Meet my Outfit No. 1

gwing — Sat, 30 May 2009 17:54:59 +0000

During a vacation last year, I was in a very tight budget. So, every time I go to stores, I first go to their sale rack.
I found my top in Hollister Co., on sale for $9.90. The Forever 21 dark blue jeans on the other hand, wasn’t on sale but it came at a reasonable price of $19.80. I bought my sandals at about Php 550, which is really cheap considering I bought it from Chimes.

Put everything together and voila!

So, what do you think?:D

General Santos Here I Come!

I really wasn’t planning on going to the Mindanao Bloggers Summit 2 since I thought I would be having a looooooong discussion with my mom and dad when I ask permission from them. Well, a few days ago, I told my mom that I wanted to go and she said, “we’ll see.” I was pretty hopeful then. During lunch yesterday, she told me we were going to Buda on Saturday. I got so worried and so, I brought the whole General Santos thing again and she asked if it was really going to push through and I said yes. She asked me the details and I told her and she said yes! oh yes! hahaha.:) SEE YOU SOON GEN SAN!

The first Mindanao Bloggers Summit was held here in Davao and it was a success..:D (Yey, I helped a bit because I was a volunteer then..:D) I’m looking forward to MBS2. See you there!:D

Washday Wednesday

gwing — Fri, 11 Jul 2008 13:24:05 +0000

In school, we wear our uniform. When we are in our civilian clothes (during Wednesdays), we are still bound to some rules. The major rule is do not wear anything too revealing. Well, sleeveless for them is too revealing. So I end up wearing t-shirts because these are the most comfortable un-revealing clothes I have.

Peace, Love, & Music Tee ($12.99)

Retro Neon Tee ($10.00)

Musical Note Tee ($10.00)

Rock Music Tee ($10.00)

Comic Expression Tee ($10.00)

These are the ones that I’d love to break the rules with.:D

Sequin Top (19.99)

Swirl Soutache Top ($21.99)

Crochet Halter Top ($19.99)

Burnout Babydoll Dress ($29.99)

Apple Bottom Jeans

Ehem.. “Apple Bottom Jeans (jeans), boots with the fur (with the fur), the whole club was lookin at her.. She hit the flo (She hit the flo), next thing you know, Shawty got low low low low low low low low!” ehem..:D A lot of people know about Apple Bottom Jeans but it gained more popularity because of this song.

For me, it’s not as great as people think it is. Some are just too outrageous for me, while others are just.. too simple. I only found a few items that caught my attention.

Hand Signed Special Nelly Jeans ($150)

Apple Pocket Jean ($59)

Apple Pocket Jean/Royal Purple

Apple Pocket Bermuda ($59)

This dress looks good on the model. I wonder, though, how it would look on ordinary people?

Print Alaia Dress ($48)

Giving Shoppers a Hassle-Free Experience

Installing an efficient POS software is key to giving shoppers a hassle-free experience. A good POS software will extremely reduce the chances of slow checkouts and unhappy customers. Thus providing customers a fast and efficient service that will ultimately lead to a growing number of loyal shoppers.

Not only will the point of sale system be helpful to the customer but also the business itself. It can simplify the inventory management system, amplify its marketing efforts, and reduce bookkeeping and accounting work, while enjoying an increase in the number of customers.

These will help the company operate properly and efficiently for the customers and for the business.

Fashion Icons

gwing — Fri, 06 Jun 2008 16:39:40 +0000

About a week ago, I watched the Sex and the City Movie. I am not an avid fan of the tv series but I have watched it several times and have grown fond of it. Ever since I saw the movie trailer, I was so excited about it. The clothes, shoes, bags, accessories, and the things they wore… I envied. Although I think some of their outfits are over-the-top, I see these four women as ultimate fashion icons of our generation.

Sexy Shoes by Alexander McQueen

I have envied people wearing high heels for years now. I find it very attractive but when I wear one, my feet and legs hurt pretty badly. So, I try to avoid them as much as I could. I am a woman though, so SOMETIMES I couldn’t care less if my feet hurt just as long as I look good wearing those pointy heels.:D Here are some of my picks from Alexander McQueen’s collection, including some equally eye-catching bags.

Black/Gold ‘Skull’ clutch and Black/Gold patent chain sling back

Gold drape chain peep toe shoe and Gold drape chain peep toe sling back

Grey/Red Prince of Wales check court shoe and Grey/Red Prince of Wales check peep toe shoe

Fuchsia patent ‘Skull’ clutch and Fuchsia/black patent court shoe

Black/Purple patent satin trimmed court shoe and Black/Purple patent peep toe and ankle strap

Black/Fuchsia/Purple patent ‘Blow’ bag, Grey/Red Prince of Wales check ‘Issie’ Clutch, Taupe leather ‘Blow’ bag, and Purple patent croc embossed ‘ELVIE’ bag
