Going on A Picnic..

Posted in Gift Ideas, Home and Living | 0 comments

Just indulge me ok? I was browsing through some website for some picnic baskets and I had this fantasy going on… Of going to a really romantic picnic! Hahaha I know its sounds cheesy, but I can’t help it. Seeing these uber lovely picnic baskets I guess just brings out the cheesy romantic in me.

They are lovely, aren’t they? Which one’s your pick? Hubby though told me, they probably don’t come with cooked food so I have to slave over some foodie in the kitchen before I could go for the picnic. Now, I wish they’d also come with free food delivery! I know there are some restaurants offering picnic deliveries and I wish we had that where we are right now.

Building Your Own Website

Posted in Girl Talk | 0 comments

For people who have very little computer and internet know-how, building websites can be really daunting. I was one of these before. Technologically challenged though I was, I also realized how important having a web presence is. This is all the more so if you have your own business or if you are a professional looking for projects or contracts.

The advantage with having a website is that, since the internet is free and widely accessible to different kinds of people, then you get more exposure for your business or for your services. It doesn’t limit you geographically, for example if you want to open a store, you can open it in your locality and people around the area serve as your customers but if you also have an online store, then you are widening your customer base. People from any place can buy from you.

Knowing the advantage a website can bring to my then business pushed me to study how to build a basic website. Thankfully, the net is awash with tools and tutorials to guide a total newbie like me. You can create free websites with free online website builders or if you want to take your website a notch further, then you can use one of those easy web site builders.

Surprisingly, using these easy website site builders is easy enough. Most of them have the WYSIWIG functionality that you don’t even need to know any programming language to come up with a really professional looking website.

If your just starting out or planning to build your first website, keep it simple, focused and do a bit of reading and research on tools you might want to use. It’s also a big help to visit sites with themes similar to what you have in mind to give you more ideas. And lastly, don’t get intimidated, don’t let the web conquer you, instead, do a little web conquering of your own.

Only In My Dreams: Bottega Veneta Belts

Posted in Accessories | 0 comments

Been awhile since I’ve updated this category. Not that I ran out of things I wanna have but can’t afford, its just that, well I forgot.. Hahaha, really. I love ogling Bottega Veneta products, they are so well crafted, with classic looks. Simply beautiful things obviously crafted with the highest quality in mind.

And of course, their products comes with a mind boggling price tags. Take for instance these belts I liked on their website – Bottega Veneta. All of them are priced at no less than $1,300. Would you shell out that amount for a single belt? Not the budget conscious in me, but if I had boatloads of money, I’d consider..

And oh, to get this luxurious goodies, you have to contact your personal shopper to order.
