Fontilea Manila

So I finally got to test run a few pieces from Ais' line, Fontilea Manila!

Pardon the cover up-wearing-selfies to follow. I asked Achi and Mhe to take the photos to show how the kimono fits.

Ang hirap magpose, I'm hardly a natural at this. Haha! So bear with me and please focus on the kimonos --how it fits -- and imagine ways of wearing it :)




Versatility, style, wearability - check!

Congrats Ais!


Florence Blue cover up
What I loved about this is how I can imagine wearing this in the office then turn it into an outfit fitting for a night out with friends . For the 8am-5pm wear, I can just change my shoes to pumps, don pearl earrings and a classy tote bag, and voila! I am ready for the corporate world! An outfit after office hours is what the one above looks like: sexy wedges, textured clutch, dangling earrings, and maybe a daring red lipstick to match my red nail polish, and I am ready for a night out with my best buddies!

The front pockets were also a good touch, don't you think? ;)

 I like that this cover up looks classy and polished from all angles. :) So I held my hair up with a good old-fashioned clamp to direct the attention to the cut and details of the cover up.



Francisca Red Flowy Cover
For this one, I wore it with a tight-fit blank tank top and jeggings. I let my hair down for this one for a more loose and carefree look. Since the cover up was flowy, I wanted everything to have that free-flowing vibe too.







What do you think? Can you think of other ways to wear these? I bet you're imagining the accessories, belts, etc. that would make the cover ups more stylish and fashion-forward.

Fontilea Manila will be coming out with their first collection next week! There are more from where this came from :) Wheeee!

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 :)

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
