The Big Outlet Sale Goes to SMX!
A new venue calls for a new pet name for TBOS — The Big Holiday Outlet Sale. For the regulars, y’all know they usually hold it over at MEGATENT in Ortigas, yes? But I guess it’s time for a little change to celebrate the holiday season. This is great news for all the Southern folk. The MOA area is a little bit more feasible me thinks.

Skincare Experiments: ANEW Rejuvenate and BIODROGA
It’s not something I’d recommend you do but, yea, I do tend to try out a lot of skincare products and have gone through countless bottles, tubes and pots for the past, er, decade or so. I’ve had my fair share of made picks and rare finds. There’s joy in the journey though it sometimes can be a bit awkward to switch esp when you’ve grown used to (and actually love) the one you’re currently using. But it’s been a long road of discovery after discovery. Though I have loved, I know the search is not over. Now, I’m on day 1 with AVON’s own ANEW Rejuvenate Skincare line.

In My Birthday Suit
Although customary, a feature would’ve been in line after the dress is finished and not while it’s still in the creation process. However, in my excitement with how things turning out, let me give you folks a quick look at the dress I had let Kaye Olfindo design for me. I love having clothes esp made for me. I probably got this from my mum who, as I was growing up, would have most of her clothes made by a local modista or seamstress/dressmaker. Of course, I got a taste of it early on as I had a number of dresses custom-made for myself (from my highschool graduation dress plus the grad ball to dresses I’d wear to debut parties) I

Nestle Fitnesse Show Off Your Shape Launch
Last Saturday, I was fortunate enough to have been able to go to witness the launch of the Nestle Fitness Show Off Your Shape Promo. Why fortunate? Apart from hearing things first hand from folks behind Nestle Fitnesse, I got to see the wardrobe that’s up for grabs in person. Hehe. This launch event was my first stop of three scheduled thingamajigs for the day. It was a great way to start my day — makes up for the fact that I’m actually working on a weekend, gah — since I got to see my friend Thea again (sorry you couldn’t join us Hannah!) plus one of the

Late Night Topshop-ing
It took us by surprise when K and I saw the bright lights inside a seemingly open Topshop store in Greenbelt 3 last Friday. Twas half past 11pm you see and the main reason why we were in that area was because we were looking for a place to eat. I guess we got a little side-tracked. We certainly wasn’t expecting we’d be able to go on a bit of late night shopping. Apparently, Topshop was one of the few who participated in the late night shopping of the said mall scheduled that weekend. I’m glad since I’m always open to checking out items that are on sale in Topshop. There’s that hope of finding a gem which wouldn’t cost too much.
