Look for Less: Fringed Waistcoat

I went to the newly opened Forever 21 in SM Makati and came across this cute fringed waistcoat. I was a bit hesitant to get it. It was Php 1,275 and kind of limited to summer but I was amazed by the fringe and design - I'm a sucker for design. So I bought it even if I was carrying a stack of magazines and it was hard to juggle my bag, lunch bag and magazines plus my purchase. It was also the last piece - so there's no turning back for me.

The lighting sucks but you can still see the detail in the front

Back view is also fantastic - worried a bit about the durability since it can easily snag something

Then a week later while browsing, I happen to see a similar looking fringed waistcoat in cream- in Topshop this time and at thrice the price! Item is also out of stock online.

Well, I was really quite surprised to see it in Topshop. Well at least my apprehension on the cost per wear is a bit tempered down.

KRIS KRINGLE: Something Big

I never thought it would be hard to find something BIG for Php 100 pesos ($2) I short listed the following for my fashionable friend: ...a big box of tissue (useful) ...a big toblerone (but this is WAY over budget) ...a big trash bin ...a case of big oatmeal cookies (last resort) ...a big mirror ...a big bookmark (which i couldn't find anywhere) ...a BIG beer (unrelated) ...a big organizer it's quite difficult really. But I must search for something else. PRESSURE! On a side note, Jamie treated us to Pizza Hut's Lechon pizza. After eating, I felt like I would pass out at any moment due to high cholesterol but it was quite tasty if you're a fan of Lechon (roasted pig). The pizza did taste a bit like Mang Tomas' lechon sauce. A big slice of Pizza hut's lechon pizza

Mo Twister, Narnia and Bitch Smile

December 3, 2010 Today we got a surprise visit from Mo Twister and Rhian Ramos. Noj had business meeting with him and he toured them around the office. We managed to get a quick picture with him before they left. Kevin with Rhian Ramos. He's quite red from all the attention he's getting. Group picture with Mo. My height: 5' 3 1/2".

The best part about the movie is that I got to see snow again(The movie was in 3D). We arrived quite late and I missed the first 10 minutes but my brother told me nothing much happened. I did miss a few great 3D effects. Ended the night with dinner at Recipes with Noj, April, Finj, Em, Rommel and Donna. Where Donna once again practiced her "bitch smile" aka Heart Evangelista smile. Hipstamatic pictures using Em's Iphone. Drool! I want one but it co...
