Entourage Dilemma Case: Happily Closed!

Heyyyy! Remember my post months ago in which I was having a minor-entourage-dilemma breakdown? I was looking for a style for my best friend's wedding and there were tons to choose from online. I posted quite a few styles here, but I decided that this one below was going to be IT for me :)




It's quite straightforward but it's also classy and unique. I like that it has such a unique neckline and the cape was also a lovely touch, don't you think? Plus, the creases on the top will allow me to eat as much during the wedding without looking it. Hahaha!

Well, the wedding happened more than a month ago (hellooo late post!) and I am happy with how my gown turned out. There were a couple of modifications, and more kaartehan touches were put into place that were more flattering for my figure. So after 3 drop-bys at the designer's studio...

 Tadaaaaaaaan!!!!

The designer, Paul Ranier Lim, copied the asymmetrical straps that formed part of the neckline - my fave feature of the dress. But instead of making the bust area straight-cut, he made it sweetheart cut and low back just for that added sexiness and youthfulness. 

I like that he really takes what you want into consideration then gives out recommendations on what would be best for your body. And with three drop-bys? I didn't feel that he was rushing me just to get it over with, but he kept asking me several times whether I feel comfortable in the dress and whether I feel that it fits me just right.

One of the key pieces of the dresses is the belt. The place of the belt, he coined as, "alanganing empire cut" (semi empire cut) because it falls below the usual empire cut but still is an excellent tummy control feature of the dress. Then, instead of giving me a cape, he gave me a longer train, just to be uniformed with all the other members of the entourage. :)

What do you think? :)

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.
