In case you didn't know, I have a penchant for keeping ribbons, shopping bags, paper bags and pretty gift wrapping papers so you can just imagine the stash I collected last Christmas. I hate putting into waste reusable papers so I try to 'save' all that I can whenever I open gifts. (You can read about my past projects on re-used shopping and paper bags HERE and ... READ MORE
My Do-It-Yourself (DIY) Tea Party
I had always wanted to host a tea party at home, and was all the more inspired after AJ treated me to an afternoon tea at Manila Peninsula last August. But I was so busy at work and was doing all those traveling I just couldn't put my mind and time into it. But I found my perfect opportunity when my friend (and kumare) Denise sent me a message one day asking when are we ... READ MORE
Hello Kitty London x Marks and Spencer
My happy purchase last weekend: It's a Hello Kitty body spray from Marks and Spencer! A bit pricey at P395.00 for a scent that lasts for only half a day but who cares?

Butterfly Perfume
I got to chose my birthday gift from AJ last weekend and it's none other than the Butterfly Eau de Toilette from Marks and Spencer!

It comes in a pretty round bottle in apple green shade, with a very ... READ MORE

I used to hoard Nine West, Enzo Angiolini and Aerosoles shoes especially when they're on sale. I soon realized that I own so many and of the same style that I decided to sell ... READ MORE
Sweet Gifts for Christmas
Christmas is that time of the year where we receive the most number of C's - cookies, cakes, chocolates and candies. All sweet food! And we love receiving them, right? Unfortunately for me, I am not a sweet-tooth person but I do crave for one once in a while. On the other hand, AJ loves sweets. But I do appreciate good dessert food (as long as it's not sugary sweet) ... READ MORE
Sunday Shopping at SM
I always look forward to the month of September not only because it is the start of the countdown to Christmas, but because different establishments hold their last big sale for the year in this month. We were actually looking forward to checking out 3 sale events this week: S&R's Members' Treat, the Book Fair at SMX and the Warehouse Sale of SM Homeworld at Megatrade ... READ MORE
