Summer Dresses

I remember Ma saying I should avoid wearing long dresses because it'll make me look shorter. I say... "It's okay, Mama!" Hahaha! Bought this from Kikay in Greenbelt 1, together with the necklace. Shades from Dorothy Perkins. And I wore my comfy, nude Havaianas.

Sharing some of our pictures from our recently-concluded trip in Ilocos. My company celebrated our 10th year anniversary. :)

The Red & Blue Combo

This blue dress is brought to you by Iora. My fab red shoes? From a stall at the last Cuenca Bazaar. :)

Yes, I have eyebags. Hahaha! Anyway, showing off my pearl necklace from this accessories store in SM Southmall. I am so bad at remembering names!

For that girly-girl effect, pearls are the way to go. Tied my hair in a bun to complete the whole look.

A Jersey Dress

I love the length of this jersey dress that I bought from a Korean shop here in BF sometime ago. That's why I'm excited to go to Korea! If they have tons of dresses like these, I'll be in shopping heaven!

Wore it with my favorite Abby Jocson necklace, that my Client refers to as a "fiesta".  Since this is a major headturner already, just wore my gold Michael Kors watch.

Shoes by Charles and Keith. Super old already but I love the garterized straps!

Plain, White T-Shirt

I believe every woman should have a plain white shirt. Wear a skirt with it... jeans... or in my case, these super comfy capri pants that I bought from Mango ages ago.

I have three plain white shirts that I absolutely love. The key here is that it should not be too body-hugging or plunging. This one I'm wearing is from Forever 21. Bought this on one of my Singapore trips. Bought one just recently from Mango in Alabang Town Center.

And also, every woman MUST have a scarf. This floral-printed one is my favorite. It puts a little more flavor to any outfit.

This is my laid back travel ensemble when I went to Bicol with my husband last weekend. :)

White shirt from Forever 21, Pants from Mango, Brown Belt from TopShop, Animal-printed sandals from Steve Madden, Rolex watch, my Charriol bracelet combined with pink H&M bracelets (a gift from my college friend)

The Day I Said, "I Do".

In my entire existence, this has got to be the most BEAUTIFUL gown I have ever worn... a work of art by my wonderful friends, Sunshine and Van Lim. And this amazing shot was captured by one genius of a photographer and my good friend, Dusko Almosa.

My eyes are beaming with joy. And thanks to my fabulous make up artist, Lee Figueroa, I looked every bit a "blushing bride" (heehee). Dusko worked his magic here again! This was indeed the happiest day of my life!

I love you, Mac. I am yours forever.

Stripes and Prints

Excuse my "wasted" look. I had a pretty busy day.

Last week, I used my Zara gift card my college best friend, Antoi, gave me for Christmas. Here's a 'just-released' Peter Pan collared see-thru top that I swiped using the said card.

I super love it! I plan on pairing it with shorts next time.

But today, opted to pair it with a striped pencil cut skirt, with a green gartered band as accent (it's part of the skirt).

Love the "printed top and striped skirt combo". :)

Adjusted the colors a bit so you can appreciate it more. I super love the printed top!

"Garterized" Charles and Keith shoes. Yup, I still have my orange polish on. :)

I Love Color Blocking!

This is a long overdue post, but I was able to get the pictures just today. :)

Last 20 December 2011, my company celebrated our Christmas Party at Ysabel's Garden in Las Pinas City. It was a super, duper fun night and seeing the pictures made me laugh so hard all over again.

Anyway, I loved my outfit that night. We asked everyone to come in formal attire. I was wearing a blue dress (once again by Copper (Note: They should already make me their model!)) and bloody red shoes that I bought from a stall at the Cuenca Bazaar. Unfortunately, I forgot the name of the store! :( Necklace by Abby Jocson. Hair and Make Up by Ruben of Princess Carol in BF.

Check me out in the first picture. Yes, I am jumping out of the photo with my blue and red combo!

TEAM BRAINBEAM during our Christmas Party last year: (L - R) Our Admin Officer Tetet Ambulo, Administrative Director Manuel Lee, our Company Messenger Jeff Cabantog, "the fiance", Account Manager Mona Astete, Senior Account Executive Amanda Mandanas, our Bookkeeper Judith Rivo, Account Executive Don Espiritu and our Company Driver "Congressman" Obet Navasca
