Geek chic

I think this costume has to be the easiest and comfiest costume I've ever had. Took five minutes and I wasn't teetering in heels all night! It was a lot more fun going around without feeling the pinch from heels, plus I got to let out my inner geek haha

went to Vudu's annual Halloween party, the place was packed with all kinds of people and erm..creatures haha







and the day before that, we got to see social network, great movie! but more on that later haha

grey sweater from Zara, random cutoffs(not seen), shoes from HK, Balenciaga bag, giant pearl baubles from Accessorize


how was your Halloween?

bisous!

frenchie love

haven't been posting much, I've been busy as a bee. Although working at home means you can work in your pajamas (which is the best part, dont you think?),  it's not very photo worthy. haha

took a quick quick break from work (hence the hurriedly put on outfit and retarded expression) to go out for some take out and bank errands, I feel like a grown up already!


cropped top from Bkk, random denim cutoffs, cotton on flats, grey jersey scarf, topshop glasses, balenciaga bag
and to redeem myself and my lack of posts, I give you a family of frenchies!





Bisous!

Galleon Andalucia! galleons of fun! (yes, i did that on purpose)

Got to see Galleon Andalucia the other day, right before it left for Mactan. It was quite a feat, the storm was strong as ever and it left the ground all muddy and slippery. The extra long lines weren't helping either.  Plus they told us we couldn't go inside the boat anymore because the rain made the floor so slippery, but with a little bit of luck, and a tiny bit of negotiating, the lovely boatmen, and women, gave us a private tour of Andalucia!

Thank you Jose for allowing us to see Galleon Andalucia and Andrea for giving us the tour, you guys were wonderful!












also, this week has been pretty hectic. I've been juggling a lot of projects all at once, apologies for the lack of posts. That's also the reason why I'm putting up a lot of pictures and typing so little, I am exhausted! Will make up for it, je promets!

off to bed!

Preview's 15th Anniversary Party!

late late post! been very busy, and I'm doing this now because I'm procrastinating preparing myself for non-stop work. heeee

anyhooo

It was Preview's 15th Anniversary last Saturday and a celebration was in order! We all had to come in crystal inspired ensembles, it was a bit difficult looking for something crystal, I personally don't wear a lot of 'em, but it turned out pretty well, thanks to my sister's closet.

The night started with drinks at Maya and then the party in Penthouse. It was packed with so much people!

Met a lot of wonderful people and saw some good friends as well. I just wanna give a big big thank you and congratulations to Preview, of course, Cybill and Kaye of A- List Possibilities, Mikey and Edwin for throwing a wonderful party! Had tons of fun!



I wore a crystal head chain( i made myself), WJ tank,Supre sparkle skirt, shoes from Tokyo (not seen in the photo) Alexander Wang bag (All my sisters! haha)



and this sick cut out vest (which I share it with my sister too haha) from Bkk! Isn't it awesome?


Cocktails at Maya





awesome food

the cutest and tastiest burgers




 Penthouse for the party, the place was decked out in crystals and was packed!



saw fellow blogger, Paolo of What Paolo Writes and his siblings. He also won best dressed male by the way, congratulations! Jealous of your new camera! haha





saw my good friends Bianca and Cristy, I missed you guys! 



back to work!

Bisous!

totally random



Rewarded myself with pumpkin soup (which I made myself, thankyouverymuch), lists, filling out forms ( I have this thing for writing things down and forms) and a good book after working the whole afternoon.

I did make up for a shoot today and I met the cutest little girl ever. Unfortunately, being the lame self that I am, I didn't get to take pictures. So I'm leaving you with a picture of what I had for dinner.

Also, I've been wanting to read this book for a long long time, ever since my friends raved about it, but I could never get my hands on one, until now. wohoo!

I need to buy some bread to dip the leftover soup with.

The thunderstorm's pretty scary, and so is the lightning, but I kinda like it.

I really don't know why I'm saying these things.

 Bisous,
Jamie

the week so far

Haven't done much or I'm just lazy, but keeping my fingers crossed to new possibilities. Attraversiamo! ( I've just seen the movie, it was nice, but the book was much much better) Now I want to spend a year in Italy and Bali, and go back to yoga.

Tshirt dress with lace sleeves from Bkk, cut-out clogs from HK, Balenciaga Bag, Casio Watch
(Yes, I really did draw on sunnies, my eyes looked weird in the photo, and I was too much in a hurry to take another one.)

I love this dress. I love anything that resembles a T-shirt and the lace sleeves are just perfect!


Fish-woman cropped top and Ribbon shorts from Bkk and peep toe oxfords from HK


Met up with Pao in ayala today to give him back his long overdue shirt! we had to make a few alterations. sorry Pao! But I hope it fits well now :D


I went crazy when I saw these shirts with beautiful illustrations, I couldn't help but take home a lot  a couple. So pretty! This one's my favorite, it's a goldfish, a beautifully illustrated one at that, with a girl inside! It reminds me of those traditional japanese drawings, but much more quirky.


see! just look at the detail! pretty pretty pretty

anyhoo, publishing this post now, news say we're about to have another 2-hour brown out in a few minutes. It really is a pain having one or two of those everyday, sigh.

There's a giraffe in your pocket

Giraffe tee, scarf used as a skirt, clogs from HK



This shirt is one of my favorite buys. I just love the giraffe in his coat and tie popping out from my pocket! too cute! Along with the shirt, I wore this scarf styled as a skirt ala Eline Kling (don't you just love her??) I have to admit, wearing it was quite a feat while running around the city, but I couldn't pass it up, and I was feeling extra lazy to look for something else, plus I didn't want to wear anything that was too dressed down.

Also

 I've been feeling and looking really unhealthy for the pass couple of years months, yet I've never really done anything about it. Until now! I finally have the strength to change my bad habits! (took me long enough!). As of today,erm tonight, It's back to no junk! I've probably said this a thousand million times, but I've realized the gravity of the situation, and I'm not having it! I'm doing some changes with my diet and my lifestyle and I hope it all works out. 

Wish me luck! please.

Bisous,
Jamie
