Dress Top

January 25, 2016 25 Comments

DETAILS: TOP CLASSIFIED (SIMILAR HERE AND HERE)/ RAYBAN SUNGLASSES in Gold/ SHOES – CHARLOTTE RUSSE/ BAG MICHAEL KORS similar here in Blush Pink

Happy Monday loves! Today, I am sharing another look from my recent trip to the Philippines. This top is actually a dress according to the sales rep (but for petites ” I think”) and since it is too short for me I just wore it as a top so I called it dress top.

I was shopping there and found this beauty on the mannequin. The mannequin was also wearing it like a top. So I ask the sales rep if I could try it and I really liked it so much. This can be my early spring/summer look for this year. And with this style, you can easily add blazer and it will be an instant work outfit or a trench coat I you just want to be casually chic.

The colors I am currently obsessed right now are neutral colors and the typical back and white combo. I am leaning towards more outfit mix and matching this year. I hope this look inspired you.

Have a nice and beautiful day. Thank you for stopping by and for all your comments.

Details: Dress – Maldita/ Handbag – (Anne Klein SIMILAR HERE)/ Shoes – Charlotte Russe/ Watch – (Bulova SIMILAR HERE)/ Nail Polish – Orly

Hello beauties! I have missed you all. It’s been awhile I know, This is actually my first official post for 2016. For those of you who have been following me on instagram knows that I have been on vacation to the Philippines for 3 weeks. Yes! the whole fambam had a winter escape and we all enjoyed it so much. Not only because of the beautiful weather there but because we were there to celebrate the Holidays with our beloved families. Not to mention how hard It was to find a good internet signal and plus most of the time we were with the fambam that is why I have been M.I.A.

Today, I am sharing this look that I wore on my husband’s grandfather’s 80th birthday Celebration. If you notice here, I chopped my hair. Yes indeed! It is the new year and I want to have a new look. My shortest hair ever, and I am loving it. Thanks to Nico the stylist who encouraged me to try this look. What do you think? The dress I am wearing here is from a local store in the Philippines (Maldita). One of the brands I loved when I was still back home.

Here is another question? Did you notice my eyelashes? Yes, I finally braved myself and tried it. I actually like it so much but not the part where I cannot just rub my eyes the way I used to. It was also hard to swim with it. But hey! It makes me feel good.

On my upcoming post… I will talk about more of my trip and all the things I have done which I think is worth sharing. I invite you to visit Philippines when you get a chance to go to Asia. It is a neighboring country to Thailand, Indonesia, China, Japan, Korea and a whole lot more.

I hope I was able to give inspiration to all of you. Thank you for stopping by and for all your comments. Have a great day!

NYE Outfit

December 30, 2015 20 Comments

DETAILS: RED DRESS c/o OASAP

Hello lovelies! Sending warm greetings from the Philippines! Yes, I am on vacation and that is why I am MIA blogging. Last time I visited my family here was 3 years ago. I so missed them and the tropical warmth of our country specially around this time of the year when it is cold in the USA.

Today, I am wearing this dress from oasap to wear for NYE. I know…. another red. I guess it has been my favorite color of the year. Why Red? It is a very lucky color to wear on NYE coming from my chinese roots. It has been our tradition here in the Philippines to wear red on NYE because we have a lot of Filipino-Chinese, it has been said that it brings good luck and prosperity for the New Year.

And can you see how gorgeous this dress are? And it is only under $20 but very good quality for its price tag. I really love this one! I just had to make adjustments with size because it is big. I usually order Large when it comea from China but this one is truly Large in fit. I guess I should have gotten a size small.

I just want to greet everyone a very Happy New Year and be blessed! Thank you for stopping by and enjoy!

Outfits For Snow Getaway and Winter Break

December 18, 2015 32 Comments

Hello lovelies! Today, I’m sharing some outfit inspiration for your upcoming holiday trip. Whether you’re heading to snowy mountains for skiing or snow tubing, or escaping the cold for a warm, sunny destination like we will be doing right after Christmas, I’ve got you covered.

Let’s start with the essentials for a winter getaway. When packing for a cold destination, make sure to include:

1. Heavy Coat: A warm, insulated coat is a must. Look for one that’s both stylish and practical.
2. Thermal Layers: Pack thermal tops and leggings to wear under your clothes. They provide extra warmth without adding bulk.
3. Sweaters and Hoodies: These are great for layering and keeping cozy.
4. Waterproof Boots: Essential for snowy conditions. Make sure they’re comfortable and have good traction.
5. Accessories: Don’t forget hats, gloves, and scarves. These items are key to staying warm.
6. Snow Pants: If you plan on skiing or snow tubing, these are necessary to keep you dry and warm.

Now, if you’re lucky enough to be heading somewhere warm, here’s what you need:

1. Swimwear: Pack a couple of swimsuits for lounging by the pool or hitting the beach.
2. Lightweight Clothing: Think sundresses, shorts, and tank tops. These are perfect for warm weather.
3. Sandals: Comfortable sandals are a must for strolling around.
4. Sunscreen and Sunglasses: Protect your skin and eyes from the sun.
5. Hats: A wide-brimmed hat can be both stylish and practical, providing shade and adding to your look.

I hope this guide helps you decide what to pack for your holiday adventure. Enjoy your holiday loves, and may you all have a fantastic time this season. Thank you for stopping by my blog and sharing your thoughts in the comments.

Hello dear friends! I hope everyone is having a good day. Today, I am sharing you these precious photos that my husband took. I got of work early today because of low patient caseload and Adi had an early dismissal from school too. It is unusual that both of us got home early. So when I was cleaning up a little bit I thought it will be fun to try out our Holiday outfit that we bought for our upcoming party with family and friends.

Here I am sharing one of the party looks we have this season. As you can see, both the kids are in the mood for picture taking. I tell you, it is very rare that Aidan will participate in pictures. Got lucky today!

Power Outfit

Power Outfit a6 (2)

DETAILS: TURTLE NECK SWEATER, BLACK JEANS, SHOES, COAT, SUNGLASSES (SAME BUT DIFFERENT COLOR HERE), BAG, BELT (OLD-SIMILAR HERE)

Good morning my dear friends! Today I am joining shopstyle to on their Bloggers Give Back Campaign with Dress for Success.

I just wanna share to you this power outfit I am wearing right now. When I was a fresh grad and was looking for a job. I always see those corporate ladies wearing mostly shades of black and their heels. I also see confidence in them so in my mind, it is a strong outfit. So I told myself that when I go for an interview I should be wearing heels (any kind) and an outfit that has black (dress, slacks… anything black I must say). I added this trench coat because it looks very chic and professional. To me power outfit means success and you have to be professional to gain it.

I also wanna share my success story. To me, to where I am right now is already success and I know it doesn’t end here as we always strive to get better. I must say that everybody that we meet in life starting with our family and then friends and even detractors. Share a piece on how you mold yourself to be successful because as to my friends and family they help me with their guidance and encouragement, as to my detractors (we always have some in our life weather e like it or not) they always challenge our capabilities and then we find out how strong we are after overcoming it.
