Philippine Fashion Week Day 4: Cary Santiago's Show

Hello Charmed people!

Hope you enjoyed watching the PFW! Especially those fashion bloggers who want to show off their outfits and to those who just want to stalk fashion icons out there. Haha :D. I just attended Cary Santiago's show along with my fellow bloggers and the winners of my invites giveaway. Unfortunately, my cellphone malfunctioned that day, so I wasn't able to contact them (even my parents!)! I was only able to meet one winner, Geri! Nice chat with you!

Here's our shoot!

Laced Cardigan| Embellish

See my top? That's actually the LBD I wore at DDG Grand Launch! It's an example on how you can dress up or down an LBD. :D




If you are a keen observer, I repeat clothes, but I do keep in mind to mix and match and wear them on different occasions and groups. 

Collar Necklace | Summer Dream

Bangles| mine
Ring| Summer Dream

Pumps| The Landmark

It's my school bag! Haha XD

And here's Geri!!!!

If you happen to visit her blog <http://gerimagsakay.tumblr.com/>, you'll notice that she buys her clothes from thrift shops and ukays. That's why I blog hop on her blog and read her posts 'cause I don't buy from ukays 'cause I hear those we're from unwanted sources (okay, you know these things right?). But when we chatted, we talked about how to safely shop on ukays and where's the place to buy. And it's really a money-saver! You can't guess that Geri's outfit just sums up around Php200!!! While my pumps(which is the newest) already worth 500pesos! See? see? *sighs*

Anyways, back to PFW. Here's the runway.



I was with Nana and my new friend I just met in the line, Joy.

Here are the design's of Cary Santiago. Seems familiar? Yes, some of these gowns were those worn by Camille Co, Laureen Uy and Tricia Gosingtian for the Preview Magazine cover.

This outfit looks very "Effie Trinket" to me! I'm so excited for Catching Fire na!

And here's my favorite!


The back view

I wonder why I'm so fascinated by this type of design. Well, they are so intricate! I just love it. :)

And that's it!

What about you? What's your PFW story? Share it!

Eiga Sai:Japanese Film Festival 2012

   Hello Charmed Girls!

It's just a fresh, sizzling post straight from the UP Film Institute! I just got home from watching a movie of course! What's more? It's FREE!!!!!

   I've just discovered Eiga Sai: Japanese Film Festival 201 from Nana's blog (pursuitofnana.blogspot.com) and became interested to it because one of the screening venue is at UP Film Institute so we just went there a while ago after our classes and the thing is the admission is FREE!!! It was a great start-up for the long weekend especially the movie that we watched was really fun and light.

About the movie, we watched "Happy Flight". Here's the synopsis.

It was our pick actually, among the other movies offered, plus the screening schedule is so perfect. And it will only be shown once in UP FI. We had the witty choice, right? 

The screening time is 4:30pm, according to Nana's blog, we should at least go there 30mins earlier  since it's a first-come first-served basis.






I came here with KMae, she's a freshie but we are of the same batch since she started her college year from other school but she transferred here in UP in a different course so she is considered a freshie. Luckily she agreed to accompany me!

  Happy Flight is an aviation movie. Here you will see the how the airline flights go, not only inside the plane itself but also the mechanics, the airport officers, the weather forecasters, the pilot, the stewardesses(both cabin and land), and also the bird boy (the one who shoots the birds to avoid engine problems in the plane)! It was a thrilling (the landing-due-to-bad-weather-and-first-hand-pilot scene!), humorous (Each of the characters has a colorful story, so what do you expect? :D ) , informative (I was totally awed on how the whole airline sectors work just to secure a safe flight!)  movie that also tells (airline) life lessons.
I totally recommend this for all ages!

We had a fun,relaxing night! There were a lot of available seats in UP FI! Why don't you visit? Sit back and watch. :)


See you!

Love,

MoMo
