bling it on!

I do not know of any woman who has been given jewelries as gifts and did not like the gesture and the gifts. Even my friend who is not so much into diamond rings for her engagement ring was given one by her fiance and fell in love with her bling as well. I guess the part in the movie, Sex and the City where SJP was given a designer shoe as her proposal gift will not work for me. I would still love jewelries since they are more timeless other than any kind of gifts. So, if you are still on the lookout on what to give your partner, wife, sister, mother or you are just generous to give something to your female friend, check out Joolwe.com Online Jewelry Shop for their wide selection of jewelries which you could order online. What is nice about this online jewelry store is the fact that their collection include unique items and those jewelries with colored precious stones which you could not see in other jewelry stores as they only sell the usual, diamonds, white and yellow gold, titanium etc... Currently, the shop offers Logo 25~40% Off discounts as their Christmas/Pre-launch Jewelry sale. Joolwe.com launched recently offering great deal and huge discount to jewelry shoppers looking for great gifts and bargains. You might want to check out this deal and surf on the site for the designs I have been talking about. Moreso, why don't you tell your wives, partners, girlfriends, mothers, sisters and friends about this wonderful online jewelry shop.

the perfect boots

God knows how long I have been looking for a perfect black leather comfortable sexy boots. I have one but they've got heels and I am so so not into boots with heels lately. I swear this is the only thing I want during the Black Friday sale but I failed looking for one. I am so close at getting a slouchy suede version in Charlotte Russe and an Aldo which hubby has been bugging me to get but they did not fit my taste until this NineWest Serina boots came right infront of me. Sadly, I've used up my budget for the black boots boohoo and this one costs $189!!! I can't afford that now. I guess I have to wait till the Christmas sale or after-Christmas sale because this is quite new in style. I just hope they do not run out of stocks.

clean air

Our townhome community manager just sent out a letter asking everyone for our free date so they could clean the heater filter to ensure that we are inhaling clean air. This is what I love about renting a place and not owning one because I do not have to bother myself with the nitty-gritty details of home maintenance such as buying a true hepa air purifier. If you need a site that gives out guidelines to buying an air purifier visit: http://www.aircleanersguide.com/.

How was our Black Friday?

Our Black Friday started up quite early. We hit the mall at exactly 5am. While we were surprised with the not so long lines and not-so huge discounts, we still proceeded to the prime outlet and check other promo there. I am happy to say that we shopped only what we need and for the amount we paid, they were such good steal. After dinner, hubby wanted to take another round at BestBuy and find a good Norton Anti-Virus with ID theft protection, phishing, spyware etc. deal. True enough he got one for only $30, the premiere edition all in one, (from the original price of $100!). While I had another round at TJ maxx. I did not get anything for myself this time but instead we shopped for more clothes and a couple of Tonka toys for the little one. All in all, we spent much much lesser than what we spent last year. We were shopping on a very tight budget this year because we wanted to focus and save on something big next year.

Anyhow, at the end of my Black Friday sale, I was astounded and quite furios with madness when I read about This Black Friday Tragedy in Walmart, NY. This things could never happen if the shopper were more educated and controlling of themselves. My prayer goes out to the Walmart worker and his family. I hope none of these things will happen in the future Black Friday sales.

optics planet

Hubby is a very choosy shopper, he is my exact opposite. He is not the type who would buy because he wants a lot of stuff, he buys because of quality and sometimes because of brand. That is why if you check on our walk-in closet you would see that he only has a few stuff and I occupy most of the space. But most of his stuff are designer brands. Anyhow, last month my sunglasses was accidentally broken by our energetic toddler, he sat on it. He was telling me to get a new one from one of his favorite sunglasses brands. While he offers to pay for it, I wanted a discount sunglasses and spend the rest of his money on other things. I honestly do not see the need of buying a very expensive sunglasses especially since I do not drive and won't be using as often as I could. Speaking of quality discount sunglasses, I chanced upon OpticsPlanet.net when I was shopping online for the Black friday sale. OpticsPlanet is the leading online supplier of eyewear & sport optics.

tanned in minutes

I am a naturally fair-skinned person and while most people in my circle compliment my skin color, they do not know I secretly wish to be on the dark side. I find dark or tanned women prettier. Anyhow, if you are looking for a Tanning Bed or Commercial Tanning Beds, visit etstan.com.

online and in-store?

Just a quick post before we leave and celebrate the rest of the thanksgiving day at my in-laws.

The online shops thanksgiving sale promos and campaign ads emails have been pouring in my inbox and to be honest, there are not quite big discounts and most of them just give out free shipping which is quite normal. Anywhow, I think Black Friday sales are still best in store. Other than the huge door buster discounts, they give out freebies if you come in really early :).

So you asked me this time, online of in store? I prefer in store just for this special sales event.

easy on the Black Friday Sale.

