Meet Wednesday Addams Cousin posted at 11:28 PM
thrifted black jeweled hoop earrings
Lace up wedge from Payless
Black Proenza Schouler bag
I cannot get over
Mia's amazing effect on my skin, I have been wearing minimal makeup and still my skin looks glowing and clear!
I have never worn an all black outfit before so this is a first. I really like the details on my dress and I love that it is sheer and not over the top.
I chose not to pile on a lot of accessories, and only used statement rings which are gorgeous!
My shoes are from Payless and at first I didn't realized that they would actually looked nice on me until my mother asked me to try it on. So I did, and of course, I fell in love.
Bag is a splurge but a worth it investment, the design is a classic.

Flaming Red posted at 12:45 AM
I was cleaning out my closet when i found this little red dress from when I was in high school. It was the time when Rachael Leigh Cook was really popular because of her movie "She's All That"and my then "boyfriend" now my husband, had a HUGE crush on her. I felt I could rock the little red dress myself thinking I had a petite frame just like Rachael, so I bought an almost the same dress from the mall (haha! talk about insecure!) But, I never ended up wearing them and learned that I should never base my style or beliefs on another person's wants even though I really like them.
I'm so glad it still fits me the same way it did before. hihi
The leopard print blouse was from a friend who love animal prints as much as I do. (Hi Liliam!)
I didn't want to wear the dress all by itself since it's day time and a little too sexy for me,
so I used it for cover up.
Gold chain cuff from MANGO
gray pumps from my upcoming collection (stay tuned!)

What's Inside my Makeup Bag posted at 3:16 AM
I have a confession to make: I am a makeup junkie who pretty much doesn't know what I'm doing.
I don't even know how to apply makeup properly except from what I read in beauty magazines and from what I watched in
YouTube tutorials. (by the way, I love Michelle Phan!)
Say hello to my cosmetic bag, its cheap, pink, water proof, very roomy, and I love it! It's a miracle that it can fit my everyday makeup necessities inside!
Here is pretty much what i bring with me everyday!! Yes!! Every single day!! That's why my bag is always heavy! (I'll make a blog of that soon!)
Can you believe it? I actually have 24 Items in my cosmetics bag! Crazy!
But even if they make my bag a lot heavier and bulkier, I just can't leave the house without these!

Okay, first of all, I would like to congratulate my husband for these photos,
in fairness, he's improving. Haha!

I love my pants from Topshop! They are perfect for my petite size and very soft, plus the color is so pretty and it looks very casual and comfy!
I got this feather necklace from Accessorize, i like how it's not too over the top, and can still add appeal to a very simple outfit.
I must admit, this is one of my favorite earrings, from Aldo Accessories.

violet cuff and rings from
Mia Casa,
rainbow colored bangle from Forever 21, assorted gold bangles and bracelets

I obviously gained weight and had my hair trimmed and dyed, so don't judge. Lol

I really should buy a DSLR for outfit posts, any suggestions?
By the way, here are the details of my outfit;
Accessorize gold earrings
Assorted bangles from Forever 21 and
Mia Casa,
Gold studded leather cuff, and Black and Gold bracelet also from
Mia Casa,

Bella Bellarocca: He's still as sweet as a candy! posted at 7:16 PM
So sorry for not having to update my blog! (you can blame the holidays for that.)
Everything is just crazy on this time of the year. Anyway, here is the last part of my blog; Bella Bellarocca!
Bellarocca doesn't have the white sands that Boracay and Bohol has, in fact, the beaches of Marinduque is filled with puka shells.
So when I learned that the beach is going to be a little rocky, I bought Lexi skidsocks, and they were just perfect! I kept saying I bought it online since every person who sees it with her can't help but say "ang cute!! where did you get it?!" lol
the tide was high when we've gotten to the beach, but that didn't stop hubby and Lexi from kayaking. I wanted to go but we all can't fit in the kayak and I don't want to go alone :(
Aren't they cute?? hihi, Law tried kayaking with the friendly manong and almost had gotten to the other island, it was just nearby.
Lexi and I were just watching from the beach
hubby tried windsurfing, it was difficult!! haha! He kept on balancing (and falling)
while holding on to the sail. (you've got to give it to him, he's a great ball player, lol)
I also gave it a shot and couldn't move, lol,
I can balance myself but it was hard for me to hold on to the sail, it was just too heavy for me
The weather wasn't cooperating so we had no choice but to went back to the hotel.
Besides, it was almost dinner time :)
I thought we were going to eat at the hotel restaurant, I didn't know I was in for a surprise!
Law had set up a private dinner for us at the tea room,
when we had gotten there, (candle lights and all) I was asking him, "Is this for us?"
and he just nodded with a sweet smile on his face. I couldn't believe it!
the room was filled with candles and petals, and was surrounded with music. It was romantic!
I was completely blown away that I forgot to take photos,
anyway this was taken after dinner, so it kinda lost it's romantic vibe since Lexi blew out all the candles.
We had a four course meal, and the food was great! (Thank God!)
We started off with Bread & Pumpkin Soup; then Shrimp and Mango Salad for appetizers.
Rib eye and Tenderloin Steak for the main courses,
and Blueberry Cheesecake and Creme Brulee for desserts!
After our meal was served, Law went out for a min and got back with a bouquet of flowers.
(and FYI, Bellarocca doesn't sell flowers, so you can just imagine his efforts, and i loved him for that.)
(aren't they beautiful?)
The cake was also from Lawrence and yes, it tasted as sweet as that moment.
All in all, our trip to the island was unforgettable and fun.
Bellarocca is beautiful and the staff was very friendly.
The rooms are comfortable, spacious and beautiful.
The facilities like the pools, gym, videoke and game room are to die for!
Food was ok, but expensive.
There are lots of activities to do on the island so you can just take your pick
from kayaking to jet skiing to even golf!
and of course, it wouldn't hurt if you have a sweet and thoughtful husband to accompany you :)
THE END
