Therapy

MB took me to therapy yesterday.

Haha! Not everything in the picture is mine. Most are gifts and some are MB’s. I did manage to score some good finds though like these:

chesca shoes, by bitsandtreats

These were on sale at only Php499 each! And you know that when I find shoes that fit me, I buy them in all colors that I like. This is tan and chocolate brown. It also comes in black.  MB originally wanted to take me shopping at Zara but all the clothes that I wanted from last week were not there anymore. We went to G5 and found the shoes. MB said that he’ll buy the shoes to make up for the Zara spree. Glorietta was on a crazy Midnight Madness Sale for two nights. They’re still on sale today so if you need some closet fillers, go NOW!

I was also able to buy (or MB rather) some basic tanks at Kamiseta and a striped blouse which I will feature along with some The Emporium finds. Lucky me, I’m an XS so these stocks were ignored by most. Oh, please be careful at Kamiseta. The girl on the cashier line with us lost her wallet. Somebody took it from her bag. You know how crazy these Kamiseta sales can get.

At Penshoppe, MB bought a polo shirt and I got another tank top in peach. I was a bit frustrated with Penshoppe as the top that I got was on the 20% sale section. The other color on the other side of the store was also marked 20%. I even double checked with the SA and she said that it was Php249 but will still be further discounted for 20%. When MB paid, it was only on 10% discount. I asked the SA and she asked the manager beside her. The manager said it was a mistake. I pointed the 20% discount sign on each side of the store where the tops are. She said that people just hang things where ever. I told her that I double checked with the SA and she kept saying that it was a mistake. The SA who punched our purchases said, “Ma’am sorry po. Nabigyan ko naman po siya ng 10% discount so ok na po.” WTF? What’s okay with that? That’s false advertising! I told them that it was false advertising. As if a 10% discount would make us feel better. Pampalubag loob? Consolation prize? And I wanted to buy one of each color! Good thing there were no more sizes on the other colors!

On our way out, the same SA apologized again and repeated the 10% discount speech. This time I was really fuming and snapped at her to fix their stocks and put them in the proper places. It is what it is, FALSE ADVERTISING.

More finds on my next post…

Alone Time

My good friend Kitten and I were supposed to go out yesterday but she had some unexpected things come up. I needed to buy some stuff as I am packing for a trip and so I went alone. I actually enjoy going out alone as much as going out with girlfriends or MB. It gives me a chance to eat whatever I like to eat and explore new restos. It’s also nice to take my time when shopping. After paying my bills, I had a late lunch at Toast Box: I love Hainanese Chicken. I sometimes cook this dish but it’s too tedious so I settle for eating out. I’m so happy that there are now restaurants that serve proper Hainanese Chicken. Well, except that one above was sooooo bloody. It was swimming in blood when I pulled the meat apart so I had it changed. You know what Gordon Ramsay says, bloody chicken is poisonous. This is the second time I ate at Toast Box and in both times, the chicken was so bloody. After lunch, I started shopping. First stop was Beabi where I bought these: The Sakura thermos on...

Soft Luxe Travels: Day 1 - The Journey to Vigan Part 1

In this post, we will start our journey to Vigan! The Night Before After packing our things, I did a few things for myself to help me relax and decompress so that I can sleep. I'm a night owl and not used to waking up early nor sleeping early, so I have to be strategic.  I painted my nails that night after all my chores, so that the nail polish wouldn't chip.  However, I forgot that I needed to make pressed sandwiches for our breakfast the following day!  Because really, what’s a road trip mom without freshly painted nails and a last-minute kitchen hustle? 😂 So, I had to do a lot of washing and hoped for the best that my nail polish will not chip! Luncheon meat, eggs, Kewpie Trust me, it tastes better than it sounds at 11 PM while trying not to chip your polish. That night, we also tried the Ube Halaya from Amira's. This was from our trip to Tagaytay . I'll try to make a review of this on my food blog . With everything prepped, I finally let myself drift off—half excit...

Holiday State of Mind

  Sometimes, a quick escape is all it takes to reset the spirit. Tagaytay always gives me that holiday state of mind… Even a short drive can feel like a retreat when your heart is ready to embrace rest. My son successfully finished his recital last Sunday and as a reward, my sister treated us to Tagaytay yesterday.  Getting Ready for the Trip I decided to use my BYS Golden Hour Palette for today's look. Makeup, for me, is part of the ritual—it sets the tone that today is special. Here are the swatches: From top to bottom: Polaroid, Candid, Aperture, In Focus, Portrait, Panoramic In Focus is slightly wet, like something between a liquid and cream eyeshadow. The color is gorgeous! I love Panoramic, too! Polaroid is a bit chalky and not as pigmented as the shadows in the Queen Bee Palette.  Here are the face shades: Highlighter: Illumination Contour: Ambiance I haven't tried Illumination yet, only Ambiance. I used it on top of my BYS Bronzer. It's a buildable powder, a littl...
