Bride and Breakfast








none of the pictures are mine. All pictures are from Bride and Breakfast


If you get to know me well, there are two things about me that you'll find out. 1. I'm a cry baby when it comes to anything cheesy, heartbreaking, dogs and weddings. 2. I'm a sucker for grand cheesy gestures. So basically you could say that I am cheesy. haha! I've been home since around 2.30 from school (I'm officially on LOA) and the whole time from then I've been doing was my one and only vise: Wedding blogs and I have one favorite in particular, Bride and Breakfast

I know that I'm only 17 and I'm sure that I alot of people will have their heart racing when they read this blog (especially one! haha) but I've been dreaming of the perfect wedding since I was literally a little girl and I'm sure I'm not alone! And finding that blog just made me imagine this dream more intense than normal. The way Janna (the amazing writer behind the blog) covers the weddings and the pictures she chooses from the thousands being sent to her never fails to make me teary or sometimes even buckets of tears. I love how people nowadays are getting more creative and actually doing Pre-Nup shoots and getting all out with themes and costumes and props! For people who love love and details that exaggerate or atleast show it, will love the blog I'm sure. And what I noticed is that all the gowns of brides are just gorgeous (and pricey I'm sure!) and that blog will never fail to show you. Go check it out and see for yourself.

Hospitals


I was never really a fan of hospitals but I had to be there when my mom got confined and my siblings and I had to stay with her for the past 2 afternoons (thank God no sleeping for us there!!). Don't worry, its nothing serious! Today, I woke up pretty early and headed there with my siblings to visit our mom! To make her feel better we bought her a balloon that says that (though its not really true!) and sunflowers! It really made her happy I could tell! :-)

My mom hates the dextrox so so much! haha

We bought Becky's kitchen for us to munch on the whole afternoon! IF you havent tried these, my god you are definitely missing out! We bought Crinkles, Brownies, Lemon Squares and Food for the gods! yumm

Photobucket

One of the reasons why I hate hospitals: They're scary. Look at that.

Buti ka pa, may kasama. HAHAHA

I took my outfit shots by the stairs and later on did I realize that I am in a hospital and I got so scared to look at my pictures afterwards cause there might be ghosts appearing and such. Thank God, none did. If you see something, tell me. hahaha (please dont)

I got home at around 11 pm and what I did right after showering was fixing more clothes that I was gonna sell so that I can shoot them tomorrow. I was supposed to Saturday and Sunday but since this hwole thing with my mom happened, it got postponed. So tomorrow will definitely be spent for that :-) 

Photobucket

I'm really really excited or this and I hope you guys support it!! And finally, I've decided that I will be releasing the site on WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 19, 2011 at 7.30 pm!! 



Its only 12.35 right now but I have to get some sleep since I'll be the ones waking my siblings up just in time for their 7.30 class (GOODLUCK TO ME!) since my mom's not around! :-) Hope you had a great Sunday!

P.S. I got my 100th follower today!! Yayyy! haha

Elle Naturel


Went to school today to get more signatures but still not finished! haha I have to go back again next weeeek. SO hassle! haha but it was nice to go around school again, I missed it so much! haha Anyway enough about that, I bought this last year just before the Christmas break and I think this is my favorite romper to date!! Expect me to keep repeating this! haha :-) I woke up at around 8 am today after staying up all night till 4 am fixing things for SHOP A Shoe Tale! I'm actually making tags for the clothes! haha I'm so excited to show it to you guys!! :-)

Used my orange lipstick from The Face Shop :-) Bought it about 2 weeks ago! :-)

These shoes are an example of a bad online seller who lied and ripped off money from me. The shoes in the pictures she posted were higher, better looking and had better quality. The seller told me that the shoes were gonna be shipped from the U.S. so I paid almost 3k for them and when it arrived, it came from China and were definitely priced atleast only half of what I paid. The online shop was shoesinthecity and it's now officially closed, THANK GOD! This happened about a year ago but still I'm sure this what I'm saying now still happens and maybe more since online shops are so rampant nowadays. So my point is be careful when buying stuff online. Always ask for a picture of the actual shoes before paying and always ask questions :-) 

Photobucket

After school I went to Mall of Asia to do some errands and I bought these rings from SM earlier!! Aren't they pretty??? :-D

Photobucket

I finally got these magazines!! I'm so happy bout the Preview issue of this month! GOOD JOB PREVIEW! and the Gold Records to go with is is just pretty! I'm gonna have a collaboration with someone awesome along with the Trends of 2011!! :-) Also I bought tons of food for my siblings today!!  and for myself ofcourse! haha

Also bought this book and I'm excited to read it!! :-) 

Photobucket

Went home at around 2 pm to finish shooting the rest of the clothes I'll be selling and I was SO lazy that I shot bout 20 and fell asleep right after! haha But here are the three boxes full of clothes that I'm so excited to sell! haha I'll announce the release date and time SOON! :-) 

Photobucket

Today was really special for me because of the following reasons:
1. My sister and I were in the Philippine Star today! It was a surprise for me and it was even my dad who texted me saying "Youre in Phil Star today. Congrats! :)" SOOO cute!! hahaha I love it when I know I can make him proud by little things like these since I grew up around two siblings who achieved in sports at such an early age. These little features of me makes him happy and proud and ofcourse that makes me overjoyed! :-) Here's the article :-)
2.  I was texting with another blogger early today about the collaboration I was talking about up there and I'm SO excited for it!!! :-) Definitely one to watch out for! ;-)
3. I got an email from a famous brand about being one of their asset-bloggers for the next few months!!!!!!!!! AHHH I'm am soooooooo happy you have no idea!! Will reveal more details and what brand I'm talking about later on! ;-)

When God closed a door on me, he opened the ROOF for me! I'm so happy and thankful to and for Him right now :-) AND ofcourse all of these things wouldn't be possible if not for you guys! Thank you thank you :-) Will answer formspring questions now! Got about 30 to answer! :-) Have a great Friday!

SHOP A Shoe Tale COMING SOON!


New year, new clothes! 
Both Monday and Wednesday were solely devoted to cleaning my closet and seeing all these pretty clothes just being sad and lonely in my closet because they're being neglected by me :-( So I've carefully chosen about 80 pieces of clothes that I've only used once or twice or some never worn at all to share with you girlies! And you'll be assured that these clothes were handled with love cause I treat my clothes like children :-) hahaha So today, all I did was shoot about 30 pieces and will spend the rest of the afternoon tomorrow to shoot the next 50! :-) The date and time of when I'll be releasing it will follow but here are a few teasers! 



Thank you again to Francesca Soriano for this lovely header! ;) I just used splashlight to add the shop! HAHA!
