First and foremost, I know most of you won't really read this but to those who will give me their time and read my thoughts, a huge thanks to you. 

I guess the title of this blog post says it all. As I write this second to the last blog post of The Beautiful Disaster, I am still quite undecided whether to continue or to stop. Part of me says "Stop!", the other part says I have to continue. I guess it's really about time for me to take my blogging life to a whole new level.

I have been on tumblr for years now, I started when I was in high school and I had no idea back then that the word "blog" or "blogger" or "blogging" even exist. If you will try to scroll 'til my blog's first few pages, you will find silly posts, reblogs, etc. I didn't even know how to use the "text" part of tumblr properly! Please, no judging! HAHA! 

There is nothing constant in this world except Change. In order to survive, here in my case, in the blogging world, I must learn how to keep up. To survive, I must drop my old weapon and pick up a new one. 

To all who have been a frequent visitor and supporter of The Beautiful Disaster, thank you so much! To Asprey, who first sent me my first event invite addressed as a Blogger, huge thanks to you and more power! To those who address or know me not by my name but by ENTICING MISHAP, thank you so much! You have no idea how overwhelmed you all made me feel. I feel so proud and makes me really wanna cry when you recognize me and call me "Enticing Mishap" :')

Enticing Mishap Dot Tumblr Dot Com will still be available. Personally, I would still visit this page really often and reminisce. I have so many personal posts in this page and I would loooove to immortalize them. :')

I will be writing another blog post regarding details of my new blog. I have been actually working on it for quite some time now and it should be up and running real soon, just in time for the 5th Bloggers United. 

Thank you so much for being part of The Beautiful Disaster. As long as the page visits and all the counters are still changing, I will continue writing, I will continue Blogging. :')

I hope you still continue giving me your support. 

After being with The Beautiful Disaster, join me in my..........

JOURNEY TO THE TOP.

I now declare that I am officially the Queen of MIA! Bow down to your Queen! HAHAHA  It's been more than a month since my last blog post and I know, I know, that totally sucks.

Anyway, this is going to be my first blog post with my new hair length. Having a really long hair is somehow annoying and hard to maintain so surprisingly, I don't regret cutting my hair at all! 

I feel so in-season or "updated" because this look is somehow like Laureen Uy and Verniece Enciso's outfit posts and it's plainly coincidence. Maybe wearing a chaleko is really the trend? hihi 

this is a very casual and "easy breezy" look perfect for the very hot weather here in Philly. 

Shoes from Nike (Jordan)

Sunnies from Ray-Ban 

Denim blazer from Human

Bag from Nine West

White top from Gap Kids

Watch from Gucci

Denim shorts (non-branded)

Brown belt from Bangkok

Silver earrings from Accessorize

Necklace, bracelet with spikes (non-branded)

The favorite vacation of almost every student is just right in the corner. Can't believe how fast time passes by, another semester is about to end and vacation plans are now at the top of the list of everyone.

Summer is and will always be associated with heat, bikinis, beach, and of course colorful and breezy outfit. For boys, summer will always mean unending photos of girls in their bikinis! Don't dare deny this fact, boys! HAHA! 

  Here is my colorful and breezy outfit which can be worn from a day full of errands until a night of having fun.

If you're wondering why this post is entitled Summer. Versions. Prints, it's because this outfit has 4 versions, has prints and colors, and it's definitely in-season. 

For the first version:

For a day full of errands or meetings, being comfortable with what you're wearing must be your top priority. I suggest that you put into consideration who you're meeting with and venue of the meeting. If you can be a bit casual, feel free to wear flats. 

The dress I was wearing in this look is sleeveless so during daytime, I don't want to show that much skin so I decided to wear a cardigan. To make it stylish and not a very lazy look, I wore a belt.

This is how it looks like without the cardigan.

After running errands during daytime, time to have a fun night out! And wearing flats to a night out is such a BIG NO NO! So............

Wearing high heels makes your outfit less casual and just tidbits less comfortable.

According to studies, high heels are like source of "power" for us women. So make wearing heels a habit! Hoorah for Girl Power! 

another version, the sleeveless version. 

