While I’m almost always attracted to top handles and satchels, I do get to love a tote now and then. There’s just an easy feeling about it, just slumped over your shoulder as you do your business while carrying it. 

I have two or three totes in my closet, and I usually use them when I commute because my hands are free to hold on the bus railings (if I stand, which is 80% of the time) or to defend against bag people on the streets. 

This easy going tote from Charles and Keith is just love. I’d get the green one personally, because pink is just too gay for me. I like how I can seemingly wipe off any dirt I get on it because of the material used. 

I hope this would be available in the next few months, as I’ve just purchased a new bag before I saw this. Tipid tipid din.

The main reason I wanted an iPhone was because I could buy all those cute cases, but I didn’t realize how difficult it is to put on and remove! 

With the iPhone 5, with its aluminum body, I have to be extra careful because the aluminum gets chipped off (thank goodness there’s no marks!) A saleslady in Greenhills even told me one customer suffered dents on his phone after using a steel case. Remind me to stay away from those. 

Anyway, I’m still in search for a cute cat case for my phone, all I see in stores are for the 4S. Help?

EMBELLISH YOUR CHRISTMAS

This year, I know many of us will have a hard time getting Christmas gifts for people on our lists. Most of us will feel daunted in buying gifts for their loved ones because we always want to make sure that we give something they will love.

However, no matter our problems in picking out gifts, there’s always a matter of staying within the budget. Luckily, I found the perfect brand on Zalora Philippines while I was window shopping.

Embellish Starfish Ring - This cute cocktail ring will be the perfect gift for your sister, or your girlfriend, or even your girl/gay best friend! The soft pink and the shiny crystals make it statement worthy that’s sure to dress up even the most casual of outfits.

Petra Ring - This is too cute, I might even get this for myself! The dainty design is perfect for girly girls. I’d give this to my friend that I picked for kris kringle or exchange gifts, provided I picked a girl. The simplicity of the design while having so much detail will truly be an investment piece (even at this price range!)

Arabian Nights bangle - I am currently enamored by anything skulls and bones (blame Alexander McQueen and the genius that is OS Accessories) so this is a natural choice for me. If you’ve been reading my blog since last year, you would know that I went through an accessory phase, where I needed to have the wackiest, weirdest, unique accessories there is. 

Goat brooch - I love this! I never ever wear brooches, because well, I never saw the significance of it other than being an accessory. But there have been nice brooches lately, I recently spotted a spider one, but it was so expensive! This would be great alternative, although it does remind me of Baphomet. 

There you go, my accessories gift guide from Embellish. All those mentioned are below PHP1000! You can even get the four for just under PHP1500! Savings! And since you’ll be ordering from Zalora, you can expect them at your doorstep in one to two days.

Holiday shopping has never been this easy. 

The only reason I wanted an iPhone 4s was because of the many cute cases available, but when it was time to buy… I opted for a Samsung Galaxy Note instead.

As I was walking around Greenhills earlier, I desperately wanted to change my boring plain jane white casing with an interesting one, but I couldn’t see anything good for my Note. I eventually asked a lady in a stall about cases for the Note and she offered me plain silicon cases. I told her I wanted something “cute” and she said there might be polka dotted cases available. Unfortunately when she checked, there were no polka dots for my Note pala. 

But then she brought these colorful cases, and I was amazed when they could be pulled apart into three! I bought one immediately, but not before choosing colors for the top, the middle and the bottom part. I had them open two packs to get this combination. Hahaha!

I love it because I get to mix and match, and my phone will never be boring again! Yay!

COLOR BLOCK

I got this shirt from C2 Collezione a few weeks back. The combination or bright green and fuchsia pink appeals to me.

I am loving this shirt, I don’t know, but people keep telling me that how come bright green looks good on me. Weird, because I think bright green looks good on everybody.

Today wasn’t that good, I feel tired… or a more appropriate term would be, drained. I don’t know why, but have the weekends become too inadequate? Maybe, or maybe I just don’t know how to properly balance my schedule.

On a brighter note, I’m proud of myself, I am taking notes! Finally! After all those years in school I finally take notes. Hahaha!

I’m excited for October, because my lola would be coming to Manila from the US, and it’s more exciting because she “owes” me a graduation gift!
