ocean, Earth and Sky giveaway

Bloggers are generous people, they blog not just because they want to share their interests about fashion, food, places, and their daily life but they are also good in treating their followers with care and not to mention they are very thoughtful that they give free stuff and giveaways to their followers. I admit, I'm a hopeless follower in every blogger and I joined every giveaway, because these are free stuff. You know what I meant? You get to check out their fashion styles, follow them and in return they give you free stuff? Ain't that the sweetest thing a blogger could ever offer? And speaking of giveaway, Missing bee is having her giveaway and it's open for everyone. Honestly, I love skirt plus I love the fact that it's for free. And so I'm crossing my fingers that I do hope this time I'll be chosen as a winner..

Here's the link at her site for those who wants to win the stuff too.. :)

Frosty the Snowman at North Edsa

Mingming and I went to SM North Edsa earlier. He was playing Playstation 3 at I-tech in Cyberzone, I on the other hand, was surfing the net, checking my blogs and playing games in Facebook. When it was time for us to go home, by the time we passed by in Sky garden, the light in the garden caught Mingming's attention, he loves photography and were planning of buying a professional camera. And so to test his photography skills, he took pictures of me using my Sony DSC-W55. What do you think of his shots? Not bad for a newbie ayt? The quality is not that clear though because were just using a camera that has a 7.2 megapixels compared to those SLR camera's. By the way, the reason why I titled this post as Frosty the snowman because I saw this huge lighted snowman in the sky garden and I told Mingming to take an outfit shot of me with the snowman, but sad to say, the snowman is way too big that I look so small in the picture. Anyways, so much for all the talk, here are the snap shots of me in the Sky Garden.

Spotlight

Another angle. Good thing there's no sign that says keep off the grass. LOL

And lastly meet Mr. Frosty the Snowman. See how small I look? That's my outfit shot for now

PS: Sorry for the stressed look, I am still adjusting to the graveyard shift again and I felt like a zombie for the past 2 days. Needs more sleep and rest.

Graveyard shift

Sorry for the late post. I've been terribly busy that I barely had time to check my blog and even Facebook. Last Monday, my shift was changed, I was moved back to graveyard shift and that means another sleepless nights and never ending calls. I'm a trainer but for the meantime since I still have no trainee's I'm obliged to take calls especially if its queuing and its because it's also part of my stats. Moving on, because of my hectic schedule, I barely had time to shop, compared when I was still in day shift I have plenty of time to shop and stroll in the mall. A lot of things have changed since then but shopping doesn't stop there. Last Wednesday my manager is selling some Custo Barcelona's bags, and because there's this bag that I've been eyeing and the last time I bought a bag was so last week and without further ado, I bought the bag. It costs Php550.

And also bought new pair of earrings and a ring in a bazaar in Eastwood last Sunday.

This earrings costs Php100

This ring costs Php100

Giveaways are blessings!

Speaking of Ichigo, last month I bought a new heels from Ichigo and right now, I'm planning of buying a new pair of sandals from them. And you know what? Aisa from Drowning Equilibriums is giving out gift certificates of Ichigo worth Php600! Ain't that amazing?? I am up for that giveaway and since I'm still saving my money to buy a new sandals, I do hope I'll win the gc so that at least I can buy 2 items.. Weeeee.... Wish me luck! Do you want to win too? Visit Aisa's amazing blog and feel free to join besides, there's no harm in trying but happiness in winning. :) Yikes.

First time

They said there's always a first time for everyone and I sincerely believed that. This month I had my first's. November just started but GOD showered me with abundant blessings. Thank YOU so much LORD.. First of all, this month I had my first promotion, proud to say I'm no longer an agent but a Process/Lead Trainer for our account. Honestly, even up to now I still can't believe that I got promoted or was accepted, 'coz as far as I knew I was totally lost and I almost freaked out during the interview but good thing GOD is in control that is why I passed. Yipeee.. Second, I got my first facial care treatment or session, I am not really vain when it comes to my face, you can barely see me wearing make up and I am way too lazy to wash my face at night, but my face is not that worst. Anyways, my colleague and I decided to avail the promo of Flawless - Power of P999. It means facial treatment for 3 sessions is only for P999. And so, I decided to reward and pamper myself. I just found out that each session costs P550. So we were able to save Php699, not bad huh. Third, I bought an Ichigo heels. I admit I am the sneaker type of girl or I'm really into flats and slippers, and honestly, I've never had any high heels. Just this month, I was so curious to try heels so I decided to buy one. Well, I haven't used them yet but maybe soon. I'm just trying to find a perfect outfit. And lastly, I'm looking forward for my first full 13th month. I am super duper excited. Last year I had my 13th month but it was pro-rated, compared this month, I'll be able to get the whole payout. Wow! Ain't that cool and exciting for all my first? One thing I do hope and pray and I know GOD won't allow it, my first valid centertrack (oh GOD forbid).

Cheers for this month and have a long blast month!

