I just had my hair color last week. I went to my favorite beauty salon and let the hairstylist colored my hair. I actually chose the burgundy color but the outcome was like dark brown or caramel like shade. I don't why, maybe because my hair already got some color before. Oh well, I’m still satisfied with my new hair color.  I wanted to spice up my look so here it  is my summer look with my colored hair. Having the right hair color can greatly change the total appearance, do you agree with me my friends? You just have to choose the perfect hair color to fit your personality and character. So why don't you bring out the new side of you and give yourself a new look too! :)

My Mom recently purchased this new coffee maker because her old machine got a problem and she said that it's too complicated to program everything so she preferred to buy a new one.  She is such a coffee lover and she can't go out without having a her first coffee.  Aside from being a coffee lover, she's also fashionable with it comes to clothing, accessories and everything. And oh! did I say everything? Yes because aside from her clothing, her coffee maker machine in Zebra print also looks fashionable! See? the black and white zebra print coffee maker matches her outfit!  

This is my one and only pink eyeglasses that Ive been wearing for almost 7 years. As you can see it already shows some signs of aging (LOL) I mean the wear and tear where the color of the frame has been removed already. My hubby accidentally stepped on it but thanked God the glass was still okay that's why I still able to wear it. But I really need to buy a new pair since my optometrist told me that I do have a high eye grade and since I'm also wearing prescription contact lenses, I also need an eyeglasses with the same eye grade. As of now I'm looking for some fashionable eyeglasses that would fit my eye and my personality as well. I love pink so I still choose those pink framed eyeglasses. I love wearing eyeglasses like these both for medical purpose with a bit of trend for fashion and style.

When I first saw this elegant looking dress from my sister’s photo in Facebook, I feel in love with its fashionable style and design. I liked it even more when I saw it worn by my fashionista mom. It’s actually her own dress. My sister just used it when she attended a night party together with her friends. My mom is currently spending her holiday here with us and one of her plans from her holiday is to have a reunion of friends from her college batch mates. We were also invited to attend this social occasion that’s why even before she planned this event, I already told her that I don’t have a nice dress to wear for the party. And since I know she has lots of nice and elegant evening dresses from her closet and as I also browse her photos , I told her that I would like to

One of my mom's plan after she will resign from her job 5 years from now is to run a boutique business. She has the passion for clothes and she's always IN for the latest and trendiest designs and styles from the market today. We have a friend who also runs a clothing business in one of the malls here in our place and she referred us to her supplier that sells wholesale clothing in Thailand. She usually travels there every month to buy the latest clothing and accessories.  Thailand is actually famous for buying wholesale clothing. The more you buy, the more discounts you can get.