White Cardigan from US brand Enough About Me

Clutch from Calvin Klein

Watch from Gucci

Bracelet from Ate Shai Lagarde of Love Chic

Colorful dress from American Apparel 

Floral flats from MSE

Blue and pink heels Janylin

I've been really interested with business since I was a little kid. That is the main reason why I decided to take up Entrepreneurship in College and being in the business industry is the top thing that I am so certain of in my life.

I own an online shop of detachable collars and it's been up and running for, if I remember it right, a year or more now. 

For the first time, Kjuelhio Detachable Collars will be having a CLEARANCE SALE.

For the Peter Pan collection, they are now down to 120 pesos. Original price is 250 pesos.

for the super cute and girly Madeline collection, they are now down to 80 pesos. Original price is 180 pesos.

I got a lot of "I don't think I can pull it off" comments from girls during bazaars. If you have the same sentiments, I hope these outfit photos may help you.. 

Think you can now pull off detachable collars? I think you can! We all can!

Who said you can't wear black on Valentine's Day? Well, I did wear black on hearts day! LOL 

This is what I wore during my post-valentine's day dinner date with Christian.

Boyfie wanted to keep everything about our dinner date casual and simple so I've decided to keep my outfit simple too. Something simple yet chic and of course since I'm with my boyfriend, I want to wear something that would make me feel 'sexy' and confident.

And by the way......trust me, my boyfriend is the only person who made me and can still make me appreciate or even love something "Simple". 

I'm so hooked with wearing leotards for quite some time now. 

Since I am petite, I can wear almost everything and anything that I wish and that includes skin-tight clothes. 

Don't you just love how leotards enhance our curves? hehe 

According to E! and fashion related shows that I've seen, gladiator shoes are officially back this year! So it's time to bring out those gladiators that you got a year or two back. They are fashionably 'in' again!

Shorts from Folded and Hung

I'm finally blogging again after months of being MIA! hoorah! 

Like what I've said in my previous blog post, an outfit post about what I was wearing during my first styling gig will be posted next so here it goes!

I did my favorite magic in this outfit, giving something a new purpose!

If you've been visiting my blog for quite a long time now, I'm sure this top looks really familiar to you.

It's because it's similar to the one I was wearing HERE. (Please do excuse the very amateur blog post. I was just starting with blogging that time. HAHA! )

It's actually a dress from Shapes which I've decided to wear as a top.

At first, I actually had no idea what to wear since it's my first time to have a styling gig. I was just sure of one thing: I don't want to be either under-dressed or worse, over-dressed.

I opted for something comfortable and simple but wouldn't embarrass me in front of Patti Grandidge or make me look like "what-the-hell-is-she-doing-here-she-doesn't-look-like-a-stylist". Got it? HAHA!

I totally understand now why Camille Co keeps on saying that she just wants to wear flats when styling someone. I was actually going to wear flats instead of these wedges but I didn't wanna look really small. Good thing these Melissa wedges are sooo comfy!

Dress worn as top from Shapes

Black skirt from Essenxia (similar HERE)

Bag from Gucci

Watch from Fossil

  I hope you liked it! 

Comments will be greatly appreciated.

Ciao! 

PS:

Thanks to my cousin, Camilla, for taking these photos. Great job, kiddo!

[enticingmishap]

1/17/2012, a big day for me! I was an Asst. Stylist for a day. It was indeed a great experience for me! 

(photo grabbed from Etcetera's host, Patti Grandidge's instagram. Taken while we're watching American Idol on ETC while waiting for Patti's next set.)

if you've been reading/visiting my blog for quite some time now, I'm sure you're aware of my relationship with the lovely couple bloggers behind Love Chic, Kuya Seph and Ate Shai. Last week (if I remember it right), I received a text message from Ate Shai asking me if I'm in for some raket. Of course I said Yes right away! i wouldn't say No especially if it's from Ate Shai or Kuya Seph, for sure it's a great opportunity, eh? 

