Here are some fashion apps for your iPhone, free! The iPhone has it all, I would not be surprised if they would come up with apps for modern furniture like IKEA and Pottery Barn! I have this renewed interest in the iPhone since officially today, I have one! I never thought I would get one, but I did, thanks to a friend!
I am not getting any younger! I need to take care of my skin and up until recently, I have been thinking of investing on a wrinkle cream – not really the heavy duty kind but one that moisturizes and prevents fine lines. A quick search at Sephora.com revealed the ff. items:

Who would not want to have a piece of this proud collection? I am pretty sure Pinoys overseas are asking for these jackets as soon as the news came out.
didas’ much-coveted Philippine Range collection is back, featuring jackets (P3,295), shirts (P1,459) and messenger bags (P1,459) in the iconic red, blue, white and yellow of the Philippine flag.
John Lloyd Cruz in the Adidas Philippine Range jacket, P3,295.
Available in Adidas stores starting February 13, the collection has details reminiscent of the Philippine flag such as three stars and a sun and stylized Philippine seals, plus the letters PH in yellow. For premium performance look, the blue, red and white are rendered in color blocks with touches of yellow. The collection is part of the training range of the Adidas sports performance line.
Of course, John Lloyd Cruz sporting it adds to its appeal too.
I personally love this jacket ((P 3,600+). Photo snagged from here. Do you think I will be inspired to lose weight or even work out and drink weight loss drinks when I get the jacket?
I have always wanted to have a rootote but I never got to really buying one. Maybe I can get one next month as I need a “small” bag for everyday use when my kids go to summer school. I should be reading about phentermine reviews but here I am, bookmarking the bags that I like!

I have had one pair of Enzo shoes when I was 16. It was a pair of sexy heels perfect for looking gorgeous but comfortable enough to party and dance all night. I used them to death. What I liked about the pair I had was that the leather was so soft. It really didn’t give me any blisters or callouses even if I have the widest feet.
Fast forward years later, I was able to snag (good-naturedly stole actually) a pair of Enzo sandals at – suprise! – the size of 9.5! I have size 11 feet. It looked so sexy on my feet that my friend agreed to give it to me right away 
It saved me from splurging on shoes and getting payday loans online really (thanks Kikay!)
This is an Enzo Angiolini Rojo 3. So I have been looking at more Enzo sandals and I cannot help but want more!
The only problem is – should I get a 9.5 or an 11?
My friend Faye (www.quicker8.com) has gone from selling to Coach bags to designer bags, specifically, Gucci Bags! They are selling on such an incredibly low price (check it out here) that you would be so tempted to get one because the prices are such a steal. Even getting a payday loan to get this would be worth it.
I an letting these great deals pass as I am on a purse ban for the rest of the year. But if Faye comes out with another set of designer bags I just might not be able to control myself! I am actually looking for two specific styles and if I see it I cannot guarantee that I won’t be able to buy it! (I won’t be posting the bags I like because Faye might read this post and come surprise me with it!)
Designer bags is just one of the many topics we have in Twitter lately. A friend is selling Goyard bags, another is selling pre-loved designer bags from Japan and the rest are just addicted to buying designer bags (and shoes and pretty much everything else!)
And if football wasn’t popular enough, football was lucky enough to have David Beckham – it has drawn women to the sport like a moth to the flame.
So who made a party out of Super Bowl Sunday last February 7th? I know a lot of husbands who threw barbecue grill parties to have friends over so they can watch Super Bowl Sunday together – football surely has a way of binding men together!
There are a lot of footballs out there – they even come in different sizes.
Match balls are becoming increasingly popular and more accepted so as buying football merchandise all the time. There are even video games out in the market featuring football.
How was your Valentine’s Day?
We were one of the wise people who stayed home and did nothing because we knew there will be so much traffic and people out in the streets romanticizing the idea of the need to celebrate Valentine’s.
My husband surprised me with flowers and a book yesterday though. I knew he didn’t just pick that from the garden window boxes of our neighbor landlady because it was arranged and all. There are cute window flower boxes I would like to try after seeing the window plant boxes of my landlady. It really added to the beautiful picture of her home, which she situated at the two windows flanking the entrance door of her house.
It looks something like this: 
The question is – do I have a green thumb to make flowers in their boxes grow?
