#EBloggersBall 2018 | WINNERS + PHOTOS
During last year’s E! Bloggers Ball 2017, I came with my thesis partner Deki because I was “single & broken”. It was dark times for me that’s why I wore an all-black attire with matching plum lipstick. But after 2017 ended with a pleasant twist. This year started with a romantic bang! It’s a minor dream of mine to attend a celebrity ball with a date. Sure it’s fun going solo! But to experience it with someone you love would be a delight. Then my anxiety kicked in while writing this and all sorts of paranoia came in my head. What would happen next year? or the year after? You really can’t tell eh. Might…

What’s New? #AromAway The Stress with Danarra Aromatherapy Oil
Most Filipino workers go through the average daily grind. This begins with the average two-hour commute to the office, doing their 9-6 pm jobs, and another two-hour commute to get home. It’s easy to imagine how stressful moments can fit into these daily routines. To cope with stress, we all have our ways of dealing with it. Some people enjoy a nice dessert, go for a workout, watch a movie, or spend time with friends and family. Effective as these may be, they aren’t things that you can easily do in any situation. Look into the pockets or purses of young professionals and you will likely find a soothing balm. For many,…

FASHION: UNIQLO LIFEWEAR FALL/WINTER 2018 COLLECTION
uniqlo fall winter 2018 I am not ashamed to confess that 60% of the clothes in my closet are from UNIQLO. It all started back in 2008 when I was addicted to jeans, then a popular pinoy forum (PEx or Pinoyexchange.com) mentioned that UNIQLO offers affordable but quality denim. Now back then it wasn’t available in the Philippines yet so all my haul was bought in Singapore. When I used to work there. Fast forward to the present, I’m still in love with the brand (and influenced my son macho kid too!). Getting invited to a sneak peek on UNIQLO’s Fall/Winter 2018 Collection got me all giddy and made my hands all itchy to…

SANICARE PLAY DAY!
Hi everyone! Last month, Geof and I were invited to Sanicare Playday held at Green Sun Hotel Makati. Now I don’t usually bring macho kid to events unless he really wants to and I know he’ll have the best time! It’s part of balancing my role as both a mom and a blogger.

Today I’ll share with you some tips if you’re planning to bring your kids to an event and also our Sanicare Playday experience! Macho kid is an unico ijo (only child) and since we live in the province with barely any neighbors around. He’s always excited to meet new…
Photo Diary: Mama and Baba Goes to Toys R Us Philippines Alabang Opening!
Macho Kid was delighted to discover that we were invited again by Toys R Us Philippines for one of their events. This time around, it’s for the opening of their new branch, Toys R Us Festival Mall Alabang (second floor, Z-entrance). There was lots of food, freebies, and fun.

Toys R Us Philippines Alabang Opening I’m saying this without any bias. Toys R Us is our favorite toystore in the Philippines. Why? Their staff is friendly, approachable and knowledgable. Their…
Amazing Avon at 40 | Did You Know I Was an Avon Lady Before?
I was an Avon lady. This was back in college when I sold their cosmetics and products in school. For extra income of course. We weren’t well-off and I proudly graduated from a public university.
