My Daiso Shangri-La Haul

Have you been to the Daiso branch in Shangri-La? They opened last Friday. The store is not so big but boy does it pack a punch. I found items that are not available in my home branch which is Glorietta. Check out my haul!

I love this acrylic stand. You can put books or iPads. My son likes to use the iPad when he's in bed. I normally put the iPad on top of pillows but they tend to slide down. This is the perfect solution. It's also very useful come homeschool time.

This is an infinity scarf. I was supposed to have a giveaway here in my blog but I've read some disturbing news about bloggers and giving stuff away in their blogs. Some legal issues arise. I have to do more research before I move on with my giveaway. If you have any information about it, please leave a comment below. This scarf was supposed to be one of the prizes.

This set is for my son.

This is a microfiber towel which I got as a freebie.

Yes, I couldn't resist these stacking cups which are very similar to our IKEA ones.

Finally! Someone thought of making these staplers! This will be very useful for our crafts and for shipping stuff.

I got two of these binder pouches because one was supposed to be included in my giveaway. These are great. They are no longer available in my home branch. These are bigger than the one I have.

I got a pack of these baggies as we travel a lot. These are very useful.

This is another freebie. I love these mesh bags. I have a smaller one which I bring on staycations.

This is a desk organizer. Pink and green = love.

How cute is this watch? This is great to give away as gifts. There are no brands. the straps and face are clean. They come in a wide variety of colors and designs.

This is for my son's study table. We get messy during art time and this is great for cleaning up. He has also started helping me with the chores. This is perfect for his little hands.

I got another one of these rolling pins as I gave mine to my son to use for Play-Doh play. I use this to flatten bread.

I got a set of these sauce bottles for my husband's lunch box. Yes, I know they're too quirky for a guy but I think he will find them funny. He has a great sense of humor.

So, that's my haul. What are your Daiso Shangri-La finds? Share!

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...
