5 CUTE THINGS

I just want to share another side of me. It is my love for cute things even the word "cute" is cute for me. hahaha. It's in my system, When I was a kid I used to collect stationeries, stickers, and erasers. I always end up to the point of buying something just because it's cute or pretty even though I don't need it.  I know most us have the same way of behaving when it comes to buying the things we don't need.  It's like a good example of what our life is:  a constant battle between what we want and what is right.  I was told before that in order to control yourself from buying too much, you should ask yourself first if you need it or if you're going to use it.(sounds pretty much the same, i know.)  Well, sometimes it works but I still believe that it is not a waste of money, because the happy feeling I always get from buying those things is so worth it.  As long as you know how much budget you got and always stick to that limit.

Sorry, I have been blabbing too much, I hope that it even makes sense. Anyway, all I want to post are the "cute" things that I bought on my last trip to HK and Macau, which I have previously mentioned on this blog site. So here, I am going to post the 5 cute things that fitted my budget (of course):
(prices are all converted from HK dollars to Peso)

1. Lip gloss

I was surprised that it comes in different gloss colors inside.

I also bought another lip gloss that looks like chocolates, which I already gave to my sister and forgot to take a picture of it.

Loafers are back

Hi! My newest addiction when it comes to footwear is.... Loafers! :)

Did you know that loafers were first seen during 1930's? well, It is really a classic footwear and I'm glad that they're back. :)

sorry for the poor quality of the photo

Recently I bought a new one at Cole Vintage, The Ramp, Trinoma. They sell super cute loafers, that I had a hard time choosing which one to buy.

here's mine:


Here are the DO's and DONT's about loafers according to OK Philippines magazine(my fave mag) issued this June 2011:

DO pair it with cropped pants, skinny jeans, and mini-skirts.
DON'T wear it with below-the-knee skirts to avoid looking dowdy.
DO invest in high quality leather so your pair can last for years.
DON'T wear it with ankle socks. Go for opaque tights if you must.

here's me wearing my first loafers that I bought while I was in Hong Kong:




How about you, Is there something(footwear in particular) you are interested about lately? :)
would love to know.

Hey! This is my first set from polyvore, just testing the water. I've been wanting to explore polyvore since I heard it from a friend a long time ago. It is fun and interesting only that it is sooo time-consuming and I don't want to waste much of my time out of it. but at least , my curiosity is now satisfied... :)
