Cheap Fab Finds

Yesterday, after attending the church's Sunday service, i went shopping at Robinson's East Mall with my mom, my son, and my sister Ina. My mom and I both have the same weakness..bags.But since my husband told me not to shop for bag anymore because i received 3 new bags already this Christmas, i diverted my attention to clothes and accessories. After a couple of minutes of checking so many display of clothes at the ladies apparel section, i spotted this gorgeous little white lacy dress! It was love at first sight. The lacy details was awesome and the price was totally unbelievably cheap. I bought the dress for only Php 400! Best steal ever!

This mini dress is perfect  during weekend date at the mall with my family. It's very comfortable to wear and perfectly match with cute flats or thongs. The price..Php 399.

Maroon + Black Chic Debutant

Today, let me share to you one of my creations perfect for a chic and sophisticated young lady who is about to celebrate her much awaited eighteenth birthday. So here are the details. What i love most about this invite is the sketch of a girl with umbrella which i just found on the internet. It's sooo beautiful. I'm sure you will strongly agree with me. Then i put the floral swirl in the corner to add vintage-y look. I picked the combination of maroon and black coz it's perfect motif for a formal and elegant event. For a finishing touch, I
put a black satin ribbon around the card so it doesn't look just a plain half fold card.

Filipinana wedding invitation

This is an example of a spring inspired native wedding invitation. Although the event will be held in California, the couple are both Pinoy and they wanted their wedding invitation to have a native pinoy appeal. So the materials i used in this invitation were all native products like the sinamay, hand made paper and dried grass.
