Hello Sinulog

Last weekend, my bestfriend Echie and I flew to Cebu for Sinulog.

We arrived Mactan airport on Friday at around 10:30 pm.
Our gorgeous bestie Jas and her boyfriend Rap picked us up and
we went straight to Maya, a Mexican restaurant to grab some late night dinner.

Jon and Ichi joined us and damn, it was one crazy night full of stories and jokes!
It was a mojito kind of night and it felt like college all over again.
We left the place at around 3 am in the morning! Good Times Indeed :)

It's my 3rd time in Cebu, yet my first time to experience Sinulog.
So the blogger in me felt like sharing with you snippets of what it is all about.

We attended a Procession last Saturday.
This was how jampacked it was.

Oh what Faith can do. Truly amazing.
Sinulog Festival is held in honor of the Sto Niño every 3rd Sunday of January.




Sunday is when the Grand Celebration begins. Expect to get wet and wild, literally.
So wear something fun, light and comfortable.

To demonstrate, this top was once a shirt,
 but I cut and styled it according to my preferred look.
Special thanks to my artsy friends for helping out :)


This look I created can be worn in 3 ways:
A sleeveless shirt as shown above,
an offshoulder top like so


or a one-shoulder top as you deemed fit.


It's all a matter of creativity. 
Checkout Echie's look! Simply Fabulous!


Now that we are ready, off to somewhere fun! :)


And yes, I'll reiterate, you'll get really dirty along the way :)


This is the Grand Parade where you'll find the most colorful costumes.

And if you get real lucky, you'll find yourself surrounded by big stars!
Checkout Coco Martin and his friends



And now, let the Street Dancing begin :))
Thanks dear Jas for the photos


My friends and I attended Sinulog Royals 2016 at Alejandro's Century Plaza.


Thank you Jas for taking care of us. I know I've been saying this repeatedly,
but someone like you is rare to find and I am beyond grateful that
we have been best of friends all these years. I will always have your back :)




It was truly a night of merriment. Crazy but full of love.
Definitely one for the books.

Here's DJ Kirby to cap off my post :)


Love,

Hello Summer

Hey Girls! Summer is finally here.
Now's the perfect time to bring out your Crop Tops and Bandeaus!



For today's outfit post, it's a floral crop top paired with a bandage skirt.
Something fun and fresh to welcome the scorching heat.


I wore this to Malik's 1st Birthday Party which was held at LIGHT OF LOVE Events Place.


I felt like a kid again with birthday parties like these.


To look young and vibrant, wear florals.
It's such a sweet classic look.


It can be sexy too depending on how you wear it.



My Crop Top was a gift from Jas, one of my closest friends in Cebu.
She's gorgeous inside out.
No wonder she's loved by many.
I am damn lucky to have a friend like her :)


Another must-have summer accessory are hats!
They protect your hair from being extremely dry,
plus it makes you extra stylish.


This hat is also a gift, this time from my good friend Stan.
It's from Desigual and it was one of his pasalubong from his Singapore trip.

My friends are such good sponsors of my fashion outfits.
It must be really obvious how I love dressing up :)


And of course, fashionable pumps will take you to places.
These babies are from Forever21.
Just look at the floral prints! Indeed timely.


There were 3 main highlights of Malik's birthday party:

 The fathers being challenged to do Yoga


Malik with awesome parents


The super cute and colorful Souvenirs: CHICKS!!!


Meet my new pets: Redhead and Gringo :)


Hope you enjoyed my post!
Remember that Summer is all about comfort and having fun.

Stay beautiful and carefree Everyone! :)


Love,

HeartBeat


I'm in love.... (Well, not the kind you're thinking)


Have you ever felt that there's something different about yourself but you yourself can't explain what it is? Well, I did one morning. It's rare that such happens so I felt like blogging about it. I guess I woke up to a very good morning, probably because of a good rest or a result of a sweet dream. Whatever it is, I hope there were more days like this.


For my outfit, I just chose something simple for work. Since I felt inspired that morning, I decided to wear red and pair it with skinny jeans. As I've shared, I dress according to my mood. There's just something with red and black that when you combine together, you immediately look fab.

My theology professor once asked our class,
"What's your vocation in life?"
We came up with different answers, but it ended with one simple yet profound answer. 

"To Fall in Love"

Love here not only having that significant other but more of seeing the world as it is.


So be it. I fell in love with the World. 
My world being my family, friends and everyone I have shared a  memory with. 
I guess that's the reason in living. You live because you love and you love because you believe.   


So let's just let life take us where it wants us to be. As they say, things will fall into place, in time :)
