All In One Paradise  I’m sure you’ve heard (more than once, I suppose!) that Kanye is heading to Manila for Paradise IMF! I am sooo excited and glad to see how us Filipinos are getting more globally competitive in events like this. I have a few questions in my head and one of which – is he bringing the wifey along? Lol! I always eye on their power couple style and it’s something on my #goals list. For now, here is my Kanye-inspired outfit.

Pilar Olivia Manzano Reyes Turns One! We watched her on Instagram and loved her instantly. The most beautiful baby in the world finally turns one – happy birthday Baby O! The Babyscape team raised the kiddie party bar pretty high and threw one wiiild party for this little girl. After this post you’ll either want: 1.) A super cute baby 2.) #momgoals like Andi 3.) Adopt a new pet! 😛

Delicious Food A Hop Away Imagine this: it’s rush hour, insanely traffic and you’re already so so hungry. You head over to your favorite restaurant but there’s no parking or there is but you have to cue in line. All hell breaks loose and you go HANGRY (When you are so hungry that your lack of food causes you to become angry, frustrated or BOTH.) Thankfully, the technology gods has sent us a gift called KANGURU – which gives us delicious food just a hop away!

Let’s face it – Filipinos are naturally bargain hunters. We love it when we feel like we’ve combed through each bazaar stall, leaving with the contentment of nabbing the best deals. I’ve been to so many bazaars so I really do think that I’ve gathered enough shopping tips that I’d love to share with you!

Love month with Spectrum In less than 24 hours, get ready to see your social media feeds with flowers, chocolates and cheesy couple photos. It’s a lovely time to live where people can easily express their love through so many ways – just like how I love … to go shopping. Here’s why I love heading to Spectrum!

Ang Pasko ay sumaaapiiiit! Do you guys also already hear it in your heads? I don’t know about your experiences, but that’s always been the official closing song of all the Christmas Eve masses I’ve attended for as long as I can remember. That’s right; almost all 12 months of 2015 have rolled by and the holidays have begun to take over our hearts, minds and tummies (but mostly tummies, I bet) once again. Garterized pants, stay away. Snaps to whoever can keep them at the backs of their closets (not your own personal closets, but the open-for-all tambakan closet in your homes) for as long as possible. Garterized pants or otherwise, celebrating Christmastime in the metro has finally been made official. This November, Ayala Land electrified us – literally –  with the reveal of this year’s Central Business District’s main attractions: the lighting of ten very impressive, true to life, historical church replicas lined up along Ayala Avenue, Makati Avenue, and Paseo de Roxas and the Ayala Triangle Gardens’ annual Festival of Lights.

Red Charity Gala 2015 It’s true what they say – you can never be too poor nor too busy to give back. Through our own little (or huge) ways, there is always something we can do to reach out to the less fortunate. Tessa Prieto-Valdes and Kaye Tinga, the event’s organizers, know how to do it – in style! This year, they team up with none other than London-based Filipino designer – Lesley Mobo.

Biggest Slip N Slide event of the year! It’s summer all year round for us here in Manila so here’s a new cool way to beat the heat – Slidefest!

Spectrum Fair Manila The country’s first and only premium “Shop and Lounge” experience is happening this weekend! Social icons, lifestyle connoisseurs and avid shopping fair goers got a treat of a unique indoor-outdoor encounter with emerging local brands at Spectrum Fair Manila.

As a curious 20-something year old, I always look for fun new things to experience. I believe in investing in experience rather than material things so I created a simple bucket list that’ll surely make life more fun. Check it out!