I arrived at Megamall, the first venue for the day-long shoot, around 8am. Elevators and escalators aren't up and running that early so just imagine me literally running up the not moving escalators until the 5th floor. Why was I running? Because it was scary inside Megamall! Stores were all closed and there were only 2 or 3 people in each floor. Scary but great experience. 

as an assistant stylist, my job was to help Ate Shai in choosing or preparing clothes and accessories for Patti Grandidge. 

clothes and accessories for the Beauty and Butter shoot. Ate Shai chose a very chic neon yellow gladiator sandals for the footwear. 

inside the Beauty and Butter nail salon. I super love their store, lots of very crafty, creative designs.

the two very pretty Beauty and Butter models and Patti Grandidge.

Fun fact, Beauty and Butter call all their personnel Buttercup. Cute, right?  In this photo, that's a Buttercup sterilizing the tools that she's going to use in doing Patti's nails and toenails. 

Working girl in the house! Ate Shai, the segment producer and stylist for Etcetera. I so love her job! It's the kind of job that I want, actually. You're having fun, working with a great team, meeting lots of new people, and you're getting paid for it. Really my kind of job. 

Patti patiently waiting while the camera team are setting up.

the digital nail art section. i got really fascinated with this, you can actually have your photo taken through this machine and then have it painted on your nails!

It was business as usual that day at Beauty and Butter. Hello there, customers and Buttercups! 

I wasn't able to take photos when we arrived at the next location. We (Ate Shai, Patti, Ate Mayesa (Patti's make up artist) and I) sort of decided to have a slumber-party-like bonding.

I am not sure when this segment's going to air. Follow me on twitter: @KaiteMariz for updates, I will definitely tweet about the airing time of this segment. 

Thank you so much to Ate Shai for this wonderful experience! Definitely looking forward to working with her again. And of course with the whole Etcetera family too! Such great people. 

Now who's gonna say first times don't actually turn out fine? Mine was perfect! HAHA 

Outfit post of what I wore will be posted next. 

[enticingmishap]

Receiving gifts is and will always be my fave surprise. I love giving gifts and organizing surprises for people I dearly love so receiving such will never fail to make my heart melt. *insert overflowing hearts here*.

first up, present from my aunt!

my aunt, who I call Mommy Grace, gave me this very classic wayfarer last Jan. 6 just before we head to Enchanted Kingdom. I think we can consider this as vintage because it's now 18 years old! She bought it during her college days. A real classic, I know.

I can't believe my aunt was able to keep this together with the 'product registration card'. Looking at that piece of paper, I think it's quite obvious that this thing's already old. Classic old.

Isn't she a beauty? No damage, no scratch. Good as new!

second, gift from a friend.

These mugs were given by my sister-at-heart, CJ. Obviously, these are not just for me but for my boyfriend too.

Most couples normally has a 'pet name'. Me and my boyfriend, Christian, call each other "mommy" and "daddy". 

These are from Me and U. A cute store that sells paired products. Perfect for couples! Especially those couples who are fond of having almost everything paired. LOL!

lastly and my most favorite, gift from Love.

Last christmas, Christian and I had a quite hard time in thinking of what to give each other as a gift so we've decided to do things a bit differently. We were the ones who chose our gifts! HAHA! We're cool that way. 

When he asked me what I want for christmas, I just told him to surprise me. He didn't tell me what he's gonna get for me 'til it's finally time to buy the gift. He made me choose from a lot of brush sets because he knows that I am very sensitive when it comes to quality. 

my first ever legit brush set! Contains 13 brushes which I don't really know how you call each one of them. HAHA! I just know how to use them but not all of them!

I haven't used any of them yet. Not even one! I feel like they're gonna get old easily if I use them already. LOL silly me 

Thanks a lot, Love, for this! You know I love it so much

Enchanted Kingdom is our local version of Disneyland. I find it really amazing how these amusement parks can magically turn everyone back to being a kiddo even just for a while. 

It's been years since I last went to EK and last January 6 was actually my first time to visit it with my family.

meet my cousins! Pretty cousins, handsome brother, and a cutie baby boy. 

