Cruel Intentions
I decided to look like a 90’s school girl the other day. Wasn’t sure if it was inappropriate for my age but whatever. I’m a student again, so this is just me dressing up accordingly. ;)
To spice things up, I decided that I would SPIKE things up. How dyou guys like my spike polo from The Ramp? :)
Originally wore the outfit with a jacket around my waist and it totally gave off the 90’s Cruel...

Jubilee Teasers
I don’t know if you guys are familiar with Jubilee, but she was my favorite X-Men character when I was a kid. I used to watch the cartoon, and she was the coolest female teenage character I could relate to back then. :P
You wouldn’t believe my excitement, then, when Jay Tablante himself asked me to model for one of his cosplay shoots as Jubilee. OH EM GEE! I HAD TO SHOW MY TUMMYYY NOOOOOO...
One, Two, Three
celinatheunicorn: Hiii! Unfortunately, I won’t be able to make it. It’s too far and I have no driver. I’ll be holding a garage sale in QC this Saturday, though! Just message me if interested! :)
recreactingherdreams: I’m using a Canong 450D! Lalalala <3
theobnoxiousrae: Eh bakit ka naman magsusuggest ng nakakainis na movie? Pero sige papanoorin ko yan. HAHA!

Horror Movie Review: Grave Encounters 2
Kaya naman pala bitin ang Grave Encounters, may part 2 siya! Watch to understand completely.
Overall, I give Grave Encounters 2 a 6.5/10. This movie’s not as good as the first one, but it’s a great time-killer. It also has a few jump scares so go lang it’s quite good!
You know the drill. Hit the ask button for more horror movie suggestions! :)

Lilac Musings
I was asked to model for my best friend’s online store, Flora Bella, a while back. She’ll be selling awesome hand-made floral headbands, so go ahead and like her page okay? Hazel’s willing to do made-to-order stuff, too! :)
I was never really keen on headbands, but I think this one looks pretty awesome! It really served as the cherry on top when it came to my outfit. Just...

PACUTE TO THE MAX!!! Like my headband? It’s from Flora Bella, and we’ll be holding a giveaway soon. Keep updated and like their page! :)

Shoes for sale!
(1) White Superga Sneakers — Size: UK 40 US 8/8.5
Selling this pair for 1K (purchased for around 3K+). There’s really nothing wrong with them, but I don’t get to use them often because sneakers are a no-no in law school, so they just end up taking space in my closet :(

Artsy Fartsy
Doesn’t this outfit seem like something an artsy friend would wear to a barkada hangout? HOHOL (hangout hangout lang)!!
Was sent this top from Lust Clothing, which I think is just the epitome of comfort and quirk. I love how breezy it is, and the little Indian details on its sleeves are the bees knees.
My large wooden beaded necklace from SM makes a comeback. I figured it went really...

Horror Movie Review: Grave Encounters
I find that the less hype a movie gets, the better it usually is. I didn’t think I’d like this movie because of sheer obscurity, but I was pleasantly surprised by its interesting plot and pretty good execution.
The story revolves around a team of ghost hunters who are filming for their TV series entitled “Grave Encounters”. They are locked in the deserted mental...
I Die for Tie Dye

Flower Boy
I love flowers, suspenders, and sabawity. *bow*
Flower Boy (by Bea Benedicto)
I decided to wear a floral blouse, floral shorts, and floral suspenders. Nope, I don’t think the floral lacey shoes were too much. Hihi!
Keep 'Em Coming! :)
kaemiruiz: Alam mo girl, pakapalan lang yan ng mukha! Whenever I take outfit shots in public, I think “I don’t care if people watch. They’re strangers anyway, nobody knows me here”. DIBUUUHH BAHALA SILA SA BUHAY NILA! <3 And dear, you just gotta work it! Embrace what God gave you!!

Horror Movie Review: Insidious
After much thought, I’ve finally decided to start blogging about horror flicks. From now on, I’ll be ranting about both new and old ones every week because I’m a huuuge fan of scary movies - so much so that I’m practically immune to them. 8D
So this is just me hoping that I can help some people out there with their movie choices. Don’t worry, I’ll make these...