Here's wishing everyone who constantly drops by this blog a Blessed Thanksgiving and a safe Black Friday sale. Take it easy on the sale, alright? Remember, we are still on a global financial crisis. And while you have funds for this once in a lifetime event, think thrice before grabbing that cheap find. Do you need it? Or do you just want to buy it because it's cheap. Think. Shop. Enjoy!

The warrior of light concentrates on the small miracles of daily life.

"Thankful"
by Josh Groban

Somedays we forget
To look around us
Somedays we can't see
The joy that surrounds us
So caught up inside ourselves
We take when we should give.

So for tonight we pray for
What we know can be.
And on this day we hope for
What we still can't see.
It's up to us to be the change
And even though we all can still do more
There's so much to be thankful for.

Look beyond ourselves
There's so much sorrow
It's way too late to say
I'll cry tomorrow
Each of us must find our truth
It's so long overdue

So for tonight we pray for
What we know can be
And every day we hope for
What we still can't see
It's up to us to be the change
And even though we all can still do more
There's so much to be thankful for.

Even with our differences
There is a place we're all connected
Each of us can find each other's light

So for tonight we pray for
What we know can be
And on this day we hope for
What we still can't see
It's up to us to be the change
And even though this world needs so much more

There's so much to be thankful for

creative wedding photography

When we got married, the photography services took a bigger chunk in our wedding budget. It was a non-negotiable deal to both hubby and I that we get a Creative Wedding Photography services to capture that big day in our lives irregardless of the cost. We were set to invest on our photographer rather than other wedding suppliers because the photos will be the only reminder of our happy wedding. Lately, I have noticed how wedding photography evolved these days. In fact, I chanced upon greglappinphotography.com and you should take a look at his gallery and be surprised by how creative and unique his shots are. I would definitely consider getting them if I was to be wed in this time. Check out the site for more information.

purple hotness!

The original bag that I was supposed to blog about isn't here, I could not find it! I thought I was able to bookmarked it but no, tsk tsk. Sayang, it was one of those unique purple bags. Anyhow, let's proceed with these other pretty purple bags :).

great expectations

I used to not really believe in relationships that have started from online dating sites until a dear friend of mine met her mr. right while chatting in a dating site. They are now happily married :).

My mom said that there seems to be a lot of singles in the 30ish these days as compared to her circle of friends back in her younger years. Most of them were already married before they even reached 30!

Anyhow, internet dating has been seen as one of the best place to meet singles. Such as Great Expectations. They are a safe online dating site as they do background checks before you could even put on your profile. Check out this video which features a couple who met from Great Expectations.

All Things Beautiful (the juicy couture edition)

Again, from NeimanMarcus.com. All these Juicy Couture blings and a purse are below $100.00. I am sure my J.C.-addict cousin, Yna would love to have this for her 16th birthday and Christmas but, Yna you have to wait till Ate finishes Graduate School :). Aren't these adorable?





And of course this Marc Jacobs bracelet caught my eye:

weakness

One of my weaknesses include ultra smooth, nicely-shaped hands and very perfectly polished nails. Just because, I do not have one :(. Sadly, my hands are made for working and they are quite short and veiny, though smooth. My mom started me out early on manicure so my cuticles are quite thick! Every time I see pairs of beautiful hands with perfectly polished nails, I could not help but ask the person if she is working or she has all the maids in the world to do her housechores. But, you would be surprised that there are some who works hard with their hands yet maintain that very beautiful pair, I guess it's in their genes. Anyhow, I am not really the kind of girl who wants nail polished every day. I have a house to tend to and a very energetic toddler to run after to once in a while. But, I make sure my toe nails are polished with bold colors, most of the time. Like the ones I saw at OPI nail polish website. They have a huge selection of nail polish that would make those nails of yours harder and more gorgeous. Check out the site for more.

How to Wear High Heels

I had a meeting today with two executives which required me to dress up (well not really but I want to look my best!) and for such a long time, almost two years I guess, I wore high heels again. I never felt this good, I love high heels as they straighten my back, no slouching, just a perfect posture. I was not able to take photos of What I Wore because I totally forgot about it. When I came back home, I immediately changed on my thermal leggings and lousy sando and was holding my pans and plates again, off to cook lunch hee :) I wore a black slacks, a mustard top and my cream leather jacket, with my hair pulled back.

Anyhow, I thought of sharing this wonderful entry from wikihow.com on how to wear heels!
1.Don't wear high heels if they are too high. The best size shoes are medium height.
2. Wear some thin socks underneath. This will help prevent your feet from rubbing against the leather or on the material of the shoes.

3. Buy shoes with soft inner soles.

4.Avoid the high heels when cycling - poor control and pain are the consequences. Wear high heels only when you don't have to walk a lot or perform energetic activities. Don't even consider cycling to and from work in them - that is asking for trouble even though you may have seem some foolhardy enough to try.

