Twiggy.

Not very many know, but I am TWIGGY crazy. Twiggy was a model in the 60's known for her androgynous looks and wide eyes. She's also my pixie cut inspiration. 

Not, I've always found it really hard to get an iPhone case with her on it (cause its always either Marilyn or Audrey) but with instacasePH anything goes!! They recently just opened here in CDO and I couldn't be happier! My iPhone is one of my greatest accessories and I never let it go. So what's better than being able to dress it up in a case that's completely MINE? All I did was find my design online, and they print it in seconds!

Coffee Shop Regular.

Okay, its no secret. I practically live in coffee shops. I love love love (yes, 3x the love) coffee and tea. I do most of my work there whether its for school of for my blog, I set most meetings there, I eat lunch there, I hang out with my friends there and I spend alone time there. I love the vibe and the sound of people chatting. I like the way the baristas know my drink and just how I like it (non-fat, no whip). I love how coffee shops smell, you know, that inviting smell of coffee that makes you think warm and comforting thoughts. I know that coffee is readily available at home, but nothing beats the "Coffee Shop Feel"

If you must know, No, I did not have a photo shoot at Starbucks. I have a sister who likes taking photos. HAHA.

My favorite "cheat day" drink. Green tea cream frappucino with 3 pumps of hazelnut syrup. YUM.

Wow. Why so serious?

Belgian waffle with whipped cream,drizzled with strawberry syrup.

Rustan's Fresh Walkathon.

Step up to a healthier living on the 18th of May and join the walkathon towards the first Rustan’s Supermarket in Mindanao at the Centrio Mall, Cagayan de Oro City.  The event is to celebrate the opening of the country’s premium supermarket most trusted in freshness, quality and customer service. The first activity of its kind in the city, this exciting fun walk for the whole family will begin and end at the Centrio Mall, CM Recto Avenue. Assembly time is at 5am with the five kilometer (5k) walk starting at 5:30 am and the three kilometer (3k) distance at 5:45 am.

My current fitness routine involves a whole lot of running. In fact, I try to run at least 3-5 kilometers a day. There's a lot that can motivate you on a run, the best one is running for a cause. All the proceeds of the Rustans Walkathon goes to Xavier EcoVille project, a Xavier University-led resettlement initiative for Sendong survivors.

Registration is ongoing at the La Cabana Spa and the designated booth at the Centrio Mall CM Recto lobby with limited slots available. Fees for the 3K and 5K distances are at P200 and P300 respectively inclusive of snacks, an exclusive Rustan’s Supermarket loot bag, race bib, jersey and other giveaways.  The supermarket will also be open earlier at 7:30 a.m. for the added convenience and pleasurable shopping experience of participants and spectators.  

I was telling my dad about the opening and the walkathon and he mentioned that we've been Rustan's customers since I was a baby! (Thats a LOOOOONG time. haha) Rustan's officially  opens it's doors to the public on May 17 ,2013 and will be open daily with regular store hours from 9:00 am to 9:00 pm.

Sanctuary One: Anniversary Fashion Show.

Last Sunday, I received an invitation to Sanctuary One. The 1^st year anniversary celebration of CDO’s very own Sanctuary Spa and Salon. They celebrated by putting together a fashion show featuring the designs of one of Cebu’s best; Lemuel Rosos. Modeled by models from Cebu and CDO. 

They opened the show with an amazing display of POY dancing.

Lemuel’s Resort wear collection was very reminiscent of a sort of 70’s summer. It was nothing short of bright and fun!

Now, on to casual wear. Totally on the opposite end from his resort wear. It’s very neutral and exudes a calm and relaxing vibe. 

My favorite part of every fashion show, Formal Wear. I guess it has a lot to do with my inner princess fantasy HAHA. These dresses were all so elegant and beautiful

My favorite piece in the entire show!

Isn’t she beautiful? Diana Meneses, Brazilian Model.and one of Sanctuary's new endorsers.

The owner of Sanctuary (In pink) Along with all their new endorsers.

My brother = my default date to events.

This is Maria Gigante, she’s one of my best friends. We were classmates for 2 semesters back in Cebu. I was really happy to see her in CDO. 

Now, staying true to my Fashion Blogger duties. I made sure to get an outfit shot. Here's what I wore to the show.

I decided against going in  color and wore black and just injected the color via my clutch and shoes.
