Laces&Bows Fashion Show

It was such a great honor to be invited by Silliman University College of Business Administration to sponsor a fashion show in their acquaintance party. It was actually through my sister that made this fashion show possible. I and my sister is proud to be invited for such event to sort of advertise our online shop to mostly students. Thank you very much!

It was actually a mix of girl models and some guy models with their own clothes. We created 10 different looks for the models which showcases our upcoming collection soon and also to advertise our online shop Laces and Bows. It was a successful event, thanks to the team who helped me and my sister.

It was also a dream come true because I did the make-up of 3 of the models, I styled them as well, and was the photographer of the show since my sister was super busy with other stuffs during that time. Anyhoo, here are the pics from the fashion show.

Peter Pan goes to Town

I think I’m way too far behind the trend “color blocking”. I’ve seen lots of chictopians rocking their stylish color blocking outfits and it definitely caught my eye. So I decided to give it a try. I chose this orange and teal combination which is just perfect together. I love how both colors pop with each other plus matching it with nude pumps which I’m currently loving. I never thought mixing bold colors would look good together. I remember before, one of my motto is to never mix the colors red and pink together, but damn I was wrong. Haha. Eversince this color blocking trend came, all the colors you can think of will actually work. Hopefully I can show you guys another colorblocking outfit in my future posts.

P.S. I love the collar of this top very much thus the blog title!:))

Welcoming June!

Time flies so fast! It's already June and I think I've done nothing really that productive. I feel that I always have those lazy days when I just wanna stay and relax at home. Hopefully great news will come this June for me.

Say hello to my newest pair of heels! Finally nude pumps! I've been searching for the perfect nude and height plus the price as well. Goodthing Parisian carries one at such a reasonable price. Although it's not that comfy to walk in, there's always a saying "Tiis ganda!"

How was your weekend? Let me know!
Drop me some comments:))

Bangkok Love: Arrival, Food Trip and Shopping

Hai gaiz! Finally I'm back on the track. It's been awhile since my last post and everytime I start a new post, I always mention how I lack updates. So sorry for that. Maybe next time if I can't update that much I'll just blog about great photos.

Anyways, last May 19-23 I was able to go back to the beautiful place of Thailand. It was actually my third time there and the first 2 visits were actually spent touring their beautiful places. This time around, we didn't plan on any tour around Bangkok but rather just shop and food trips.

I love Suvarnabhumi Airport! Very clean and organized. I wouldn't feel lost going around. And it feels really different upon stepping Bangkok soil. I still remember how warm the people in Thailand are. People are very respectful and kind. Not to mention patient as well.

This is the first time I rode on a tuk-tuk. At first I was hesitant to try it because I felt like it would just lose it's balance while on the rode because as what I noticed, the tuk-tuk drivers drive so fast! But I had no choice since it was too far to go to Siam Paragon and Central World from Platinum Mall by feet. Yay! Goodthing we did because the driver rerouted his way choosing a traffic-less way going to the mall.

This is my favorite shopping area in Bangkok - Platinum Mall! It has lots of fashionable clothes, shoes, bags, accessories, and lotsa more! Definitely a haven to all fashionista girls.

I'm definitely gonna miss this Oreo crepe at Platinum Mall foodcourt. It was only 45 Baht and delicious!

Did a little shopping at Forever21. I think it's way bigger than the one in megamall.

While finding our way to the taxi waiting area, my sister grabbed my attention right away when she saw lots of Barbie dolls! There was actually a showcase something of different Barbie dolls plus sale. FYI, I'm a big fan of Barbie dolls and just recently I started to revive my dolls before when I was a younger. Right now I'm more into the collector's item Barbie dolls. Good thing it was on sale and I was able to snag the reproduction version of the 1959 Barbie model.

Etude House Review and Fashion Haul

I have been meaning to visit Etude House for the longest time now, so when I had the chance to visit the mall I stopped by there. At first, I wanted to purchase the EH Lucid Darling lipstick in #05 which is a Barbie pink in color. Unfortunately, it was out of stock. It must be the "it color" girls choose over other colors. I didn't want to settle for another lippy from there because I really wanted that certain color which I read from the web all the awesome reviews.And  I also wanted the Revlon Colorburst lipstick in Baby Pink so I just let go of my eagerness to buy a lipstick at Etude House. I just search the store for another stuffs that I might like. Luckily I found the perfect brow pencil in brown! It was love at first sight because I've been dreaming of a brow pencil in a perfect shade of brown and not to mention it was priced at less than 200php! I also got the Happy Tea time cleansing cold cream in Milk Tea. The saleslady suggested I get the other variant for oily face but I wanted milk for my skin so there I never listened and follow my heart! I've been using this for a week already and my skin loves it! I love the consistency, not to thick and easy to apply and rub on the face. I can see the make-up that is removed from the tissue. I love the smell too. Lastly, I got the Romantic Beauty Stand which is perfect for my new dresser that I ordered (will post pictures soon!). This is where I will probably place my comb, brushes, or my mascaras, brow pencil, etc. Not make-up brushes because they're just gonna collect dust from there. Not so hygienic :(

Happy Tea Time Cold cream's creamy texture contains milk protein to remove dirt and make-up while keeping skin moisturized with the pleasant fragrance of tea

I also visited the department store and got a few stuffs. I got a maxi dress perfect for this summer. A lace top and corset which I have yet to figure out how am gonna style it. A bandeau top and leopard print sunglasses. Then I got a striped top from F&H and laced sleeveless top from Bayo. (sorry seems like I was just enumerating everything!haha).

And yay for another pair of Levi's! And I'm a slight curve! Finally I'd be able to claim my Levi's loop metallic ID soon.

Off to French Baker to have lunch with Mama and brother. I love their Honey roast pork in a L' orange!