5. Wear high heels for special occasions. Times that are more suitable for high heels include activities such as birthday parties, visiting night clubs (although this depends on how much dancing you do and how comfortable you are in high heels), graduation parties, church etc.

a breeze.

One of the many things we consider when we checked this town home is the fact that it has ceiling fans on the dining area as well as both bedrooms. Ceiling fans can be very economical on hot Spring days and when Summer is just starting to set in. Why would you turn on the centralized air conditioner when it is not yet too hot for one. However, these ceiling fans could double as accessory furniture in your home. Some would find it decorative to put one and in replacement of an ordinary light bulb. I chanced upon ceilingfanwarehouse.com and they have all sorts of ceiling fans that would suit your style depending on the theme of your home. Also, you can choose ceiling fans that have light bulbs. Some of their collections include: Decorative Style Ceiling Fans, Hugger Style Ceiling Fan and Contemporary Style Ceiling Fans. The site also offers free shipping and accepts paypal or you have choice to checkout with google so your credit card information is safe. I think hubby's Aunt who is undergoing home renovations would more likely order from this site because of the free shipping promo and the fact that some of their fans come out cheaper than the ones we see on store. Go check them yourselves.

the kind of blogger.

1. In your own blog, are you more likely to discuss personal relationships, religion or politics?
>>>Personal relationships on my immediate family and my extended family and friends I use initials. I am not that gutsy to talk about religion and politics in the wordlwideweb hee.

2. If you needed a “tagline” or sub-title for your blog, what would you use to describe your blog?
>>>For this blog: Everything I want but rather save on travel and education.

3. You notice that a close “blog buddy” of yours has suddenly removed the link to your blog from his or her website. Do you contact that person to ask why you’re no longer linked, or ignore it?
>>>Ahm, I am not that addicted to my backlinks lol! I don't really mind and guess what I have not been checking on my backlinks as well.

4. Take the quiz: What Kind of Blogger Are You?
>>>Your blog is the story of your life - a living diary.
If it happens, you blog it. And you make it as entertaining as possible.You may be guilty of over-sharing a bit on your blog, but you can't help it. Your life is truly an open book. Or in this case, an open blog!

5. If there was no such thing as feed readers, the sites or that allow you keep up with multiple blogs at once, and the only way for you to actually keep up with your blogging friends was to actually go to their own individual blog every time, how many blogs do you think you would seriously read regularly?
>>>Honestly. Only about 20 :)

6. If you learned that each of the following people had been secretly reading your blog for a while now, which one would make you want to look back through your content to see if any apologies might be necessary: your parents, your children, your best friend, your pastor, your boss, or your worst enemy?
>>>This is the reason I do not write hate entries, well there are days I could not help but rant but I use initials or general rants. If they were soooo guilty about it, they would assume LOL!

Off to check on office supplies. Later!

vending machines

My son loves getting his snacks from Vending Machines. He loves the fact that he could insert the coins and get them from the bag all by himself. I know that my son is not really after the snacks or drinks but the process of putting coins and waiting for the product to drop in the bag. I used to be really amazed with these Snack Vending Machines that came to a point where I would rather buy my snacks from these vending machines rather than real stores. Anyhow, a friend is thinking of investing her small savings on Vending Machines for Sale she saw at 1800vending.com. I think it is one of those business where you do not really need to devote so much time. All you need to do is find a perfect marketable and potential area where you could put the machine and check it once in a while if it needs refilling. Unlike other businesses which require manpower and constant monitoring. The vending machine business is quite a good choice for an alternative business especially for the employed people who still want to maintain their 8-5 jobs and earn extra. Check out 1800vendingmachine.com for more information.

The Mahina Gift.

I got this in my mailbox today. Oh how I really wish Santa would give me this beauty, this Christmas. I have been nice and uberly hardworking and is deserving to have a spot in her good girls list hee.

Anyhow, ever since Mahina came out, I have fallen in love with its shape and how it can double as your mini-duffel/travelling bag. But for a bag, this can be too pricey for me. At least in the next 20 years hehe.

from hi to lo (a thanksgiving entry)

Just a couple of hours ago, I was so elated because 3 of the 4 bags I am waiting for shipment came to my doorstep and I was blushing with excitement while trying them out. It was the perfect 'ME' time for me because the boys were out. Anyhow, after 2 hours of looking at them and enjoying their beauty, something came up and it was kinda emergency and not-so-good news. All of a sudden my joy was covered with worry. This made me realized (i quote my friend, J) that God does not give us too much blessings to be comfortable with our lives, but to teach us something and that we have to learn.

