Boy, keeping up sure is hard to do sometimes-- at least where blog posting is concerned. Take this outfit post for example-- something I wore to the Make Your Own Havaianas 2013 in Cebu event, sometime early August (which explains my very late "that Zara skort") post hehe. I know I have a serious backlog problem. Stress! I very much promise I'm working on it :)
Yep... this happened last night! Boring, done before by everyone I know, but I deserve some props for still being able to pull a "halloween couple costume" thing out of my ass the last minute (so please don't hate-- I knew I couldve done better lol)! We were seriously both hoping to go as Cosmo and Wanda of the Fairly Oddparents but couldn't find the right color wigs or contacts and didn't have time to prepare for anything... thankful that my sister actually works in the hospital industry and was kind enough to let me borrow her stuff for last night's Eerie Ball event at The Chillage. Sick, sick night. Everyone got way too drunk for their own good... which is exactly how Halloween should be, right? This is the one night I'll let myself off the hook, haha.
Crappy photos via Instagram-- thank god for their web embed feature. Real time updates made super possible!
Follow me @edeninthetropics for some silly photo fun and personal photo stuff :D
GTG -- but before that, here's what we went as in 2010, many moons and many kilos ago. Enjoy!
(bought from The Chillage Store)
Hooray for employee discounts! I have seriously been jonesing on these tortoise shell sunglasses from AFrame Optics for awhile, and it was a relief to have bought them from our store. I've been meaning to acquire a pair of tortoise shell sunnies for awhile-- The style is too classic and ageless to be ignored. The fit of this one in particular was great, it's made of bamboo, and plus points for it lovingly made by a homegrown Cebuano company. I'm sold!
I really have to give it to AFrame for constantly propagating and spreading the wonders of sustainable items of style here in Cebu. I believe that everything has to have an eco-friendly angle, and fashion is not exempted. I appreciate the fact that bamboo eyewear is slowly becoming a thing-- bamboo is 100% sustainable, of course (it grows like theres no tomorrow!), plus its also a huge part of our culture.
These gorgeous beauties are also polarized for less eyestrain even in the blazing summer heat. Yahooo. Yep, these are totally my favorite at the moment.
"What's In My Bag" posts from other bloggers never fail to capture my interest. It's quite an intimate peek into a person's day-to-day life through their bag contents, don't you think? I've been thinking about making one for awhile, however I never really thought my bag or its contents were particularly interesting. However, I think it's a "rite of passage" for bloggers to create their own WIMB post, so here goes. Here's a look at my bag.
