Sunnies By Charlie SM Southmall Opening Nov 30, 2013

I'm an avid fan of Georgina Wilson. She's beautiful, classy, fashionable and smart. I also admire her for being generous and helpful.

I was surprised when I found out that she's behind the famous brand, Sunnies By Charlie. The sunnies collection of SBC are all fabulous! I really wanted to have my own pair but their branches are too far away from home. 

I was over the moon upon learning that they're coming to south. I've been checking their page from time to time to know the exact date of the grand opening at SM Southmall. The grand opening will be tomorrow (NOV 30, 2013). 100 free sunnies will be given away to first 100 guests! :)

Unlimited Manila Watches



Hi everyone! Happy Weekend! It's payday today so I guess everyone's going to go out later with friends or go out to do some Christmas shopping after office hours. Anyway, I just wanted to share with all of you that my sister and I ordered for these watches online last Tuesday and the package just arrived yesterday. That was indeed a smooth and fast transaction! :)

My sister has ordered the mini Basic watches while I got the Billie watch (the plain red watch on the picture above). I adore it so much! It isn't only fashionable but very affordable too!

Lotus Biscoff



I am a sucker for cookie butter spreads! My ever thoughtful baby gave this to me when we went out on a date last time. It's real good! In my humble opinion, it's better than Tj's Speculoos Cookie Butter. It's tastier and even more delicious! 

I usually pair it with banana, bread and crackers for snacks. It's available in Healthy Options and several online shops selling imported goodies from Japan, Europe and US.

Baguio's Puto Bungbong



Puto Bungbong... I guess everyone loves this delicacy! I've got to taste Baguio's puto bungbong the last time I went there and I absolutely loved it! It's the best puto bungbong I've ever had so far. 

Puto Bungbong sells like hotcakes during Christmas season. It has become a tradition for the Filipinos to grab some puto bungbong and bibingka after attending the Simbang Gabi. I did enjoy my puto bungbong food trip with my baby. It was even better when we had some authentic Batirol hot choco too.

Yummy Dessert



I have a great love for food! Filipino is definitely my favorite cuisine. I'm not being biased here but Filipino food is indeed delicious and is very rich in flavors! 

I can hardly remember the exact name of this yummy dessert but it's turon with chocolate and ube ice cream. I'm a big fan of turon and bananacue but I don't like it covered with too much brown sugar. 

This one is perfect for those who are sucker for desserts like me! 


Tulong Na Tabang Na Tayo Na Shirt



A little help goes a long, long way. Yes, indeed it's true! By acquiring this Tulong Na Tabang Na Tayo Na shirt of ABSCBN, you'd be able to help many lives in the affected areas of Typhoon Yolanda. 

It's available in Ayala Malls! I've got mine at Alabang Town Center. You have to come as early as possible because the line gets crazy as soon as the mall opens. 

The shirt costs PHP 250 and all proceeds will go to Typhoon Yolanda victims. Let's help our kababayans who are in dire need of our love and support!

Energizing Pitanga



Dabbing a cologne or perfume is a must for me most especially when going out. I feel incomplete when not wearing one. Since I ran out of stock, I purchased a new cologne at Fresh-Alabang Town Center right away. It's called Energizing Pitanga from United Colors of Benetton. It's cheaper than Bath & Body and VS. The scent's not too strong and is good for everyday use. It gives out an energizing Brazilian shot and the exciting fire of Pitanga.

Healthy Options



Healthy Options is a one-stop shop for healthy and nutritious products. I really am not the health-conscious type but I know when to stop my unhealthy food cravings. I've recently purchased a sugar-free chocolate (Amberlyn Fine Belgian Chocolate) and some gluten-free snacks at Healthy Options. It's more expensive than the snacks you usually get at grocery stores but definitely it's healthier and guilt-free!

Healthy Snack



I'm now more conscious of my food intake. I always make it a point to buy the less evil snacks just like this Beanitos nacho cheese whie bean chips. It's made from healthy and nutritious beans that have protein and fiber growth right in them. It's all natural, no transfat, no preservatives, corn free, gluten-free, no MSG, low-glycemic, cholesterol-free, lightly salted, vegeterian and certified kosher. It's definitely a healthy snack! It's kind of pricey compared to regular junk foods but it's better to get something you won't regret having.

My Lavish Lashes Studio Experience



Eyelash extensions? It's a must for me to have my eyelash extensions done regularly. I won't have to wear any eye-make up anymore because the eyelash extensions alone would do the trick in making my eyes brighter and more attractive. (Yehess naman!)

