DKNY'S Infinity Dress

I am so fascinated by Donna Karan's The Infinity Dress which is currently being retailed at Neiman Marcus for a whooping $895. If it weren't for the hefty price tag, I'd have said that this would be a perfect addition to my LBD collection. Nonetheless, I lurrve the stylish ways that the simple black dress can be converted into.
It also comes in Red and Ink!

I Need To De-Stress.


Lately, I've had stressors left and right, and if that's not enough they still come up from behind me as if to surprise me! As in, parang silang linta at ayaw nila ako lubayan. I just want a quiet life, at times it seems to me that it's too much to ask. What's worse is there will always be people who think they know you oh-too-well that they judge your actions without asking themselves what they would you if they were put in your shoes.

Sa totoo lang, if I didn't have kids, I'd buy myself a one way ticket to NOWHERE and stay there. Just to get my peace and quiet.

As my father-in-law wisely reminded me, "You Can't Please Everyone." I told him that I don't even bother trying because ever since I can remember, the only person I ever try to please is myself. He told me that I could spend 100 years of my life sleeping and STILL be talked about and JUDGED, because people will always find something to talk about. It's just a matter of how I handle these stressors. He's right.

What better way is there to make myself feel better than to shop?!? BUT I've officially given up credit cards with my new motto, which is: Buy only what you can pay for in cash, if you can't pay for it in cash then it means you can't afford it! Hah! I'm sure this will make my husband's day once he reads this! LOL.

Since we don't have HnM and F21 locally, and there's NO decent place to shop here in Zamboanga, I have no other choice but to window shop (online)! :(

Here's what I'd buy if I had my credit card handy with me. *evil laugh

Tops
Dresses
Skirts

Jumpsuit

Vests



Jackets


Jeans


Headbands

Turban, even!
Sigh! I guess it's a good thing it's taking BPI more than two friggin' months to process my change of name!

I Want.. Right Now.

I never thought I could rock fishnet stockings but ever since I wore them to Jenny's bridal shower, I couldn't get stockings off my mind!

Bright colored plain stockings are not really my thing, but printed ones, I like!!!! I tried buying the printed KT legwear sometime ago but I don't really get lucky with the stocks that are left for purchase.

Me likey these from f21.


At $6.80, definitely much cheaper than Topshop's! But who can send them to me?!? :(

Chace's Baptism Last September.

Such a delayed post, but last September we baptized Carlos Chace as per my father-in-law's request.
It was a very small affair. Just us, our parents, and the ninong- Tabby and ninang-Angel.
Our family picture for the day.
Kuya Kaden.

Congratulations Marvin & Jenny!

Last Sunday, Kaden, his yaya, and I flew to Manila for Jenny's wedding. Jen's the third one in our childhood barkada of 8 to get married, and we're all very excited! Especially me! Planning stage palang, I'm there na! As in all out support! D ba, Jen? :)

Tuesday morning, we were off to Sofitel Hotel for the preps.
Jen's gown and entourage gowns were by Kristel Yulo
Marvin's perfect-fit suit was from Ck and his breathtaking shoes were Prada.
Jen was transformed into a blushing bride by Cherry Pacheco-Uy.
The entourage was made up by Anna & Vida.
Flowers by Teddy Manuel.
Their official photographer is Nelwin Uy. I just took few shots because I know it takes a while before the official photos are released. Nelwin did a great job, I loved their same-day slideshow. I can't wait till the pics are posted. I'm sure they're all so beautiful.
They exchanged vows in the beautiful San Agustin Church in Intramuros.
Her bridal car was a vintage Jaguar Mark V.
Reception followed at the Blue Leaf Pavilion, Fort.
Their very yummy all edible wedding cake was by Alex Franco.
We super enjoyed their PartyPics booth. :)
Before we went home we did some funny but fun camwhoring.
Oh, did I mention that my boy was so cute that day?
Congratulations again, Marvin and Jen! Enjoy married life!

Check out their wedsite.

Sigh! I love weddings! I can't wait for Aaron & Angela's this coming March!
