We often hear this fashion trend nowadays... So what does color blocking mean? Color blocking - is combining loud and bright colors for more dynamic and confident look... But if you're not ready to mix or combine colors Black and White offers a modern look all you need to do is to add BOLD colorful accessories! ( Shoes, handbags, bracelets, and necklaces take part in this trend and are an amazing way to maximize your look! )  Here's a little tip to help you in color blocking...1. is to choose 3 colors for an ideal combination (use the color wheel below) Most popular theory in color combination is the rule of two thirds. How to achieve this? Start by making and equilateral triangle (triangle with 3 equal sides) on the color wheel from there PICK two of the three colors that the triangle touches... these colors will almost harmonize together beautifully. Here are few color blocking samples: Cobalt blue, Yellow, Orange Chocolate Brown, Pink, Pe...

Got a PINK last Sunday! ♥  Last year i missed the promo, so i promised myself i will not miss it this year! All the colors are nice but i chose the pink one!  You can get this upon a minimum purchase of P3,000.00 from Mango!  Though its made from "katsa" ... i Love it! and i ♥ MANGO!

I don't know why I am so drawn in collecting planners or organizers.  I recently received a Starbucks 2011 planner from my cousin Steph. Honestly, i don't really like writing on them, i just keep them. I am happy seeing them piled in my bookshelf at home... At work i have a couple in my drawer...  Some of them i keep, but i also use planners to organize my "things-to-do" and to remember... This year i am using a Hello Kitty planner I got from National Bookstore.  ♥

I just love piling on rings as a simple yet a chic way to complete an outfit or even to completely change its mood. (on me: Vintage lace and Peacock cocktail ring -  from Fabulousity by Chiq Santos♥)

Everyone of us have our own childhood dream...  I am a big Sanrio fan! I remember whenever we go to Unimart in Greenhills shopping center i always wanted to stop by Gift gate.  To buy a pencil with pencil cap of course or even a small memo pad or sticker...My favorite characters were My Melody and of course Hello Kitty.  I still have some of them... like my mirror and comb compact, old pencils and stamp.   I have always wanted to have a Hello Kitty Theme Party. ♥  So i promised myself, i'll do it on my 40th birthday.  I was really excited in preparing it! (Well, i really enjoy party planning.) I started with the concept... what i really want..!?  I wanted the party to be intimate... with my family, close friends.. those who made a mark / were with me in my 40s.   Party Theme: HELLO KITTY PINK PARTY♥ The planning was exciting... i did a couple of research online... i even went to Divisoria with my brother to find the stuff i need....

After the Realtors said goodbye on the 33rd season of the PBA after losing in the Reinforced conference quarter finals vs Ginebra... I was never really "into" watching the game even on TV. But yesterday, It was awesome seeing our players receive special recognition on the Annual Leo Awards. I know they've worked hard for it... The Realtor's frontliners... Kelly Williams, Ryan Reyes and Nelbert Omolon were some of the players who got the awards last night. And I'm just proud to say that even if the team didn't enter this conference's finals they were able to bring home the 2 main awards last night --- The MVP and Rookie of the Year award. Sideline: The last time I watched the Annual Pba awards was when my all-time fave player Benjie Paras made an indelible mark in the PBA being the 1st to receive the Rookie and MVP award in 1989... (watched it live at Payanig sa Pasig grounds - now Metro walk) There's no doubt that Kelly will win the MVP race aside from...

I read this from the lifestyle page of Inquirer... since i'm a CERTIFIED bagaholic... this was very helpful to me... Now i know how to really care for my bags... they're one of my most cherished possessions. Be it branded or not it doesn't matter. Especially our humid climate isn't bag friendly.. so we must learn how to take care of them. Protect them coz it's quite an investment also... PATENT BAGS : They are not easy to clean. Many patent bags are structured, so be careful where you store your bag. They lose their form easily, oftentimes permanently. The stains on them are the toughest to remove, esp. penmarks are really impossible to erase. They also get discolored when you store them on places with direct light. If in case you accidentally mark your bag with a pen, use baby wipes to clean immediately. Don't wipe it off in different directions coz fresh ink can leave smudges. Just pat it down first to ensure the ink doesn't smear all over before you r...
