THE HAPPY VISIT // I'M RED AGAIN

This post is supposed to be posted weeks after about November 2nd, but at that time I was unable to work on it because I am not in the mood, so many errands to run and the sadness that struck me after the typhoon Haiyan struck the Philippines.

This was about the simple set that I wore the day when we visit our elder’s grave at the cemetery and to tell you that I am “redhead” again! I miss being bright, fierce and fabulous with this hair color.  Actually this is not a dye, but red tint cellophane that last for about 2 to 3 weeks. Not bad at all because, the previous semi-permanent dye that I have used lasted its luster for 5 days and Voila! The colors gone and my hair become duller than it was.

Tulle dress without make-up on ;)

The day face it's death but we are still in the cemetery and playing with the lights and the camera.

Hoping for a good tomorrow, tata for now!

PLEASE READ: THE LEAST I CAN DO FOR THE PHILIPPINES

photo from google images

Whenever I see images of the aftermath of typhoon Yolanda, I am carrying heavy heart. If only I have some powers to lessen the burden of all the victims’ hearts, their horrible situations after typhoon wreck their homes; destroy their family member’s life, their condition on every evacuation centers if our government has enough to offer.

 I wanted to ask a little favor to all of my readers or whoever reads this blog post. I am knocking on your hearts to offer a prayer for all the brothers and sisters who’s been a victim by this typhoon. This is the least I can do but I know every prayer from each one of us is very powerful.

I have faith in Pinoy’s resiliency, brave hearts, and helping hands to brace to one another to surpass these immense circumstances.

SCARF MAXI

Hello Ladies! How’s the first week of your November? Do you have early Christmas plans already? Early Christmas shopping etc. Me, I have plans now but I am in no rush, because our office is still rushing something before November 16.

 If only I could leave all work behind, all I wanted to do is stay at home, stroll the streets or make an outfit 3 times a day. *Sighs* You know sometimes, I thought to myself I hope I have started this blog 3 years earlier so that, I earn a lot of outfit works or ideas. Ha-ha, I am just dreaming to become one of those early bloggers with firm niche today. ;D But well I guess, there’s always time for everything, and my time for blogging has just sprouted a year ago. ;) I wanted to do an outfit post fir this scarf print maxi skirt but whenever I wanted to do so, I ended up looking not comfortable for the set. Arggh I’m annoyed when it happens so I ended up changing clothes again.

Thriftier's Outfit:

Casio Vinatge Watch - Authentic Watches
Black Top - Listed
Maxi Skirt - Thrifted
Platfrom Glittered Heels - AsianVouge

I tried to to this animated on PhotoScape. Hell yes! As usual it's like made from a hand of a kid.

MY SCHEDULE WON'T LET ME DRESS UP FOR HALLOWEEN // FAVORITE HALLOWEEN MAKE-UP IDEAS

My problem about sparing a time on my blog is not new to those who reads my blog regularly. Moreover Halloween is just around the corner, but as this special holiday approaches, my work is doubling it’s time requirements, as if it’s we’re on “peak” time and doing a Halloween make-up or dressing up for Halloween is one of my biggest endeavor as a blogger. But the dilemma that is mentioned above is a pain..

Now I am sharing with you the make-up ideas that I really really want to try. I want you to get inspired to these images from google when I was surfing the internet last month. (Yes! Last month!)

The first one is very simple at first look, but looking at it closer, it seems that it's hard to do the lace details. The 2nd one is the simplest candy skull make-up I have ever seen so far. I have done a trial  resemble with this one but at that time I'm not yet a blogger. I have no chance to show it to you.

Ahh.. Corpes Bride, one of the greatest muses on the cosplay scene for me. And lastly, this romantic macabre/Gothic style Halloween make up below. I think the reason why I love this make-up and styling is because of the very messy and dry hair. Getting my hair messy is not a bother at all because whenever I woke up in the morning, my hair is like this.. ;P   

All images are from pinterest.com.  Credits are given to their rightful owners.

I'm wishing you all a wonderful and fabulous Halloween. I envy you girls because I can't dress up for this year. I am so sad. ;(

Happy Halloween!!!

Fangs for you,

Cassie

I DON'T WANNA FEEL THIS WAY

 Hello readers!

 Well I am sick with cold and fever today and I hope I can get well soon. I’m still in the office though,  finishing what’s to be done before October ends. I am sick and tired of the people around me that is no help and continuously doing catty-chats and talking no sense trash behind my back. Whew, as much as I don’t want to post something like this on my blog, I don’t have any outlet to cast away these negative things. Haaay.. I am so agitated even I am setting my mind not to pay attention to this absurdity I can’t getaway from it. Even I don’t want to bash somebody on the internet or in person, it makes me weak. Aarrggh!!

Anyway, an outfit post for you that I think I’m sick on the images too.. ;) Taken when my future mother-in-law (finger’s crossed) celebrates her birthday.

The trees on the right side is fake because I manipulate it with photo shop, now it looks like a crappy background ;)

Thriftier's Outfit:

Floral Crown _ D.i.y
Gold Vintage earrings - Vente
White Blazer - Asian Fashion
Floral Tank Top - Vanita Sorella
Crissa Jeans
Silver Shoes - Thrift

 Can someone teach me a prayer to cast all these evil-ish things!!!? 

