TOPSHOP

TOPSHOP

TOPSHOP is currently the place to shop for fashion conscious people in UK and the US these days. I am curious as to how the clothes there look like. With all the buzz it's been getting, more so when Kate Moss signed in.

I found TOPSHOP's photo at (again) http://chicinparis.wordpress.com/ . I read the following entry from the same site:

"...of the moment fashion at great prices. With the pound making London a very expensive city these days its nice to find fun clothes at bargain prices. TOP SHOP now has a vintage section..."













Phoebe Behind the Scene

I came across this interesting tidbit about Phoebe Cates. It somehow caught my curiosity 'coz it was once thought that she figured in a car accident before and because of it she passed away. And it was tought (I think even these days) that she is part Filipino.

Thanks to http://chicinparis.wordpress.com/ for the following tidbit.


one of Phoebe Cates latest pics

"...former actress and now boutique owner of the eclectic Blue Tree boutique in New York City. Phoebe has a funky look and style. Her wardrobe is made up from an eclectic selection from her discoveries abroad. Her greatest asset is her hair – a super cut and very shiny ..."

As young as ever...

famous! no questions asked!

We got introduced to Victoria “Posh Spice” Beckham via Spice Girls. When she got married to David Beckham they formed a very popular dou. Their influence is felt in the fashion industry, ads, and almost anything they put their hands on. Here’s some photos of the couple from http://perezhilton.com .

I find their photos sexy. I can sense that they really have a special and very warm relationship. I think no husband and wife can pose for such a testosterone laden photo if they are not that comfortable in their relationship.

Wow! this is something!. They really have the real thing. Ithink so, if you're in that kind of relationship you can sense it.

the most important thing

when we're young we consider food, clothes, shopping, shoes, hanging out, as some of the most important things...

things change, perspectives change, and mine did more than a couple of times.

my boyfriend gave me a different perspective of things, more so when we got married.

and it changed again with the birth of our first born,

my son and I
the loss of a newborn, and more so when our bunso - our daughter got confined at the hospital...

life is a process, and this thought sinks deeper with each life's lesson that comes our way...

other photos in Ilocos

here are some of the pics that we took during or vacation last December '06 in Ilocos

Elmer and JB were relaxing in Aunty Pil's sideyard when this was taken (during our 1st day)

this is Solsona's municipal hall

the "teatro." this is where i saw a lot of programs (be it during the town fiesta, school presentations, etc.) since childhood until my teen years. i can "vaguely" remember a Marcos political sortie when i was still small, that was the 1st time i saw Marcos and Imelda from afar, there were a lot of people then, and there were bus loads of artistas...

the "improved" basketball court in Solsona now doubles as the tennis court

taken infront of the water fountain in Solsona's town plaza (December 2006), taken in the afternoon of our 1st day there

JB and Joy infront of the new unpainted statue at Solsona's town plaza


this was taken in aunty Pil's frontyard after we went swimming in Gasgas (river)

This was taken in Laoag, Laoag's Sinking Bell Tower can be seen in the background, as well as the park with its December 2006 holiday decorations


Elmer infront of the Tobacco Monopoly obelisk in Laoag's town plaza


the building behind Elmer is the Hall of Justice. the young Marcos lawyer was incarcerated in one of the rooms in that building while being charged as Nalundasan's assasin

JB at Ocean Adventure

After waiting for the other batch (from the Tiger Safari) our bus rolled on to the Zoobic (the other side of the jucntion is a mini-zoo). We bought a blue ostrich pen there (for JB).


JB near the sleeping black bear


It was JB's 1st time to see a live bear (unfortunately it was sleeping while we were there, it must be the weather).

Then the buses all went down the mountain on to Ocean Adventure! We were first given packed lunches, the lunch really isn't good! It consisted of fried chicken strips too peppery for JB's taste and the chicken strips really are hard to bite (matigas na mukhang na-prepare earlier), the juice was not to JB's taste also, even the macaroni and cheese, fortunately i made him eat his portion of our baon kaya he really wasn't hungry then.

After lunch we were ushered to the sea lion show.

The Sea Lion Show

JB just finished crying here, he wanted us to sit at the upper stand but i choosed the lower benches near the stage (for a closer view of the show)

the sea lion show

After the sea lion show almost everybody went to the souvenir shop, JB choosed the blue dolphin stuff toy. I told him to share the stuff toy with Joy. We also bought 2 Ocean Adventure key chains.

Then we went on to the ice cream stall we bought a scoop for JB, the ice cream was not that good (haluhalo flavor) it was a Magnolia ice cream but it was just not to JB's taste, so I ended up eating the ice cream which cost me 40 bucks(!) for one small scoop!

while waiting for the whale and dolphins show



the whale threw its trainor up in the air!


We then hurried to the grandstand for the dolphin and whale show. almost all seats were occupied by then. JB was excited, he walked up and down the stands even to the veery side just to have a closer look at the baby sharks below the stands.
