Very Bridgerton

This Second Look reminds me of the Netflix Series Bridgerton. Their color palette mostly revolves in either muted or pastel colors. Daphne, the main star for Season 1 wore gowns mostly in the shade powder blue.

                                

I'm wearing another beautiful masterpiece by Merri Chan. She was the one who created the dreamy gold ballgown in my previous post. The design evokes a soft yet regal look. I love how light and flowy the gown is.

                                

                               

Merri's hands can really create and highlight the silhouette you want. For those of you who are looking for prenup gowns or haven't found the gown of your dreams, you might want to consult with her. Her IG account is @merrichandesigns and can be contacted via 09178006108.

                           

                           



I am so grateful that God blessed me with the man I've always prayed for. From the moment we started dating, to this very day, he has been very consistent in taking care of me. This certainly is a dream come true. Indeed, love is worth waiting.

Bring Out The Champagne

Ours is my favorite love story. Who would have thought that we have attended several similar occasions, but never got a chance to meet until that fateful day of 16th of February 2019. Ben is God's answered prayer to all my years of waiting. Here are some photos from our prenup shoot. 

I am wearing an Enchanting Champagne Gold Ball Gown adorned with pearls and crystal details by Designer Merri Chan. She is a budding designer to watch out for. When I met her, she was so simple, clad in a white shirt and jeans, but boy, her talent and attention to details was superb. I was blown away with her artistic eye. I am actually proud of her as she is actually a batchmate of mine back in ICA.

                            

I got a chance to interview Merri and here are some things you should know about her

I love this Merri Chan ensemble because it made me look like a princess straight out of a fairytale. From the color, to the fabric and to the beadwork, it was simply divine. I felt like royalty wearing it.



Love is something you should never rush. It took me 30 years to find him and it was all worth it. I am truly blessed to have a man who loves and respects both me and my family. He really is my Prince Charming and I could not ask for more.

The Proposal

It's not easy to find a genuine kind of love. More often than not, you will experience so many heartbreaks before you finally say that you've found "The One". In my case, God spared me from this kind of pain. He made me wait to protect and prepare my heart for Ben. 

August 2, 2021 will forever be very special. Thank you for choosing me and you are the most special blessing from above.

Sharing wih you some photos of Ben's propsal :)

If there's one thing I've validated when it comes to finding love, it's that you don't have to rush it just because of societal pressure. If there are any red flags, then treat it as a sign to take your time. Cheesy as it may sound, Love becomes easy when you are with the right person. 

So to everyone reading this, I hope you only settle when you know in your heart that you want to be with this person in the highest and lowest moments of your life. Keep safe! 

Love ,

Summer with Love Bonito

It's been more than 2 years, and yet we are still enduring this pandemic. Hopefully things will finally get better. Even though face masks have become a wardrobe staple, I still make it a point to look fashionable. I've always believed that with the right set of clothes, your mood and productivity will improve.

Sharing with you a fashion brand that I recently discovered : LOVE, BONITO


Now that it's summer, it's best to wear lighter colors to ward off the heat. I'm wearing Love Bonito's Aerin Padded Textured Knot top. I love the sage green color which is very calming to the eyes. Gold jewelry pieces are good accents for this look.


I paired it with Love Bonito's Brisa Straight Leg Culottes. I recommend white culottes for a polished and crisp look. Adding a gold belt like so adds definition to my waist.


This second look is perfect for festivities or date nights. On me is Love Bonito's Maxwe Knot front Midi dress. It is a nude color dress that has quality fabric and a very feminine design.


The design comes with a very big bow that is tied in front for an eyecatching look. You can also opt to tie it at the back should it please you. Pair this with your trusty heels. In my case, I chose black lace shoes to add some contrast to the nude color.


Lastly, who says you can't wear black during summer. The secret is just finding pieces that allow your skin to breathe. Wearing this attire in the park was comfortable and at the same time stylish.


This is Love Bonito's Essey Padded Tie Back Dress  . I love the fact that there are side pockets, a padded bust, and a breathable fabric.


I was so relaxed in this dress that I get to even play with our dog Timmy. Ain't he adorable.


Which one is your favorite Look? My personal favorite would be the first one. Summer is all about experimenting colors, prints and textures. This article just shows you that you can still wear what you like, as long as you choose the right fabrics, cuts and silhouettes.


Love,
