Christmas 2011 Wish Number 1

Tweet

I go for the simple things in life. Anything too extravagant -not my taste. This is especially true with the clothes that I have. Anything that can catch too much attention I definitely won’t buy.

That dress is on my Christmas wish list. Fashionable but simple. And I’m sure that design will hide the flaws around my tummy area. Although it's a bit big, I also love the clutch bag. Perfect combination.

shopping has never been this easy

My cousins' wedding is in a few days. I bought two new dresses, during SM Megamall's 3-day sale, a few weeks back. I can't decide which one to wear for my cousin's wedding, so I put both dresses in my suitcase. When I arrived in Bicol, I can't help but give the dresses to my Mom and Aunt B.

Now I have nothing to wear for my cousin's wedding. I don't want to embarrass him by showing up in church wearing a plain white shirt and faded jeans. A social networking site and a friend who's addicted to online shopping helped me with my problem.

I have a lot of things on my to-do list today. I was set on finishing it before the end of the day but I got stuck browsing my friend's summer vacation pictures. I finally realized that I was unproductive for two hours already when my Mom said that lunch was ready.

I was about to say words-not-fit-for-this-blog to myself but a car for sale by owner posting on my friend's account grabbed my attention. The car was listed in an online classifieds website. I got curious, the price was so affordable for a very fancy car, so I followed the link. It happened to be a listing on second-hand vehicles. There's a page for frequently asked questions so the site is very easy to navigate. If you're out of the country, an article on "how to sell a car by owner who doesn't live in the Philippines" is available for you to read.

I also found a dress that I can wear for my cousin's wedding. With just one click of the mouse, my "dress problem" was solved. I never thought shopping online is so easy. Have you shopped online? If you haven't yet, you should try it.

the little black dress

I was an avid follower of the television show Tim Gunn's Guide To Style. He has this list of ten must-have in every woman's wardrobe. The Ten Wardrobe Elements are mostly classic pieces that fits you properly, are not outdated, and bring out your best features. First on the list is the basic black dress.

Basic Black Dress - The basic black dress has been around for a long time. It is often called the "Little Black Dress", and it's true that shorter skirts on the basic black dress, when they hit you in the right place, can be more flattering than a long black dress. ~suite101.com

I haven't found the perfect black dress for me, yet. But one of these days, I'll find "the one". You should look for yours too.

graduation dress and suit

Graduating students, especially the girls, are more excited with what they'll be wearing during the graduation ceremony than preparing for their finals this time of the year. A few more weeks of looking for the right dress, a few more lunges and crunches to fit the right dress, and they're all set to wow the crowd.

Because of our humid weather, experts advice on simple cuts for the graduation ceremony. One has the option to have another dress, this time imaginations can run wild, for the post graduation party.

Are you graduating this semester? Your child maybe? Have you found the dress yet?
