Christmas Online Shopping

As early as October, I already start making list of Christmas gifts for my family and friends. Second week of November I already bought gifts for my mom, sister, sis-in-law (bro's wife) and one nephew. Me and hubby wrapped it last Sunday.
Yesterday I went online shopping at ebay for some more gifts. This are what I end up buying.


Julia office shoes - this is for myself ;)


Terranova duffle bag - for my sis-in-law (hubby's sister)


Charm bracelet - either for my cousin or hubby's cousin


Piping Hot slippers for my inaanak (godson)


Levi's 577 for myself (I'm planning to cut this into shorts)

I only spent a total of Php 1,375 ($28) for all of this items.

Plaid Couture

There is an ongoing Christmas Bazaar at the trade hall of SM City Cebu. If I remember it right, today is the last day of the bazaar. Yesterday during my lunch break I take the chance for a quick trip to the mall to do some quick shopping. ;) I enjoyed hopping from one stall to the other that I lost track of the time. To make it short, I go back to the office at 2pm (I'm suposed to go back at 1pm). Bad I know. And with that 2hours of shopping, I only bought 1 item. lol


I call this the plaid couture shorts - Php100 ($2).

Fashion Designer: Joey Samson

I want to dedicate a little space in my blog to our local fashion designers.
Today I'll feature the recent collection of Joey Samson themed BEYOND for the Fashion Watch series. For him, it was “an attempt to move further, to go beyond trends, beyond what I think I'm capable of doing, beyond what everyone thinks is wearable, beyond what the eyes can see.”

Preggy in Style

I never thought you could be this chic when you're pregnant! This woman (i don't know her name) from mydailystyle amazed me on how she managed to be chic and fashionable even with the baby bump. You could never tell that she is pregnant (if not with the baby bump) judging on her style.






Now I really wish that I could be that chic when I will get pregnant!

Cuff me, Chain me

No doubt that Etsy is the best place for me where you can find unique and nice work of art. While browsing today, I found this shop called Greenbelt. They have a very catchy store slogan: Greenbelt accessories with a conscience. There product was made from recycled leather belts. Take a look of this pictures and let them speak for themselves. ;)
