Obviously I just came from watching Confessions of a Shopaholic with my girlfriends. It's so different from the book but for a self-confessed shopaholic, the whole movie is a fashion show! Every item is an eye candy for me!

Well, anyway... need help identifying these shoes from two scenes in the movie. Please! Help!

Farewell Marie Claire?!

I heard from the grapevine that Summit is closing down Marie Claire. Just one of the magazines they axed probably due to the economic crisis. How true?

I do like reading Marie Claire. For me it's an intelligent fashion magazine. There's enough brain and fluff in their for everybody. I remember I was even part of the FDG (focus discussion group) for the magazine before it came out.

I finally put on a subscription on Preview online and I noticed Marie Claire is not on their subscription list anymore.

Awww... this is sad.

I missed this!

I have been very busy preparing for my son's christening I haven't have time to blog much. Now that it's over, I have a few days before going back to work to do some (window) shopping.

Confessions of a Shopaholic this Saturday with girlfriends...

Bonga!

After Bebe's "coming out"...


Finally, Carmina reacts...


Taray!

Let's take a break...

I was so bored ended up with these commercials...







Wala lang...

Evolution of Children's Parties

One of my favorite goddaughter is having her birthday party end of this month. I received the invitation already. She has a luau-themed party. I'm amazed by her mom's creativity! Check out the invites...

Birthday parties during my time (hey... that's just about more than a decade or so ago...) were not this elaborate! I remember my seventh brithday I had Ms. Piggy and Mickey Mouse mascots which didn't look much. I don't remember having a party host or magicians. And the games?! I just had palayok and pabitin! I didn't even have a them for my birthday! I remember my aunts from both sides of the family would travel all the way from Pampanga and Ilocos to help with the party, especially the cooking.

My goddaughter attended a classmate's seventh birthday. The girl had 7 wishes... like those done during debuts... 18 wishes! And the girls were made to wear gowns too!

Another friend had a party for her daughter when she turned three... she had mimes...

But don't think I won't be joining the trend... I already have a theme for my son's first birthday about 11 months from no... and I'm sure my mom will be happy to jump in and join in the planning!

"First Love"

Sniff... I find this commercial touching!



Love ko 'to!