PS: Care to share your first too? Looking forward to hear your firsts. :)

And to spice up this post, here are the pics of me and Chai at Flawless Megamall.

That's me.. Before the session:)

And by the way, this is the promo that we availed. :) The Power of 999

The Ring

These days, I'm insanely crazy about rings and accessories. I'm supposed to be in my shopping ban but then I just can't help it. Everyday, I've been struggling not to buy these and that, and my boyfriend calls it "unnecessary" because he is very practical for some reasons like for example clothes, he once asked me why do I have to buy clothes every now and then when in fact I still have lots of clothes in my closet that I can use everyday? He finds it unnecessary and he calls it an expensive addiction. Well, I told him blame it on being a girl these are our own worries and simply our cravings, shopping is like our own brand of heroine, it makes us feel high. Agree??

Speaking of accessories, I ordered these rings online because I was looking for someone like this:
Aren't my babies so cute and adorable? Love it!

My Rainbow ring

Hello Kitty Black Resin Ring

Isn't it obvious that I am so addicted to Hello Kitty? They are the cutest. :)

presenting Deathbyplatforms Cole Vintage Blog Give Away!

They said the best things in life are those that comes in for free, isn't it fun when you get to have additional fabulous outfits and stuff just because you won such giveaways? Wow, amazing but true and I guess this is the advantage of being a blogger, you're not only having fun but at the same time you are winning. And speaking of which, Death by Platforms is having her Cole Vintage 1st Giveaway!!!
Without further hesitation, I then joined, why should I waste these opportunity? Ayt??

Here's one of my top picks:

Pronounce it right

I admit I'm not really a signature brand type of girl, for me whatever the brand is as long as comfort is still the key. I've only had few designer stuff and mostly I bought them from vintage stores and thrift shops. I've known some signature stuff and believe me some of them are hard to pronounce, we find a hard time pronouncing these signature labels and the designer's name itself. I'm not hypocrite and honestly I am a victim myself when it comes to pronouncing some of the big names. Good thing Kristine Roa from Instyle Cebu posted hints and tips and mini guide on how to pronounce your favorite fashion designer's name.

This would be a big help to those fashion starters like me. Not only we can familiarize ourselves on how to pronounce it but we can actually say it loud with confidence knowing we know them not because we are born raised fashionista's but because we do love, follow and wear these highly fashionable branded stuff.

Here are some of the common ones:

Balenciaga (Bah-len-see-AH-gah)
Bebe (Bee-Bee)
Bulgari (bull-ga-ree)
Cartier - Car-ti-yey
Celio – Chel-yo
Chanel - Sha-nel
Chloe - Klo-ay
Christian Dior - Kree-styang/ Christiane – Krees-tyan Dee-yor
Christian Louboutin - Kree-styan Loo-bi-TUHN (listen to JLo’s new single!)
Dolce & Gabbana: DOLE-chay and gab-BON-a
Estee Lauder – Es-tay Lo-der
Clarins – Clarans
Giorgio Armani - Gjyerjo-Ahrmanee
Girbaud – Jir-bow
Hermès: AIR-mehz
Kerastase – Ke-ras-tass
Lanvin : lon-vawn OR lon-vahn
Miu Miu - Mew-Mew
Moschino: mo-SKEEN-o
Nike – Nay-ki
Salvatore Ferragamo: Sal-va-TOH-reh Fair-a-GAH-moe
Shu Uemura – Shoe Ooh-eh-moorah
Tag Heuer – Tag Ho-yer
Xoxo - So-So

The pointy red horn

Yesterday, Megamall had their trick or treat event, aside from the fact that it's Sunday, it is expected that the mall will be crowded, and yes indeed I was right. We went there late in the afternoon, and by the time we arrived in the mall, what amazes me is that kids were wearing their Halloween costumes to name a few there were the common Batman, Spiderman, Superman, princesses, angels, fairy and how can I forget the ever devil with the overused red headband horn. Honestly, I've never been to any Halloween parties or event ever since, that is why Halloween parties or simply trick or treat is not really a big deal for me. But then looking back yesterday, looking those kids in their perfect costumes and bringing their pumpkins full of candies, it made me look back and somehow wished that my parents should have exposed me and my siblings such as like these. I mean, at least for once I could dress up and portray someone.

But anyways, the other day Mingming and their team had a Halloween fever at work, their team decided to dress up like devils and witches. And when I came home, he scared the hell out of me at the front door wearing those red pointed horns in all black costume. I'm not really a chicken or what but because when I came inside the room, everything was dark and I couldn't see anything but when I closed the door he was there standing behind the door in his evil look face and devilish smile that somehow made me scream. And because of that, I did punch him. Good for him. LOL

Here's the picture of Mingming wearing his simple DYI costume made by their team. He doesn't look scary right?

And below is a picture of me in a wacky smile while trying the red pointed horns


And lastly, the sexy outfit shot of a modern devil -
(just kidding) I'm just making fun of his red horns.