I had my eyelash extensions (fancy look) done just yesterday at Lavish Lashes Studio in Festival Mall-Alabang. It was my first time to have it done there and I was extremely happy and content with their service. 

The place was cozy and I felt relaxed during the whole procedure except from the glue that they have used. It was kind of itchy but bearable though. 

Morever, I like the fact that they're accepting credit card payments. When I don't have cash on hand and I feel like going to Lavish Lashes Studio for my eyelash extensions, I can use my credit card anytime. I would give it a rating of 9 out 10.

After-Care Instructions 
- Avoid getting your lashes wet within the first 24 hours. 
- Avoid swimming, steam bath or sauna for the first 2 days. 
- Do not pick, pull or rub your extensions. 
- Avoid oil-based eye products and waterproof mascara. 
- Use cotton swab to remove make-up around the eye area. 
- Do not use eyelash curler, perm or tint your extensions. 
- If you experience any signs of irritation, you may be allergic to the extensions and need to have them removed. 
- We recommend touch-up every 2-3 weeks. 

Lavish Lashes Studio Branches: 
- Festival Supermall
- The Block, Quezon City
- SM Megamall
- Katipunan

Stashd Application



I am no fashion expert but I do like reading fashion-related blogs and magazines. I always like getting myself updated with the latest trends in the fashion industry. While I was browsing for new applications on Appstore, I've stumbled upon the Stashd app which showcases the hippest fashion today. It would surely be of help when I wanted to know the styles that are "in" these days. I don't need to buy fashion magazines anymore since almost everything I needed to know is right here.

Captain Phillips Movie



Watching movies is definitely one of the things that entertain me. Last time, my family and I watched the Captain Phillips movie. It was a true story about Captain Richard Phillips and the hijacking of MV Maersk Alabama cargo ship by Somali pirates. There are no dull moments and Tom Hanks did a great job in portraying his character as Capt.Phillips himself. I would give this film a rating of 9.5 out of 10.

Giga Products



Giga slimming and whitening soaps are being raved by so many. The rave reviews made me try some of their products. There's no harm in trying, right? Even if it's way out of the budget, I still purchased these three the last time I went shopping at Festival Mall in Alabang. 

I have a fair complexion. I actually don't need to spend on whitening soaps anymore but my skin in the arm area got a bit darker. 

I also acquired a Seaweed soap and oil which is said to firm, tone and de-fat. The  seaweed oil costs PHP 310 while the seaweed soap and skin lightening soap costs around PHP 80 each. I've chosen the Giga brand because it's organic. It's made of natural ingredients that is perfect for any skin type. If you have sensitive skin then you really should go for organic products! 

It's only my second day to use them so obviously there's no any visible change yet. The seaweed oil has a cooling effect after applying it on my belly area. I like anything that has a cooling effect especially during bedtime. It gives out a soothing and calming feeling and helps to put me into good sleep.

Metrodeal Application





Indeed, life is getting tougher as days go by. Prices of basic commodities go up and an ordinary Filipino like me can no longer afford to enjoy all the good things in life. 

Thank you to group buying websites like Metrodeal. They really have nice deals for average citizens who wanted to splurge sometimes. You can have a full body massage, go on a dinner date with your family or special someone or treat yourself to an out-of-the-country vacation, at an affordable price. 

Visiting group buying websites is truly a joy for me. Whenever I'd like treating myself for a dinner or hair make over, I'd always go to Metrodeal, CashCashPinoy or Ensogo to avail those amazingly cheap deals! 

In fact, I just downloaded the Metrodeal application earlier this morning. Using it makes everything much easier. If you are an Apple user (iPhone, iPod and iPad), then you shouldn't dare miss downloading this great app!

New Casing



I love my new casing for my iPhone 4G. It's so girly! I really like anything with Paris print on it because Paris is one of my dream vacation spots. I'd love to see the Eiffel tower and of course to see the other fantastic sights in France. I really would love to travel but I'm scared of experiencing hyperventilation again.

Garlic Spicy Mussels



This dish right here is called garlic spicy mussels. It is one of the dishes that we've had when my little sister's boyfriend took us to a dinner treat. It really is delicious! I love seafoods particularly crabs and mussels. I am looking forward to having another seafood dinner with my family. I'd love to have crabs next time or something that has chili on it.
