It’s About Time I truly believe that accessories play a big role in ones outfit. May it be a bracelet, necklace – or a timeless looking watch. I love collecting timepieces and most of the classic designs I own come from TIMEX. If you love this brand as much as I do, you’re in luck because TIMEX just launched their first ever concept store and new designs!

Coffee and Calligraphy The city skyline is again visible, and confetti and glitter have been cleared from the streets and our hair. Happy 2016, everybody! Lovely to see you here after you’ve slept off your midnight champagne and gotten your voices back after counting down to the new year.

Nightly Ritual: My Skin Care Routine I have this terrible habit of staying up late – which I used to think was the reason for my bad skin. I tried everything to improve it but nothing seemed to work. While it’s (fairly) common knowledge that going to bed without washing your face is unacceptable, I never really knew what a proper “Night Skincare Routine” was. Basically, it’s tailored to your own situation. New skin cells grow faster while you sleep, so a good evening facial routine should be a high priority. At night, the goal is to repair damage from the day’s pollution, sun and stress, as well as to hydrate since you lose more water from your skin. Read on my tips!

Rock and Metal Like what I said in my previous post, a sure-fire way to make an outfit your own is to ACCESSORIZE! Don’t be afraid to wear statement pieces or stack it all up. Most recently, I came across a jewelry brand that is so sleek, you can pile on the pieces together or wear it alone. Ladies (and gents?), check out my latest discovery – RAM Jewelry!

You walk in an event then you think, “OMG – I am wearing the exact dress as her, from Forever 21!” What’s a sure fire way to save you from that fashion blunder? Simple – accessorize. May it be with a skinny scarf or a cute necklace, accessorizing is a way to make any outfit your own.

Afternoon high tea with Brit-inspired clothing label Chelsea Yuki and I attended the Chelsea launch last Tuesday at the Fairmont hotel and it was a celebration of both the brand and its designer, Kim Tugade. To add to the awesomeness, Benefit cosmetics was an event partner and showed off the perfect tools to match Chelsea’s style. 

Afternoon High Tea with OFRA Cosmetics I’m the type of girl who will still hoard lippies even if I have 20 others in a slightly similar shade. Nothing feels better than going out with a bare face and just your favorite lipstick on. Calyxta, an online magazine + beauty source dedicated to filling us in on the latest beauty news, recently launched their first ever Calyxta Beauty 101 session. On this day, we intimately discovered a matte lippie holy grail from one of its top-selling brands: OFRA Cosmetics.

Glam Aswang Seriously – these months are going by TOO fast. Can you believe it’s almost November already?! Too fast I tell ya. Our most anticipated spooky event of the year is happening this weekend – halloween! Here’s how to whip up a costume real quick ++ parties to be in this weekend!

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!
