Tonchaya: Japanese Kitchen & Bar

Image
F inally adding a category on my blog on #wheretoeat in the city (you can view some of them under the categories menu). This time, I am featuring Tonchaya: Japanese Kitchen & Bar at Bonifacio High Street located at The Fort Strip. Once in a while, my family would eat a non-Filipino cuisine and on that day, we tried to eat the Japanese way ---- ordering some of our favorite Japanese dishes including Okonomiyaki and Gyudon on a hot summer day! We enjoyed their food and decided to bring home some of them because the serving is just too big for three people and knowing that, it's safe to say that the price is just right for the dishes.

Fringed Out

W hen there's a lot of music festivals happening throughout the world, opened by the most famous Coachella I can't help but feel a little bit jealous over the fact that amazing musicians are going to perform, there's an all day-all night party with your friends and wearing a boho-themed that looks like you're out of the Pocahontas movie looks normal to everyone's eye. But not everyone, can attend --- including me! This outfit is the best way I can welcome the festival season and also my "let's pretend i'm attending coachella" look thus, the best way to do it is by wearing a gorgeous crochet fringe top from and acessorize it by making use of a lovely butterfly clutch (can also be used as a shoulder bag) which are both from Dresslink .

Staycation: Wilson's Place Tagaytay

Image
A s promised, here is a special post from last month's staycation at Wilson's Place Tagaytay . I couldn't think of a better way to welcome summer than staying overnight in a comfy bed in a bed and breakfast place and floating around on a donut inflatable in a huge pool the whole sunny day and being far away from the busy city is just a plus. The whole place is absolutely filled with a lot of unique things, there are sculptures everywhere (proof is on this post) , the main reception/dining area is colorful like springtime (check out my other post for that) , there are different chairs in each table and matches very well together with the whole room's design in a very unique way. To be honest, I almost wanted to take home one of their chairs! It was pretty amazing knowing that we were the only ones who were checked in that day. The staff were very nice to assist us in almost everything, they're very accommodating and makes us feel at home all the time. Our ro...

Girl, Stay Sassy

Image
I 'm back from what seems like forever with a new layout, some fresh new ideas and a lot of blog posts on queue. Whether I'm welcoming spring in London or any other part of the world, it's always a must for me to welcome it by wearing colors that represents spring. And who doesn't think of springtime when you see pastel colors everywhere? Like a little girl in a dollhouse, I dressed up and wore my Stay Sassy top from H&M (raise your hand if it reminds you of a cute emoji!) and my denim wrap up skirt from Topshop that I got as a Christmas gift for myself. We shot this inside Wilson Place Tagaytay's main reception/dining area and believe me when I say, the interior design is amazing (will post more photos on a special blog post featuring Wilson's Place Tagaytay).

Stuck like a Statue

A s much as I love wearing jackets and coats there just one problem, I mean a big one... I live in a tropical country and when you visit one of the coldest place in your country, you just have to make the most of it and I mean, wear your newest coat and never been used boots. We stayed overnight in a dainty and almost private hotel in Tagaytay city called Wilson's place (more about that later) and across our room is this little corner filled with bronze sculptures that made it easy for me to choose where to shoot this outfit.

Boracay in a Nutshell

Image
I t's funny how much I missed doing video diaries and ever since I came back here in the Philippines, I couldn't make one since I practically don't travel enough or visit interesting places but that all changed when I went to take a short vacation with my friends and decided to go to Boracay. During this trip, I was practically the one who holds her camera 24/7 everywhere (maybe I'm exaggerating a bit on that one) and well, I just had to document everything we do... and the outcome? Finally a video diary! (see video above)

Always Summer Somewhere

I 've been contemplating whether or not to post this (almost outfit) photos from my trip to Boracay but I realised I haven't posted any outfit photos for a month now and so here it is! The intense summer heat motivated me to wear a brighter outfit color for the day and what better way to dress up in a bright colored neon bralet, white pleated skirt (which I got ages ago!), a beaded slippers that looks very boho and a boater hat which is a required accessory this summer season. I guess summer is not an exemption in accessorizing yourself because now, hair accessories is the perfect thing to wear.