Oh God, help me deal with these people or creature, or whatever you call them ..

God Bless us All. 

Advance Happy Haloween!

A GLOOMY TRIP TO REGINA ROSARII

One Sunday noon, my boyfriend abruptly text me that he and his folks will arrive to my house to pick me up because they’re going to Regina Rica. A pious place in small town of Tanay province of Rizal . This place is a sanctuary for those who soul search. The vast area of vicinity is full of lush trees and grass and hills. The true core attraction  of this place is the enormous bronze statue of Mother Mary that holds baby Jesus on her hand while standing on the hill in the heart of the place. Inside the wide skirt of the statue is actually  a mini chapel that can hold 20 persons and where the  monstrance or onstensorium is place at the center.

You know what, I don’t really good at describing a place like this one but this place is really really holy, in a way that I can feel it. And, given that I went to this place impromptu, I wasn’t able to bring my camera. So, bf’s cousins camera is enough for a little photo taking. ;)

This what Mother Mary and Jesus look like in more up-close. The fog is everywhere because rain is coming and the place is mountainous and elevated.

Thriftier's Outfit:

black and blue dress - Local Boutique

Knitted Blazer - Gallery; Thrift

The outfit I wore is just conservative because I know that the place has a strict dress code. They want the visitors to have a decent attire before entering the church or going to the foot of the mother. In some visitors who do not know about the dress code,  they have a stock of linen cloth that can be wear around your waist and tuck it to become a mid length skirt for the the extra skin that is exposed when they're wearing a short or a mini skirt/dress.

#2 VINTAGE MONDAY // I have made my Logo on Photo Shop!

 I want to share with you today.. I have made my logo on Photo Shop! Remember my past blog post with different logos and color. Well I’m just having an experimentation with my blog and hoping in the near future I will be able to design it or hire someone to make my blog a professional like made web design. Of course with the aid of my patience  boyfriend I am able to do the little photoshopping with these few letters and a little edit blur on the sides. He’s very patient especially whenever I am having issues with my “patience”.

Taken at the creepy space on the building.

THRIFTIER'S TOOTD:

Vinatge Inspired Sunnies - Random
Brass Elephant Necklace - Jewels in the Palace
Faded Gold purse - Gifted
Knitted Blazer - Gallery (thrift)
Red Shirt - Listed (offbrand)
Vintage Skirt - Vanita Sorella
Antique inspired shoes - Thrifted
 

Anyway this is very elementary and you can see some obvious flaws, I know I’m just happy with my first try.

  I've finally made the logo which can be watermarked on any of my pictures that I will post.

Because I wore this last Monday and I am feeling vintage-y that day here it is my Vintage Monday TOOTD.

Any advice for a newbie on photoshop? Feel free to share it and comment below.

RAINY DAYS AND DAISIES

Holla!

My partnership request to cityblis.com has been approved. You can see the picture below that I was on their partners page and I am so thrilled and happy because this is the second time that I was invited by a website to make partnership with after PersunMall.com. I have this feeling that my blog is starting to achieve something ( well sort of anticipating ). This is good for me because I won't have to think about leaving my blog floating, because sometimes negative ideas are crawling in my mind that I nearly give-up blogging. 

The following images below are the little photo shoot done last Saturday, when my Chibyusa had her 3rd vaccine shot. Rainy Days and Daisies, a mustard ensemble that I top with another d.i.y flower crown with fake roses and daisies. This is the first time that I use this kimono inspired outerwear, off-brand but I am proud to say that this is made by the local people in our province, and the big deal is I bought this item for just PHP 60, just a dollar right? 

Thriftier's Outfit:

Flower Crown - d.i.y
white flower earrings - Girl Shoppe
leaf charmed long necklace - Girl Shoppe
casio vintage retro watch - Authentic Watches
mustard yellow corset - Rachel's
silk shorts - chinese brand (thrifted)

Have a meaningful week!

pet loving,

<3

QUOTES FOR YOU

Before I go to work today, I brought Chibyusa my little lady dog to a veterinary clinic for her 3rd vaccine, and I was terribly worried when I saw some blood on her back. But they say it's normal because she's moving  under procedure. I don't have any ideas right now that is running through my mind except  I wanted to take photos outside because the sun shines beautifully.

SPUR-OF-THE-MOMENT

Helloooo therrreee.. Well, I am still alive. I am saying this because It’s been a month that I haven’t posted anything in this little space of mine. There’s so many hindrances that’s keeping me from posting anything. I have so much ideas and outfit post that is 2-3 months old on my hardrive but they’re still a draft waiting for me to click upload and publish. Call me princess procrastination, I deserve it! 

Mustard Peplum Blouse - Thrift
Blue Leggungs - Offbrand
Oxford Shoes (thrift) - Lucky Clover

This TOOTD took after our lunch today on a food chain on “Palm Square”. My newly discover a place near our office building. And because this is unplanned, this is shot by my old phone camera and so sorry for the poor image quality.

Thanks for the visit!

 Wish you all safe,