(front L-R) Sophia and Camilla. (back: the tall girl's Bianca, my brother, Chelsea, and our cutiepie, Ethan)

Let me share with you tidbits of our magical Enchanted Kingdom experience. 

outfit shots for Bianca? LOL! Just a bit of info about her. She's only 14yrs old, 1st year high school from Miriam College................and she's 5'7 tall. I know, I know! She's way too tall for her age. I wish I got those long legs too *sniff sniff*

of course I taught her to do that "blogger pose". HAHA!  She's wearing her new Dr. Martens booties, btw. Don't you just love it?!

top from Hollister

skirt from Essenxia

sneakers from Creative Recreation

cap (gift)

brown spiked bracelet (gift)

silver necklace (which I use on a daily basis) from Silverworks

purple Mickey Mouse watch from Hong Kong Disneyland

vintage wayfarer from Ray-Ban

PS: Ladies, if you want to wear skirt to an amusement park, make sure you're wearing cycling shorts underneath, okay? To make you really comfortable running around, jumping, or do any movement that you wish.

a blog post will be up after this. I'll be sharing about my "couple mugs", Love's christmas gift, and this vintage wayfarer.

Have you tried or at least heard about the "killer ride" in Enchanted Kingdom called EKstreme? If you tried it already, congratulations! You're courage is impressive too! HAHAHA! Yes, I tried it already but ONCE ONLY! In my opinion, this ride requires more courage than Space Shuttle.

photo taken before our souls left our body for a while. HAHA!  we were still smiling and laughing and throwing jokes. Wait 'til you see our faces after the ride. LOL!

The lady on my left is my aunt Thess, on my right is Bianca, and beside her is Camilla. We were the only tough ones in our family. HAHA! *got bragging rights forever*. 

up, up, and awaaaay! Those legs really remind me of an octopus. 

*tada!* this is how we looked like after the longest 1min 40secs of our lives. All drained! The feeling's really indescribable but I am only certain of two things: I can't even shout and it felt like I was only sitting on thin air during our way down. BEST RIDE OF MY LIFE!

EK visit wouldn't be complete without a photo with this cool old guy, right? 

This has to be my fave photo for this blog post. Meet my uncle, Tito Frank. He's the dad of our cutiepie baby, Ethan. I am so proud of our baby 'coz he wasn't afraid at all during the ride! I forgot the name of this ride but it's like the junior version of EKstreme. Ethan was just laughing and smiling all the way! He's such a big boy already :')

[enticingmishap]

Allow me to welcome 2013 with a backlog. I know it's not the perfect way to start the year since backlogs are quite not a good thing but I'd like to see it in a positive way since it's going to serve as my year starter. LOL 

This is what I wore during Paskuhan 2012, the annual university party of my dearest alma mater, UST, held last Dec. 21, 2012. Yes, during the so-called "End of The World". Were you one of those people who got fooled by Nostradamus and the Mayans and actually got paranoid that the apocalypse might really happen? Well, I was! HAHAHA! 

Anyway, I opted for something simple since it's a long day for me. Itinerary for that day was bonding with my best friends the whole day, watching the much-awaited Paskuhan Fireworks, then going to 7th HIGH for my promoter duties. It was indeed a long day, packed with happiness! Of course there were some chaos too but still a fun day. Thanks to my best college buddies who were with me the whole time. 

this blog post is entitle "Little Ralph" because the polo shirt that I'm wearing isn't actually mine. It's my little brother's! I really love wearing my little brother's clothes because they fit perfectly in my petite body structure plus they let me look or at least (HAHA!) feel sexy while sporting a boy-ish look.

it was just a really simple and comfortable look. I wore a different pair of heels when I went to 7th HIGH. 

Polo from Ralph Lauren

denim shorts (old)

heels from Melissa by Vivien Westwood

watch from Gucci

necklace and bracelet from Silverworks

photos were taken by my dearest friend..........*drum roll*

pretty Kaymie! I love how patient she is in taking my outfit shots. She's the easiest person to drag to take my outfit shots! She never complains tho I know I am so annoying already. HAHA! Thanks, Kayms! 

my fave photos of me and Kayms that night. Taken by my dear boyfie.

Hi, readers and visitors! Let me share with you a look which I actually wear on a very casual event like going to the mall or friend's house, etc.. Last night, me and my college friends had a small get together at Eton Centris and this is what I wore. This, so far, is my simplest look that I'm going to share here in my blog. 

I got this bag last Bloggers United 3. I joined a random contest sponsored by Accesorize and got this bag as a prize. 

Shirt and belt c/o my mom. Shirt's from Singapore and belt from Bangkok.

my current fave sneakers! 

Like what I said, this is a very simple and casual look.

shirt : Universal Studios, Singapore

denim shorts : (old)

bag : Accessorize

belt : (from Bangkok)

sneakers : Tretorn

watch : Disneyland, Hong Kong

silver necklace and bracelet : Silverworks

Hope you liked it. HYPE and VOTE for this look on LookBook and Chictopia!

PS: I hope this won't be my last blog post EVER! LOL 

[enticingmishap]

Last weekend, World Trade Center witnessed how bloggers do bazaars. Well, bloggers do it in a high-fashioned way, of course! Where can you see bazaar sellers who are wearing heels and really glamorous clothes? Only in Bloggers United! And where can you see brand new things being sold in only 500 pesos or less? Not to mention branded things! Well, ONLY IN BLOGGERS UNITED!

 I really had a great time last weekend. Thank you so much to all who dropped by and bought at the Love Chic booth especially to those who bought Kjuelhio detachable collars! 

This is what I wore during BU4 Day 2.

top : Pink Manila (The Ramp)

dress worn as pencil skirt : CoExist

watch : Gucci

bag : Prada 

shoes : Janilyn

If this outfit looks familiar to you, it's because I've worn this before already (you can check my lookbook account) but in a different way. It's in a sexy style because I wore the dress as a mini skirt. I was opting for an elegant and clean look so I decided to wear it as a pencil skirt in this look.

please do HYPE this look on LookBook and VOTE for this look on Chictopia! Links are available at the right column of my blog. 

being in the Love Chic booth, helping the lovely couple Kuya Seph and Ate Shai, is the best thing about Bloggers United! 2 days perfect bonding day with THE Love Chic, my dear best friend Janine Cham, and my super supportive as usual boyfie. 2 days of non stop kwentuhan and non stop laugh! Thank you so much to Kuya Seph and Ate Shai for letting me join them. I definitely learned a lot as in a lot LOT! LOL  They inspired me so much too! Now I am more eager than ever to become a very successful blogger just like them.

I was starstruck with the famous bloggers around me. Oh and by the way, I was exchanging jokes and laughs and hugs and beso with Dani Barretto! I know, I know, I am lucky. LOL! Can I just say that she's really really nice, super duper jolly, and oh! Do I still have to mention that she's so tall? I was in heels and she's wearing flats but she's still taller than me! I am envious. *sniffs*

Our booth was located at the (facing the stage) right side of the stage. It's a first-come-first-served basis so we weren't able to really choose because we were just a bit late during the first day. I think we still got the best spot tho!

if you're wondering if they're really together, YES THEY ARE A REAL COUPLE!! Haha  It's not just a publicity stunt like what the "couple" famous on youtube is doing. *ehem* I didn't mention any name, okay. It's up to you to make a wild guess of who I am talking about. LOL 

for the sake of my first time readers or visitors, meet my pretty best friend, Janine Cham. The woman behind the art blog and online shop, True Fidelity. Go visit her blog! I am sure you'll love her and her crafts and everything about her (LOL) as much as I do. 

Vanessa and Daniel Matsunaga (according to Kuya Seph! ) Oh I'm sorry. I mean Janine and Seph Cham. LOL!

*Sorry for the blurry photo. I was sort of in a hurry to take a stolen shot, eh.*

This is the typical scenario during the Bloggers United. Wanna know what makes me smile the most? The reactions of the readers when they see Love Chic. They're like "OMG it's Shai! And omg there's Seph too!". I was like, "hold your horses, girls." HAHAHA! 

Now for the highlight of the Bloggers United 4......can you guess who's the famous Hollywood celebrity who joined us? *drum roll*

Shay Mitchell from Pretty Little Liars! I honestly didn't know that she's a Fil-Canadian. She's so pretty, hot, and nice! She's here for ETC's Pretty Little Liars and she went shopping with her mom too during the BU. It's actually a surprise, nobody was informed that she's gonna visit. Not even the bloggers who own a booth.

Here are my fave photos during the awezumm weekend.

*photo grabbed from Love Chic's twitter account*

This was taken during Day 1 of BU4. Couple bloggers? Couple booth owners? Couple assistants too! LOL  Don't we look so cute together? :"> Love was indeed overflowing at the Love Chic's booth!

*photo grabbed from Janine's twitter account*

This was taken after we had dinner at Eton Centris after a long, fun, and bittersweet last day of BU4. I look like a little kid hugging my boyfriend! HAHAHA! 

That's all, folks! Again, thanks to all who visited LoveChic's booth! 'til the next Bloggers United! Congratulations to the BU organizers for another epic event! 

[enticingmishap]

To those who loves bloggers and blogging, just like me, well it's time for our favorite event again! Bloggers United! Can you believe that it's the 4th BU already? Seems like it was just yesterday, okay I'm OA, seems like it's only been a month (HAHA!) since the very first Bloggers United. Who supported the Bloggers United since Day 1? I did too! I can still remember my first BU experience. How 'bout you? 

Last Bloggers United (click here to see my BU3 blog post), I was lucky enough to be part of the bazaar not just as a visitor, all thanks to the lovely couple, Love Chic! And I am really excited to inform you that it'll happen again in the BU4! I'll be at the Love Chic booth again and Kjuelhio detachable collars will be available there! Hoorah! 

BU4 is so far the biggest Bloggers United. It'll be at the WORLD TRADE CENTER, that's why! If you're a fellow Thomasian or a blog reader/visitor, please please pretty please do approach me or tell me because I would really as in suuuper love to have a photo with you. 

So I am hoping to see you at the World Trade Center Tent this weekend, Dec.15-16. Bloggers United will be open as early as 10am and if I am correct, it'll be until 12 midnight. 

Ticket price? 50 pesos ONLY! So bring all your friends and let's have hella fun! 

Don't forget to drop by the Love Chic booth, okay?

Ciao!

Yes, I am on instagram too! Here are some of my instagram photos.. 

my instagram account contains not only random photos but also personal photos so if you're following me or will follow me, you'll be seeing a lot of photos of my family, dear boyfriend, and friends.

(a) Meet my stepbrother, Marx Topacio. This is my fave episode of Kahit Puso'y Masugatan. This is my fave episode because he got slapped in public by the gay character who's in love with him. Plus he was also drinking beer but in real life, he's not really much of a beer drinker. LOL

(b) couple-matching stuff!

(c) my cousins, (L-R) Camilla and Sophia

(d) christmas vibes at home

(a) with Francine and Francis while getting dolled up for the halloween party at 7th High. Our halloween in a high-fashion way :D

(b) my fave photo of me and my boyfriend, Christian. 

I use my instagram for "work". I am working as a Promoter at 7th High and a blogger so as part of the social media promotion industry, I think having an account where I can share work-related photos is 'a must'.

(a) Bloggers Dom Tiu, Vern and Verniece Enciso and actor, singer, Sam Concepcion in our booth during the SuperSale Bazaar last October 2012.

(b) my SuperSale Bazaar ID

(c) repost from Vern Enciso. She posted on her instagram the goodies she got during the SSB. Lower-right photo is a detachable collar from my online shop, Kjuelhio

(d) Kjuelhio detachable collar designs

(a) my Lady Gaga-ish shoes. Promoted my recent fashion blog post

(b) I also invite everyone to party at 7th High through instagram.

