This maybe the last of my major make-up hauling for a while. I've ordered this back in November so they're technically not included in the current self-imposed shopping ban.

 I haven't talked about this "ban" here because I don't want to jinx it. But basically I can only spend a certain amount per month for the next  6-8 months or until I reach my goal. And it includes all shopping and food expense. I'm almost at my quota for January so I'm really trying to stay away from the mall and online shops. Wish me luck.

Hi guys. Sorry for neglecting the blog. I know the last quickie post is unacceptable. I have been experiencing blogging block lately. And I've also been lazy in dressing up. Just those moments I guess. Also I've been preoccupied with some other stuff. Oh gawd, those are a lot of excuses. 

Anyways...

I've gotten a couple of request (maybe from the same person?) to do lipstick swatches here. Do any of you wanna see that? I'm not really good at it (yet). My camera is quite old and the colors aren't as acurate in real life. But if a lot of you wanna see that I can try. Or I can suggest a couple of blogs that do excellent swatch photos. Lemme know. :)

And....

I'm plannin to do my 2011 Beauty Favorites. I know it's a little late in the month already. I just haven't found the time to take photos yet. 

Lastly...

I miss you all. Will put in more time to comment on your blogs. Promise. That's all for now.

Oh, yes yes I did. I wore my Lita in a formal event.

corset: H&M
skirt: Forever21
gold beaded cuff and clutch: Accessorize
shoes: Jeffrey Campbell

I had to attend a wedding about 2 weeks ago and had nothing to wear. Since I'm trying to save up for a new camera, I didn't really wanna spend money on a dress I was going to wear only once. I actually found a really nice dress but decided last minute not to buy it and just do some digging on my closet. 

This skirt has got to be one of my most favorite Forever21 purchase. It's so easy to dress up or dress down, and doesn't emphasize my hips like most maxi skirts do. And this corset I would wear more often if only my boobies (is there a more appropriate term??) would stop jumping off the cups everytime I do. 

Anyways...

Call me crazy but I seriously wore my Lita with this outfit. I really wanted something comfortable, plus you can't even see the shoes when I'm not holding up my skirt. Win-win for me. 

Ok....

I clearly am obsessed. I need to find a super comfy and pretty sparkly shoes for my sisters wedding. Dear Jeffrey Campbell, I wait for the day.

And...

My apologies for the very grainy photos. The sun was setting down already so I had no choice but to use a very high ISO setting. 

Lastly...

I wish I had time to curl my hair everyday...

You may have already seen what I wore on New Years Eve from this POST...but this is the full body photo of it. This was supposed to be my Christmas outfit but I didn't think it was Church-appropriate so I ended up wearing this on our family reunion.

 I've had my eye on this shorts since October (I think) but I didn't have an occasion to wear it for so I always pass on it. BUT come December, I got obsessed with it. Obsessed, I tell you. I keep trying to find something similar in other shops but to no avail. So 2 days before Christmas, I went back to Forever21 and got half-blinded with all the sequined clothes they had. I seriously had trouble finding this particular sparkly shorts. Good thing my cousin was able to snag it from some random rack and it was my size! Yay for having shopping buddies with sharp eyes. 

Ok that was seriously a long blah blah moment about a pair of shorts.

Anyways, notice the new banner? I'm hoping it'll be temporary. My blog needs some serious revamping. Parang hindi ako web-designer sa itsura niya ngayon. It's one of the goals of 2012. Hopefully I can come up with a design in a month.

AAAAAND, a little tip. If you edit your POSTS in HTML, make sure all your
are closed. Blogger usually warns you if you happen to overlook it, DON'T IGNORE!!! Because if you do, the result would be your right/left column would be placed at the bottom.  

My layout got seriously screwed up just because I left one hanging. I kept trying to look at my design codes and saw nothing wrong with it. I even reverted to the default one but it was still there. Thank you google for providing the answer. It drove me MAAAAD. 

Anyways, off to yoga in a bit...Talk to you all soon.
