“When you think of makeup, the brand that pops into your mind — for something legit — is MAC. Whatever color you want, it’s like ‘Let’s go to MAC.’ I’ve been using MAC on tour for such a long time it was a natural fit for me. I have always loved makeup, and I always said that if I do it, I want to do it with a credible brand.” -Rihanna

I haven’t tried the Archie’s Girls make up yet, and Riri’s collection is coming out real soon. Where in the world was I? I kid! ;) I heard Rihanna handled everything from scratch (dedicated girl!), and the Riri Woo lipstick is something that you should watch out for. If the name sounds familiar it is because it was inspired by the famous Ruby Woo lipstick by Mac.

Excited to try Riri’s collection? Me too! :)

Yey! It’s Sunday once again. Honestly, I’m not rather sure if I’m happy or scared right now. I’m aging and I’m feeling all Bella right now. Oh Edward, please bite me before midnight so I can stay at this age forever. It’s daunting when I think that I’m almost in the mid-20s. Okay, I’ll stop the aging rant and just show you what I wore a couple of weeks ago. I know; another backlog post. I promise to fill you in as often as I can: when time permits and when a topic crops up. I don’t want to bombard you with my personal problems, improbability, and whatnots. Or maybe you like that too? LOL!  

Here’s another nautical look from me. I wore jeans and long sleeved shirt as during that time we were still feeling the cool breeze. Now, I’m not really sure. I’m stuck in our wintry office every single day so I’m somewhat dense about the weather outside.

Sunday is Aquino family’s bonding day—a must to visit Lola’s house to catch up with the family after the mass. This was an outfit shot from two (or three) weeks ago. I know, I know. Backlog! Have you noticed that I was wearing long sleeves? It’s because we had a blustery Sunday afternoon. Now, we’re back to the scorching days. Not actually baking yet, but you’ll definitely sweat. (Does that sound gross? I hope not!) Oh I wish the cold weather didn’t end right away. I miss my cold morning travel to work.

I still have my favorite black and white skulls in this post. Want to know where did the skulls go? Quick story: I sold the skull bracelet when a lady saw me wearing them on my way home. She asked where I got them, and I told her I’m selling accessories online. She said she’ll get the one I was wearing. Fast transaction, right then and there! I was surprised that it only took about 2 minutes—lightning fast transaction.

Speaking of accessories, Quintessential Shop Manila just released a new collection. If you are into earcuffs, then you’ll love them. I was searching for earcuffs for the longest time now, so I was glad to find some of them. Here’s a sneak peek of the earcuffs available.
