My Summer Picks for May 2014

To tell you the truth, I'm preparing myself for something big next month. This week alone, I've been blogging less and helping more clients with writing needs. I've also had to go to meetings to gather details and facts for my reports. But when I am sitting in front of the laptop and pushing keys one by one, I feel accomplished and closer to my goals. May is a very special month for me, and I can definitely feel change coming. 

Stalking online shops just made me realize that there are two things that have been constant on my wishlist, and that's shoes and bags.

OMOSHI Carry Label Messenger Bag from Okay Okay.com Php 699

I feel like this messenger bag will be useful for a personal birthday gift that will be arriving this month. I can easily throw in books, notebooks, pens and other necessary gadgets in here. 

Venice Never Full Bag from Paris Dreams Shoppe Php 650

I certainly like quilted tote bags in neutral colours and the Venice Never Full Bag sure can match my neutral flats. I like to use bags that can carry my wallet, phone, pocket Wi-Fi and other personal stuff. The thing about bags is that I stick to only one whenever I have errands to do in town.

Suelas Puntera Basic in Grey Php 500
Suelas Couro in White-Black Php 700
I've been searching for comfortable footwear and found these from Suelas. I like everything classic and minimalist so I guess it shows in my selection. I've already submitted a form and am currently waiting for a reply.

So what does that say about my style? I think it's all about clean lines, functional neutrals and comfort. I do have a weakness for florals but that can come at another time because I've used and abused them enough I think. I don't also want to bore you with my choices of makeup and tools. I'm a die-hard fan of Urban Decay so you pretty know where this is heading. =)

How's your Wednesday? Share!

Christmas Library Wishlist

Warning: The List Might Get Longer

I'm on a pledge to not touch my savings until December, but here I am, temptation still surrounds me, so it is just right that it could remain in the wishlist, until some generous individuals could find it in their hearts to bring this wishlist to reality. In the meantime, I will stop blabbering.

Time for show and tell...


Wintertown by Stephen Emond



Graveminder by Melissa Marr


Vintage Veronica by Erica Perl


The Elephant's Journey by Jose Saramago



The Complete Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle


The Lord of The Rings by Reuben Ruel Tolkien

More or less this wishlist will cost around Php 2,500 give or take. 

I am on a savings pledge, and I am restraining myself. It takes a lot of self control. A lot. Of self control. 

In the meantime, I have good luck bookmarks from Taiwan given by Tita Bing from her trip a couple of weeks ago. It's supposed to help my brother study. But he left them lying around and let me "inherit" them. 




I think I am meant to stick to bookmarks this year.

My Zalora Wishlist


This is so exciting!


If Zalora were a genie and I were the one who rubbed the lamp, Zalora will be granting five items from the wishlist to a very lucky blogger. 

So let's say for example, the items were listed on a wishlist from Zalora, which ones would it be? 


This is a twisted cropped cardi in black, and would be a great fashion staple in every girl's closet, not to mention the color can easily be matched with any plain or print top or dress. With full sleeves, it could keep my arms warm especially in the office where there's next to zero degrees temperature. 



This Reena striped print is great for a summer dress, and the style is appropriate for any beach party this season. Match this with any wedge or flats, you're on your way. (See, she's very happy with the very summer-y pastel colors!) 

Keep it neutral with this braided strapped Carina wedge and add some inches. I'll be sure to be walking tall and proud in this pair! It's one great style all year round, and surely my feet will be rested even when strolling down the boulevard in these. This is simply a classic! (Dear Zalora genie, I'm a size five by the way...)


This top is just the right material, and it's no-fuss wear by the looks of it. Need to go to the mall for a sec? No problem. Want to take in some fresh air at the park? No problem. Going to the beach with friends? No problem. Running late for work? No problem. Put on this Kiara Ext Top and add some nifty, kitschy cute accessories and head on out that door!

 
Of course, where would a working-girl, barkada-loving, blogger, writer, everyday commuter be without a trusted bag? It's the magic carpet of all essentials, so while Zalora is being generous, it's great to add in this Shoulder Tote Bag as a plus. It's extremely useful for those mountain hikes, beach visits, camp fires and lazy weekends. It's quite fun to be ultra-fashionable with this too. 

If you want to rub the lamp and ask the Zalora genie for your wishlist to be granted too, visit Zalora and follow the link below:
