My Melissa Red Shoes…

I really don’t have plans of getting a new pair of shoes but I was just in Greenbelt 5 last week when I passed by the newly-moved store of Mix. From the window displays, my heart jumped after seeing the red shoes. I could have gotten a high rate from a pulse oximeter if my pulse rate was checked right at that very moment. Was thinking of getting initially the red flats with gold accent but I think the velvet one is a better choice.

Isn’t it sexy?

Capturing Memories…

Last night, I was cleaning files from my laptop when I came across the previous videos of the kids when they were still small. There were videos when Margaux was starting to talk and we cannot understand a single word. Another video was when Bianca was starting to walk and we would practice her walking along the corridor. Of course, I watched over again my birthing videos of the kids. It is really nice to capture these memories as it always bring happy thoughts. Now, I realized that we should consider getting a good camcorder that could capture these fun memories as a family. Would like to get something reliable and is known for quality. I am starting to read reviews online and also check the deals available like those from Buy.com. Any other recommendations?

In Sephora…

Yes, I went shopping ga-ga in Sephora store when we were in US. Bought a number of stuff there including a moisturizer with anti-wrinkle formula. I got the one which garnered the best wrinkle cream review. Of course, I got something from my favorite make-up brand too, BareMinerals! The package was valued at $82 because it has a Well-Rested eye brightener, High Shine Charisma eyecolor, Popular eye color, Glee Radiance All-over-Face color and a double ended lip color in Sticky Buns and a lip gloss in Muffin Top. But I got it for $36 only a special promotional box. It was a whole set that can make me flawlessly made-up for a regular meeting or even a party.

Have you seen the available dresses already? Some are actually out in the stores last weekend. Being a fan of this label, I always make it a point to check out their latest collection. And yes, I purchased the red dress below!

So happy that I am now one size smaller! I almost can’t believe it! Oh well, they might just have made their collection bigger this time! (bitter! lol!) I’m happy as atleast I don’t think I need to get some quick fat burners at this time. But I am still open for it since I admit, there are still some unwanted and stubborn belly fats which I want to get rid off.  Let’s see if just my diet will work.

Another TB…

I was looking for apidexin, a fat burner that uses diet and weight loss ingredients when I saw this new Jelly Reva Flats in Tortoise Print in Tory Burch store inside Caesar’s Palace that just arrived from the store a day before. Well that was what the SA told me. Yay, can’t resist! It’s my 3rd Reva already so I think I am done already. Got black and silver before hand so this brown one is the perfect color to finish this addiction, lol!

This weekend…

will be the arrival of our “new baby.” Before I even post the nice stuff I got from the recent US trip, let me complete first all the documents that I need to sign to finalize the details of its arrival, otherwise, the husband would not be happy when he gets back tonight and all documents are not yet fixed. Good thing, I already checked as well about wholesaleinsurance.net so we are now good to sign the policies. Husband is so excited for it. I can tell. He’s happier for it rather than the “gift” he got me on my birthday! lol!

Memorial Day Sale…

We caught up with the last day of memorial day sale today and I am happy that I was able to score an acne scar removal for my cousin. It’s a good deal since it was also on 50% off. It is really perfect to shop during sale periods as you get the best deal in the market. Aside from the outlet price they are giving out, there are extra 20-30% off still from the lowest ticketed price. And yes, I really got some nice items from shopping in Cabazon outlet.

Outlet Shopping…

After finalizing my request through email for the insurance quotes since I wasn’t able to finish it before I left in Manila, we already went to shop in Lake Elsinore Outlet. That happened a day after we arrived in Temecula. The husband was the one who was able to bag good deals especially from Bass. It’s buy 1 take 2 on all shoes! How could you beat that? Then he was able to get some nice jeans from Gap as well. He normally have a hard time buying jeans from Manila so the outlet shopping was also 7th heaven for him.

Memorial Day Sale…

So excited for the coming weekend as we are off to Cabazon outlet for the Memorial Day Sale. Aside from checking out some best acne treatment for a friend who asked me to get one for her, I am going to look for some make-ups for me, clothes and shoes for the kids and few stuff for the house. I am preparing my list already. I am hoping to grab great deals!

It’s been a week…

since we arrived in the West Coast. We landed safely in Lax and we have been on road trips since then. We had two days rest while in Temecula but didn’t take any chances to miss a shopping mall and an outlet. We went to a nearby mall, Promenade Mall on our 1st day and to an outlet mall in Lake Elsinore on our 2nd day. What do you expect? We bought few items for the kids specifically jackets from GAP which they can use. Major fail as I purposely didn’t bring their winter jackets as I thought it would not be too cold when we arrive. I am amazed as most of the stores here do use the ls4278 cordless scanner. We really haven’t bought any major stuff yet though as we are also awaiting the Memorial Day Sale on the last weekend of May. Yey!  I am making my list already.  And oh, I need a day in Walmart and Costco!

The Candy Stores…

This is the kids inside the candy store in Promenade Mall…

They love choosing their own preferred flavors for their jelly beans.

And this is me, on my “candy store.” Sorry for the dark shot of the store signage. No, haven’t bought any yet but will definitely come back as my Mineral Make-ups are due for replenishments.  I love, love Sephora!

1st Activity!

for the trip… Shopping! Yey! Yes it’s the first order of the day upon arrival in Temecula. I look forward to it as I would like to get the kids new clothes and shows. Also, I am hoping we could check out crate and barrel as well as I would like to get new stuff for the kitchen. We would definitely be going home with a box instead as I already ordered online some outdoor cushions for our lawn! Aside from get-together with families, I admit shopping is also I am looking forward to!

9 May

Shopping List…

I am almost complete with my shopping list. I just need to check on the telephone numbers of most of the stores so I can confirm the availability of what I would buy. Few of my friends were also asking me to get some items like some shoes, bags, gadgets and even a testosterone boosters that work lol! It is for my friend who is a fitness buff. I am making a separate list for that. I hope we won’t go over baggage when we tried packing everything in a box on our way back to Manila. Just counting the days!

7-in-1 dress!

After buying medicines like an aveeno cream for the atopic dermatitis (not to close to eczema) of my daughter, I went around the Powerplant Mall last saturday to check out a dress.  I bought this 7-in-1 dress in black from Mimi shop in Powerplant Mall.

7-in-1 dressb

Love it as i can make this dress into 7 different styles which even has an instruction kit on how to do it. It has a very unique feature, a long fabric in front which can be twisted as a sleeve, a sash or a belt. It’s like saving a lot as well since you only pay for the price of 1 dress but can already have like 7 kinds. People won’t notice that you are actually wearing the same dress since you can alter the design. I would be bringing this one on our trip since we are expected to attend a formal gathering for my sister-in-law’s graduation.
