Favorite Accessories List :) #04
04. Vintage Heart and Key Long Necklace I bought this necklace when vintage long necklaces were the trendiest fashion pieces. Nope, I was not, and will never be, someone who simply jumps in the fashion bandwagon and follows everyone’s style. I love to create my own, but with a few bits of inspiration from my favorite bloggers and style icons. This was my first purchase from an online...

Favorite Accessories List :) #05
05. Purple Flower Band  This is a gift from my mom. See? She totally knows the things that I love. It’s like #06’s cousin, isn’t it? This one fits my thin wrist perfectly. I love how it does not irritate my exaggeratedly sensitive skin. It goes well with anything, from formal, casual to summer/beach outfits! I usually wear it on its own, but when I’m feeling playful, I...

Favorite Accessories List :) #06
06. Vintage Hair Clip I love everything about this clip. The vintage feel adds a rustic touch to any hairstyle. The butterfly figure is also my signature design/detail together with bows, hearts and stripes. I actually bought this clip because of the butterfly, as I have a fascination for the colorful, winged creatures. They actually inspired the name of my poetry blog, Butterfly Tears....

Favorite Accessories List :) #07
07. Button Bracelet This bracelet is so unique, I’ve never seen anything quite like it. It’s got really cute buttons of different sizes, shades and designs. Also, they never make bracelets of the same design, so my piece is really rare, hehe. I love this bracelet because it is so cute and adorable, I’d practically wear this with anything! It is also well-made, it’s been with me for almost two...

Favorite Accessories List :) #08
08. Bow Scrunchie   I love ribbons/bows so much that I have a lot of them at home. Ever since I was a kid, I have always wanted to have bows everywhere; hence, my notebooks and drawing pads and everything else have bows drawn over them. My addiction to bows grew even stronger when Gossip Girl came into existence, all because of B! I’ve been an avid fan the first time it aired on TV. Anyway, let’s...

Favorite Accessories List :) #09
09. Long Necklace with Colorful Assorted Beads   This accessory staple is my secret trick to making me look taller in my outfits. Perhaps the length of the necklace plus the random glistening/shiny beads makes for an illusion that I have a taller stature? Oooh, maybe this is a magical necklace! ^u^ I can also twist and fold it to convert into a nice choker or shorter necklace, and I could...

Favorite Accessories List :)
Accessories really help in making an outfit work. It can turn boring ones into interesting ones, and could emphasize the overall look you want to achieve, from dainty, preppy and sweet, to edgy, rocker and punk. I personally do not have just one kind of style as I would love to experiment on a lot of looks, but I do have staples so that it won’t take that much time to prepare when I don’t feel...

Looking for Cool Desserts? Try The Icecreamist!
Whenever we head over to Maginhawa St. in Teachers’ Village to grabe a bite, we always take a peek at this futuristic-looking shop at Magiting St. named The Icecreamist.  At first, we did not really know what they were actually selling (of course we knew it could be ice cream, but the interior looks really different that it could be selling something else!) because we usually pass by there...

Buddy's Pancit Lucban and Longganisa
Looking for your regular Filipino food favorites? Well, Buddy’s may have them on the menu, but their food surely tastes more than regular. In fact, because their food is so homey and delightful, we have been coming back whenever we can. Buddy’s features well-loved Filipino dishes from across the country (plus a few other extra food items), but they are well-kown for their Lucban pancit. I rarely...

Review: Etude House Magic Tint Balm
[}o{] Etude House Magic Tint Balm! [}0{] First product review, holla! :D Hahaha. I’ve been using this lip balm for about a month now, and I could say it has been an essential part of my purse. I literally never go out without it! It’s great for quick touch-ups and for instantly brightening up my mood. I found the Magic Tint Balm while I was browsing through their products. Actually, it was just...
