Details: Etoile Isabel Marant top from Gizelle | Langrand satchel | leather shorts bought from Worldbex Bazaar | ankle booties from Mango (bought from Kookie)

Hello lovers! I hope you've had a fun and carefree weekend! I'm still reeling from all the Oscar 2013 buzz from yesterday. I still haven't come to terms with some of the decisions (I'm looking at you, Best Makeup category!), but overall enjoyed Seth MacFarlane's cheeky, risky (he's still getting a lot of backlash from those "sensitive" jokes) and downright hilarious fratboy-meets-Broadway take on Oscars hosting. What were your favorite parts? Did you also feel that some nominees were "robbed"?

I wanted to share this quick and super backlogged outfit post taken back in December. On the way home from Manila after BU4, I was feeling more "bad hair day" and scruffier than the usual so I quickly put on this ensemble before checking out. Plaid seems to be a spring 2013 trend, so this Etoile Isabel Marant top was a welcome addition for my back-to-Cebu luggage. Me and Gizelle were wise enough to exchange unsold items after Bloggers United, and safe to say we both went home pretty happy.:)

I'll be posting much more this week so hope you stay tuned!:)

Much like a lot of other girls my age, I am quite addicted to online shopping. I've spent quite a bit of money on my favorite sites and products, much to my boyfriend's chagrin. However, I always make sure that I'm spending my money on the best deals--more often than not, things I've discovered through my own lengthy time on the interwebs, as well as sites talked about among my blogger friends.

Every now and then I'll try to bring you up-to-date reviews and features of some awesome online stores and shops you may or may not have heard of-- I have to use this addiction to a good use somewhat.

Here's some of the cool sites I've discovered lately:
