charmed life♥

I have discovered a new fashion bracelet that is so popular in Italy.  Actually the brand not only carries bracelets but also rings, earrings, necklaces and watches.  It was born in 2010 and its vision was: "Ensure that people surround themselves with beauty and from beauty itself would take the inspiration to be happy" What I love about OPS! was its uniqueness and versatility! Like the OPS!Love its made of anallergic resin with a velvet touch and the heart charm was made of silicon.  OPS!Lux is more on the luxury side: made of metal plated resin with acetate heart charm. Other OPS! Collection are Pois, Studs, Rock and Tennis.  All of them are gorgeous! It's a bit pricey: Price ranges from 22Euro to 48Euro for bracelets, 36Euro to 48Euro for necklaces, rings 28Euro to 34Euro, earrings 26Euro to 39Euro But don't worry you can have these armcandies for less at  Fabulousity by Chiq♥  : OPS! Inspired bracelets will be available soon!♥ ...

Aloha♥ Sweet Pink Summer♥ At last I had time to do this!  I really miss updating my  Lookbook 2013  which is one of the features of my online shop:  Fabulousity by Chiq♥ This is one of my favorite past time... aside from designing accessories, i love styling. For the first look: Aloha - It's more of a Hawaiian feel, walking on the shores of the popular beaches in Hawaii, seed beads bracelet, maxi dress...  Second look is more sweet and dainty... Summer 2013 is a mixture of bold and pastel tones... if you're not into bright hues this one's for you...you'll always be Pretty in PINK! Happy Styling!♥

Last year my online journal in multiply (that's why i reactivated my blogger account) said "sayonara" since according to the management they will concentrate on online selling... months after that, I received this notice from them again.  It was so sad since my online store Fabulousity by Chiq Santos♥ started there... It was August 10, 2011 when I opened my online shop.. For a first time online seller: multiply really helped me to manage my online store.  Good thing that apart from that, I made a page in Facebook for my other contacts.  Now its easier for me since I need not migrate anything. Visit  Fabulousity by Chiq Santos♥  on Facebook or you can Follow me on Instagram @fabulouschq It was really heartbreaking to say goodbye to Multiply, where my store started...  Big thanks to Multiply... its sad that you're signing off permanently.

One of my summer must-have aside from sun-block are my sunnies or sunglasses.  We have to protect our eyes from UV rays. Sunnies comes in different styles and shapes, it really depends on the shape of your face : what is suitable for you.  Aviators, wayfarers, round and catseye are the trend this year.   But you don't really need to buy a pair every year, as long as you care for them it will surely last a long time.  I remember my first branded sunnies is a Calvin Klein catseye tortoiseshell which I bought in the 90's... i can still use it.  No scratches and still looking like new... very vintage! I tried checking my dresser shelf where i keep them... and whoala!  I realized i have a couple of pairs...  guess i now need a nice organizer for these babies! :) My most recent purchases are Super Lucia and Catseye big frame sunnies from Mango.

At last I had to time to update my blog! Last week I received an invite from Ms. Yna of Mango-Eastwood: Mango VIP Sale - 20% off if you get 3 items.  I was so excited and can't wait to visit the store... I'm a Certified Mango addict since Mango opened their shop here in the Philippines.  I remember I used to go to Edsa Shangrila Mall just to shop for clothes.  Now it only takes me 15 minutes from home to Eastwood. (shops are within reach)      I really love their summer collection!  When I went to the store I really don't know what to get... almost all of them are nice, want to grab everything! (*wink)  I have told Ms. Kelly Santos - Mango's Country supervisor that I'll be "purita" soon... Of all seasons.. Mango's Summer collection is always the best!  Very trendy, vibrant colors, high quality everything you've always wanted for a summer ensemble: really fit for the stylish you!  And now it's more affordable, there are dresses...
