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!

Bridal Shower Ideas

Hey pretty ladies! Throwing a bridal shower for your dear friend soon? Here are some ideas that you may want to explore :)

i love You

Just sneaking in a post to share how God has been good to me all my life :) Somehow, no matter how much I try or anyone tries, I haven't felt loved and I couldn't love the way God loves me. When I talk to people and I try to describe God's love, every analogy falls short... simply because His love is just so much more intense and it's unconditional. For this post, I want to share the role that love plays in allowing God to be the Lord of my life. :) When we talk about Lordship, it usually entails a sharp intake of breath and begrudgingly opening our hands to release something that we have held on for too long... but Lordship can also be a natural response to what is already made complete in us. Lordship, at its best, is an expression of love. :)

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.