Missing Nail It!
Back when my hair was still long, I had a shoot with the entire Nail It! family. It was a hot day, but a great one for fun nails and silly friends. <3
Which is which? Haha! With the hot twinnies, D&D! The Bold and the Beautiful lang ang peg, B&B.
We all got gangsta at some point. Sabi namin ito yung gagamitin naming profile picture eh, pero nakalimutan na ata ang usapan. But...

Unique Ah?
Leave it to a brand like Unica Hija to get your thoughts a-churning. How am I the only girl?
I’m unique. I can be really humble and say I’m like any other old girl my age, but then again I know I’m not. Every person is special, and through my 23 years of living, I like to proudly that think I’ve set myself apart from people in many different ways.
I’m...

Happy National Siblings Day!
I demand you to come back home, Ate Mai. The four of us need more pictures together, iba na ang hairstyle ko. ;)
The Peninsula
The family decided to hit up Manila Pen for a nice swim and fancy dinner the other day, so this is what I wore.
Feeling ko mukha namang sosy ang outfit, na hindi mukhang trying hard masyado. Achieve ba? HAHA!
Ehem. Halatang hindi nagplantsa ng sweater.
Sige lang, emote emote ng konti.
Okay I have no idea why this post is so becky, but I do hope you liked all these photos! This outfit...

Holy Week 2013
I know I’m like, two weeks late. But better late than never right?
Nothing’s wrong with sharing one of your favorite times of the year. <3
The family makes it a point to go to Cavite every year to visit my tito and tita. We stay at their house and visit all the churches. This year, though, we made a slight change last minute - we stayed in Tagaytay.
My packed up wardrobe...
Spots and Stripes (by Bea Benedicto)
I have been wearing this vest with almost everything! It helps me get away with mixing prints and, you know, not looking like a crazy person. Hope you all had a great Holy Week holiday! Will be posting about mine in a bit!
Anchors Away
Outfit posts could be so difficult sometimes. It usually boils down to this problem: which picture do I use?
Do I go for the most serious?
The most quirky?
Or, possibly, the most gwapo?
Well, whatever the case, I find that blogging is the most acceptably obnoxious way of posting all these pictures without people judging. Hihi!
So let’s start with this look, shall we? (Spot Jech on...

Matchy Matchy
One day, without even planning to, Jech and I wore practically identical outfits.
We both wore blue striped polos, woven belts, chinos, and brogues.
I know I’m getting into this whole preppy thing, but medyo OA na ata ito HAHAHA!
Nevertheless, we’re one of those sappy couples who actually enjoy the matching cuteness of it all. Like our outfits? :)

Taipei, Taiwan: Day 2 and 3
Disclaimer lang, wala akong pictures ng Day 3 kasi nasira na camera ko. HAHA! Here we go, kwento tiiiime!
I will be entirely honest, though. I don’t remember the names of any of the places we went to on the second and third days of our trip. All I know is that that trip was awesome, and my camera died trying to endure all the rainy windy awesomeness.
First thing we did was hit the...
Sixth Time's a Charm?
And on our sixth Valentine’s together, things are still as exciting and fun as ever. I love how seriously Jech and I take this holiday. <3
Stop reading if you’re not a fan of cheese. ‘Cause there’s going to be an avalanche of it.
Let’s start with MY gift. So I pretended to forget my gift that day, and when we came back home from our date… TADA!!! 10...

Hello, 2013
For the second year now, my family and I have decided to spend New Year chilling at Manila Pen. We opted for the hotel’s party this time, though, and didn’t hit the streets of Ayala anymore for the festivities.
I decided to wear this blazer that Jech got me for Christmas. It’s my absolute favorite now. <3
It’s tweet with leather patches AAAAGGGHHH. I deads.

Nakakaa-ZARA
I have no idea if you guys bother to read the labels I’m wearing whenever I post in Lookbook, but if you do… I’m pretty sure you’d see that it’s now full of Zara.
I guess it comes as a benefit for all Rustan’s employees that we get to have these crazy ass sales every month. Prices drop 50% to 75% and I am telling you, it’s very hard to save money in...
Taipei, Taiwan: Day 1
Taiwan was so much fuuuuuuuuun, I tell you! It was insanely cold, but that place had the best food, shopping, and sightseeing!
We stayed at Caesar Park Hotel, which was a 4-star hotel located right in front of the MRT station. People there were so friendly, and my family and I abused the unlimited bottled water.
Our first breakfast was delish. This noodle soup of mine cost around 60...
