Vera Wang F/W 2011

People who know me best know how much I love weddings! I love looking through wedding sites, Tumblr wedding sites and designers' wedding gown designs. I love wedding photography--it looks hard but I think the results truly pay off--and of course, wedding dresses! I love the girly feel it brings--tons and tons of chiffon, tulle. And although there are also structural and classic wedding gowns, think about it, it still has that girly element to it. Doesn't every bride feel like that little girl they once were, finally getting their dream come true?

 I just haven't gotten around posting about weddings on this blog though, cause you guys might think I want to get hitched already! No way, highway! Anyway, every bride-to-be has a go-to designer in mind when it comes to wedding dresses and that is Vera Wang.

Vera Wang creates the most gorgeous, ethereal, feminine dresses. It's like her hand was as light as a feather while sketching. If I were to be a wedding gown designer, how I wish I could be half as good as her. I looked through her website and here are some of my favorites. Most of them came from the F/W 2011 collection.

This dress is called the Harlow from the S/S 2012 collection. Classic ballgown shape. Perfect for the unconventional bride who doesn't wanna wear white. (BTW, did you ever notice that Vera loves cinching the waist with a sash?)

Halloween Costume Peg

On the occasion of Halloween, I just wanted to share with you guys some of my pegs for a Halloween costume. I've graduated from the witch/fairy/princess stage literally, and would only go back that era if executed in high fashion. Yep, blame it on the influence of America's Next Top Model and  too much watching of the Victoria's Secret fashion shows! Now if only I could pull these off!

Leslie from ANTM 6. I've always loved the idea of a sexy bad wolf!

Miranda Kerr as the Statue of Liberty. Well, why not?

Alessandra Ambrosio in something Tinkerbell-esque

Candice Swanepoel as a sexy maid. Oh dear, I bet the male employer would be very, very happy.

Karolina Kurkova in the 2006 Hearts On Fire Diamond Fantasy Bra. I love this cause she's like a snow angel, although thinking about wearing this trick or treating in the Philippines is.. I can't even.

Oh well, stop here. 

Just warming myself up for the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show on November 29th!

Hola Halloween

Sometimes I think this is more of a food blog than a fashion blog, don't you think? Ever since I've taken to blogging about some tidbits of my personal life, I noticed I've been posting about food a lot. Well, what can I do? That's our family's way of bonding--trying out new restaurants every week.

Yesterday, after trick or treating at Insular Village, we ate dinner at Hola Espana in Damosa Gateway. Actually, we were supposed to eat in Pizzeria Michelangelo which is al fresco, but since the restaurant and pizzeria were adjacent, we chose to sit inside the restaurant.
