Hmmmm wow it's been a while since I went to the mall and splurge and I really wanted to give myself a treat once again. I remember there is one time that i really shopped till I dropped. Imagine I am alreayd at the mall since monring and I went home in the evening already. I did a shopping marathon where I bought myself a complete wardrobe,.. ahhh I miss that. Right now I am ithcing to go to the mall but I am saving a lot bec. I am going to buy myself a canon lens for my digi photography hobby. I know that it is an expensive hobby that I have chosen but I love taking photos.

Right now I am just browsing online stores for good finds and in no time I know I will be out in the malls again to buy things that I want and desire.

My Wish List

2008-06-26T17:21:00.005+08:00

Arggghhh... I just can't fight myself from window shopping and looking for items that I like. My b-day is coming in many months and I always see to it that I will give myself a treat and have some little shopping. The last gift that i have for myself last Nov. was a Canon Rebel 400d and I am eyeing a new lens for my next bday. I also love to have these items and right now they will go into my wish list.
1. ) I love watches and i can't resist not to put it on my list. I already have silver and gold metal watches so I want to have this FOSSIL leather one this time. This is nice and it goes well when I am wearing jeans or if I am wearing a casual outfit. It has some stones inside and costs around only $75.00 which is good in my pocket.

2.) 28-135mm Canon Lens, which costs around $417 at Amazon .. ahhhh would love to have this !!!!!!!! 3.

Silver Jewelleries

2008-06-26T15:26:00.009+08:00

With so many gold jewelleries already being sold and purchased, I consider it is refreshing to buy Silver Jewellery as an alternative. Not all buyers are keen to gold so they choose to buy silvers. Both are appealing and worth to buy anyway and I myself would like to have one.

There are many online jewellery stores online and I must say to get most of my attention, the store must introduce unique, stylish and quality pieces for me to buy. Many shoppers surely would love one-of- a kind pieces. I happen to stumble upon Key Silver, an online store based in the UK, and their products got hold of my attention. They are actually selling only quality 92.5% silver jewelleries that make them different from others. They are just concentrating on a particular line of product so they can focus on developing it and creating more unique pieces.

I browsed their online collections and picked one from the many Silver Bracelets that they have. This silver beaded bracelet is so eye-catching and indeed this is one of their best sellers. They also sell Silver Pendants and Silver Bangle s (they have nice styles there). Just love this pendant in which they put shell as an added accent.

What makes them unique is that not all pieces will be too identical and it comes in comes in an organza jewel bag when shipped. They also offer free shipping both local (UK) and international.

Coach Wedges

2008-06-26T11:34:00.006+08:00

Wedges are back and they are colorful and playful! I can't remember when these wedges are in fashion but I clearly remember wearing something like this (not coach though). And like they say fashion just keeps coming back just in another form or style. These Coach Wedges are perfect for summer and would look good on you when you are wearing your fave shorts and tee or summer dress. It's just comfy and stylish and would always make heads turn every time you're wearing them. Coach Kerrie Flatforms (top photo) are available at Amazon for $64.99 while Coach Wedge Watercolor is about $159.99. There are many nice styles and colorful wedges at Amazon to choose from.

Everybody Loves Amazon !

2008-06-26T11:14:00.005+08:00

Who on earth doesn't know Amazon.com? I bet they are missing some things in their life if they don't know it hehe. Anyway, they don't just sell books which they are popular about but any items that you would think about. If you want to shop and are looking for toys, electronic gadgets, jewelries, name it you can find it there. You can find a lot of deals and bargains by browsing all their shopping departments. You can also find their best sellers on the site. I can say this is a one-stop shop for us shoppers, we can shop online w/o any hassle and good will be delivered right in front of our doorsteps.

It's Hard to be a Model

2008-06-02T18:46:00.002+08:00

If you think that being a runway model is always glamorous bec. they can wear designer clothes and all, but think again bec. they have one of the hardest jobs in the world. It's even harder when the designer wants you to wear high heeled shoes and walk in a slippery runaway, all you need is to pray that you won't fall.

Silver and Amber Jewelries

2008-05-28T14:15:00.006+08:00

Accessories can add beauty to our wardrobe and I personally love to wear bracelets from gold, with stones or anything that I fancy. Every time I went shopping at the mall mostly in Greenhills, I never fail to stop by the jewelry and stone sections eventhough I will not buy something. I l just love taking a peek at all the different designs and styles of the jewelries that was displayed in the stalls.

