#ShoeSelfie: Leather Ankle Boots from SammyDress.com Finally Arrive!

Today's one of those days when I wake up feeling tired or should I say stress from problems, but ended feeling blessed by the end of the day. Since I'm stuck with no solution to my problem I shrug it off, continue on daily routine and trust I'll find solutions along the way... Im so glad I did with an added bonus that made me smile.

Happiness in the box!

The leather ankle boots that I ordered at SammyDress.com last December arrived today at the Post Office and they message me earlier to pick it up. Wohhooo! This is my second attempt in purchasing shoes online the first one is from Romwe of which was successful and now this one from Sammy Dress. There are lots to choose from but why shoes on my initial order? I just cant resist ordering the boots from SammyDress because there are a lot of affordable and stylish boots. And you know I cant resist boots specially if the style is not yet on my collections. ^_^

Locally my shoe size is 6 but I ordered size 37 on SammyDress.com. Which was just the right size, no more no less. The quality is good, no flaws. Though there was a  little tear strip on the side of the package probably someone wants to get a peek on its contents. Good thing though the box is thick.

A new baby is born... Camel Ankle Boots

Ohhh! I cant wait to wear this on my next outfit shots. 

Have you tried ordering at SammyDress.com?

New Hairstyle from Ystilo Salon

New year new look as they say... #TryNewThings2014

Went to Ystilo Salon to use my gift certificate for a mani and pedi but I ended up having a new hairstyle after I went out at the Salon. :D Well, I was actually thinking of a hair spa with my mani and pedi to consume all the amount in my GC but then the people in the salon suggested why not a hair makeover for a new look this new year.

DALLAVAGS

My friends from college invited me for a Christmas party. It was a karaoke night since the party was held at Willsbar KTV. This gathering dont usually happen since lately everyone has been busy with each career and family, infact 2 are missing out because they are not in town.

This probably one of my few appearance on every events Dallavags has. Ever since before I have always been the "bee", jumping from one group to another group of friends. I could say I have lots of barkada's and they all stick together as time goes by while as for me I'm still flying everywhere. I more often miss out a lot so when I came in my usual reaction and response was "Really? I didn't know that?".



December is also the birthday of 2 of our barkada's Carol and Red so opted to celebrate it also. I even joked that in 2014 Christmas party should be celebrated in September so I can have my birthday cake too. hehe



I was so busy on that day that I really taught I couldn't make it. And since I had so many things to do, I opted for an outfit that is comfortable and casual. This probably my usual get-up lately, top with blazer and a shorts.

Theme of the Year: #TryNewThings2014

This photo is from Bianca Gonzales instagram. She shared this article that she wrote for December 2013 Editor's Note for Meg Magazine. I find this more attainable and exciting instead of making a New Year's resolutions.

I was thinking of #Focus2014 to be my theme of the year but then I also like #TryNewThings2014. I ended choosing the later because I need to break away with some things in the past... Lets just say I tend to focus on certain things so much which most of the time gave me heartaches and not good feelings in the end. So this year as much as I want to focus on a to different aspects in my life I think I need to change some of it first before I will focus on it. And besides, Ive been dealing with diverting my attention to different aspects in my life that until now still unsuccessful. Guess this is a sign... ^_^

And so I will #TryNewThings2014!

What will your theme this year be?

2014 Blog Wishlist

What I want to achieve for my blog this 2014...

1. Blog more. Last year, I have so many things to blog for but was lazy to even just update pictures of it.

2. Find a "photographer". Since I started fashion blogging I realized it was not easy when your in this journey alone. You need to have supporters and paparazzi. :D Other fashion bloggers got their boyfriend, sibling and assistant who took their outfits shots. Sadly, I got none of the mentioned person. Hopefully I can have someone who will take my outfit shots this year. If you have the same dilemma I'm open for collaboration just message me!;)

3. Own a tripod. An alternative for number 2 is the tripod. Some fashion bloggers took their outfit shots with their tripod so why not try it right?

4. Video blogging. I have lots of videos stored in my external hard drive. It's probably not to late to edit and share them. And yes hopefully capture more and share it here in my blog. :)

5. Master photography. Last year, I manage to get some items in my wishlist one of which is a DSLR camera. This year I should make use of it and enhance my photography skills.

6. Plan! I'm not a planner type of person. I tried buying a planner before but it all ended in my drawer... Dusted and bored to death with no plans written on it. This year will yet again try to be a planner bit by bit until I'll get use to it. I didn't buy a planner notebook for myself but a blogger friend gave one as a gift. Now I have another reason to really use it. ^_^

7. Travel places. So I can use my planner! haha I should seriously try this to gave my life a different scenario. Will start with nearby places maybe in Cagayan de Oro and hopefully if budget permits go national and then international. (*crossing fingers*)

8.Share more. Until now Im still searching for reasons and trying to bring back my enthusiasm to blogging. I really can't figure out why it took me so long to find that enthusiasm in sharing things in my blog. Hopefully, this year I can share more in my blog with the help ofcourse of my "photographer", tripod, planner and travel experiences.

9. Companion. All this things I listed would be much more fun and possible if I have a companion who'll support my crazy adventures. It doesn't have to be a boyfriend (though I'm praying for one.. :P) but whoever who is willing to share their time with me.

10. Go out! I shouldn't just work in my home office, or dining room table. I should take my laptop to the mall, or coffee shop once a week or so.

Kris Kringle Gift

Blogged earlier about CDOBloggers Night 2013: Thanksgiving Party... In connection to that will be showing you the gift I've received from our Kris Kringle. Before that though, let me tell you about the rules on our gifts. Everyone are encouraged to bring gifts and the gift must have an amount of PHP 49.75 excluding the wrappers or gift bag. You should also bring the proof of purchase for whoever cant bring the exact amount will be punish. Exciting right?

The gift that I've received is an awesome addition for my #OOTD's. A bracelet! It still had its tag on for PHP 49.75, bought at SM Department Store. It's so cool and I (obviously) like it.  The gift is from our newbie CDOBlogger member James. And speaking of, let me introduce to you our fresh and young newbie members of CDOBloggers... James and Andrew. James into food blogging and Andrew is into fashion.

CDOBloggers Night 2013: Thanksgiving Party

CDOBloggers Night 2013: Thanksgiving Party went punk fashion. I actually suggested the dress code because wearing punk will go well with the venue the Chills Music & Video Family KTV. ^_^ I went all black with my punk fashion, black off shoulder top and black shorts. My shorts has traces of brown threads which compliments my brown boots. For accessories I added a colorful spike bracelet, spike ring, cross ring and a rings chain necklace (which in this look I use as a belt. I just find it more comfortable to wear it as belt than wear it as necklace) to complete the look.

Okay so what's with the last 2 photos?! Will they ask us (who are wearing punk fashion) to showcase our style. Seriously! Im not good at doing this. Anyways, here are some photos of the event.
