My dear blog friend and fashion blogger extraodinaire Kookie has teamed up with GCash for what I would like to dub as THE giveaway of the season. Presenting the Globe GCASH American Express Virtual Card! It serves as a virtual credit card tied to...

Me with a teeny tiny slate Today, I've crossed over to the dark side: I've officially entered my late 20s. As much as I hate to admit it, I can't go back anymore to the crazy, hazy, carefree days of my early youth. I think this is the time when I'm supposed to start to "reevaluate" my life and make "serious" plans about...
"Blue Tie", an MOS film by Jean Claire Dy BTS Photos by Mikey Huang "That Evening" an MOS film by Mic Zerda More often than not, there's just more to silence than what we can conceive. When we choose to say mum, we actually get to "say" more. May it be with our eyes or our actions, there's more than the spoken word...
When you've got a good life, it kind of makes more sense to just live your life, as opposed to poring over hours and hours telling the world about how "awesome" everything is. My boyfriend gives me that argument whenever I pick up my phone or camera to take pictures or check-in or document just about every nice thing we do together-- he thinks...

The things the men in our life can get away with, lol. That...

I have just come from the hugely successful Tears for Fears concert here in Cebu, which I've been looking forward to seeing for months. Needless to say, I have a huge space in my heart for this band. In light of the recent turn of events in Manila, the band has decided to donate all proceeds of their merchandise sales for relief efforts,...
Life lately has been a confusing hodgepodge of some, if not all of these things: juggling school and work life, a new baby in the family (not mine ha), my newfound love for functional and stylish flats, new tattoos, some renewed faith in the efficacy of retail therapy, and incessantly trolling my boyfriend over his childhood bowlcut. Lol. Follow me on Instagram (edeninthetropics)to...
Getting inked for the first time seems like a really, really daunting thing to think of, and rightfully so. Many times have I made sweeping declarations about getting a tattoo, but they all fell in vain. I felt like there were honestly too many things to consider, and I was all too happy to keep putting it off. Firstly, you need to decide...
