Raviv’s Wardrobe Diary #4: Little Valentino (Feb. 14, 2013)

March 19, 2013 By 2 Comments

After more than a month, maipo-post ko na ang outfitey ni Raviv on V-Day.

I know it’s baduy to wear red on V-Day–but this fashion rule applies only to grown-ups, or even pa-grown-ups (tweens and above).  But not for toddlers.  I think it’s cute for toddlers to wear red on V-Day.  So Raviv wore red on Valetine’s Day.  Here he is:

  • Red polo shirt given by Lola Emma from SM Department Store
  • Denim pants from Stanley
  • Brown booties given by Yaya Isay

Recent realization:  Ang galing pala ng porma ni Raviv ‘coz on the day of love, most of what he was wearing were gifts from the people who love him :)

Wardrobe Diary #38: Jumpsuit on Valentine’s Day (Feb. 14, 2013)

March 4, 2013 By Leave a Comment

One of the things (among sooo many) about Randy that make me feel blessed to be his wife is his take on Valentine’s Day.  While many women have to drag their men on dates during V-Day, it is I whom Randy drags.  For him, a date with his wife is a must on V-Day. ;)

Because the UPCAT Results were released late this year, February was a very busy time for us.  We were rushing our tarps, brochure inserts and website with our almost 1,000 UPCAT passers.  We were so busy that I practically forgot to make dinner reservations in hotels in Alabang!  I had to do it because Randy let me choose where to go.  Sobrang sayang, because on Valentine’s Day Sitti serenaded dinner guests of Bellevue while Kuh Ledesma with Jose Mari Chan and Kris Lawrence serenaded dinner guests of Crimson Hotel.  When I called both hotels on February 13, both were fully booked. :(

So we just decided to have a Valentine’s lunch at Marriott Hotel at Resorts World, and go to the UP Feb Fair with the whole household in the evening.

And this is what I wore to our date:

I’ve wanted to wear this jumpsuit from Artista Boutique for a loooooong time.  I love jumpsuits–they’re sassy and sexy, and chic and classy.  And this was the moment!  Here’s a closer look at the rest of my outfit ensemble: [Read more...]

Wardrobe Diary #36 and Raviv’s Wardrobe Diary 2: The Enchanting Momma & the Enchanting Boy (Jan. 27, 2013)

February 17, 2013 By Leave a Comment

My boy was actually sick when we visited Enchanted Kingdom, thus his kalikutan was significantly diminished.

But may I say again how proud we are of him, that even his doctor was in awe of how mabait Raviv was.  See, a day after our EK trip we finally brought Raviv to his pedia, Dr. Resa de Jesus.  She was surprised that one side of Raviv’s neck was so swollen (and we didn’t even notice it!  Shame on us.  But Doc told us not to blame ourselves—Raviv was robust thus the oversight).  His lymph nodes were fighting off the infection that’s why there was swelling.  Doc Resa said she was sure that it was painful, and that other kids would have wailed like crazy the whole day.  But not our Raviv :’)  Awww anak.  Sana forever kang matiisin.

Anyway, to show you just how matiisin and optimistic Raviv is, here are his pictures when he had a slight fever at Enchanted Kingdom:

'Yan ba ang maysakit?!?

‘Di ba parang walang sakit?  Talagang todo japorms pa rin!

So what was my enchanting boy wearing at Enchanted Kingdom?  Let’s take a full body look:

Wardrobe Diary #34: New Year, Old Friends (January 3, 2013)

January 21, 2013 By 5 Comments

I know it’s past the middle of January, but still, HAPPY NEW YEAR! ;)

Since I was so family-oriented almost the whole December, I craved for the company of my girls.  And what do you know, I had to squeeze in two super fun get-togethers within a day!

So what did I wear?  Bilang debut ko sa outside world on this day this year, call it jologs, but I wore polka dots!  Hehe.

Welcome 2013!, says my outfit

Welcome 2013!, says my outfit

Details, details, details:

  • Polka-dot kimono from Jewels (I bought this along with the kimono I wore to Uno’s birthday party)
  • Lavender cotton camisole from ukay
  • Black pants from Sasch Jeans Italy
  • Dominant blue pumps with yellow and pink details from VNC
  • Soft leather bucket bag with leather and metal handles from Diesel
  • Purple wooden earrings from either Festival Mall or Greenhills Shopping Center (I forgot)

***********

My first “booking” for the day was with my Small Group/Bible Study posse.  I regret that I was not able to prepare for our first meeting of the month.  I originally intended to bring something really special, but at that time we were understaffed (Yaya Isay was on vacation and I have just fired another female helper).

Here’s our group photo: [Read more...]

Wardrobe Diary #30: Maxi Dress on Friendship Day (Oct. 23, 2012)

November 8, 2012 By 1 Comment

Yup, it was this year’s Friendship Day for me, for I had two fabulous dates with friends: one with friends whom I’ve last seen about 10 years ago, and one with friends I never get tired of seeing.

The previous day (Oct. 22), I was pleasantly surprised when I bumped into a former classmate in UP–who is now a lawyer!!!– Atty. Ena Ybanez.  She was in town to attend a wedding and told me she was really looking for me for she knew I’m still in Los Banos.  We quickly set a brunch date the following day (Oct. 23).

This was what I wore to our brunch:

*

  • Peacock-print maxi dress from Thailand, sold to me by our office staff Ivy  (I did not want to buy this dress at first BUUUUUUT when I tried it, it made me look thin!!!  It was very forgiving of bulges and all so I of course have to get it!)
  • Necklace from Boracay, given to me by my friend Architect Owhen Hosena (whom I miss badly)
  • Beaded thong sandals from Liliw - of course isinuot ko agad! :)  
  • Burberry doctor bag-style leather handbag

Ena and I agreed to meet at…where else, but at our beloved college–the College of Development Communication.  Ena and I were joined by two other Dev Com alum friends, Prof. Garry Montemayor and Elaine Quimio.  Elaine came with her boyfriend and her fabulous digitally permed hair. [Read more...]
