Rags To Riches Collection

This season just got hotter and sexier with Rags To Riches' third Special Wardrobe collection which consists elegant cocktail and casual summer dresses. Perfectly suitable for the City's recently celebrated Festival and party events.

This special collection is modeled by Carmen Smith, Diane Ortega and Kat Alino as shown in the pictures above respectively. Jewelery provided by Irene Lo's Jewelery and accessories collection.

Rags To Riches clothing line consist of casual and formal dresses suitable for parties and everyday out of the ordinary hang-outs. Started out by 2 girl-friends of mine, Rags To Riches has made its way to the online business in a heartbeat to every girl's ordinary online shopping. Other different collections come out with different concepts for occasions. Also, Rags To Riches wardrobe collections come in very affordable prices.


Irene Lo's jewelery collection, as worn above, consist of silver bangles, necklaces and earrings. All her accessories are sold through personal transactions mostly.

Red Knight Gardens took part in providing the shoot's location situated at the Guadalupe Village, North Side of Davao City. Red Knight Gardens boasts their home-like ambiance apartelle for travelers who want to feel home away from home. With reasonable prices against competing hotels, Red Knight Gardens offers 1bedroom, 2bedroom and 3bedroom units for short-stay and long stay transients. Enjoy your stay at Red Knight Gardens's pool and bar for an unwinding experience inside the greenery homes of Guadalupe Village. 

I had my jay-jays shirt and my khaki blazer on top for a casual get-up and matched it with brown RB wayfarer sunnies. Practically, this get-up does not work on a normal sunny day because the temperature can reach to about 30-32degrees on a normal day. Ideally, I would suit this up to events and nightlife parties, and I would say that the wayfarer sunnies best suits me to get that classic look. The clothes I am wearing are not part of the collection. They are personally owned by me.

A Lyric for the Broken Hearted

Break my Heart in Two

Lyrics by: Francis Nikolo Bulaun

I keep thinking about the days when we're still together

And all the times we just hold each other's hands

But I wonder why did it fade away

I didn't get to even hear you say...

I still remember all the Promises you have said

And now I can't keep you out of my Head

But I wonder why did it fade away

I didn't get to even hear you say... goodbye

I keep walking alone

'Cause this feeling's just too strong

You told me you'd stay

And when I came back

I prayed you'd wait

'Cause you made me feelin'

Feeling like oh so true

But at the end I found out

You can't help but break my heart in two

How could you say all those things

And didn't even know what you mean

But I wonder why did it fade away

I didn't get to even hear you say...

You left me hanging by a thread

Now I'm just left alone with no Regrets

And I still wonder why you went away

All I wanted was to hear you say...

P.S.

Composition is already done but still needs to be recorded for a studio version.

I will post it soon :)

Stay Focused and Don't Look Back

"You make me feel like I'm living a teenage dream" - Katy Perry

It has been awhile since I posted a new blog. Right now, I just want to write all the things that I can conclude for the week's rollercoaster.

I cannot elaborate the point that I am not a profound writer. Although, I found out recently, through my blogs, that I am a writer. I don't know if I can safely say that I am part of a blogging community here in town, but I recently joined a group of bloggers so I still don't know if I can state the confirmation of my affiliation. I find it socially productive to be invited in a unique profound community. When they ask me what kind of blog do I have, I said, "I really don't know... it's a mix of lifestyle and personal interest... maybe it's fashion...". In my mind, it was kind of embarrassing to say the things that I wasn't really sure of.

I really don't know if I'm starting to build my career or not, but I got invited to write for a magazine which I took it without having to really think about it. I guess, I would consider that an opportunity worth accepting abruptly.

The tides have turned and brought me to a safer shore. In other words, I found myself riding through a train of opportunities.

And this week,  we finished the second concept shoot about fashion on a clothing line. I will post it soon for all you girls out there reading my blog. 


For now, I wanna share you a picture from one the photoshoot that we had.

