Shoe Fiend, me?

As my 35th birhday draws near, I see these changes in me.. My taste in clothes, shoes & bags have suddenly evolved. Suddenly, I am now more drown to classic and staple pieces that I could mix and match. I like dresses, shorts, heels and wedges now.

I recently bought 3 pairs of shoes.. A black flat one, a nude strappy midheel one and a porcelain pump. These three are love!

I think I'm not only a bag addict now, but slowly becoming a shoe fiend too.

Ungrateful much..

Today is such a terrible day! As if what happened to me yesterday wasn't enough. The househelp left! She left without a word at all. It was almost 9am before we truly discovered that she was gone. I think she snuck out when DH went out for his daily morning walk.

I felt really terrible! We treated her well.. gave her everything she needed plus lots of privileges and this is what we get in return!

She is really and truly ungrateful, not to mention insensitive. I hope we too, as employers will have protection from being scammed like this.

She is causing such a hiatus as I write. Kid 1 had to be absent from school today, he will be absent from therapy & reading classes this afternoon as well. I don't really know what I'm going to do during school days. I have to drive my son to school and have the little one by my lap as I drive, I guess. He won't ride in the back, or even ride the car seat.

This is such a pain! I wish that A gets what she deserves, for whatever she has caused & will cause us.

Long time..

Wow! i can't believe it's been 3 months since I last updated my blog. Well, I've been really busy with mother duties--and also,I tried out Tumblr which btw I wasn't successful with coz I find it really confusing. So much for that.. Maybe when I become a celebrity or become someone really influential, I'll bring my Tumblr back go life.

Anyways, just writing now to let out a few thoughts. I've been obssessing again with a lot of stuff & just today, I realized that the things I want for my birthday are kinda mature in taste already. So much for girly, cutie stuff.. I'm more into the classy & sophisticated style. I don't know if it's just a phase but I'm kinda liking it. The only downside is, it's gonna hurt my wallet really hard. So I have to take it slow.

I started it with a CC bag... Will have big reveal when I have it in my hands. Already thinking about what I'm gonna purchase next. Paging aunties abroad, please send me $$$ on my birthday. Better yet, give it to me when you get here. Lol

Btw, just an update, I didn't get any from the Christmas wishlist I posted. Boo! Nah.. That's okay, some other things made up for it. I think it's too late to post what I got during the holidays now. Teehee

Ooops, it's getting late. I better hit the sack. I have a morning appointment/seminar about helping toddlers to read something like that. Will just blog about it.. Promise.

Night, dolls.

P.S. I'm secretly wishing to have a fashion blog someday soon. ;-)

Christmas 2010 Wishlist

My SIL posted her wishlist for the coming holidays about 3 days ago on FB and it got me thinking more about what I also want for Christmas.  I have been obsessing over several items already, mostly bags (aagghh!) and a few other stuff. We both share almost the same passion for a lot of things and we spend endless hours talking on the phone for the things that we desire. haha

Right now, we are both stay-at-home moms and we desperately need a high-paying job to make our Christmas wishes come true!! ;)  We even thought of joining online contests and the like.. desperate much? Nah.. ;)

Anyways, here are some of mine:

from the top:  Moleskine Planner, Melissa Ocean, Melissa Mermaid, Marc by Marc Jacobs Totally Turnlock clutch, the new iPod Touch, Longchamp Le Pliages LE in Miyajima, Great Wall, Statue of Liberty, Eiffel Tower, and Galleries Lafayette (whew!) =p


Those are the ones on my mind right now and are still subject to change in the coming days.  Sometimes, I can be a little fickle-minded. haha 

I am not in a rush though.. I don't expect to get everything by this Christmas.  Just one or two will do and hopefully, the rest will follow.


So do you dolls have a Christmas Wishlist too?  What are the things you want or need this Christmas?  It's only a wishlist afterall.  We can always hope dear Santa gets to read this. ;)

Makeup your Mind

I love makeup.  They make me feel pretty especially during days when I feel down.  I rarely go out so I am really excited (if I have enough time) to make my face on these special and not-so-special days.  I am not really brand conscious though.  I am quite loyal to several products.  These are the ones that live up to my expectations of them and some are just products I really love using over & over & over again.

I am still in search for that one perfect foundation for me though.. or that really perfect concealer. Taking care of the little ones take up most of my time so I need products that are easy to handle.

Anyway, here are some of my go-to products:
          *MAC Studiofix Powder Plus Foundation in NC25 or
          *Skin Food Peach Sake BB Cream
          *Benefit BOING Concealer in Medium ( a tad dark for me at times)
          *L'oreal True Match Blush in Rosy Cheeks or
          *Skin Food Muffin Cake
          *The Body Shop Brush on Radiance or
          *Missha Shimmering Ball Blusher in Pastel Glow
          *MAC Lippie in Pink Nouveau or just
          *TonyMoly Magic Tint 
          *Carmex Lip Balm
 
That's about it!  I usually just put powder or bb cream then a bit of luminizer and some magic tint then I'm off.  Sometimes, I do it on the car if DH is here to drive us.

What are your go-to products or your beauty must-haves?  Care to share? ;)

The Longchamp Addiction

As I've said, I'm a certified bagaholic! I've been collecting bags ever since I was a teenager.  I don't know what lead me to this obsession but I just love 'em!  I consider every collection my babies.  Sadly though, I had to sell my collections from the past to make way for the new ones.  I just can't afford to keep all of those & still buy new ones.. I just can't.

Right now, I am a Longchamp le Pliage addict.  I have been on the lookout for more le pliages since my first one. The very first Longchamp was in Bilberry in medium short handles. 
In a span of one year or so, I must admit that my collection has grown.  It has reached almost 10 bags, I think.

I like these nylon totes because they are very light and durable plus they're a breeze to travel with You can change bags everyday  because they fold up to this very small thing. :)

Here are some of my Longchamp bags.. Enjoy! 

Group Shot! =p

Medium short handles in Bilberry, Black (bugs badges), White

Large long handles in Peony Pink, Chocolate & Red Garance

Cabas in Thistle & Small SH LM Nylon in Black

So there.. What do you dolls think of my Longchamp collection?  What bags are you obsessed with right now?

I'm on a Roll =p

I can't stop blogging! hehe.  It's just that there are a lot of things on my mind right now and I haven't had the right person to talk to so I guess my lappy is my outlet this time.

The past few weeks has been really tiring for me and my kids.  We are at their doctor's clinic almost 3 times a week.  Their allergies have been acting up so that means coughing & sneezing on and off.  Plus my little one developed diaper rash which lasted for more than a month.  Thank God he's better now!  The rash is almost gone.  He only has this bothersome colds to handle but that's okay.  The nasal aspirator works wonders on that part.  I try not to give him flu medicine that often.  I try to let him overcome his colds the natural way.  He has been bombarded with a lot of medicines since he was 3 month old.. I think he could use  the break.

Anyways, the reason why I can't sleep actually is a different story.  No, I haven't gotten mad before the boys went to sleep nor was I too full to sleep. 

It's this MbMJ has been keeping me up for weeks now.  :)


I want a MbMJ Totally Turnlock Clutch!! It is absolutely stunning! =p  I just can't stop thinking about it.  I even think about it in my sleep.  Crazy..

 What do you think?  I am absolutely crazy over this!!!

Enough said for now...