(c - d) promoting my online shop of detachable collars, Kjuelhio.

just like any other instagram accounts, mine is also full of so many random photos. I guess that's the main point of this site, right? To post random photos. :)

(a) current book that I'm reading. Usually, it only takes me a day or less than 2 days to finish a book but Divergent is really good, I don't wanna end reading it so I'm reading only one chapter a night. LOL

(b) [repost] it's a walk-in closet. I've been dreaming to have my own walk-in closet since I was a kid. I swear I'm going to have one when I already have my own house. 

(c) the very gorgeous Miranda Kerr during the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. I'm totally going lesbo for this woman!

(d) my fave mantra. I'm actually planning to have these words inked on my skin. :)

(a) nails painted with pastel blue color

(b) my BB Bold 9700

(c) Kiehl's face toner. It's a must have!!

(d) nails painted with what I love to call, 'bitchy red' color. It's my fave!

Do you know any girl, typical girl, who doesn't take photos of herself especially when she's bored or she gets hold of a camera? Well, I am one typical vain girl! And sometimes, one frame isn't enough for me. HAHA! 

like what I said, sometimes one frame isn't enough for me. HAHA!

(a) photo taken when I was trying out my new MAC lipstick given to me by my sweet daddy. Btw, no filter in this photo 

(b) photos during my first ever photoshoot when I was 16. I'm sure most of you have seen these photos already. 

(c) because I believe that HAPPY GIRLS ARE THE PRETTIEST!

(d) fruit of boredom photo. LOL

Please do follow me on Instagram!

I instantly fell in love with Vanilla Cupcake Bakery the first time I saw it. I actually discovered it by accident. I was in Trinoma with Christian last Monday and I wasn't honestly in my perfect mood but when I saw Vanilla Cupcake Bakery, I knew I just really had to sit there and try their goodies. I am so glad I followed my instinct! HAHA!

I am not really a food blogger, in fact this will be the first time that I am going to seriously blog about a certain food brand. I hope you'll like it! :)

I find it really amusing watching the staffs put frosting in the cupcakes. To me it's like they're doing some magic.

this is how the magic starts. Look at those round frosting! I really thought they're ice cream. LOL! 

I literally watched Miss-I-don't-really-know-her-name work on some magic. Those cupcakes with the white sprinkles are the finished product just waiting to be displayed.

The first thing that really attracted me with Vanilla Cupcake Bakery is their really cute style. When I first laid eyes on their glass chairs and their couches, I knew I had to sit there. The place is just so inviting!

I don't know why but those yellow wooden chairs remind me so much of Beauty and The Beast. :D

These really amazing seats are from Heima. No wonder why these seats are just so magically inviting. 

I think it's now time for the main reason for this blog post. The cupcakes! Are you now ready to be hungry? Make sure you won't drool! :P

those cupcakes at the top part remind me so much of a famous Filipino delicacy, the puto! :D

let me share with you something I find really really funny.

I was looking for the twitter account of Vanilla Cupcake Bakery the other night so I typed "Vanilla Cupcake Bakery" in the search bar. I saw a tweet of some random girl who was really mad with Vanilla Cupcake Bakery even saying that they have really poor staffs. Why? She said she ordered "Vanilla Chocolate" cupcake but got really disappointed when she opened the box (I assume it's a to-go purchase) because she saw a chocolate cupcake instead of vanilla. I find it really funny because it's entirely her fault! She wasn't reading the signs first before purchasing! Pity because a lot can see that tweet. Lesson? READ THE SIGNS, PEOPLE! LOL!

I am someone who loves "a little salty and sweet together" so I'll make sure I'll try this one in my next visit!

On personal touch, I tried 4 of their cupcakes already and never was I disappointed! Read more, I'll share more of my thoughts about these deli cupcakes.

Of course a cupcake bakery wouldn't be complete without red velvet cupcakes, right?

This is currently my favorite red velvet cupcake. The cupcake tastes really good plus the sweet taste of the frosting made it even better! Don't worry because it's not too sweet, this red velvet cupcake tastes just right. This is now my fave because of the sweet frosting unlike the other red velvet cupcakes that has a bit of sourness in the frosting. (I'm imagining I'm eating one right now *cries*)

I am a chocolate lover and a newbie caramel lover too but eating both at the same time might be a torture to my throat. If you think this cupcake is sweets overload, you're wrong! It's not too sweet which makes it really perfect! I know kids would really love this because my 3yr old cousin, Ethan, likes it a lot! He just went really hyper after eating. HAHA!

