paradiso perduto

no way.. i am estella!

the sun's particularly blinding today.
but the brightness is very dreamlike, and i love it.
apart from the gusty breeze, the house is more quieter than the usual.
time for fantasy tuesday~

to say that i love animal prints is an understatement. i worship it.
i have belts and bracelets that scream safari.
even my seven-year old niece knows how much i adore leopard, zebra and tiger faux prints.
and she knows i've been itching to have curly hair too.
wouldn't it be much much much nicer if i have super afro hair jammin with this outfit?

let's end this piece with besame mucho.
dressed in head-to-toe pasalubong from ate:
trench:stradivarius
tank:gap
skirt:F21
shoes:le donne
feathered pin:marcella

before night falls

the cold spell is here. strong winds plinking off windows and swishing tree branches. much as i wanna rejoice and welcome the season, i know that chapped lips and dry skin is just around the block. let's ditch the cons shall we? everyone here will agree, wintry weather is a rare luxury. so raise your mug-filled hot chocos and let us toast to lazy slubby mornings and chillax(did i just say chillax?) evenings.
o-oh whatever makes you happy, on a friday saturday ni-ight. belting like brett anderson. can't match his high-pitched brit accent though.

returning to my boheme roots in an ikat inspired dress from max, baguio finds~paper mache and resin made bangles and parfois earrings from ate.

coming up:

timothys and williams

till now i've never seen the first part of definitely, maybe. the movie's been playing and playing again on hbo but to my dismay, i've seen what has to be seen. gotta check the scheds again, or buy a dvd for heaven's sake. this film made me feel old. you know, set in the 90s, stuff.
now i know how the 40 somethings felt when almost famous was shown.
i think me and my sister are closet chic flick affish.
see, she likes you've got mail!
(we are hiding on our godfather1 skins)
even my mom knows we've seen the film for gawd knows how many times already!


who knew i'd like that guy from two guys, a girl and a pizza place?
i like summer. if april's not gonna be the girl, i hope he chooses summer, buuut, that's not how the movie goes.

so i am ending this post with:(have to say this without opening my mouth, so no one would hear, and in one breath, i am THAT talented) ammana watch the ugly truth later.

there.
and for crying out loud
you've seen that new ate vi movie with your mom.
hahahaha.

gerard butler is waiting for me:)
ta-ta!

ps.
iwant.iwant.iwant. i miss sanfo's caramel apples! perfect ooweeey goodness.


images from the web

thing

wish i was born with long, delicate, candle-like fingers.
hands that can make a living on its own.
blame it on genetics.
digging my fantasy red polish though. i was never a red polish kind of girl at all, but now i can't go back to taupe. weeks ago was on to a darker shade of red, almost maroon,
now it's screaming red.


it is candle-like. the big, fatter ones. hahaha


rings from left to right: cindy carol, tomato, and h&m.
don't forget to shout at my shoutmix box:)

widgeting and fidgeting

experimenting.
new widget on the right--->>shoutmix.

let's amp up the game a bit, shall we.

baubled up.

excluding my life, i believe i am really good at organizing my bauble. it is my passion..nah.haha. for a girl who has spent her entire savings in cindy carol and marcella, must've learned a thing or two in taking care of my accessories.

i do get bauble-block sometimes. how funny is that. do you get that too?

at this minute, this is my 'it'neckwear.
can be worn just as it is.


if i'm feeling vintage-ey, i'd add this cameo brooch from my lola.


classic twist. black ribbon looped within the chains. i like.


folks, this is the closest that i can get to DIY-ing.
i'm not crafty at all.

nautica ala coco before chanel.


thank goodness i finished shooting before the rain.
we should have more blooms. can i wish for a cherry blossom tree?
p.s.
the last image is a (1024 x 684).
are you seeing it as a full image on your screen?
if not please notify me. thanks dearies.

fave look of the day

nyx

scanned photo.
taken eight years ago using a minolta xd, i think. i'll check tomorrow. my siblings and i would have photo sessions whenever we can. it was always ate's idea, course. posting theirs will now be considered blackmail.

[ed] minolta xg

FUR rocious

as i can recall, i have never ever owned or worn fur, real or faux in my entire existence. the closest is wool. i bet it's heavy and will make me sneeze. i miss polyvoring, i actually had to think four times what my password and my username was. it's life before looklet.

sequins is another story.

been wanting anything 'chain'. the chunkier the better. best when piled on.

sunday bokeh sunday

supposedly, we're headed to my other lola in sucat, dad got the feves, so we had to stay home.


BFF.
decided to play with my camera and accidentally took a bokeh shot, well almost. off to a good start.

i usually don't post on a sunday, but since i'm pretty excited on my new discovery, why wait?



i can be a dork and weird sometimes, this is one of those 'sometimes'.

cha cha um!

polo club

earlier today.

took advantage of the coo coo crazy weather. my tip just in case it gets hotter in the middle of the day, drink a shake, ice cream or anything super cold. degrees higher or not, my mall staple is ice freeze! yesterday i wore a cardigan so i can have my chilly coffee fix.today's an exemption though. gelato was calling out my name. after free-tasting choco mint and vanilla nutella (translation: the whole selection)
 i settled for a cone of sugarfree vanilla coffee.





cute detail: pockets. i got this top on sale:)


another favorite: dragonfly necklace, SNATCHED from my sister, hee.

have to get up early tomorrow. happy zzzzzzzzz everyone!
