn't sure how long my feet would last in those super high heels so I figured, why not just wear them on a simple movie date? That way, I won't be walking as much and Peter wouldn't have to carry me in case my feet start feeling like they're killing me.

New Bags from H & M and Paris Hilton

2011-03-02T01:32:00.006+08:00

Nope, I did not buy them. These bags were given to me as gifts. I have a very generous father-in-law with very generous friends that every time he would go home, his friends from the U.S. would also send a few stuff our way and I'm just very thankful for all these blessings.The two H&M bags are just so useful and adorable!This striped blue and white shoulder bag can fit so many things! I actually

Manels Peep Toe 4-inch Heels

2011-02-28T23:57:00.001+08:00

My original plan was to go back to Resorts World and try on that red pair of heels I saw at Michael Antonio's. Unfortunately, I didn't have the time to go back there anymore so when I saw another pair of red heels, this time at Manels here at Festival Mall, I immediately tried them on to see if they'll fit me well. As it turned out, they did!I'll be checking out more of Manels' stocks soon as

People are People: My 6 New Pairs of Shoes

2011-02-27T23:18:00.002+08:00

People are People is one of those stores I frequent when I want to buy shoes that really last. I have an old pair of beaded sandals from 2008 which I still use until now, plus my gladiator boots which I had since 2009 which I also still use until now. I bought these pairs of shoes from People are People and though the leather is man-made, they have proven to be very sturdy as compared to the 5

Charles and Keith 4-inch Strappy Heels

2011-02-25T22:47:00.005+08:00

Remember when I told you that I bought 8 pairs of shoes for my birthday? Last year, I did the same thing but it I think it only cost me 20% or less of what I spent for my shoes this month. I'm normally not like this. But since I only buy shoes once a year now, I guess it's okay to splurge. Plus, I've been working so hard so I believe I deserved a treat, don't you think? ^_^Anyway, let me share

I Only Had One Pair of Shoes Last Valentine's Weekend

2011-02-22T16:31:00.010+08:00

I really wasn't expecting to have a fabulous Valentine's day, more so a grand Valentine's weekend. We were supposed to just stay in Mandarin Oriental Hotel for one night. But then Peter and Pops wanted to stay another night. I didn't bring any extra clothing for the occasion but I figured, my gladiator boots can go with anything.At Mandarin Oriental Hotel from Feb. 12-14 at Greenbelt on Feb.

Clinique Happy

2011-02-10T19:40:00.005+08:00

One of Popsy's gifts....I love the scent of my new perfume! I haven't tried the lip gloss yet since I'm into wearing matte lipstick at the moment but I know I'll love it. As for the Clinique bath cream, I'm thinking of bringing it with me when I go to Cebu to assist in training come near end of February. Thanks for my Clinique goodies, Pops! You sure made this one girl here happy. Oh, and the key

My Semi-Winter Getup

2011-02-08T19:31:00.007+08:00

.... LOL! I know, I know. It doesn't snow here in the Philippines but I was really feeling cold last weekend (and too tired to come up with anything stylish to wear) that I decided to don an attire that will help keep me warm. Hence, my long sleeved knitted blouse, topped with faux fur vest, black leggings, mini skirt and my favorite suede boots. Anyway, I was just going to have dinner at Fez and

Smurfs Backpack from Clipper

2011-01-27T15:24:00.002+08:00

I didn't realize that I wasn't able to blog about one of the few things I bought last New Year --- a Smurfs backpack from Clipper!Peter and I found ourselves at Festival Mall to buy materials for my soap making adventure. After getting everything we needed, we were just supposed to go to Goldilocks to have a hearty lunch when we passed by Clipper and Peter wanted to see some backpacks. He

Ocean’s Surf Seafood Buffet at Marriott Cafe

2011-01-17T01:11:00.007+08:00

Last Friday, Peter and I went to Marriott Cafe to have a taste of the delectable dishes being offered at their Ocean's Surf Menu. Though I am trying my best to really cut down on food, it's just so hard to resist the very sumptuous dishes at Marriott Cafe's Ocean's Surf! I promise, after this, I will really, really, really take my diet seriously and add more minutes to my workout routine at

Demi Lovato: Out of Rehab for Christmas

2010-12-28T13:33:00.004+08:00

Demi Lovato got a pass to leave rehab (an Illinois facility where she gets her treatment for physical and emotional issues), so she could celebrate the Yuletide season with her family in Chicago, Illinois. What she did was go to an upscale movie theater called the Hollywood Blvd Cinema, Bar & Eatery, which has a “full-to-your-seat food and beverage service.” Nice! As soon as she

