When husband and I shop, we do it separately. We agree on a time frame say one or two hours and determine the meeting place. Usually, inside the fast food, near the restroom, at the main entrance or in front of a particular store where there’s a bench to sit down while waiting. If one finishes earlier, a text or call, or just patiently wait for the other one to finish. If one is not yet done after the agreed time, an extension is issued “take your time”, But of course, take your time must not be construed as endless. There must be a limit. Half hour ba or another hour or till the shops close. It’s hard to wait with no clue until when you’re going to sit and watch other people go by.

three ladies, shopping

Most of the time I had nothing in particular to buy. Lakad-lakad lang, pag merong nagustuhan, bili. Minsan tingin-tingin lang kasi ang hirap naman magsukat ng damit. Pito ang huhubarin ko, pati medyas, Nakakapagod. And the results are predictable. “Ay pangit, halata ang tyan ko”. Tapos balik suot na naman, una sando, second thermal sando, third short sleeves thermal shirt, fourth long sleeves thermal shirt again, tapos cashmere cardigan, sixth sweater, seventh winter coat. Ang bigat.

Ewan ba what entered my mind. I was disillusioned. What made me think that this pink Kate Spade dress would look good on me.

The real orig Burberry merchandises are expensive. This winter dress is orginally priced at $3,295 discounted for $2,395. How much is that? $2,395 plus 8.25 % tax = $2,592.59 x P51.50 (credit card conversion rate) = P 133,518.26. The dress is really nice in actual. The material used are of high quality.
I suggest you go to Ford EDSA and use that money for a Ford Fiesta down payment.

When I was in high school, my Kuya Lito brought me to the Marikina Shoe Expo and I bought a pair of Roman sandals which I wore to the graduation ball. Today, parang hindi na bagay that I would wear something like these.

Lipstick colors now are no longer the traditional colors. They are as varied and creative as coffee and ice cream flavors.

Saka na ako bibili nitong white lipstick pag patay na ako, Sobrang pintasera pa naman ang mga Pilipino, “ay bakit sya maputla, anemic?” Mas bagay ito pag namamahinga na sa kabaong.
