Online shoes: Pair 1

I've bought a couple of pairs of shoes online, especially on the Aldo website. Their sales are awesome! Half the price of the Aldo store here. Best buy! I bought 4 pairs online recently and this is the first of the 4 pairs to arrive. Got it for 35 buckaroos, not bad right? Especially since the dollar is pretty cheap. It's not as comfy as another pair of Aldo wedges I have but it's walkable nonetheless. Super timely because I'm going to need the height and so called "slimming effect" of these shoes especially since its the holidays, ugh!

My early Christmas gifts... hohoho...

I have a Christmas wish I've jotted down in my head...These are 2 the things I've managed to cross out from my list - my Marc Jacobs fuchsia pouch and a DKNY shopper bag. Santa came early care of TJ (my Tita JimJam), thanks for the Marc Jacobs pouch I've been eyeing. This pouch went through a lot to get to me, hidden in bushes in a friend's house in Palo Alto at that. Second Santa was my favorite fiancee-fiance Martina and Ryan, thank you for buying the bag in Singapore and possibly hand carrying it home. 2 down...but a lot to go!

My attempt at TRX

TRX stands for Total Body Resistance Exercise. At first glance it seems simple enough, but don't let looks deceive you. The U.S. Navy designed this training tool for its special Sea, Air and Land (SEAL) forces while they were deployed for extended periods. The elite teams needed something portable and highly effective to maintain their fitness levels in the field. If it worked for the the Marines, it's worth a shot right?

I do my TRX classes with Reema Chanco, she's pretty cool. (The first pic is a pic of the TRX room in her place in San Miguel village) I've gone thrice and so far, I'm lovin' it. It's challenging and mind you the day after my first class I felt like a bulldozer ran over me. In a good way though! It's carrying your own body weight so in my case, that's a lot. (And I hope that means it'll be effective). It's also not boring because there are a gazillion different exercises that can be done. I highly recommend it its an entertaining class and it makes the one hour go by real quick.

My first "expensive" bag

I'm a cheap shopper, I don't own anything Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Prada or anything even remotely close... except for my first "expensive" bag. Do take not of the quotation marks though, expensive is relative. I got this Furla Leopard Shopper bag as a "prize" if I may call it that. Love how you can dump everything in it!

Halloween: My Skull Obsession

. '
Since it's halloween I think its quite appropro to post my skull obsession. I have this obsession with anything skull, skul-ly or skull-ish. Even my son's sling was pink with black skulls. Some may say its so last season but I'd beg to disagree and Alexnader Mcqueen has certianly vindicated me. He has got an exotic collection of everything skull! Here are my favorite skull stuff, most by AM except the leather thong sandals by Giuseppe Zanotti and a Daisy Knights ring.

Bazaar Finds #1

It's the BER-months and that just means bazaar season has finally arrived! Woohoo! I LOVE bazaars, they're the best place to get cool cheap stuff. Does it get any better than that?

I've only been to the Karl Edwards bazaar in Fort though..,.and my first bazaar find is oversized shirt meant to look like a boys tee. My attempt ala Gwen Stefani. All for P250 bucks! =)

Tick Wedges

Outblush is one of the neat sites I check out once in awhile, and when I say neat I came across this neat pair of wedges. How can you not love these Jeffrey Campbell Tick wedges with the silver studdy balls on the heel. Or are they called "ticks"?