A-Line Dresses and Caps

2010-12-27T06:22:00.008+08:00

I remember my hubby telling me that he is prepared to see the day when I'll grow big like my mom. It's in my genes, he said, so there's really no way of avoiding it unless I get serious with slimming down.This was taken when it snowed at Enchanted KingdomAnyway, this is probably why I like wearing A-line dresses. I may not be very chubby like my mom (yet) but at least the cut of this kind of

Last Time I Went Out in the City

2010-12-22T04:36:00.004+08:00

The last time I went out in the city was when I went to Halfmoon Asian Cafe for their Bibingcrepe launch. It was held on November 23, three days before I went on a 2-week vacation touring the islands of Negros Oriental and Cebu. I was feeling a bit Christmassy that night so I thought of wearing my beautiful red blouse with ruffles in front. It's one of those items in my Sexy Nomad Apparel

KAOS Presscon Fashion

2010-11-20T08:47:00.012+08:00

Above: To quote Jeman Bunyi Villanueva, co-blogger, before having this photo taken: "Fashion Week ba?" ^_^I recently attended a press conference for the launch of KAOS at Newport Performing Arts Theater located inside Resorts World Manila. I didn't really know what to wear at press cons. I don't think I ever attended one because of my hectic schedule at work but for KAOS, which features both

The Parvati Fashion

2010-11-18T10:10:00.012+08:00

When my husband and I went to Parvati last Sunday to taste the various home-baked desserts they offer, I couldn't help but notice how stylish some of the guests were. I'd like to share here some of the photos we took in between bites of their delectable goodies.I wanted to look prim and proper so I donned my Anne Taylor purple dress with a cream crocheted cardigan top, tied up my hair in a bun

Rose Quartz Ring from Forever 21

2010-11-13T05:12:00.004+08:00

On our second day at Ho Chi Minh, Jem, out of the blue, gave me this very elegant and fashionable Rose Quartz ring from Forever 21. She bought it in U.S. while shopping for some stuff (she lives in Utah now) and when she saw it, she thought of me. How sweet.I've been using it every time I wear something pink. It's just so beautiful! Thank you again Jem! You're really something!

L'OREAL White Perfect, Perfect For Me?

2010-11-12T12:41:00.013+08:00

I got this L'OREAL White Perfect in the mail last weekend and I thought it could be perfect for me since I'll be beach hopping at the end of the month, hoping to get a golden tan. Why so? Well, we've all noticed how the sun's rays are different these days, meaning, they're a lot more violent on the skin and even at 9:00 in the morning, sunlight can already scorch our skin. L'OREAL White

My Resorts World Manila Getup

2010-11-08T14:42:00.009+08:00

I've had a bad case of "I've got nothing to wear!" that evening Peter and I went to Resorts World Manila for the launch of Grand Fiesta Manila 2010 and Grand Fiesta Run 2010. I have numerous attires in mind but nothing fitted me well! Huhuhu. This calls for more exercise and less intake of carbs, which was why I didn't eat a lot even if there were a lot of delicious Chinese food being served at

My Zoobic Getup

2010-11-06T01:04:00.010+08:00

I knew I'd be walking most of the time for this Zoocobia and Zoobic Night Safari trip so I made sure I was wearing something light and comfortable.For my clothes, I wasn't planning on wearing the black hooded vest. But since my white top was too see-through, I decided last minute to wear it and it looked awesome and preppy. The fabric of my ruffled skirt, blouse and hooded vest is made of

My Halloween Getup

2010-11-03T04:02:00.006+08:00

I have a standard set of costumes that I wear every Halloween. I usually go for the Elvira / vampire/ witch/ ghastly Halloween look. There was this year though that I made up a totally different costume --- the pirate look. This year, the only thing that I added were my dark angel wings and mask. I think I was able to pull it off. Anyway, take a peek at my Halloween look for 2010.It makes me

My Bubble Tea Attire

2010-10-29T22:11:00.018+08:00

It's seldom that I get to plan what to wear on the go. Most of the time, it takes me a whole day to contemplate about what to wear to a certain event. But when I went to Bubble Tea, for some reason, I just happen to pick up the perfect clothes in my closet. Prior to going to Bubble Tea in Tomas Morato, I have been awake then for 24 hours, my work was up til my neck and I had no time to prepare. I

My Funky Bowling Outfit ... NOT!

