Blazer On and Off OOTD

 

Hello AMW Friends!
I am still working from home with various ZOOM calls and interviews with clients for HR jobs.  Yes, if you don't know, I am still on the HR field!  But I'll keep that a secret as my job is somewhat like CSI :P  #JustJoking 

So because the heat is going crazy and wearing a blazer is still important to some culture like that from Japan and Hong Kong.  I've invested on my favorite pastel colored coordinates (they are actually NOT coordinates as I bought them separately!)  Thankful for the similar shades I was able to call this a coords!

Blazer: From Hong Kong, Shorts: Zalora, Inner Tank Top: Forever 21

And because of the heat, I can easily remove the blazer while waiting for my next schedule and do mom tasks like tutor and cooking!  I make sure to wear my apron thought OR ELSE :P

How do you like this look?
Would you wear this too?

Keep smilin'

Stay happy!

 

Happy Mother's Day with Trufa Pasta Bar and Kumori

 

Mother's day is such a special day for me because I get to celebrate with my 2 moms --- my mom, and mom-in-law.

I always make it a point to visit both moms on their special day and buy them food as we bond over it together with some story-telling.

This year, since it is technically NOT the end of pandemic yet, I've decided to bring food to both my moms and chat with them instead of dining with them to protect them.  Because our language of love has always been food-gifting, receiving food as gifts meant so much to me this Mother's day!

Trufa Pasta Bar sent me their bestselling Mom Bundle - 

Coca De Jamon Y Arugula Pizza and Spinach Pesto Lasagna!

It comes with a nice bouquet of flower and scented candle!  

Kumori also sent me their limited edition Mother's Day cake called Mango Tango.

The Mango Tango is a three layered classic mango cake made of soft vanilla sponge, coconut cream mousse, cashew meringue, decadent cream cheese and mango layers!

Ikoo Home Detangling Brush Review

 

For someone who loves to take care of her hair for many years!  I have heard using the right hair tools like comb and brushes would make a difference to the final look of your hair.

I used to be a hairstylist, a professional hairstylist!  I own a lot of combs, brushes and detangler God know how much I spent on those!  But never have I felt a brush could be THIS effective on FIRST USE!

I was in denial and even had to show this brush to my husband and he was amazed as well!

The brush is indeed created in a sense that it felt like a mold made specifically for your hands!  The cute curve is perfect and easy to hold even if the brush does not have an extra long handle.

Divoom Fairy-OK review

 

If you worked with me (at least once) in an office setting, or rode with me on a public transportation on the way home during college or work days.  You'll know how much of a music lover I am!  

I listen to music A LOT, I have a speaker that connects to my phone almost every corner of my home because music keeps me going!  I even have various background music for special moments of my life!

The first time I met my husband and the song that made me kilig? - "Calling Your Name Again" by the Carpenters.

My practicum days at the airport? - Shape of my Heart by the Backstreet Boys.

The first kilig moments with my first boyfriend (now hubby)? - "I Lay My Love On you" by Westlife.

And so on....

Naku, you guys can definitely see how Tita I am with the choice of songs.  But yes, that's how important music is in my life and owning a good speaker is something else.  When I discovered Divoom speaker from a good friend Marj, I never realized how a good quality, and powerful speaker can make a HUGE difference in your muni-muni moments.  I mean, this little cutie looks cute and small but tough in terms of good, quality sound system! 

And that's not all, aside from the Retro-vibe, it comes with a cute MIC that has perfect quality like that of the speaker!  I am so happy I swear I put this on my bedside and listen to good music and relax as I play my games or read my favorite book!  

A plus that the mic is the best way for me and my son to bond over random music!  WORTH EVERY SINGLE CENTAVO this gadget I swear!

Divoom Fairy-OK speaker is priced locally at Php5,650.00 available in Pink and Green at LAZADA.