Checking for new designs and other unique creations online fancy me too and I just found some nice amber jewelries and I thought it’s nice to share here. I particularly love this amber necklace that seems to have a unique shape and style, not an ordinary piece I can say. SilverMaT Ltd. not only sells high quality and modern amber bracelets but cufflinks, earrings, amber bracelets, rings and even sets of them, so you’ll have many choices. They uses natural Baltic amber and 92.5% sterling silver.

If i were to choose, amber jewelry sets are also perfect to collect and a nice gift as well. I have also learned that Amber stones have also 'healing powers' as believed by the Europeans and they were even called a "lucky stone".

I know there are lots of women out there that love accessories and getting these amber jewelries will go well into your collection.

Tim Gunn's Guide To Style

2008-05-27T14:49:00.001+08:00

I just love this show: Tim Gunn's Guide To Style and I am glad that it is being aired now here in the Philippines at Channel 21. I have watched quite a few episodes and i was deeply thrown in the details that he is telling and advising. Even a fat person can look good and she must only choose the proper underwear and clothes that will compliment her figure eventhough you'll not wear very expensive designer's clothes.

Just one of Tim Gunn's daily Tips:

" Is your outfit more costume than couture? Ask yourself one simple question -- am I wearing the clothes or are the clothes wearing me? If the clothes are wearing you ... save that look for October 31st. "

: I'm a bag addict :

2008-05-26T12:18:00.000+08:00

I went shopping alone yesterday because I am looking for the right bag that will replace my old black bag that I have been using for over a year now. I went to greenhills shopping center but I never found a bag that will suit my taste. All that I see was replicas of branded bag and some bags that I can I see in Divisoria but they are selling it expensive there.

So I went to Robinson's Galleria to look some new styles. I went back to the bags section where I found the bag that was out of stock the last time I went there. Luckily it was available already and it was a JUlia brown bag with 2 pockets in front and sides. What I like about that back is that it is not too small nor too big for my stuff to fit in there. I end up using it immediately after buying it. I went inside the comfort room and put all my stuff there while some women are tying to find out what am I doing. lol

Tyra's Make Up Secrets

2008-05-25T19:06:00.000+08:00

Shopping in the eyes of a 5-year old

2008-05-23T14:31:00.002+08:00

I was so thrilled today bec. I was asking my 5-yr old niece Aidel Reign about shopping and I asked her to draw something for me. And look what made for me, a girl with a handbag and a shopping cart , lol. Soooo cute.

I asked her what's inside her cart and she told me it has comb, lipstick, clothes and shoes.. wow what an early age shopper. But for your information, she really loves slippers and shoes, that she often asks her mom to buy her. And every time she sees me put lipstick, she'll ask permission if she can also try it on.. What a kikay hehehe.

Here is her drawing for me, she also love to draw, wish I was like her when I was at her age.

Fashion Disasters?

2008-05-20T16:19:00.001+08:00

I had a great time viewing all the photos at OMG Photos at Yahoo where they feature celebs who dressed not good and so good . There are celebs who got some nasty comments from yahoo users whom they think are fashion victims. Here are some of them:

Kimmora Lee Simmons being ridiculed over her Rubik's cube inspired dress.

The Olsen sisters showing their fashion statement, look at Mary Kate in her gold dress and what a hair do.. Gosh they are too skinny.

I went shopping in 'SPACE'

2008-05-13T16:30:00.003+08:00

My niece Kukay and I went to the mall on Sunday after having mother's day lunch with my family at a nearby mall in our area. I don't know but every weekend I find it very conducive to shop or just stroll the mall. I have been working one whole week so i reckon it is but nice to unwind and relax for a while at the mall. A simple treat to myself will do to cheer me up and keep me going.

We went to all to almost all the shops in Robinson's Galleria hoping to find a nice blouse and a bag for myself, I have not bought any since I came back home. I saw a nice bag but there is no stock anymore, I don't want to get the display so I end up buying no bag. We went inside Bayo, Plains and Prints, Celine, and more but when i got inside the SPACE shop (2f Robisnons galleria) it is there where i found a nice blouse for myself. I fitted it and I liked it although it's not on my budget range..lol.. Oh well at least I bought something for myself that Sunday.

Learning photography each day

2008-05-10T12:50:00.000+08:00

Now that i have my new Canon 50 mm f1.8 lens for my Canon Rebel XTi cam I have been more inspired to shoot photos each day. I am just adjusting to it bec. it has no zoom so my feet is that one that needs to move front and backwards. I also refrained myself from using the Auto Mode except for fast shooting (where creativity is not needed) and used mostly the Manual Mode.

It's a challenge sometimes but that is the use of having a DSLR, shoot in creative modes or full manual. I know i have many things to learn about my camera and the settings but I know with much practice , I know I can master it.. hehe hopefully.
