thrifted part II: shoes and bags

Another set of thrifted items :)

the orange handbag ala Hermes :), the black is a CD, pink envelope clutch, another (abused) handbag

H&M bootie, Mudd wedges, Marc Jacobs flat shoes, Predictions red flat

I'm not suppose to wear heels but could not resist buying the black bootie (H&M), it's ok to wear wedges but not in front of the hubby :D...flats are my best friends for now so I settled for these two.

Even in my blog shows how lazy I am since week 1 of my pregnancy...I can't even take a photo of each item :)...I'm on to my 33rd week and it's really tiring :(

thrifted: tops and dresses

Here are some of the items I thrifted for the last few months...the dresses are for my growing baby bumps :) not maternity dresses, I just chose stretchy fabric so that I can wear it after I give birth.

Hope I can find time to take a pictures wearing those while still preggy :)

 red polka dot, Gap 3/4 sleeves, Zara blazer, and H&M black top

I had no entry this last few weeks 'coz I lost my data cable which I use to transfer my photo from my digicam...and finally found it last night!

I received a Nina Ricci EDT and a bouquet of candy flowers w/ Hello Kitty from, of course, the sweet boyfie :)

Nothing spectacular date happen last St. Valentine's day, we just ate, talked and talked, just a quality time together. I don't really celebrate this event on a particular date. For me everyday is loveee...may it be Feb. 14 or any date it's all the same when you both love to be with each other :) weeh cheezy!

Sooo belated hearts day to 7 billion people!

Birthday surprise

The bf surprised me of a pre-birthday dinner on cruise in Manila bay. It was really a first time for me and I was so happy he had made an effort to treat me in a special date.

Though the food and the smell of the sea was not pleasing for me/us the thoughts really matters to me :)

On the day of my birthday we had a buffet breakfast @ Bayview Park Hotel, I didn't took pictures while there got shy :) instead I just took a shot of their plastic bag :D

so this is what I've got on my birthday...thank you so much babe! :-*

Road trip to highland...again

We went here not so long ago but on the other side of the highland. What makes this place a romantic getaway? I guess the cold weather and the thoughts of going out of town just the two of you that makes it romantic...for me :)

 Taal volcano

 hanging bridge along the eco trail

silhouette of mine on a foggy Tagaytay!

 my mysterious loving driver-photographer :D (don't get mad babe! :))

This is the nearest place we can go..for now. That's why the place been featured here twice already :D

Christmas gift

Last month the bf asked me what I want for Christmas, I can't think of anything.He's so thoughtful and sweet. He always bring something whenever we see each other..."I don't need anything, all I want for Christmas is...YOU!" I said.

But then here's what I've got...:D

Actually this isn't a surprise because I was there when he bought it, I chose the watch myself, the saleslady adjusted the band to fit into my wrist but I did not wear it right there and then :) on a whim, I asked him to wrapped the gift and had it open on Christmas day :D...this may not be the most expensive gift someone can ever received...but the thought matters so much to me!

 so sweet! :)

I have not given him yet my Christmas presents...until now I can't think of anything :D whenever I asked him he just said "just always be there and love me faithfully..." hmm the cheapest gift I can ever give! no amount of money can ever buy a faithful love :)

Emo!...Merry Christmas everyone!

FTX

Have attended a field training exercise and was supposed to be one of the instructors for Basic Life Support/First Aid training...but it ended up, I was one of the trainees :D have to undergo rappelling and firing too!

 prep for rappelling (improvised harness)

 my turn to rappel

 used up one magazine..

 ..and got bruises in my arm afterwards :D

A very tiring day but unforgettable! :)

My heart belongs to you...

Dear BF,

I'm planning to have it printed on my shirt. Hope you'll like it :)

Proud GF

A quick trip to Tagaytay City

An unplanned quick trip + no decent photo = memorable for me :D

memorable because...it's our first out of town trip (hopefully more to go!). Here's the resto where we had our late dinner.

I wonder how much they paid for this cottage??

in this particular area dining in will cost no less than PhP1250

 

instead we had our dinner here no minimum orders required :D

this is an excellent view if only I had a better digicam :(

overlooking Taal volcano (the smallest in the world)

Hopefully we'll have better photos on our next trip.

