Im a face product addict and this photograph is evidence of it. Believe me, I've tried everything from La Prairie, Lancome, Skinceuticals to all the pharmaceuticals ointments sold in the chemist. Over the years, I've pretty much stuck with Avene and Dermalogica though because my skin is hypersensitive and these two brands are perfect since they offer products that are non-comedogenic, fragrance-free and dermatologically tested. Ocassionally, I also use Mario Badescu if I get a spot (Drying Lotion) or Aloe Vera Gel.

Obviously, I don't use everything everyday.

If I did, I would never manage to leave the apartment.

PS. Dont forget to leave your links either here or on the post before this! :D

Aranaz for Rags to Riches full rosette clutch


I'm wearing one of my favorite thrift finds and I was finally able to wear these pants out.
I adore the shape and guess what? It was only 200 baht in Bangkok! That's like P300 or $6

All the rain proves that summer is really over :( But that does not mean it's the end of
my days as a bum..because there 4 more days til I leave for anothe vacation!!!
SF and NY, here I come! I can't wait.

PS. Can someone please tell me what the weather
would be like in both SF and NY by the end of May????

Lazy Daze

A bit of a blah outfit to match the very blah state i am in right now.

I've been living in this grey t-shirt and black bandage skirt the entire week because I've been stuck indoors revising for the dreaded exams I have to take on wednesday.
At this point I'm just hoping for two things:
1) that feminism/postcolonialism comes up in the essay questions and
2)that my 50+ year old ancient professor who I have a legit crush on won't proctor for the exams.
(i. need. to. concentrate.)

*PS. exciting news: i am now the proud owner of a lumix camera! i cant wait for june (when i get back to manille) so i can finally use it and say bye to gross photos forever.

Blogged about this collection inspired by the 'Way of the World' ages ago!
The collection was stunning on stage.

Highlight of the night:
Adonis.
He sat across me.

Sisa

brandless top, printed skirt from BKK, Aldo shoes, Aranaz bag, beaded necklace

There's something about drop shouldered tops that I ALWAYS associated with Sisa's character from Noli Me Tangere. I guess that's how I always assumed Crispin and Basilio's mother to look like after she goes crazy because she loses her sons. Along with a long skirt, dirt on her face and long messy tangled hair.

Who knew Noli Me Tangere characters could be so inspiring?

May Flowers

Hey You! Add us on BlogLovin'


neon floral dress which I knotted and studded heels from BKK, thrifted denim vest

Because meddling with scripts, graphics and layouts is my way of kicking back and relaxing, I spent yesterday night changing the layout. (See..I told you guys I'm a fashion loving geek!)
What do you guys think of the new look??? I hope you guys like it!

Oh and guess what everyone? I'll be heading to both San Francisco and New York in 2 weeks!
I'm DYING of excitement! I haven't been to New York in 2 years, San Francisco in 4! I'm definitely looking forward to seeing all my friends and family who live there.

Do you guys have any suggestions on places I should check out?
Great restaurants? Unique shops? Markets? Cheap thrift stores!

To everyone who left me comments on my last post...Thanks! The shoes are originally from Zara
