Entourage dilemmas

My best friend texted me last night asking me for suggested necklines/styles of my gown as part of her entourage. Yesss, my friend of 22 years is getting married this year! Waaaaaaah!

Now, just as with any girl who loves to shop, you can just imagine that this excited me. So I did what any 25-year old girl would do when faced with such decision: open Google then type "bridesmaid's gown" in the search box. Haha! So thank you Google creators for making life so much easier for mankind. We are forever indebted to your ingenuity.

So now I'm scouring through tons of styles... and half an hour later, I am still searching for the ONE dress that I'll use as peg... Well, THIS apparently was not such an easy task to take on because there are so many choices! Izzz craaazy!




I just wanted something simple, but not blah either. I wanted something classy that I will not cringe upon seeing my photos 10 years from now, but I also wanted something fitting for my age -- in short, not old-fashioned.

Hmmm.. So here, I present to you, some of my favorites:

Asymmetrical sweetheart neckline with floral accent. 
Cute right? Although I think the neckline is a little low? :D


Something goddess-y, my only worry with this is that I might look like a walking drape! Yikes! But it's nice, and so flowy! I can just stuff my face and not worry about sucking in my tummy for photo ops! Oo, naisip ko talaga yun!


I have always been partial with halter. Thus, this choice. It's also pretty young-looking and it exudes that air of high fashion, eh? Or maybe it's just the model, I should look like that, fierce! :)

Thick-strapped empire cut dress. Classy and a little sexy.


Nude sweetheart cut cocktail dress. Since I don't have a fair complexion, I think the color drew me in with this one. But since we'll be wearing pink... Maybe the next one will look better...

This is my top fave so far. It's unique, simple and elegant :)

I'm going to scour some more :) But here's an article on how to dress for your body type. I hope this helps you especially if you're going to a formal event soon:


Cheers!

So You Had a Bad Day

Last Friday, I caught myself getting irritated by the second as I get one bad update after the next at work - confirming either low performance for the month or delay in our campaign activities. I just wanted nothing more but to call it a day and go home...  But since that wasn't an option, I just watched a movie (yup on my own :P) and stuffed my mouth with Taters potato chips (cheese flavor!) and Jamaican pattie (cheesy beef!) later that afternoon. Yup, that made me feel a little better after! We all go through this kind of day, and so soon after ringing in the new year with our hopes and goals too!  Tsktsk! So as I dragged myself to take on the hours that day, I knew that I had to snap out of it and be wary, lest I find myself stuck in the limbo of the daily activities.

Japan: Lit Gardens & Shrines in Kyoto + Japan Travel Tips

On our 3rd day, we went to Kyoto! We bought a one-day Keihan railway pass since Kyoto is about an hour away from Osaka. There are different ways to get to Kyoto but the cheapest and fastest is by train. Taxis are very expensive in Japan! Buses and trains are just about the same price so you can plot your way to this famous spot either way. Fushimi Inari Shrine

Getting Beach-Ready with Wink!

Beach! That is what my mind seems to be saying these days, and on Friday we will be flying to a much-loved beach in Visayas (more about that soon). Finally! The sun and the seas! :D But before we don our swimwear and flip-flops, my friend and I made sure to get our skin beach-ready first. So just last Saturday, we went to Wink Laser & Wax Studio to get our waxing fix. We both have had experience in waxing, shaving and plucking so I think it was a great way to try what Wink has to offer differently in the market. Because we already have something to compare it with, we hope to bring something that will break it down into specifics, not just with the service but with the products and the  ambiance  as well. Hygiene is number 1 One thing worth remembering about Wink is its priority on cleanliness. Holly Chang, the young entrepreneur behind this budding business, is a self-proclaimed OC.