You know, I find this picture quite interesting. The reflector and I are quite similar. We are both round. We shine light and reflect it to people. We try to illuminate the person we are fond of. We are artificially capable of helping out on a set. The reflector is elegant and formal looking... so am I. There are no words to describe us both, except round. And That is the reflector and me.

I am almost done with my writing requirements for the newspaper, and ready to show what I've got.

So far, we are working on a little project of our own. Details are still kept confidential as of the moment. Once we are done, in about 1month's time, then we will showcase it to the world.

I leave you with my quote.

"Write with your heart and show the world how you Love" - Me

Love and Gratitude

For all of you girls out there, I just want to say that I am in love with you!

I just want to thank you for the bottom of my heart through my own rendition of my friend's composition.

I hope you like it.

Palette's Desire

Before I started writing this post, I took my time dropping friends off by the pool. *Laughs*

I was just kidding. On this very night, before writing came to play, I had a wonderful dinner with my friends over at our buddy's place. His Mom invited us for a feasty dinner. There was no occasion, nor a birthday party being celebrated. It was only a bundle of joy spurring out of the kitchen. Upon arriving, I could feel the dinner table being set for a number of huge people. We could hear everyone's tummies grumbling from hunger as the thoughts of a variety of provision lingered our minds. Everyone couldn't wait to get in the house. We had to hurry and squeezed through the traffic jam when en rout to the place where the kitchen does the cooking for itself. Enough said.

A day before this night of wondrous sweet and salty temptations, our buddy's Mom had an Idea to feed us with "Lechon", called as Roast Pig, a Philippine delicacy like no other. This medium sized pork, slowly cooked over volcanic charcoals and drenched with spices inside, and the aroma of lemon grass slowly smoking inside the roast's belly, delightfully is floating us in cloud nine.

After devouring the mix of salty spices and tender oozing juicy meat, scrunches are left and an unshaped utilized pig is formed.

Scrunches can be be sautéed with garlic and onion chives to create this after-devouring dish to plate. 

This is CHICKEN POT PIE (below)... I think. Mixed with chooks, potatoes and sausages drenched in a white creamy sauce, made to a perfection of a pie. 

I told everyone that it is called "Chicken Pot Pie", answering to everybody's curiosity. Also called "Pastel".

And for the desert... tiny chocolate moist muffins! I ate one-fourth of this box. Yummmmm!

We just couldn't resist.,we couldn't wait.

Our tummies full from all we ate.

One moment on Eevee

Its amazing how small things from the start end big, right?

The Eevee Band. A band composed of four members. A band whose name originated from a "pokemon" character, or might stand the lead-vocal's initials; got their big break on a National Music Band Competition here in the Philippines in 2009. They outlasted 13 bands coming from all over the country. In the end, the competition bridged their way for a career that would play for a lifetime.

Before they got themselves heard in the big music industry, they performed locally in the city. They were slowly  letting people hear their kind of music. Personally, I find their songs nice to hear. Its like everytime you hear them play, it feels as if you are inspired to do what they are singing about, or motivated to. Its love songs with a spicy twist.

"It's not ballad, it's not outright alternative, it's like anti-stress songs, feel-good... like Michael Buble learns to rock" - Eevee on their facebook info.

Definitely, its working for them.

craig paolo enzo jerrick

The band consists of Enzo Villegas(vocals and guitars), Paolo Segura(lead guitars and back-up vocals), Jerrick Sy(bass guitar) and Craig Neniel(drums).

Enzo is a friend of mine since 1st grade. I am amused of how he persists on his dreams and how is unique with his abilities. Since I transferred to another high school, we never had the chance to hang out since then. Tilll this music auditon similar to American Idol came 3 years ago, only local. We got together and surprised each other on that day. We didn't make it though. However, this career of His did not surprised me at all. I knew it that He had it in Him all along. Well, for me, music has to find its way back into my heart. I may have lost it, but its okay.

Their debut album titled "Paramdam" is now available in record stores and in i-tunes for only $9.99
