SOLAIRE

BRIGHT & BOLD.

This is how I'm feeling right now!

Is it because of the Solaire Bandwagon?

Or is it just the sun telling me: 'Shine Bright!'

Wedges | CATCH

Yes, it's finally time for the brights.

So bring out those sunnies & hats,

Let's have that summer look comin', shall we?

Lipstick | MAC
One of my personal favorites is my Fly Shades!
They just instantly bring out the SOPHIEstication in me.
 Chic, elegant and stylish in every sense of the word  See... It's just glam!

Yellow is rarely won. But this color can truly make wonders. 

As it is bright, it catches attention like no other. 

It's not too much, but you're sure you're doing it right. 

Simple yet stylish, plain yet seductive. 

That's exactly the look I'm eyeing for. 

Top it off with that perfect summer wedges and you're definitely good to go!

I'm just so excited to visit Solaire,

That I just had to dress up "Brighter than the Sun"

I feel like the Goddess of Sunlight.

Everyone just gazing at me,

Oh, what an eye-popping experience!

I'm feelin' perky right now.

A little playful, I should say.

I just can't wait to try my luck in this newly opened resort & casino.

Let's keep it rolling, baby.

See you, Baby.

BLAIR WALDORF

Hey Bloggers! 

Gossip Girl Here.

 And I have the biggest news ever!

One of my many sources hotbitch91 sends us this. 

"Spotted in the Philippines. 

Blair Waldorf taking a vacation!"

OMG! Don't believe me? 

See for yourself.

Lucky for us, hotbitch91 sends us proof.

"The Queen Bee"

Yes, girls like me can relate to the Upper East Side.

Definitely, Blair Waldorf is just the epitome of this social elite.

From cars, boys, gadgets to the latest Vogue fashion,

This is just what the GG World is mostly about.

Blair is a girl of extremes.

Sometimes snobbish, sometimes sensitive.

Sometimes unpredictable, sometime over dramatic.

In the end, she's just a normal girl who loves like no other.

Social Status. Power. Ambition.

She's just a real person in a real world.

She's a girl of no pretense,

Someone who just wants to stand up for the name Waldorf.

Call her a bitch.

Call her a witch.

She just loves schemes,

That's just the Waldorf Way!

Like Blair, I just love to dress up!

No matter where I go or what event I have to go to,

I just have to look my best,

Who knows...my Prince Charming might just be out there!

Never a hair out of place,

Blair is just known for her signature headbands, tights and diamonds.

Fashion is what sets us apart. 

It's not just about attention. 

It's an expression of  who we are.

SOPHIEsticated.

That's who I am.

And yes, Blair Waldorf has just landed in the Philippines.

And you're looking right at her.

Go Knots & Circles!

Let's bring out the bright reds & neons girls and boys!

Go for circles, knots & coins to bring good fortune and luck this 2013.

No blacks and whites unless you'd want to start your year mourning.

Yes, it's that time of the year again to celebrate...

THE CHINESE NEW YEAR!

So here is my outfit for today's celebration:

Tube | K-Marc
Pants | Muffin Clothing
Shades | Fly

Bangles | From Thailand
Woven Necklace | World Trade Center Bazaar

Wedges | Suys from Korea

This is actually MY YEAR since I am born in the year of the SNAKE! :)

I love to go SSSSSSsssssssssssss.

And of course, no Chinese New Year would be complete without...

MY RED ENVELOPE ('Ang Pow' or 'Hóngbāo')

&

A FESTIVE CELEBRATION AT GOLDEN BAY RESTAURANT!

Here's a list of the foods that are believed to bring something good in your life:

(source: http://www.china-family-adventure.com/chinese-new-year-traditions.html )

meat dumplings for good luck

tangerines for good fortune

apples for peace

sweet rice cakes for more wealth every year

fish for plenty

veggies with long noodles for long life

chicken for wealth

soup means everything better than last year

oranges for money and wealth

shrimp for abundance

Yes, there's a lot of Chinese Superstitions.

Some are just laughable & insane, but some do interestingly make sense.

So what have we got to lose by just following these?

Nothing. That's the point!

Who knows... luck might just be waiting for you to catch it.

"Rosalinda"

"Rosalinda."

Yes, my life was a  modern 2012 telenovela series.

So as I turn over a new leaf this 2013,

I decided to portray 'Rosalinda' to end my year with a bang!

In business, I had to learn the hard way.

No one said it would be easy, but I knew it would be worth it.

Sleepless nights, eyebags and missed social nights.

2 major foreign deals closed, baby!

I wouldn't be where I am right now if it weren't for all the things I've been through. 

I wouldn't be who I am if it weren't for the people who inspired me to believe in myself.

Somewhere and sometime in 2012, I realized how vulnerable we can be when we love.

Loving something...someone & ourselves give us reasons to look back, hold on & move on.

Having said these, YOU can be a better YOU as long as you believe in YOURSELF.

Yes, along the way, you can get hurt, you can be stolen from, you can make wrong decisions.

But, don't forget to look at the mirror, and ask yourself what really matters most in life.

2012 can and may be filled with mistakes, but look up and smile...

That's why there's still 2013! The world didn't end on 12/21/12 for a reason right?!

So I'd like to remember my 2012 as the Modern "Rosalinda",

 who continuously inspired people and made people fall in love with her.

So here is my December 31, 2012 look!

Seasons come and go,

Like flowers bloom and wilt.

But there will always be another year to look forward to.

2012 is the past now,

It's time to turn over a new leaf!

Looking back can be a relief,

But looking ahead empowers you to do more and be more.

Say goodbye to 'what ifs' and 'if onlys'

'Cuz with 2013,

It's time for second chances...

Chances to makes changes, chances to make things right!

HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYONE!
