Birkenstock & Isis

Published by B under Mine, Window Shopping

Another thing to add to my wishlist are a couple of pairs of Birkenstock. First is the classic Taupe Suede Arizona. I love those sandals with two straps. I remember on my orientation day in college, I wore a pair of black two-strap sandals (Esprit) and one of the older guys shouted at me that it wasn’t allowed in the university’s dress code. Haha! Freshman pa lang pasaway na! Of course, I didn’t know about it and later on they considered it given that you should wear socks. And one of my crushes, named Nilo, remembered me because of those slippers. He told me I was cool. :D

I remember also that I had a of sandals almost similar to this one except that it’s not Birkenstock. I wore it almost everyday going to school. Unfortunately it finally gave up on me when I brought it to Boracay, I think. Anyway, here’s another pair that I would love to have, a Strawberry Isis (Birko-Flor):

This reminded of the scents that I used to wear back then also, Mark & Spencer’s Isis and Florentyna. Those were my signature scents when I was in college according to my friends.

So, that’s more about me. Talk to you all again next time. I’m off now to go shopping for silk ties for my friend.

Marie Antoinette Headband

Published by B under Mine

I just made my very first Etsy purchase. Well, not really my first, but it’s the first one for myself. Haha! Lookie at what I bought…it’s an antique style, Marie Antoinette inspired headband.

Isn’t it gorgeous? I was also planning it with this bracelet below thinking it would go together. But I decided against it because I thought it would look overkill if I wear the headband and the bracelet at the same time.

And I also think that the filagree looks a little big… people might mistake me as a piece of furniture. Haha! So, what do you think about my purchase? I can’t wait to receive it!!!

I’m telling you, window shopping on Etsy is really dangerous. Instead of me saving up for something more important like a new computer or a health insurance or a new pair of rubber shoes at least, I’m spending my money on accessories! Haha! But I promised myself not to spend too much in there. And looking at the accessories there actually inspires me to create my own. Now, I’m so looking forward to go to Quiapo to buy some beads! And who knows, maybe one day I’ll end up selling my creations too! Haha!

Travel Essentials

Published by B under Mine

I love to travel! And I love outdoor trips! It all started when I was in senior high when we had a bivouac and I really enjoyed the experience. When I got to college, our school had an outdoor club and I joined. It gave me the opportunity to go different places around the country and experience different adventures. Of course when going on outdoor trips, there are some essentials that I need to bring everytime and I eventually adopted it whenever I travel, even on non-outdoor trips. And I’m going to share them with you here on my blog. I never go on trips without most of these stuff.


TP | Alcohol | Insect Repellent | Wipes

 
Tripod Stool | Waterproof Pouch | Emergency Poncho | Chow Kit

 
Mini MagLite | Nite Ize Headlamp Headband | Victorinox Camper | Lighter

There you have it. Can imagine now how much stuff I have with me whenever I go on trips? Too bad I was never a girl scout, I could have been a good one. Haha!

Okay, I’ll go search for auto insurance online for my uncle. Laters!
