After months of waiting I finally got my hands on you! I am not really into lippies because there are brands that dries (especially the matte finish lipsticks)  my lips and the ending - chapped lips.  But my IG friend was going ga-ga about this and persuaded me to try it.  After several tries (always sold out), I was able to get one.   Here's my take on the most coveted lippy at the moment.   Color : Candy K it's the most salable (my top pick).  It's soft and warm nude color - i like it, but I was wanting - something with orange undertone.  So I might try the Exposed shade next time.   Lip liner : Love the lip liner!♥ The liner is soft and glides easily.  It's pigmented and long lasting.  It can be sharpened even if you feel that it's made of plastic.  I hope they'll sell separate liners soon. Lipstick : The lipstick is a bit sticky at first but dries quickly.  Tip: Before applying a thin layer o...

One of the popular lines of Tory Burch was Robinson (named for Tory's parents Buddy & Reva Robinson). In 2014 they have introduced a pebbled leather version of the tote.   The structure is similar to the double zip tote, aside from the side zip compartments it also features a magnetic snap closure open middle compartment.   It's a two-way bag: can be hand held and it comes with an extra adjustable shoulder strap, so you can carry it on your shoulders or cross body. The bag was very spacious.  The interior of the bag: lined with Tory Burch signature lining.  Middle open compartment have  2 open  and 1 zip pockets, just below the zip pocket you can find a metal plate with Tory Burch engraving. The 2 side zip compartments are best in putting your other belongings more secured. It is made from super soft, textured leather. Dimension: 13.55" x 10.16" x 6.37".  With it's 13.55 inches length it can fit a 13" laptop or an...

Shang Style spectrum presents Summer Silhouettes last May 14, 2016 at the East Atrium.  The annual fashion show features the latest collection from our favorite shops in Shangrila mall.  My nephew was lucky enough to be chosen by Gingersnaps (again) to be one of their models.  Lance was one of the winners of the Gingersnaps Model Search for their 20th Anniversary (2014), so this was not really new to him. Lance with Lulu his co-model at Gingersnaps boutique before the fashion show Jasmine, Lance, Lulu, Sophia and Ystelle It was like a little reunion of these kiddos... after 2 years.  Still an awesome experience for Lance and his model friends... Again thank you Gingersnaps for the opportunity!

I know it's been a while... My blogging needs to take a back seat for a while, a loved one (my mom's sister) passed away.  After 10 months of fighting and struggling with CA, she is now in peace in heaven.  It's not an easy journey for her, but in spite of the pain, whenever I visit and ask her how she's doing : she gives me a nice smile and goes - "I'm okay now."  I will miss her sweet smile, her cooking (she cooks the best Kare kare and Goto), her beautiful voice (especially when she sings the Salve Regina after we pray the rosary)  but I know she is in a better place now without pain.   Ma. Corazon Reyes-Pascual August 29, 1941 -  May 18, 2016 A little trivia about my Ninang Cora: (She is everybody's Ninang though she's not really their god mother, like me she is the god mother of my sister but I call her Ninang also.)  She's a grade school teacher (teaches music and science) and assistant principal at Santolan Elementary school....
