Philippine Fashion Week Day 1 + my birthday + inkarlcerating + behind the scenes

we [kat & I] were at SMX to help out with the committee on Philippine Fashion Week from 12pm up to 10pm.
we were assigned at the registration area at the far right side.

thank you Agie for inviting us! :) yay!

we met Paul & Chris (hala! i'm very sorry i forgot your name! i'm not sure if it's really Chris. forgive me please!) outside function room 1. they were standing there, so we approached them.
kat introduced ourselves (that we were the same person they've met few weeks ago at Greenbelt 3), then asked where karl is. :D they told us that he is already on his way. :)
they also asked me why i wasn't wearing a Soule Phenomenon boots. i think Paul told me to contact karl so i could get a discount. :O [in my mind: naku wag na po, hihi]. i would love to have the inkarlcerating wedge boots, unfortunately, they only have a size 6 left. :( if ever they had it in my size (which is 8 or 8 1/2), it'd be my birthday gift for myself (oct. 26! today! yey!). :)


we already went back to our assigned area. few minutes later, kat was pointing at someone and then keeps on saying "si karl! si karl!". then i was like "omg! asan?! asan?!" i couldn't see him at first because there were a lot of people. but then there he is... he's wearing all white while his friends are wearing all black from head to toe. :)

we had an assignment, our task is to email Don Protasio & Arnel Zulieta PFW invites. :)

Skylar Strap Boot by Lower East Side for my birthday!!

okay, so tomorrow is my 22nd birthday, and look what my bestfriend got for me! :)

she asked me what i wanted, and i told her that i was in love with these pair of beauties!
it's gorgeous in actual! and it is really really comfortable! i got a size 8.5 by the way. :)
just making sure that i have enough room to wiggle my toes, i don't want them to be all snugged up at the end of the shoe.
and also because i'm having problems with sizes lately. :))


i shall wear them tomorrow on Philippine Fashion Week.
we [kat and I] have to be at the venue at 12noon to help in the said event. therefore, we won't be dressing up for the event, instead, we will be there ahead of everybody to arrange the place, and make sure everything is ready for the 5pm event. :)
we will be there with Agie. :)

again, thank you Marrisse Garchitorena (Atimarsh as i call her)

for the wonderful gift for my birthday! :)

Peep Toe Wedges by Forever 21

remember (in my previous post) i said "black"?

here it is.
when i saw this color, i could hear the angels singing. :))
it looks clean and fresh! :)
LIGHT BROWN.
it was really really nice!

and so, my new problem was "black or light brown"?

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Distressed Leatherette Boots by Forever 21

finally, we were able to buy this pair of boots for kat.

she didn't buy it the first time we saw them. but when we got home, i was regretting of not buying it for her.
the following week, we were about to purchase them. only to find out that they already had the mannequin wear it. and that, there was someone who already had it reserved, so kat was on the waiting list. :(

but 2 days ago, we went back to F21 to check if there are new stocks of shoes.

sad to say, that same mannequin was wearing a different style of shoes, so we assumed that the first person who reserved the boots has already taken it.
we even saw the same F21 employee whom kat gave her number to. she sincerely apologized for not informing kat anything regarding the item.


and so, i was busy trying on these pair of black peep toe wedges. i couldn't make up my mind whether i'm getting a size 7 or a size 8.

after a few minutes, the F21 employee called kat and handed her the gray boots. kat was so happy. yey. happy happy joy joy,, and so on.. :))
yes, we bought it! :) she wouldn't put down the beauties (fyi).

Charles & Keith

 

i got so lucky yesterday.

i was supposed to buy a new pair of unbranded shoes worth more than 2,800php from an online shop last wednesday, october 6. i was so sure that i want those! but i couldn't transact with the seller that day because we [kat & i] were supposed to meet our mom at gateway, cubao. i left the computer on so that when we get back, i'd be able to contact the seller immediately.

oh, our mom needs a new top from marks and spencer for their annual meeting/convention in ministop (which was always held at SMX), this is also why we were at gateway.
after buying a PLAIN top from M&S, we passed by Charles & Keith.
we went inside, yey!! :) i was looking for a perfect belt for my shorts while kat and mom were trying on some sunglasses.
our mom needs to go back to her store (ministop p.campa) so we had to end our window shopping as early as possible.

by the time i was able to pass by their new arrivals, i looked up and saw these pair of black wedge booties. i was longing for this style AND COLOR for months (i was able to buy a pair of wedge booties at forever21 but it's gray..see previous blog entry). i reached for it!! the price says 2,499php. i turned around to tell my mom "eto yun! pramis eto yun!! omg talaga! etong-eto yun!!!".
this is what i got from her "sige bilin mo na".
"yehey!".
"next time".
"ai" :( this was the last word that came out of my mouth.
then we went home. :(

the following day, october 7 [happy day], we [kat & i] had lunch with Agie (Puffy as i call her) in gateway mall.
since it's thursday, we went to St. Jude to hear mass. then went straight home. :)
that's all. :)

oh, and before leaving gateway, i got this:
 

even nicer in actual!

all photos in this entry was taken by me.

wasn't able to put a watermark in each picture (i forgot).

should you take them, please notify me,

or else, 20 years of bad luck will come your way.

my old wedge boots

here's another piece from our 25th collection to be released tonight! 8pm sharp! :)

love this piece,, i want it!! :D

my boots are not for sale by the way :D besides, nobody would want it, it's old (but still loved).


-M

everybody's sleepin' and i'm bloggin'?

okay, i wasn't able to post some of the clothes that will be released tomorrow (for our 25th collection).

we are now in subic bay travelers hotel, we just checked out from dreamland hotel this afternoon.
mom realized that the room rates are very cheap here.
really. for only 2,888 per day, you already get a 32" LCD tv, unlimited free internet access, free coffee, plus they got this office-like table at the corner of the room with a very comfy big computer chair.

i might be posting some pics of the hotel soon. that's all for now.

ps.
it's now 11:50pm, they're all sleeping already. what am i doing?

i say, long weekend vacay

ok, so i love long weekends. and last Saturday? kat and i didn't sleep 'coz we need to pack our things in less than 3 hours. i'll be waking up my mom at 5am (but she got up at 6). we're going to Baguio, yey!
i dunno why i love going there, i hate damp places FYI. i guess, it's because it's been years (not really) since the last time we went there.
we just got home last night.
here are some pictures:

i'm wearing a vest from H&M; oxfords/lace-ups from ichigo

from now on, i need to jot down everything i ate for the day. i'm still in a diet (huhu).
i was 128lbs last month, i took Slimina, now i'm 118lbs. my target weight is not more than 113lbs.

lately, i'm so loving tuna paella from san marino!

we tried luxe nail salon at robinson's galleria last week. it was ok. :)

9 shipments tomorrow! yey! kat is the one packing the items for shipping.
have i mentioned that we have an online shop? we do! it's AuxManila <---click! click! ^ ^
more about our shop soon! :)
