When the Going Gets Tough

The waists go higher?

LOL

No logic, I know, but that's the first thing that popped into my mind for this post.

Say hello to my newest shorts acquisition:

This would be perfect for the summer and all the planned outings I have, yey,=D

On another note, I can't believe it's Thursday already! The week swept by so fast for me, that means I was so busy haha. 

Later luvs!

Until The End Starts

Hello  luvs! I've been a busy bee this past few days, and also been recuperating from the flu/bug that bit me late last week.

So I went home last weekend and spent some time with the family and then went straight to work again.

I didn't have a date yesterday, but that's okay because I was at work anyway haha.

BUT, I had a very NICE surprise, because I won Sarah's (MS EGGPLANT'S CHRINICLES) Paisley Loafers Giveaway.  Eeeep! So excited, hahaha. {Will blog about it later}

And today, I decided to make another blog : UNTIL THE END STARTS . It will house my outfit posts mainly. I wanted to keep this blog as my "crafting/thrifting" corner, and posting my outfits shots here confuses the category haha. So please, if you have some time, give love and visit me there too {wink}.

I got the blog title from Adelle's One and Only. I so love her and that song is my favorite. 

I'll be taking pictures of my finds later so hopefully I can blog about them tomorrow, haha. I know I've been a lazy ass lately.=D

Later luvs!

will be back on regular programming on the 15th

I've decided to be absent for the whole day of FEB 14th. Just because. Haha.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY LUVS!

No distance No Time 

Is ever Significant

As long As I am yours

And You are mine

Happy FIVE!

I have always believed that I am not much of a "mothering" type. Or that I would want to have kids some day. But becoming an aunt, five years ago, made me realize that I'd love having a kid, and would enjoy motherhood very much. When I just think of how much I love this precious boy,I ask myself  how much more would I love my own child, right?

I thank God that I got to be the lucky "tita/Ninang" for Jed, and he has taught me a lot about love and simple joys like having some one tell you: Love kita Ninang Ann, I love you Ninang Ann, or Kiss kita, Ninang Ann. I tell you, there is nothing like the honest love and trust that you see reflected in their eyes. Children has the most honest minds, and only they can love you without mallice, no hesitation and fully.

I went home last Saturday for my nephew's birthday yesterday. Then went back to the office this morning. I think I was just there for 30 hours, including sleeping and travel time. But it was so worth it because I got to greet him a happy birthday,=D. Although his party is held today (w/c I didn't get to attend because I have SO MUCH work), we still bought a cake yesterday, for the customary singing of "Happy Birthday" and blowing the candles,=D.

I was also able to squeeze in a bit of thrifting, and I was able to snag a rad top (I'll post about it later). Just a funny side story though. Remember the JS Clogs I scored? Well, we went back to that same store and imagine my happiness when I saw a  Ferragamo laced up boots like this one . I think it was for men's but my sister was telling me it looked good. So I picked up the left shoe and tried it on. Imagine  my surprise when we saw the the left foot is not the same one! The saleslady kept on insisting that they didn't sell the mismatched pair of shoes, but when they looked for the right pair, it was nowhere to be found. =D So there, somewhere out there, some poor soul owns a mismatched pair of Ferragamo and a no-name pair of boots.

In case you're wondering....

YES LUVS, I'm STILL ALIVE!=D

I have lots of finds from last week but have no photos to show you yet. I've been sick and then so busy with work and then got super sick again. Tomorrow I'll be going to the province for my nephew's 5th Bday on Sunday. I've drowned myself with medicines to feel better, lols.

NLFBlog will be back on it's regular thrift blogging/programming come Monday.

Have a happy weekend luvs!

Walk that Mile, until the End Starts

I really envy girls who can pull off these "masculine" styles and still look so beautiful,=D.

Shannon of  DIRTY HAIR HALO

DHH has been one of the earliest blogs that I followed way back. I really love her "devil may care" attitude on dressing. She dresses for herself, and doesn not let others dictate what she should or should not wear.

Bestie of THE CAPRICIOUS CLUB

TCC is also one of the oldest blogs I've been following. I just love her style, and her photos! One word I describe her, everytime I go visit her blog (which is more than twice a day, mind you) is ENCHANTING.

Karla of KARLA'S CLOSET

Oh wow, I must have been in nostalgia mode, because, incidentally, I featured three of the earliest blogs I've followed! LOL. Seriously, I love Karla. Who doesn't? she does justice to everything she wears. I drool.=D

On a side note, I'm loving these themed features that I've been doing, I think I'll do them regularly. 

Should you want to see a themed feature of say a trend, or a pint or a style, don't hesistate to comment here and I'll try to post them too.=D

By the way, all photos are owned and linked to the respective bloggers that I featured. I did a simple color edit on the images to have a uniform theme though.

That's all for now I guess. Off to work for now! HAPPY SUNDAY, luvs!

PS: RomantiQ Collection is now open at the shop! Do click the link below to visit and buy=D

SHOP MYOWNTHRIFTSHOP

PPS: the title is from One and Only by Adele. I know, I'm addicted to that song.=D

Simplistic

I usually buy basics at the mall, since I seldom find them in ukay. For tank tops, as example, I prefer them in cotton, in the most basic style  I could get, no pockets, embellishments,slightly loose and has solid colors. This find from last week failed because of the pockets, but still I did not leave it there because the other catefgories had been met. It's a bit longer than I prefer, but it'll do.
=D

Have you been to the shop guys? Please visit because I swear, all the items for sale are super lovely!=D

Maureen of MESTIZAY

PS: Title is from ONE AND ONLY by Adele. I adore her.

Nivea Baby for your Precious Ones

I think last December, I received an email from the Nivea team about the Nivea Baby products, and if I would be interested to sample  and review some. I told them I don't have a baby yet, but I do have a nephew, that has sensitive skin. Yesterday, the guard at our building informed me of a package, and these are what they sent me.=D

 JED sends his thank you for the gifts, you're just in time because it's his birthday on the 12th.=D

He'll be FIVE soon. Can you believe it? No more a baby but still one in my eyes. Such a darling, albeit naughty (as expected with boys) at times,  hyper and zestful and growing up to be a kind-hearted person, friendly and so malambing.

Long Way Home

What to do with an assymetrical skirt?

Twist a little and make it a Mullet Skirt, of course, =D

This sheer goodness will be up for bidding later tonight at the shop. See you!
