Summer Shorts!

Today I had my oathtaking. A long, long, long but wonderfully exhilarating day. I wore a gray Calvin Klein dress and patent red Stella Luna pumps with snakeskin heels. Posting photos of my big day soon! But for now, I leave you with this: I’m aware that I haven’t been posting much on my fashion [...]

Universal Studios Singapore

First stop of our Singapore trip — Universal Studios Singapore! Hot as it is in Singapore, with the unpredictable rainshowers, I decided to dress appropriately and went with a white tank, denim cutoffs and tie-up gladiator flats plus an unwieldy umbrella as an accessory. That’s my first USS tip, bring an umbrella. It’s protection from [...]

Simple Dos and Donts for the Singapore Tourist

On how to conduct yourself: 1. DON’T be brash, loud or rude even while speaking in your native language. Specially if you’re Filipino and you’re in Singapore. Chances are, there are plenty around you who understand perfectly well what you’re saying. Singapore is the new Manila. Once at the Singapore Zoo, while we were looking [...]

MNL-SG-MNL, or, My Singapore Trip

You may have noticed (or not) that I’ve been quiet for a while. Best not to speculate, you probably thought grimly, she could be up to ANYTHING. Yes, I was indeed. I was wreaking havoc in orderly, first-world Singapore! My boyfriend did his best to contain me, but people, I could not be stopped. Tomorrow [...]

Hating on Meralco

For those, unaware of what’s going on, Meralco (Manila Electric Company) increased their power rates and most, if not all, have found that their electricity bills have doubled. Consider the case of chuvaness whose bill went up to about 1000 USD who posted: Dear kind reader, I’ve been very depressed since Thursday upon receiving my [...]

Travel-friendly Footwear 1

I’ve been spoiled by my car and my havaianas. I’m either driving to get to one place or another, or slipping into a pair of my beloved havaianas for when I expect to do some serious walking (aka heavy duty shopping). As a result, days away from my Singapore trip, I find that my shoe [...]

Twin Lagoons – Coron, Palawan

If I had to choose, the destination must in Coron would be the Twin Lagoons. Getting there was another scenic boat ride where we passed through here… Turned right here… In order to dock here. When we first docked, I was a bit nonplussed. This is it? I mean, don’t get me wrong, the place [...]

Blooms

I love flowers. And I love them on everything. This freesize, garterwaist floral dress is the perfect breezy summer dress and doubles as a beach coverup. This top was featured in Preview’s March 2010 issue. Isn’t it gorgeous? The sweetheart neckline, the sexy fit of a bustier and the colors of spring. http://oliviaandfifth.multiply.com A designer [...]

Prints

Style, for me, is the ability to marry the usual, with the unexpected. A classic cut or style, paired with an unconventional accessory, or perhaps, the most disparate trends combined in the most refreshing manner. The easiest way to achieve this is usually with the clever use of prints. In this entry, I featured a [...]
