Five years already?  That was fast.  I remember when I started with Pag-ibig MP2 back in March 11, 2020.  After my first remittance of P500.00 via Palawan - then pandemic started.  I was not able to continue my monthly remittance because of the lock down.  When it was lifted I resumed my MP2 remittance and decided to increase my remittance to P1,000.00 per month.  At this time GCash has already started accepting MP2 remittance payments so it's very convenient with a P5.00 transaction fee as compared to Palawan's P7.00 per transaction.

They say jeans never go out of style... but this 2025 we will see more of new denim silhouettes and styles.  From your classic straight or skinny.. be ready for the return of the flare, baggy and the boot cut.  One my favorites in this returning trend is the "wide leg denims".   Remember denims does not only mean jeans per se, but also tops, jackets, skirts and shorts. Here are some of  the denim trends you will see this year: * The Co-ords (Double Denims) :    Why settle on wearing one denim when you can wear two, right?   An oversized denim shirt + Wide leg high waist denim jogger.  This is one of my faves, aside from I love coordinates dressing: I  am also into wide leg trousers, because I find it comfortable to wear.   Source: Zara Denim Cape + Shorts : The cape gives a different take on the usual denim jacket.  For sure it will also look good when you pair it with your favorite jeans.

After my post on  the bag trends this year, the next question is - What Jewelries or Accessories will dominate Year 2025?  I love accessorizing but when Covid-19 struck, I refrained from wearing accessories ( because you have to sanitize everything after each wear.. haha).   Here are the accessories that we will see more this 2025: source: Refinery29 Brooch & Pins   - Yes, brooches are back!  Vintage brooches and pins on your coat or jacket gives them a different personality and uniqueness on your ensemble.  Let's just say that these trinkets are the bag charms of the world of jewelry.  source: Cosmopolitan Stacked bangles - These trend made a major role on the S/S2025 runway.  I love bracelet stacking... will surely add this on my OOTD. source: Cosmopolitan Bold Beaded Jewelry - Layering beaded necklaces and stacking beaded bracelets is definitely a big YES for me.  Best to layer multi beaded necklaces of different lengths.  ...

Happy New Year!  My first post for the year...  I love bags so why not post something about it.  As a bagaholic, I always look forward on what are trending bags every year.  Been browsing several  fashion sites to know what's in for 2025.  I hope you are all excited to know too...  COS Eastside Bowling bag ($170.00) The Top Handle  Top handle bags rarely goes out of style.  The trend continues this coming 2025.  Though the top handles have been reinvented a couple of times, but it's still the classic office bag trend.  Classic, Chic and Ladylike.
