Our "Ironic Taffy" Nail Polish

Brand: None Price P10.00 wow! haha
Should only be placed on the pinky! haha Its too hoochie if you put it on all your nails ;P


Inspired by the movie Drop Dead Diva, we came across this awesome nail polish from Regina's Gift Shop in Greenhills that looks kinda like "Ironic Taffy" but more on the greener shade. The characters Deb and Stacy colored their pinky with this yummy nail polish color for good luck. :) Hope this brings us good luck this week! I'm actually not allowed by the hospital to have color on my nails but who can stop me? :P 

Love,
China



Monday Holiday

It feels so great not to have work on a Monday. Today, our dad invited us to have lunch at Emperor (Wilson St.) and have some Serenitea after. We then decided to go to the Greenhills Tiangge and run some errands (we didn't shop for unnecessary things even if we wanted to!!). It was a good thing that it so hot inside the mall so we didn't get to stay long.

Here are some pics of our Monday get ups: 

On Cristalle: Dress with pockets BKK Skimmers Keds Brown highwaist belt Mango
When we go to greenhills, I always make sure I wear something light and breezy. I also try to wear a dress so that I can easily fit pants or shorts and I wear slip on flat shoes such as my keds sneakers so I don't have to struggle to remove my shoes and to put them back on when I need to a fit a pair of footwear in the overcrowded "tiangge". 
On China: Pink top/dress BKK Green shorts F&H Sandals Mendrez
I always want to be comfortable especially when going around places that are packed and hot. A cute knit top and a pair of shorts was perfect for this day in Greenhills. The color motif for the day was green and pink :) My favorite colors!
On Ivorie: Top with lace back NY Brown weaved belt BKK Brown loose pants White Bag China Town NY Sunglasses i2i
I knew we were going to eat something heavy for lunch and so I decided to wear loose pants with a semi loose top. Looks like a regular top to you? NOT! Take a look at the lace detail on the back. Should I have worn something inside because my bra is seen on the back? People might react that it's too revealing or something. But oh well, wore it as is anyway!

 For our last stop inside the mall, we went to REGINA'S in Shoppesville to reminisce on our favorite childhood store. They have everything from little trinkets, pens, notebooks, stickers, candies and accessories. Look at what Cris found and bought..

Voodoo Doll bracelet Php 70

Cristalle: Inspired by the South African obsession with voodoo dolls, this accessory adds more to my dressed down look.

We hope you have a great week ahead! Only 4 more days until the weekend! :)


Love,

CRISTALLE: Ponti Night


Cristalle: It was raining outside and as usual, I didn't know what to wear.  I wore my glittery stirrup leotards and put my pinkish orange long spaghetti strap on top. I didn't feel comfortable wearing a tight outfit because my flabs will show (hehe) so I looked through my closet and found a white cover-up I bought a year ago in the Bangkok Chatuchak market. I actually thought of giving it away during our last cabinet clean-up session but I decided to keep it. I put on a thick belt to add a little shape to my outfit and wore brownish booties to match my belt.To top of the outfit, I put on some casual assorted Kabbalah inspired accessories and simple dangling earrings.

Classic Friendship Bracelets

Long before making friendship bracelets became popular, these neon friendship cords were already a big hit with the American kids. If you had one, you probably came back from a vacation in the US or had a balikbayan relative take home a few for you. But now it one item that me and my sisters share as a sign of our friendship! :) The pink one is my favorite! -China

Sunday Brunch

China: Sunday for me means wearing my Sunday's Best. I got this black maxi dress with my cousin Sabs at The Landmark a year ago. I love that place. They have EVERYTHING! To add a little oomph to my outfit I wore a black and gold weaved belt, green sandals and a couple of chunky bracelets. I threw in a scarf to show my colorful personality :D The sunglasses was really an essential for the day because it was very sunny out. This outfit was inspired by a gray maxi dress worn by Vanessa Hudgens while doing errands ;)

Black Maxi Dress from The Landmark, Colorful Scarf from Bangkok Market, Belt from Greenhills Tiangge
Green Sandals from Mendrez, Peace Leather Bracelet from Coney Island, NY Street Market Chunky Rope Bracelet with Charms from Facebook Market (Hobby Loft)

Cristalle: Sundays are the best! Why? Because not only is it the day of the week for giving thanks to God for all the blessings he has showered upon us during the week but its also the day when I reward myself after working out the whole week at the gym...by having an awesome brunch with the family! We were about to go to Tagaytay and I didn't know what to wear.  I just wanted to make sure I wore something comfy and "pig-out" friendly. So I chose my stone-washed jeggings and a loose sweater. I felt a bit colorless so I grabbed my lime green sports bra and put it under to add a little color to my gray outfit. I added more color by choosing my Sanuks with a rainbow print as footwear and a slim wrap-around bracelet and neon green friendship bracelet and dangling statement earrings which that said "Peace" for my accessory.

Sweater Top from Topshop, Stonewashed Jeggings from Hong Kong, Lime Green Sports Bra from People Are People, Shoes by Sanuk, Black Wrap Magnetic Clasp Bracelet from Jeweler, Aviators from RayBan, Earrings from Forever 21
Ivorie: I didn't really think about what I was going to wear. My dad was rushing us that morning to reach the 7:30 am mass at Pink Sisters Tagaytay. I later realized that I had a theme going on. Please don't mind my face, I didn't have any make up on. hahaha! (P.S I love these flats from SUELAS. Super comfy!! Check them out at http://www.suelasonline.com )