I am not really a dark chocolate lover but my boyfriend is so this is his choice, the Valrhona Chocolate cupcake. He's literally like "yuuuuummmyyy!!" the whole time he's munching on his cupcake. Ladies, you know what to do now, huh! Remember, the way to a man's heart is through his stomach! :)

4th cupcake *photo not available* that I as able to taste is the Luscious Chocolate. To all the sweet tooth or to all who are really obsessed or going gaga with chocolates, I recommend this to you. Trust me, it's like you went to chocolate heaven because of the choco madness in this cupcake. It's a must try!

If you're wondering how much these cupcakes cost, here's your guide.

not bad, right? You'll have a happy tummy, I swear. :)

They don't just offer cupcakes. They also have cold goodies!

I'm really wondering how their Tiramisu tastes so it's a must for me to try it the next time I visit! *tummy growls* PLUS I am in love with the presentation. teehee!

Also, I really have to try their pastas. Me and my boyfriend are pasta lovers so perfect bonding for us! :)

Thank you sooo much to all the staffs of Vanilla Cupcake Bakery, Trinoma Branch, for being extra nice and being so accommodating! Thank you! See you all in my next visit! :)

Visit the Vanilla Cupcake Bakery in Trinoma located at 2nd level near La Senza now! I swear, you won't get disappointed. Your tummies will be absolutely happy! :)

Hola, visitors and readers! For this blog post, you'll be seeing another DIY, customized, and new-purpose look styled by yours truly with the help of my dearest friend, Francis Torres. 

Anybody GOT MY HEELS? haha! These shoes are nothing but awkwardly fabulous. (LOL, WHUT? 

) It was given to me by my good friend, Francis Torres, as a gift during my 19th birthday last July. You have no idea how much I went "eeeeeek!!" when he handed me these.

Should I call Lady Gaga now and hangout with her? I bet Lady Gaga will go GAGA when she sees these. HAHA!

my top's actually a guy's shirt, not just a typical over-sized shirt. I rolled the front part then tucked it in for it to look in proportion to my skinny body type.

boyfriend's shirt : TOPMAN // black ragged shorts : What A Girl Wants // black bracelet : Armani Exchange (old) // gold watch : Carriage (old) // customized heel-less shoes : Pill

And my blog is alive again! One big hoorah for me! HAHA :D Just a quick fashion post for you, my dear readers and visitors. :)

This look is something that I'm going to wear on a lazy-casual-chill-day with my friends or dear boyfie. :)

wondering why this blog post is entitled "Touch of Siam"? Because this look has a touch of Siam! LOL :) The shorts I'm wearing were bought by my mom when she went to Bangkok last month. I didn't know my mom got great taste in fashion! HAHA :D

if you're wondering or quite scared that a detachable collar might not look good on you, I hope this look can help you. You can wear a detachable collar even on just casual days. All you have to do is make sure that the style and design fits your outfit perfectly. Remember, accessories can make or break your look. They can enhance it, make it look way better, or it can totally destroy the whole outfit. So be careful! :)

blue and purple beaded bracelets from my friend, Ishko, and floral and colorful beaded bracelet from Hong Kong.

Summary of what's on me:

Aztec detachable collar : Kjuelhio // black strapped top : non-branded (old) // red and black high-waist shorts : from Bangkok // red watch : non-branded // purple and blue beaded bracelets : gift // floral beaded bracelet : from Hong Kong // black bag : Gucci // black booties : People Are People

If you think I was able to pull off the detachable collar or if you wanna try wearing one too and see if you can pull it off too, contact me now for orders! More choices, styles, and designs on Kjuelhio's facebook page. Link is available at the right side of my blog :)

As usual, please do not forget to HYPE this look on lookbook and VOTE for this look on ChicTopia!

Ciao! <3
