Posted in Fashion, Shoes | 0 comments

It’s summertime! And while I also find platforms and sidi cobra boots, I fancy wedges and colorful sandals more for this season. I love bold, sunny and cheery colors so I headed over to a couple of online shops in search for some bold and summer sandals.

Here’s my pick: Juicy Couture Baline Rubber Wedge Sandals – available at Shopbop.com. I just love the youthful vibe to this sandal. And I love sandals made of rubber during summer season, just perfect for trudging sandy shores and easy to was and maintain too.

Handbag Pick: Marc by Marc Jacobs Classic Q Backpack

Posted in Fashion, Handbag Picks | 0 comments

Summer is almost upon us and for sure, most of you have someplace or some vacation in the offing. As for me, I have some trips planned and were gonna start out early. As were having a trip already this weekend, then the next weekend. Then we have a couple of out of the country trips planned. Of course, these trips are making me run around and check if I have working luggages and bags.

Thankfully, my penchant for collection travel bags is paying off so I know I have a couple of traveling bags to rely on. I’m pretty picky when it comes to travel bags and I wouldn’t be caught lugging around aluminum briefcase. I love color when it comes to my bags and of course it has to be pretty too.

But since my luggages are all colorful (think red, purple, pink and pale blue! hahaha) so i figured I should throw in something neutral. So I went right ahead and did my bit of searching for some backpacks. What I wanted was something elegant, and in neutral shades.

And I feel headlong in love with this. Marc by Marc Jacobs Classic Q Backpack - $344.99. It’s available in Creme and Dirty Martini shades.

I wish I could afford this right now. Hahaha. But yeah, this is really what I have in mind. It’s pretty, elegant yet with that casual fun vibe. I want. If I can’t have this then I’m searching high and low for something cheaper than this but with the same look.

Surf Shopping for Day Dresses

Posted in Fashion, Women's Apparel | 0 comments

It’s been awhile since I bought a dress. Lately I’ve been shopping mostly casual leggings, shirt and simple cotton dresses. I figured I deserved to have one or two nice dresses soon. And you know I derive so much pleasure surf shopping for some buying ideas. Doing this is like listening to some good music on nady ps115 speakers for me.

As for now, I’m after day dresses since I rarely go out at night anyway and I still got a couple of cocktail dresses that serves me well for ‘formal’ dinner parties. So I want something nice and feminine for day wear.

Browsed around some online shops for womens apparel and found these…from Lord & Taylor:

Lauren Ralph Lauren Winslet Matte Jersey Dress

BCBGMAXAZRIA Tereza Printed Wrap Dress

BCBGMAXAZRIA Camira Slit-Sleeved Dress

Now. If only I have shopping money. Hahaha.. Anyway, just surfing for this was a great pleasure and I look forward to actually shopping for some dresses..

My Picks: Titanium Cuff Links For Men

Posted in Accessories, Fashion, Gift Ideas, Pretty Things Collections | 0 comments

My husband is not a very vain person, he prefers to dress simply. There are only a few things he indulges on: good quality men’s belts, ties and lately he’s been collecting cuff links. I guess its my fault for adding another thing for him to love collecting. It all started out when he lost his one and only cuff link set on a trip abroad and asked me to buy one for him.

I then did a bit of searching for cufflinks for men and found some really good quality ones online and they were also very reasonably priced. A ordered a few sets for him and he liked it. So now, he likes buying one every now and then. Or maybe I’m rubbing my shopping fever on him?

I’m thinking of giving him a new set, something nice and a bit in the mid-price range. Something he could add to his prized collection – titanium cuff links!  Here’s some selection, I’m sure some of you who are looking for some nice gift ideas for men might find this nice..
