Online Shopping: Zaful.com

The postman delivered this package today. Yay finally! I have been looking forward to receive this package from Zaful.com. It usually took a month for registered mail to arrive but impressively this package arrive 18 days and straight to my doorstep. I usually picked it up at the post office, so this is a double wow! I wonder if our local post office is really improving now. And yes I still paid the postal fee of PHP 100.00.
So what's inside? Its a retro sundress from Zaful.com. Yes! You got it right! Its yet another online shop discovery. I really love discovering and sharing new online shops specially if the experience is great.
Here's my review on the website:

• Free shipping worldwide.♥
• You can upload an OOTD shot for the clothes you purchase on their website. I usually take that as free blog promotion. ;)
• Price is a bit high compared to other online shop but its reasonable and worth it though because they dont charge for shipping fee on any price purchased.
• The quality of the dress is great! Just as what Ive expected. 
• I recommend visiting the Zaful SALE page because they got lots of great clothes on sale for a cheaper price.

What I Wore| Stripe Dress & Denim Vest

Attended two events today so opted for a comfortable outfit.
I attended the launching of Sony Bravia Android TV with fellow CDOBloggers. Its been a while since Ive attended launching events, so was looking forward to meet my fellow bloggers. We we're treated for lunch at Bigby's Restaurant right after and we had plenty of time to chat while enjoying the delicious buffet.
After lunch, me and some of the blogger friends stroll at the mall to look for a house warming gift for our fellow bloggers Ding and Bang. We were looking for a hand mixer because Bang just found a new hobby which is baking. We we're able to bought a cheaper and useful hand mixer at Ronbinsons Appliance. We headed to Ding and Bang's house right after and had fun.

What I Wore | Crop Top and Denim Maxi Skirt

One of the biggest struggles Ive had since I started fashion blogging is that a person who will take a photo of myself with my outfit of the day, a.k.a "my photographer". Im the type of blogger who post outfits I wore on that certain day/event. And I am not comfortable sharing photos that are mirror selfies on my blogs. I also like to capture my outfits at the venue/event where Ive worn that outfit.

I know I can bring a tripod to shoot myself but then it'll be a hassle specially for someone like me who doesnt own a car where I can just dumped extra belongings. My friends are not interested in taking photos for my outfits shots. And at times that Ive convinced them to help me, it doest help them making fun of my poses... Talking about boosting down your confidence when you need it the most. haha The struggle is serious I tell yah!

Every fashion bloggers has their own different ways in sharing outfit post. And this is how I want with mine which Im struggling at times to achieve. How about you? What are the challenges that you currently face on the niche that you are blogging for? If you have tips or suggestions for me please do drop them at the comment section below. I'll be glad to hear from you all.

What I Wore| Bodycon Skirt and Wedge Sneakers

It felt so good to finally share another outfit post.  Just recently had a new work that sticks to a schedule and requires me to wake-up early in the morning. So Im in a huge adjustment until now.

One Day At A Time

Its been awhile since me and my friends hangout. This was highly anticipated because we havent bonded in awhile, except for Dee and I coz we are preparing for her wedding. Most of us are busy with work and personal life recently. 

We are not complete though because one of our friend just lost her mom and she is still busy with post burial details. We are looking forward on hanging out with her so we can atleast comfort her. 

One of our friend, who initiated this meet-up, was in daze because of a bad news that she received. A friend ended his own life. 

The theme for this week is probably about life. On living life to it fullest. On the importance of support group called friends and love ones. On having faith. 

When your down and stress dont be hesitant to call on your trusted friends and love ones and pour out your feelings. Ask them for help and advice if you need it. And if you had to, cry it all out to them.

And when you are hesitant to ask help from your support group dont forget that you can always talk to God. Visit the church, prayer room or anywhere solemn. Even if your not religious rest assured that He will listen if you want to talk to him. Pray and ask for guidance and strength to help you surpass whatever it is that you are struggling now.

This world can be cruel. And life may gets tougher each day. Dont ask for questions if you cant find the answer. If pain and sorrow seems to be hard to bear you can always shut up your emotions and live life one day at a time. Soon someone or something will cure and fill in whatever is hurting and missing in your life. 

Live your life one day at a time, and no matter what just keep on breathing.

Hello Red Hair!

Finally saying goodbye to my accidental ombre hair color.... 

And saying hello to my new red mahogany brown hair color.

I had my first hair color at Ystilo Salon more than a year ago. And since I was satisfied by the service, I opted to comeback again to have my second hair color treatment.

What I Wore| White Dress & Mid-Calf Boots

Blogged earlier on Zee and Aya's wedding... Here's what I wore on that day.

The themed of the wedding was bohemian. And the motiff is green and champagne. 

The bride requested for a non-white dress for guest on the last minute. However, Dee and I just arrived from our Bohol escape and we dont have much time to shop for something green bohemian outfit. You know girls... need atleast weeks, or worst, months to prepare for something to wear on special occasions. ^_^
So we both ended wearing white dresses. I  settled for my white dress with lace and crochet details. Not bad since its so boho! This is what I originally plan to wear until the bride's request... that is. I was able to spot this green vest so I added it up to atleast have something green on my outfit. I actually taught of it as clever thing... but still the bride was still upset on me and Dee's as well as Risa's major white outfits weeks after the wedding. (facepalm) hahaha Sorry again Zee!

I owned this dress in awhile and I had only worn it once. I bought it at a thrifted shop. Talking about being a hunter. ;)

The mid-calf boots is my latest addition to my boots babies. It arrive last month, ordered it online.