2010-10-28T05:03:00.006+08:00

I was feeling girly that particular evening that I didn't really play in the funky bowling game hosted by the SM Bowling Center at Mall of Asia. I guess I just didn't want to take off my nice silver pumps or ruin my new ruffled blouse by lying on the floor and doing all sorts of funky bowling stunts. That or I was just really having raging hormones due to my period. Teehee. I should've asked

Marc Jacobs Sunglasses

2010-10-26T02:20:00.009+08:00

I first wore my new pair of Marc Jacobs sunglasses during my visit to Nuvali last week. I was with my fellow bloggers touring the whole place and doing all sorts of fun activities.I like this new pair of shades that I have. Aside from the shape, the glasses itself are very comfortable to my eyes. the sun's glare is definitely lessened, and even if I was wearing them indoors, like let's say, while

Suri Cruise - Not a Baby Anymore

2010-10-21T11:45:00.004+08:00

I swear, Suri Cruise is getting prettier and prettier. And she's so big now! I can already picture her in her teens... oh so pretty. She truly has her parents' (Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes) genes.Suri Cruise visited her mom Katie on the set of Jack and Jill yesterday, October 20, Wednesday, located in West Hollywood, California. She really looks so big now. When she was a baby, didn't she look

Peter Pan Attire?

2010-10-19T02:46:00.006+08:00

I was laughing out loud when a high school classmate ofm ine commented on facebook that my getup resembles that of Peter Pan's. Hahahahahahaha!!! OMG! She's so right! The color of my blouse, my tights, even the shoes sans the pointy toes... they all look so elfy. LOL! All I need now is Tinkerbell nearby and a little pointy green hat and indeed, I'd be the female version of this mischievous

Butterscotch Wears Enterprise

2010-10-18T11:47:00.010+08:00

With Dimples at her store in 413 El Grande Ave. Cor. Calcutta St., BF Homes, ParanaqueOn October 9, my friend Irene invited us to come visit the launch of her friend's new direct selling business. As usual, I was interested to find out what the business was all about so Peter and I decided to go.As it turned out, Butterscotch is all about apparel and accessories (mostly women's) with a bit of

Witnessing the World Trade Center FAB Fashion Show

2010-10-13T10:46:00.002+08:00

On October 8, I invited my folks to come watch a fashion show with me, held at World Trade Center. It was a weekend of affordable fab finds from apparel, tech gadgets, to food and accessories. We got there at around 7:00 pm, toured the place a bit and saw various items being sold for cheap. As tempting as the beautiful items were, we didn't buy anything. I still got a ton of stuff at home that

Lindsay Lohan Spends Time with Homeless Kids

2010-09-27T16:02:00.006+08:00

Lindsay Lohan was released from jail earlier this weekend and went off to the Dream Center on Sunday, Sept. 26, located in Los Angeles, to spend some time with the homeless children. The 24-year old actress found it very fulfilling that she tweeted:“What a great place The Dream Center is here in LA… had a nice time there today, it’s so important to give back. I feel blessed.”Lindsay Lohan

Baguio Fashion: Then and Now

2010-09-25T17:45:00.027+08:00

One thing I love about traveling is the art of packing.You know why? Coz before I get to pack my clothes (according to the sequence of wearing them), I make sure that I do a little fashion show first inside the comforts of our own bedroom just so I'm sure that I'm comfy and that I look good with what I plan to wear, much more so if I'm going to a cold place like Baguio. This means that I'd be

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Trailer

2010-09-11T14:58:00.009+08:00

I can't wait for November 19! I have been watching Harry Potter 1-6 over and over and over again non-stop since God knows when. I do it every lunch time at work. I just can't get enough of it! I'm also almost done with the 7th book. I only get to read it during my spare time which is not a lot considering that I work almost 24/7, and I really want to be a witch! Go figure! LOL!Anyhoo, when I

Covered All Over...Or Not

2010-09-09T02:34:00.009+08:00

As usual, whenever I go out to watch a gig or party with friends, the hardest part is figuring out what to wear. I'm not really the type to go with what's in or hot. I go with how I feel. If I feel good about wearing a particular attire, no matter what it may look like to others, then I just wear it.I was supposed to don a sundress at the Brownman Revival gig... the type that makes me feel like

Hilary Duff, Starbucks and Workout

2010-09-08T19:33:00.000+08:00

The 22 year old newly wed Hilary Duff looks so adorable in a beanie when she did her 1 1/2 hour workout then grabbed a cup of Starbucks last Tuesday, Sept. 7, in Studio City, California.but isn't Starbucks full of sugar and calories? Oh well, at least she got to burn them.And last week, her hubby, Mike Comrie, just signed with the Pittsburgh Penguins. So it looks like Hilary will be
