Although I’ve been to Hong Kong several times, I can’t help but be excited about visiting each time. We’re planning on spending the new year there and I can’t wait! I can’t wait to shop, that is What’s on my shopping list?  Well, no bags for one (as I have just purchased one very recently! [...]

That Super Mario costume that my little boy wore to his school’s Halloween celebration last year was too cute for words.  It’s so cute that I am now finding it difficult to top.  Actually, I don’t think I can top it.  Nothing on the online stores has caught my eye yet and I’m afraid I [...]

Constructing outdoor fireplaces in the Philippines would be crazy considering our tropical weather, but I  think it would be cool to have one  – only for aesthetic purposes though   If I had a backyard, I would probably consider installing a barbecue/fireplace unit so I could get more use out of it.  I could make [...]

I was [...]

I don’t even have a F/W 2010 bag yet, and this comes out?!: Balenciaga S/S 2011 Color Chart (photo via Tpf) So what do I think? Nuage looks like a very pretty periwinkle shade.  I prefer it in an rh city or rh day. Ardoise seems like an interesting shade of gray.  I am curious [...]

I haven’t heard the word bullion in more than 5 years! I might be in the wrong circle of friends but is this still a word used in common conversation?!?  I know that it’s always mentioned in conjunction with precious metals, but in my honest opinion even precious metals have not been regular topics for [...]
