Because I Said 2011 is All About Redeeming and Pampering My Self

I've been MIA on Blogger for 6 days! The culprit: Grad. school midterms. I really couldn't add blogging on my to do list every after work because I had to go straight making our midterm projects. I think the title The 30 Day Movie Challenge Fail would've been more appropriate but it's so negative and doesn't exactly fit my Sunny theme. I'm going to discontinue with the challenge 'cause that's going to be cheating and I loathe cheaters (chos).

So now, I just feel like blogging the sunny stuff that made my eyes twinkle this week. And when I say stuff, I meant tangible objects that made me feel a bit guilty ('cause I feel like I've splurged a bit) yet made me giddy.

When it comes to scent I don't like the strong ones that make you dizzy in an instant upon taking a quick sniff so I only have 3 top picks/favorites: Lacoste Pink, Sentiment by Escada, and the one that I got this week, Clinique Happy. They're just mild but really nice to smell. :)

Current read:

I'm taking a break from reading Harry Potter 'cause I just finished its book 5. I'm already half way through this book but so far, I'm not feeling happy. The story is nice it's just that this kind of reads are really not my type. Now I've finally decided to skip on Khaled's books 'cause they're always hardcore emotionally heart breaking, tipong you'll have a heavy heart after reading. But then again, I'm still not done reading it yet, so the plot may still take a turn to a lighter feeling. Bah. Anyway, I cannot wait to finish reading this so I can move on to another book lined up on my list which is undoubtedly a feel good book 'cause it's a chick lit.








And speaking of Harry Potter, I was finally able to see its final movie last night with my folks

Grabe, it was a mixture of emotions bouncing off all over the place from my insides! Bravo. Bravo. Bravo. Amazing story. Before all the 7 movies were released I really haven't got the chance to read any of its books even though I kept getting dragged by friends to watch the movie versions with them until last year when the Deathly Hallows' first sequel came out and I watched it with the family. My sister in law is a fan of HP and she, together w/ my brother encouraged me to just try reading the book and take my mind off the movie. She lent me the first 4 books and I started reading. Obviously, I got converted. Hands down to J.K Rowling for this genius masterpiece. It's really a page turner book, which what I'm always looking for in a book.








Yesterday,  I finally got my new toy

I'm in love with Ray-Ban. I guess because they're  classic and simple. And I'm a sucker for the good old classic things even with music; I appreciate the songs that this generation's parents were used to listening.
I got a good discount from an online seller that sells original branded items at a lower price. I got this for only Php. 5,950 :)

Last Friday, pop showed me his Ray-Ban aviator way back his teenage days! And I think that's so cool and sunny! His aviator looks like this--Back in the good old Beatles days. And so we've agreed that we'd wear our matching Beatles shirt and pair it w/ our aviators when we travel. Mama agreed to wear hers too and I'll lend her my other Beatles shirt and look like a walking trio of Beatles fanatics. :D





And talk about classic/old-school items, I also bought this old school/vintage-y bundle of bangles for only Php. 199.00 and a classic old school look top.

And oh, let's not forget, I found a place where to buy an original Tory Burch flats for a lower price! *smiles from ear-to-ear* Let's see, maybe that could be my next target purchase, because sayang, e. It's really cheap compared to the original price of a Tory Burch flats! But for now, it's a no 'cause I'm still skeptical on its authenticity. I'd research first how to spot a fake Tory Burch flats 'cause I don't want to spend a pretty high amount of money for a fake one.











And then when I was surfing the net I bumped into this!!! Another classic bag weakness!

It's a Longchamp beige messenger bag! Seriously, I do not dream of having LVs or Chanels. Okay fine, maybe I fancy those 2 brands but I don't get the one-day-I'm-going-to-buy-one! feeling towards them. The feeling that I get from Longchamp. Again, it's classic and it's really not just a porma bag because it really serves my needs right; for someone who just puts everything inside her bag, Longchamp is really the bag for on-the-go ladies like me. Very durable and spacious and classic looking. I love Longchamp! Now I know what to hunt in Hong Kong next week!:D








I never thought I'd like Selena Gomez but when I saw her do this, I instantly had a change of heart:

I didn't imagine, that she would end the same plight on me like Vanessa Hudgens. Because I also didn't like Vanessa Hdgens at first but when I saw that the girl has some style, I also got converted. And now,  focusing my eyes on Selena G., I actually find her personality much better than Vanessa G., because for one, she's funnier, second: she's more tamed, and third: I think she has more brains.

There you go! Just leave a comment if you want the contact details of:

> The online seller I mentioned above. She's also selling original branded bags and watches. 

> If you want to know where to find a good vintage haven 

> And the Tory Burch seller, then maybe we could both see if they're authentic or not. :)
