All black, almost !

Today I am recycling my high and low skirt, a summer favorite to an early part of Fall. It is not freezing cold here yet so I can still dare to bare some legs. Once in awhile I get comments from my son or husband about my outfits. This time my husband said that the outfit reminds him of the movie "Matrix". I think it is the all black ensemble and the leather. I told him just like Trinity, huh? He said yeah.
Thank you so much for reading. Until next time.
Have a fabulous weekend everybody!!!!!!

Beanie

Back when I was a little girl, my mother used to tell me before you say no to eating your vegetables or anything that she wants us to eat is at least try a little bit. If you don't like it then spit it out. Well it always ended up that I am liking instead of not. Nothing exotic, really.  I guess as I grow up the persuasion stuck to me and have even tried the same trick with my son. I don't like beanies, hat or anything that will flatten the crown of my hair or makes me look more shorter and I think that I am too old to wear one especially the one with a huge pompom on top. And yet here I am blogging about a beanie and looking right back at you. I guess you can never say never or no to anything until you try. A mustard color against the burgundy colored sweater for Fall, why not? Also for pretty much came in handy on my bad hair kinda days. Although there are still other stuff that I would not for the love of food and adventure try. Maybe with the exception of scarcity of food  or the "Walking Dead" really happening, i think I have no choice but to try frog legs, buffalo meat, ostrich meat, critters on a stick, alligator meat, deer meat, foie grois, cow brain, a century egg and some I cannot think of right now. No offense to some but I am not that adventurous when it comes to food.  What about you? Any exotic food you tried lately or you never like beanie too until you had one?  
Thank you so much for reading and for your time. I really, really do appreciate your sentiments from my previous post.

By the rock

Hi everyone happy Monday! Today  I would like to dedicate this post to the victims of the most recent calamity in the Philippines.  All the fatalities and missing persons are not tallied yet but I know that there will be more than what the news have reported so far. My heart and prayers goes out to all of you. I hope that all the heartbroken and suffering will heal. And that the government will do exactly what they intended to do for the benefit of it's people. And as I quote this statements from CNN - Filipino people are unbelievably resilient, long suffering, good natured, uber friendly, loyal, ingenious, and a bunch of survivors. At the end of the day, the Filipinos will just shake off the dirt from their clothes and go about their business and SMILE. They do not complain much, they will bear as long as they can. Maybe this is why they were given the "privilege" of bearing the burden of the strongest typhoon ever recorded. This statement is so true, very true ! The photos were taken with no intention on my mind what my title post would be like.  But as I begun writing, it just suddenly hits me.  If you asked me how I want to describe Filipino people in one word-  " Rock". 
I wore my camo pumps today to pay tribute and thank you Veterans for the service. Happy Veterans day.................................. 
Thank you so much for reading and may you have a wonderful day !


Not intended to be included in my blog pics but our dog Junior always wants to join. Hence, he is also my accessory now, no?Maybe I should change my blog title to "Fabulous Petite and Junior",lol..............

Mad about plaid

Hi everyone. TGIF ! This lovely dress is from Eshakti. I am glad that they considered me once again to showcase this lovely plaid dress. It is actually customize to fit my petite frame. About 80% of my clothes needs alteration so having a dress that was customize to fit me is like an icing on the cake. Eshakti offers several options on ways to customize the size, style and fit of my dress which is too helpful for a petite gal myself. It arrive quickly after I orderered. I like the material and the fact that it is fully lined. The rushing on the middle is a nice touch to hide my belly, lol!  Overall my experience with Eskakti is nothing but pleasant from the very first time up to now. 
Regarless of your body type, size or height check out Eshakti and their offering for customization. They are currently offering  a 25% off entire site for a limited time.

Sponsored review: Firmoo

Hi everyone. Happy hump day ! You know how I love my sunnies. It is essential, a necessity for everyone. Not just because I want to look cool because I am a blogger ! When I was contacted by Firmoo to do a review for them, I say yes of course. My sunnies arrive quickly than I expected. I am pleased by their fast shipping and the quality of the item that I receive. The size is perfect for the width of my face and it is lightweight which is one of my concerns. Their online site has wide variety to choose from and really affordable. My particular sunnies has a retro style, smaller frame and a tad rounder version of wayfarer. The over all experience was pleasant. I am satisfied with my new sunnies except that I wish it's a bit darker for my liking. I did not notice it when I choose this particular style and color but I must admit that I probably overlook it. 
With the company's aim of Vision & Fashion the frugal way, buying a new pair would not hurt your budget I say. 
Also good news for you guys is that the first free pair program. Check it out here. Also Firmoo has this cooles Virtual Try On System which lets you try on the pair of sunglasses online to see how awesome you'll look like before committing to buy it. It is like trying on the actual pair of glasses you are interested to buy on hand. This virtual system eliminates the worries of buying glasses online not knowing how it fits overall.

I been Plaid

 From the traditional tartan to houndstooth to buffalo plaids, it is undeniably that plaids made a super comeback ! And did you know that when Plaid originated in Scotland, it is actually their way of differentiating between clans? As a huge trend this fall,  I don't know about you but I am loving it ! Certainly giving me a fun, carefree and young vibe. Reminiscent of the younger me wearing my school uniform when I used to attend an all girls catholic school.  But I wanted to kick it up a notch by contrasting plaid and leopard for visual interest of course. Life is short. I want to have fun in anyway I can. Today, I just had this feel good feeling dressing up courtesy of my plaid pants. Aside from the fact that I was heavily photobomb by our dog Junior, life is great ! I swear the dog would not cooperate. 
I hope you have a great day. 
Thanks again from the bottom of my heart.........
