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!

Passionately Curious

Here is the post I wrote years ago! I echoed here what I learned from the 2 speakers, Tricia Gosingtian and Ana Santos. Tricia is a fashion blogger, so there's a part of the event in which we all had to pick out and model the outfits from Bayo then Tricia picked out winners from the attendees. So the event started with that then went into the specifics of fashion blogging then writing in general. :) Hope you'll pick up a few writing nuggets! Happy reading and writing!

It's Perfectly Fine Not to Say Anything

Last weekend, we went to this Starbucks branch in Tagaytay and it was really lovely. It was situated below a steep driveway, and unless you know where to look, it would be quite easy to miss. But it's a spacious lot -- with glass doors, paintings, couches, benches and wooden architecture -- it may just be my favorite Starbucks by far.

Ligawan Stage So this is the part where Dennis already laid down his intentions, and I said yes to courtship.  I’ll share here the things we learned and what God taught us during this season. Hope this encourages you! Dennis told me to share his insecurities in this blog because he thought that it would encourage the men out there. Some of his insecurities were:
