BLOGGERS UNITED STRIKE THREE!!!

Watch out for Bloggers United, loves! I am once again attending. Yey! :)




Bloggers United Strikes Three!

Third time’s the charm for the most anticipated fashion bloggers event in the country!

Bloggers United is staging their third bloggers bazaar this June 2 at the Grandview Events Place to once again gather Manila’s top fashion bloggers in one single venue outside of the World Wide Web. After holding two successful events last year, Bloggers United has easily become one of the most anticipated affairs for both fashion bloggers and readers in the metro. More than just a bazaar, Bloggers United also partners with charitable groups to use and channel their influence in a positive manner.

Through the overwhelming power of social media and blogs in today's generation, the previous Bloggers United events have successfully joined forces with top fashion bloggers like Laureen Uy, Camille Co, Kryz Uy and many more to inspire their followers and to raise funds for various beneficiaries, namely KIDS Foundation and GMA Kapuso Foundation. This time around, the event will benefit Operation Smile Philippines.

So, if you love blog-reading and blog-hopping, Bloggers United is sure to be the perfect end-of-summer bazaar for you. Not only will you be able to bump elbows with your favorite bloggers at the event, but you will also be able to snag some of their own stylish statement pieces as they open their closets to sell to the public.

{ DOG DAYS OF SUMMER }

Dog days are almost over but it's never too late to make the most out of the last days of summer!

The boyfriend's aunties from came home from the US and Manila so we paid a visit to his mom's hometown of Siaton, Negros Oriental for a mini reunion. It was a whole 3 days of non-stop eating, chitchat, and adventures. 

My favorite part was on the second day where we spent one  whole day at Bahura Resort and Spa; frolicking in the pool, kayaking, snorkeling, and staring at palm trees and endless horizon at the cabana by the beach. Could life get any better than that!

Thanks to Tita Lily and Tita Dory for the relaxing treat! :) Hope we could visit you one day. :)

{ BEFORE SUNSET }

Saturday brought us to an out of town shoot in Talibon, Bohol. This quiet town is situated at almost the northern part of Bohol and is approximately a two-hour ride by car from the capital city of Tagbilaran. It's amazing that we traveled and went home  the same day. Access to the two places is made easier because of the hourly trips via fast crafts. 

Talibon is a peaceful town; bounded by rice fields on both sides of the highway, the air is devoid of pollutants by cars and factories, no traffic, and it may have been hot but was not  humid as opposed to the city. Must be because of the trees that decorate the whole town. 

We went to this beautiful mangrove place made accessible by a long stretch of bamboo boardwalk. It rained for a couple of hours but we got through the entire shoot just before sunset. The lighting was perfect by that time and of course I have to coerce the boyfriend to snap me a few shots for the blog. I offered my camera so I can have the files and upload them right away. haha  

And lovelies, Happy Mother's Day your moms and to all the mothers out there! :)

Hope you're having a great Sunday! :)

{ SWEET & SPICE )

Awww. My dog wants his share of the spotlight too! :)

Did some last minute packing and buying toiletries for my 4-day Manila work stint. The heat has been unbearable lately so I' dressed up in as little clothing as possible.  Decided to wear this  sexy lingerie top but realized  it was too sexy for my own taste so I toned it down by wearing this sweet floral cover-up. 

That's all for today. Have to sleep now. Flight tomorrow is at 4:00 a.m. :)

Hope you had a fun weekend! :)

{ SHE WORKS HARD FOR THE MONEY }

Photos: Mom

Yesterday was cheat day because of the May 1 Labor day  off. But instead of lazing around in the house being work-free, I had a long day attending meetings with clients and running errands. Truth be told, it's not easy juggling work and a business at the same time. My regular job as I said on my last post is no easy feat.The business on the other hand is a lot harder especially during the conceptualization and post-production stage.

So with that reason we treated ourselves with another bout of spa session after such a rigorous day. 

This is our guilty pleasure at the moment. I've never been a big fan of spa treatments before because I hated the feeling of other people touching my body. But during the boyfriend's birthday last month I finally agreed to try it. It was so refreshing and relaxing, I'm addicted to it since then. This was already our third visit and we tried the foot scrub/massage this time around. It was a perfect way to end the day and reward ourselves in celebration of Labor Day. :)
