Have a Very Merry Christmas!

Heeeyyyy friends!!! I just want to greet you all a Merry Christmas and show my appreciation and love to all of you for continuously supporting and being with me in my journey through my blog. I know that my family's Christmas won't be the same again with the recent loss of our grandfather but despite of it I know and I always keep in mind that he's now in his best condition in heaven. Above all I'm still happy to be celebrating this day with some of my relatives and friends who are with me today until NYE. I'm already excited to start a new year with new hopes and new things to look forward to!

*Bringing you more Christmas photos that Paulo and I took in Bag of Beans in Tagaytay and Acienda Fashion Outlet in Cavite. 

This day was actually a celebration of our 14th monthsary/ Christmas celebration together. It was a great choice to choose Bag of Beans because there were few people when we went to the place. It's a rare sight for us because everytime we pass by that place before there were literally a lot of people eating there. 

Outfit: Wearing a Tie neck flounce bounce top and Corduroy Skirt both from Shein

We also went to Acienda Fashion Outlet. It's the most hyped and talked about place lately and we were both eager to see what the hype was all about. Paulo and I were both disappointed with what we saw. There were I think only 5 or 6 stores opened and the rest were all closed. :( Nonetheless, we just enjoyed the place by taking some pictures. 

Merry Christmas everyone! I hope that your Christmas is the happiest and may you spend it with full smiles on your faces! :)

Bloggers United 16 x Grace Karin

I finally got to attend a Bloggers United event again after being completely MIA for the past 2 BU installments. It always excites me to  attend one not only because I'll see my favorite bloggers but because I'm excited to see what they have to offer to us! Aside from that BU was held on the same week of World Bazaar Festival in World Trade Center so it's a win-win thing for me- shop some blogger items & shop items from the bazaar!! :) Going to BU was quite an experience! We were caught in a heavy traffic and it almost took us 3 hours and 30 minutes to arrive in the venue. We first went to BU. We were greeted by new faces (not only fashion bloggers but also makeup vloggers!!) whom I'm not really familiar with. I was able to score really good items for reasonable prices plus some pictures with my favorite bloggers. After BU, Paulo and I decided to have our lunch where the World Trade Bazaar is located. A huge crazy crowd plus tons of random items that were being sold greeted us in Hall D!!! I was able to score some "papasko" for my younger boy cousins as well as cute random items that caught my heart eyes!!! You'll see me using it in my next posts! :)

Look who I bumped into!!! My elementary bff! Haha! At sa BU pa talaga kami ulit magpapangita. We were both at Vern and Verniece's booth so we decided to have our picture taken with them. I have smelled the scent of "Vern" perfume by VV&Co and it smells really good! I once thought that it doesn't justify the price of that small bottle but after I sprayed and tried it, I honestly couldn't get over the scent. It's not the average one plus with 2 sprays it lasted longer than what I expected. Matipid sya. :)

All thanks to this man for being with me the whole day! It was another memorable experience with you. Thank you for your patience, love! :)  

Outfit. This dress came just in time for BU. My ideal outfit for the bazaar was a hassle free, light and easy to move in dress where I will feel comfortable and relaxed even with all the commuting, walking and a lot of bumping (because there are tons of people shopping). Good thing this dress from Grace Karin came days before BU. I love the item material (cotton) used as well as the retro summer vibes it brings! I didn't expected that I'll still be in theme for this year's Retro themed BU! I had this repaired before BU because it was a few inches long. All in all, I love this dress and you will still see me wearing and styling it in other events and occasions.

Thanks Grace Karin for my dress! See you in my next posts! :)

Jeulia Ladies Bridal Ring Set

Hey guys! Christmas is just around the corner and I can really feel it with the busy streets, mall crowd, night lights and TRAFFIC! Haha! A lot of people are trying their knot and ringing their bells this Christmas or nearly after New Year. I actually have one to attend to already next year February! Guess what? I’ll be a bridesmaid again to my ninong’s wedding!!! And if given the chance to help my future ninang with all the preparations on her wedding I’ll be more than willing to recommend her a jewelry shop that I know named Jeulia. Jeulia is a Hong Kong based jewelry shop that showcases a lot of jewelries- rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings and even charms!

To all the bride to be ladies that are currently reading my blog, you’re surely lucky to be here for an exciting announcement! Jeulia is currently having its Christmas SALE of around 20%--50% on some selected items from the category of bridal ring sets- engagement rings, wedding ring for the bride and wedding ring for the groom!

They also have vintage bridal sets and sterling silver bridal sets that you should check out. Each rings are well curated and are custom made to evoke the personality and emotion of the buyer. If I were to help my ninang in choosing her wedding ring I would probably suggest these following rings to her:

Classic Round Cut Sterling Silver Ring Set

Halo Cushion Cut Sterling Silver Ring Set

Modern Asscher Cut Interchangeable Sterling Silver Ring Set

Irregular Round Cut Sterling Silver Ring Set

All these rings that I’ve chosen have one thing in common- they are all classy and elegant. It’s not too thick and it doesn’t have too much stones. If you have the same taste as mine you may want to consider these rings in choosing your own! If not, you can visit Jeulia’s website and see the rings for your own!

Advance Merry Christmas everyone!

A minute before dusk

Hello December!!! We're finally down to my favorite month! I don't know if it's just me or it's everyone's favorite month because it marks the official start of the holidays! Aside from that we're only down to our last 10 days in school for this semester! Ahhh, I'm so excited!!! But apart from being excited that I'm going to end one semester again lol I'm happy to have reached and accomplished most of my goals this 2018. Even though this year have been tough and the most stressful for me (sign of adulting???) this year also brought the best in me in facing my anxieties and lowest. I'm grateful for all the people that I met, for all the people who helped and supported me, for all the people who never changed and for all the people who stayed. I'm closing this year full of learnings and unforgettable experiences and hoping to open a new year of more opportunities and room for growth. 

Outfit. It felt like I've been celebrating my birthday every week for like 2 months already because of the international packages that I was receiving. This skirt that I'm wearing is my latest order from Shein. I purposely got this black skirt because I want to complete all the colors of the maxi skirts from their site! I now have it in colors pink, silver, green, red and finally in black! :) This skirt is versatile. It goes well with anything- whether you want to dress down or use it as a formal wear. This will definitely be overused because I'm reserving this skirt already for an event next year February.

If you want to purchase this skirt you can have it for only $31 or you can visit Shein's website for more details. Here's an extra 15% off treat for you when you purchase any items from Shein's site. Just use the coupon code: missdr15 upon check out. :) 

Still, nothing beats the most beautiful sunset I've ever seen- home.