Isn't it obvious?

a few little things from the bf...

 meet Ceb 'd stuffed toy (Cebu Pacific Air's mascot) a shirt, a wing and ATR pin.

 meet them up close! :D

did I mention he's a pilot? isn't it obvious eh :D

Ceb - on-board

shirt/wing pin - from PAF

ATR pin - gifted

A visit to Philippine AirForce museum

Have no time to blog for quite sometime now due to busy schedule. I've attended a 1 week class, a field work and graduation.

But got a chance to unwind a little...:)

It so happen that I stayed near the airbase that's why I got a chance to visit the place in between my class schedule. The bf was also a former AF pilot so I was able to strolled at the base and museum, which I've been wanting long time ago :D (PAF museum is open to the public but not sure if you need to be escorted)...felt he missed his beloved work :)

The 3rd pic by the way is the presidential plane used by the Marcoses during their time :)

Tsumori Chisato walk thrifted

Again I got this mustard boots from thrift shop, Tsumori Chisato for $4 like new! though Philippines have only 2 seasons, the uber hot summer (whole year round :D) and the stormy months (from May to December)! hmm still a fan of boots (dreaming of fall and winter months just once pls...)

Hopefully I can take a photo outfit for this shoes it's been a while since I last posted an OOTD. I have lotsa thrifted stuff am just a little lazy to take photos :D

on another note:

currently our province is under signal #2...please typhoon  Pedring (international name: Nesat) leave our country ASAP and damage free or at least don't claim lives. God please spare us from another Ondoy disaster...

MIA x Thrifted

whoa been mia for a month?! quite busy and had no time to take my outfit photos :D though still on my thrifting hobby. I bought some and sell some :)...here's one of those..

a Rocket dog sandals, cute but tiny for my feet so I sell it instead :) I'll share the other finds on my next? blog :D

Post training outfit

I managed to take an OOTD photo after the whole day training I attended.

Thrifted this J.Crew long sleeve top, chiffon fabric, collared and ruffled deep v-neck somewhat an animal print (not sure :D) I wanted to remove the ruffles because it's too girly for my taste but decided to leave it as it is. I think it's serves as accessory so no need to don more blings. Just wore long necklace to cover my peeping cleavage :D paired it with my hobo fringed bag which is a thrift find also :)

I bought it the night before and I was kinda ecstatic to wear it so I washed it as soon as I got home and since it's a light weight fabric it dries up easily. Who would say it came fresh from the thrift store? :D Some of my colleagues didn't recognize me maybe they were used to seeing me in a boyish (my usual company provided uniform huh!)get up most of the time.

hah thrift shopping is soooo addicting I hate it! :/

Customized shoe: JC Burke

Ok so here's my customized shoe I've mentioned on my previous entry! Got it last Tuesday, I'm happy with the finished product in general though just a little bit disappointed with workmanship. I find some flaws that almost failed my quality criteria but since it's my first to have a customized shoe and it's first time for the shoemaker to make a platform heels, I'll defer my OCness for now. I'm planning to have another customized and my inspiration are already waiting! but not so soon...:)

As for the JC Burke (what?? who?? is he/she a shoe magnate?) Well he/she is not a known neither unknown shoe designer for your info :D...

I find Jeffrey Campbell's foxy shoes so enviable but I don't think I can afford such shoesies with my frugal mindset and petty income, that's next to impossible to buy :D...but of course I'm still hoping and wishing to shoefairy to grant me a JC foxy :D...anyways so, I 've also came across this photo of Brooke Burke's python heels (forgot the website failed :( )...



in short this is JC foxy and Burke's heels inpired shoes, hence the name - JC Burke heels! :D unfortunately no available snakeskin on the market. According to shoemaker it's banned! (hmm python and snakes becoming endangered species because of fashion? nay! :D..


I opted for nude leather instead :) JC for the heels and Burke's crisscross strap-open toe style (minus toe cleavage)...can't wait to wear this! just in time for the "godmother" thing by end of month :D
