Life or Something like it

Life must go on, but i don't feel like it should be now.
Last night i braved watching the news. It broke me more than i thought something this huge can ever put my heart to great sorrow. I know we all are. We're all mourning. And as each and everyone mourns differently i want to do my part. Am saying goodbye for a while. You all know what my blog is all about. I can't blog about clothes and what am wearing when thousands of Filipinos has nothing to wear. It's just not right.

Give me days or weeks or a month. I will be back. It doesn't feel enough just to give, giving isn't enough till some part of you hurts and am desperately wanting to give more than what am capable of. Honestly and shamefully on my part, i have never sacrificed anything in great lengths to help people i don't know. I think it's time to step out of my comfort zone.

Ill miss blogging. Ill miss you. But ill see you again.

Do me a favor and kiss and hug and smell the people you love so dearly. We can't be certain of what tomorrow is. Life is a bubble.

HELP

I do not live in Metro Manila, but thousands of families lost their homes and loved ones in the flood. We're all heartbroken by these. In just 5 hours of non stop rain people's lives will never be the same.
A little comparison so you can see the PICTURE.
Hurricane Katrina rainfall = 380mm
Typhoon Ketsana rainfall = 410mm.

Please we need all the donations you can give.

We need your help.

Minnie. As in the Mouse.

• So this is what i wore last Friday on our Anniversary dinner. It's yellow, such vintage for its design and i love polka dots, and good cos it's making its way now again on the runway. The best part is i got this on thrift. Yey! 90php (2$). Yellow and dots makes me happy and giddy and excited. I can never imagine wearing this dress and sulk the whole time. Just not possible.
• Anyway the date was quick. Typhoon was coming, and here in the province strong wind is an understatement. Why? Cos it's not just wind, but some branches of trees flying along with it, we just can't take the chance driving home in the middle of the storm and avoiding toppled electrical posts and trees. We've experienced that three years ago and it scared the hell out of me. I was so sure i was gonna die..... Okay. Over acting on my part. hihihiih. But really, i did.
• We're supposed to go to this farm to photograph this outfit but we never made it cos quite unexpectedly of the heavy rain and angry wind that started on a Friday afternoon. Frankly i was not aware that it's flooding already in Metro Manila if not from my pregnant friend who's by the way already experiencing contraction since Friday. That really got me so worried. I just prayed for the safety of all my friends living in the Metro area especially for her not to give birth yet till the flood situation got stabilized first.
• So where is Minnie Mouse coming in all these? Isn't it obvious? I am her. When we got home i saw my mirror reflection one last time before changing and thinking my outfit looks specifically like ....something. I kept thinking and i saw the Tom and Gerry dvd sitting on our bed and OMG i am dressed like Minnie Mouse. Total copy cat. hihihhihi. Am telling you the discovery was hilarious. Okay see for yourself.

All i need is a pink bow, mouse ear and tail and am good for Halloween. hihihihi. Brilliant right?
Am i a cartoon or a loony or a mouse?
hihihhii.
It all came back to me. While we're on a date, obviously I am Minnie, Husband is Mickey and Koffy is Pluto. hihihihi. Cos we took him with us. Maybe that's the reason we got all those stares.

well, am really hoping everyone is safe now and dry.

Philippines, my fellow countrymen, hope this Minnie Mouse outfit of mine puts a little smile on your face even for just a while. And to everyone have a great cartoony day!

• Drove to the city to have lunch with one of the best friends, only got stuck in traffic that led to a late lunch date, so in order not to shock the empty stomach we ate cupcakes while window shopping and forgot to take a decent outfit photo. So photos forgotten and still fidgeting from hunger we sat at Krispy Kreme, ate doughnuts and drank lots of iced latte. Am thinking after over feeding ourselves with sugar and dough, lunch should be light and healthier than sugar. But the pregnant best friend's baby (still inside her bump) decided she wants a pizza. So yeah! More dough and double serving of cheese is the best way to end the frenzy carb load fest. hihihi. Pregnancy and hormones....
  
• Btw i thrift this jacket. 70php (1.5$). I am soooooo HAPPY! I am thinking the first owner of this jacket is into crazy stone and chain embellishments and the love for US army. I don't have the heart to remove the added design. I like things with history. Cute ei?
• Another DIY necklace. Quiapo is the place to be. hihihhii.

HAve a great Sunday ladies and gents!

ps,

Thank you all so much for the sleeping advice you all gave me. I think am making great improvements. Two nights ago i went to bed at 9, slept around 10 and woke up at 12 midnight for i am sooooo hungry. So i grabbed the first food i saw. The apple. I think with each cracking bite i made, husband is slowly waking up. hihihi. Next time am going for bananas.

ps2,

Coming soon.
Let's hope for a girl this time.
Dots and bumps are everywhere.

Preview Autumn/Winter 2009

Scanned from September Issue Preview Magazine Philippines

Well there is no Autumn and Winter season here in this hot place called Philippines, but that can't stop us from loving this collection.

Personally am attracted to the bib necklaces shown here, the polka dot pattern, of course the tulip skirts, the RED lips, the SHOULDERS, all the colors and the frills and the ruffles. Well basically all, minus the thigh high boots, coats and the impossibly warming leather and feather. As i have said, it is humid HOT here. So, as much as we can, we try to collaborate style and weather appropriate clothes.

So all you gorgeous ladies out there outside the Philippines, feast on these scans. hihihi.

Have a wonderful day!
