Hi! 

Someone informed me that some unscrupulous online sellers are using my photos to scam other people. Please be warned that I don't sell online stuff especially branded bags. These bags for my own personal collection. 

If you have found any of my photos online kindly inform me through my Facebook fan page. 

Thanks

Alright, guys, girls and gays! I have made my very first purchase of a Louis Vuitton bag. This is a very exciting entry. I hope you are as enthusiastic as me as I write down my experience shopping for my very first LV. You might want to check out how to spot a fake Louis Vuitton here.

Here is a little trivia... I started my blog in 2008 with a post about Louis Vuitton Eva Clutch. Now, three years later I still have not bought an Eva Clutch. BUT I got an LV Monogram Canvas Tivoli GM (M40144) instead. For me, it is a better choice. Thanks to the keen eye of DH who spotted the bag straight out of the show room.

You all know I went to Hong Kong. I have been there several times but it was only in our recent trip that the itinerary was purely shopping! Yes, you read that right... S-H-O-P-P-I-N-G ; p

I am so excited about this new feature post I am working on my blog. I have been thinking for such a long time to feature ordinary people and their fashion sense. I had actually done it before like my fashionista blog posts but right now I am upping the ante by adding their tote bag as well! Wouldn't it be nice to know what kikay girls these days are carrying with them as they explore the city?

May I present to you my DS as my guinea pig hehe

dress: Taiwan, shoes: Aerosoles

Essilor Transitions lenses

And so, I shifted from plastic to metal frame. That wasn't a very wise choice but what the heck! My quest to get in the fashion circle proves to be not practical at all lol Fashion before anything else ; p

Essilor Transitions lenses PhP4, 800

And so for the big reveal... I got Transitions lenses from Essilor, makers of Varilux (progressive lens), Nikon and Crizal Alize Coating (double coating used for the lens)! My lenses are more expensive than my Baby Phat eyeglass frame. Eeer, DH told me that I am nuts! And that I should not have picked out the tiniest frame. Transferring the lenses to another eyeglass frame in the future is now out of the question. Sometimes, I think I am not thinking. I may be indecisive at times but I like to think it through first. But in occasions like this, I am always dumbfounded! But I have no regrets getting Transitions lenses.

Celebrating birthday at Sofitel

My visit: October 19, 2010

It was a rainy day and I was wearing my Ondoy dress. I was crossing my fingers that what happened last year would not happen again. I had reserved a 7:30 pm table for 2. Rain kept pouring on our way to the venue. We were expecting heavy traffic but the trip lasted under one hour. Maybe many folks opted to stay at home yesterday... well and good for us ; )

Happy Birthday!!!

At 6 pm, we were seated comfortably in a couch by the window. Dinner buffet was not served until 6:30 pm.

If you are a follower of my blog, you would have noticed that I have been sporting new eyeglasses in recent events that I have attended. I bought it from a very reliable optical shop, Ideal Vision Center. It was my mom who first started buying contact lenses and eye glasses from Ideal Vision Center's branch in Quiapo. Now, with so many branches, we go to a branch nearest our place. 

It was Doc Michelle Q. who did my eye test. Thank God, I have the same grade for the past 10 years or so. She is knowledgeable in my queries about the different type of lens. My choices of lens are the ordinary PhP300, anti-glare PhP1, 200 and the transition lens PhP4, 800 which I will have to discuss in another post. You will know then what I ended up with haha

Like a catwoman's eye

Nice, huh? It's just exactly what I am looking for... like a cat woman's eye. When I saw it in Crossings, Shangri-la Mall, I didn't think twice especially when I saw how much it is hehe You know me I am  cheapskate. Now, all I need to do is to have the lens change at the Executive Optical in Greenhills and I am all set.
