Bicol Trip

Long time no post. Haha. So here's a travel post once again. I've been in quite some places these days huh. Haha so me and my family went to Bicol for personal purposes (dont wanna share why, i wanna keep it private).

Anyways, Bicol region is so beautiful and the air is so fresh and the water is really cold in the morning. We traveled 10 hours from Cavite to Polangui, Albay my dad's hometown. I swear, in my 4 days in Bicol, we just eat eat eat aside from shopping and touring. Haha. On our first day, we visited Mayon Volcano. It is located in Legazpi, Albay. Its a 30 minute ride from Polangui (moderate traffic). The scenery is so beautiful and we arrived early at 11am, so there are only few people, when we arrived theres only two. And we managed to get a lot pics it seems like we rented the whole place. After about 2 hours, a tourist bus came. Good thing we finished picture taking and buy souvenirs and decided to leave and go to Gaisano Mall to eat for lunch. Anyways,  here are the pics.

Our personal bag for the trip. :) Guess which is mine?

Next pictures are so cute and funny. Its all about angles you know?

Outfit Advice

For today's Outfit advice series lets discuss all about the theme or nature of every girls outfit.
One thing to consider in dressing up is what would be the event, the place and time you have to dress for. It could be attending to a party to just a stroll in the mall. The list is limitless. Anyhow, let me tell you the things to have for a specific event.

Lets focus to one things at a time. So first is if you are just planning to have a get together with friends on daytime, just like watching movies, going to karaoke and more.  Heres the pieces I advise that you should have in your closet and you should wear aside from a printed or plain colored tee (thats given):

1. Bag
Go with a medium sized bag, just the size that can fit your necessary things like cellphone, makeup kits, wallet and other things. Go with plain colored satchel. Or this bag in the pictures. Credits here 

2. Flats 
A staple for every girl. Wear flats according to your outfit, if your outfit color is neon go with neutral, after all you dont want to look like a clown. Wear things accordingly.

3. Oxfords
If you're bored enough to wear flats go with oxfords, it is now unisex and they can take you from casual, indie, hip, polished or any style you want.  Credits here

4. Shorts
Invest in good shorts, not only it shows how toned and good looking your legs, it also feels nice to wear shorts since it will not be hot. Remember to also consider the length and style. Pick shorts that is easy to style and usually the formula for this is: ombre shorts=plain tee, denim shorts=printed tee or sleeveless. Credits here

First up, wear something comfortable, this way you dont have to restrict your self from moving. Wearing comfortable means, wear your favorite color, your favorite bag, favorite shoes. But consider the colors and the style you wanted to create. For just a stroll in the mall, it has to be just simple, dont go dressy. Hope this helps!


For the next Outfit Advice Series...keep posted guys. :)

Print and Neutral

Chunky Weather

"Since its chilly here in PH, here's a lazy but comfy outfit. Although this is an easy look to pull out, the colors must be considered. Lazy wearing sholudnt mean dark or unlively color. Since its cold, trying wearing hot or bright color for that pop and for you not to feel so cold and try to be neutral with other things in your outfit like this skin toned bag and sneakers. They go along right.Since this is for lazy laidback look for a chill weather I intended the set to be just simple. Hope you like it."

Quezon Trip Part 2

After we went in Kamay ni Hesus, we had our lunch at my Lola's house then visited my Lolo at the cemetery. After visiting my Lolo in the cemetery, we went first to Kuya Jeffrey and Ate Marra's house. They cooked pancit habhab and spring rolls and I must say its so delicious!

Our visit looks like a mini reunion of my mother's side.

Their 2nd child Zenzen (nickname only)! So cute! She looks like my mom. Really

Their 3rd child. Peyzen. Weird nickname but it is actually the
combination of their first and second child's nickname.
Peypey is not here because she was at her lola's house.

Cutie patottiee!

Dave, Mom and Zenzen. Told you they look alike.

Such a cute smile.

Jheannie, me, mama and zenzen. Not yet retouched face haha.

Our Happy faces.

After we went there, we decided to go to Sampitan Beach at Brgy. Casiguay and I must say the scenery, the beach, the sound was perfect. It was so refreshing and I wished I had my swimwear or extra clothes, I want to swim. We are just smiling and picture taking all the time. And the fun part you can swim for free! Wow talk about enjoying without even a cost.

On our way down. Quite adventure going down. Dont know what rock to step.
But fun. I think its my first time experiencing this

Another photo. Kuya Rj was such a gentleman helping us to get down.

The beach was so huge and there is an island i think 10km away. And that island is white sand. Cool right? You dont need to go to Boracay just to have white sand. But since we are only given a limited time, we didnt went there anymore.

The beach can you imagine the sound. So good and its music to my ears.

Love this shot.

My bro. He is obviously happy.
Its been a long time since we went on the beach.

Stole a shot haha. They're happy playing in the beach.

Did you like the beach. I know you did. So I think and I must say this is one of the places you must visit in the Philippines. Its a 4-5 hr ride from Cavite- Quezon and 4-5 hr ride going back.
