Throw back Thursday

1
Since today is Thursday, here is my 1st "Throw back Thursday" contribution. During our younger days, we all have group of friends that we cherished and one of them is our neighborhood friends. I'm not referring to Spider man who's known as "our friendly neighborhood" but I'm referring to "Kababata Friends". I remember that when you have group, the first thing you do is to think of a group's name and this wall reminds me of it. 



VJ DINO stands for our first initial letter of our names (Val, Jullee, Dimple, Ina, Nyke and Olive). In order for us to remember our group, we imprinted it at the wall of our neighborhood. Good thing our neighborhood did not punished us for doing it in their property. I remember we use to meet up at Val's house in the afternoon just to eat dukot rice and bulad. We also collect our neighbor's news papers, sell it at junk shop and treat our selves at the mall. We also did camping at Val's back yard para camping-camping ang peg but we still end up sleeping at their living room for the reasons that forgot already because it's almost 24 years ago and there are lots of thing that happened already. These are just few memories that I remember when I saw this wall. Moving on, before I end here is my outfit post using one of my favorite Aztec top from Forever 21. If you follow my previews post, you will notice that I'm into Aztec prints here and here. Yup! I love Aztec prints.







Top: Forever 21
Pants: Forever 21
Sandals: Solemate

Happy Thursday Everybody! =)

Hi everybody! Last May 3, 2013 I attended Davao Bloggers Induction Ceremony and Acquaintance Party at Krispy Kreme SM Lanang Premier, Davao City. The night is loaded with information about the Davao Bloggers history, do's and don'ts and the exciting upcoming events for this year. My tummy was filled with sweet treats form Krispy Kreme doughnuts and cupcakes. During the event new members are inducted as official members of Davao Bloggers (proud member here! *hand up & smile). We also did fun games where everybody participated and enjoyed. There was raffles too sponsored by Smart, Sun Cellular, Canon Marketing Philippines Inc. and Maxima Aquafun Beach resort which is lucky me, I won 2 tickets! Yey!

Carmex on the go!

0
Lip balm is a must have! This is what I always say when I was asked what beauty essentials you always bring with you. My lip is my first priority when it comes to beauty essentials. I feel naked when not wearing tint at my lips. This feeling started when I was in college. We all know college is the stage where ladies enhance their beauty rituals. Like me, my lips get dry and chap easily. When your lips are chapped, you will look haggard and we don't want that to happen, right girl?! Good thing lip balm is invented and there is one brand that lessens the roughness of dry lips. 

Presenting 
Carmex Lip Balm



Carmex lip balm is invented by Alfred Woelbring in the USA in early 1930s. It is a formula that keeps your lips soft, moisturize and relive from roughness. They have jar type, tube & click stick container which I like because I can easily put it inside my glam kit (view previous post here). What I love about this lip balm is that it has a menthol effect that heals my dry and chapped lip. It also have SPF 15 that protects lips from the heat of the sun. But wait there's more, Carmex named #1 Top Pharmacist-Recommended Lip Balm for 14 years and the product is not tested on animals.




Carmex lip balm is also available in original, strawberry, cherry, lime twist, vanilla and pomegranate perfect for this coming school season.




For more information about  this cool healing lip balm, visit their web site here, like their facebook here and get updated with their twitter here.

How I wear my Bunt Cake Skirt?

0

Dress: Forever 21
Skirt: Gift from a friend (Thanks Maureen Payoyo)
Shoes: Solemates

I'm having a hard time thinking of how I can wear a Bunt Cake type skirt (A.K.A Semi-Circular skirt) without emphasizing my belly. I've been scanning a lot of fashion magazine and searching images at the net looking for the right answer. And finally! I came up with combining two items. The LBD (Little Black Dress) and the Bunt Cake type skirt. 

Bunt Cake Skirt looks like this. But mine is just semi lang.
You're probably thinking "Where's the LBD here?" Actually, I layered the dress with the skirt so you won't see the dress at it is. Just make sure your LBD is a body hug type so your belly will be tighten and must be shorter than the length of the skirt so it won't show up. Like this.



What's good thing about this skirt is it has garter on the waist line so it will hold up and voluntary adjust after a meal.





I hope this simple quick guide will help you.

Leave a comment and let me know how you wear your Bunt Cake Skirt.

Until next post!


-XOXO-

What's inside my glam kit?

0

Saturday means no work for me. I'm just feeling the vibes of being home buddy this morning. But what I love most during this day is that I can do whatever I want like eating  my breakfast, chatting with my daughter and nephews, watching my fave vlogger on youtube, scrolling networking sites (facebook and twitter), editing photos before posting and constructing blog post without minding what time is it. Too much for a day, right?! Ganyan talaga pagmay trabaho ka during weekdays. You make sulit of your time during weekends. Moving on, to make sulit of my day, I'm going to share with you "What's inside my glam kit?" 

I brought this native glam kit at Pasalubong Center here in Davao City. 
Combination of white & gold native weave material.




 To hide oily face after a long day, I use Pressed Powder #2 Medium shade by BYS.



 The Matte Factor Deep Red lip paint by Miners that stay almost 6hr. on my lips. 
Thanks to my friend Heidi for giving me this. I'm planning to have their Hot & Light Pink shade for day time lip paint.
  

Lip balm is a must have for me. I have here Carmex Origianl Flavor stick lip balm that helps relief my dry chapped lips. It soothe, moisturize and has menthol effect that heals your chapped lips too. Thanks to Ria Abella Jose and Carmex Philippines for giving stick tube and jar type lip balm.

Carmex  also have different flavors like strawberry, cherry, lime twist, vanilla and pomegranate. What's good thing about this is it has Sunscreen SPF 15 that protects your lips from the heat of the sun. For more good stuff about this cool lip balm, go check and visit their facebook here.


 This one is a capsule type perfume container from Penshoppe. No need to bring your gigantic expensive perfume. Just transfer it to a small container like what I did here. It's handy and easy to carry everyday and during long travels.

Stay fresh breath all day with this cute Astringosol mouthwash container. 
And when I'm feeling dizzy, I have this Five Cranes Menthol. It's a cone type ointment 
that helps relieve headaches.

Thanks to hair pins, clips, elastic bands & metal twister hair holder.
It saves me during bad hair days.

So that's it! That's all inside my glam kit.

What's inside your? Share it  here. 
I love to read your comments.