Have a good thanksgiving week y'all!

surveillance camera

Mommies can get too paranoid at times but who can blame us, especially those who has had bad experiences with previous nannies. I remembered a friend who almost got a Surveillance camera just to monitor the details of her newly-hired nanny. If you need Security Camera, CCTV, and other Home surveillance apparatus, click on the link above.

Coach Monday

Okay, it's Monday and I still can't get over how beautiful the new arrival stuff are over at Coach.com. Look at this sneakers. While I am not a huge fan of rubber shoes and sneakers especially if they are monogrammed, this is a good find at only $88.00 :). Could be a wonderful Christmas present as well. Happy Monday!

IDD

I just got a call from my mom this evening and she was so excited to speak with her grandson after such a long time. We got accustom to chatting at YM that we forgot we can call each other more often on phones. I have recently discovered this site whose company is named 3longdistance. They have cheaper international direct dialing rates and would you believe that they even accept PAYPAL. Anyhow, if you decide to call someone from the Asia such as calling Vietnam or if you decide to call Australia, check out their site and check on this calling card Eritrea first before you decide to call them. I understand how easy it is to communicate with SMS or IM but it is much better to call and hear someone's voice.

Coach Blings

While I am still recovering from the hurtful eyes I had after looking at this ultimately beauty for a few hours...
I can't help but be fascinated by the colors of these blings! Admit it, they are such eye candies yum!!! This got to be the best season of Coach. Check out their new monogram seal, the most elegant ever :)



his bestfriend

Hubby's closest friend in Chicago has been calling him lately. He has been courting this girl for the longest time and I think he has already gotten more than 10 dozens of flowers from different Chicago Florists just to get the answer from this girl. Apparently, hubby has been giving him tips on courting. I really hope they'd be together really soon :). Speaking of flowers, ordering flowers these days can be very convenient like this Teleflora's website where you could order online. All you need to do is enter your zip code and see if there are any available florists near your neighborhood. I guess we have to suggest this to hubby's friend as he has been ordering flowers on the usual, conservative way. This would save him time and would even surprise the girl. I really really hope he gets his most awaited “YES!”. He is so madly in love with the girl.

Coach Holiday

I am not being productive again :(. What can I do, I have been stuck with Coach's website that my eyes hurt with these beauties. Goodness, I want them all. Don't you?

The newest arrival from Coach. Salivate with me, hay!





black friday thoughts

You would not believe this but I think I am changing my mind about lining up from 12 midnight till morning for the Black Friday Sale. After all I am only after these 2 Coach Bags. I made some research and guess what, the least that Macy's, Dillard's and other Coach Bags retailers can give is a maximum of 25% off. If you go to the outlets, you would likely get higher discounts but you would end up seeing old designs and the 2 bags I am eyeing are quite new styles.... I have still 5 days to think about it. Might as well drop by when there aren't a lot of people and will just grab some clothes for the little boy, instead.

And Sadly, Sardonicnell's Coach big discount coupon has not arrived yet and it was supposed to expire today...

infomercial.

Hubby's Aunt has a couple of branches which needs some very specialized machines such as press hardening, deep draw tooling and hydraulic press. While I do not have any interest on them or know what they all are until Hubby showed them too, you might want to know this company called AP&T that builds these very specialized machines that make things out of metal. The products/machines they make are in the liking of auto parts industry, cylinders, etc. They also have some neat ways of doing things that nobody else does, one way is called HOT stamping, it's a way of forming metal. Check out the site if you need more information.

Saturday's about to end, how it is so far?

uh-oh...

Hubby accidentally saw this checkout screen when he was surfing the wine of the month club a few minutes ago. Like I said I have been surfing on Charlotte Russe for a couple of hours already when hubby interrupted me as he wants to check on some other things. He was too lazy to turn on his PC. Anyhow, look what's in my shopping cart. Charlotte Russe is currently running 3 promos on shoes: Free shipping if you buy 3 items, buy one get one $10 off and 50% discount. That is why I have 3 items in my shopping cart to avail of free shipping and one of which is $10 off. Are these enough reasons to buy these shoes? When I only need a black boots?

if only...

If only have a huge online shopping budget, I would only shop at NeimanMarcus.com!!! Gosh all their stuff are just perfect but not my line of financial expenditures even when they are on sale, sadly but true LOL! Anyhow, they are currently offering the following promos:
  1. Evening Accessories + Free Bangle with purchase + FREE ONLINE SHIPPING with your $200 order and code NMNOV.
  2. and 40% off on Designer brands.
Worthy to check this site :).

Now, I am off to check on some carports.

plaid messenger bag

I should be looking for an affordable laundry hamper instead of checking out my favorite online shops. Sometimes I think this blog keeps opening my eyes on things I do not really need. I keep finding cheap nice things and I am wanting more and more stuff I do not really need. Anyhow, these messenger bags from Charlotte Russe are nice finds for only 19.99 :). How come I see more stocks online than in stores, hmmm.
