Before I got my first HeadWare, my skull scarf and I were inseparable. It’s been around the world, high and low as a scarf, bag accessory, headband, and head gear.
While it can do a handful of things, there are things it can’t do that my HeadWare can do. Watch the video with Rovilson Fernandez below to find out how versatile HeadWare is.
Admit it: all of us have ugly days. Some, even very ugly, haggard days. I find it rather amazing that some women have this amazing talent of seeming not to have it (classic example: Patty Laurel) while some have the confidence and the looks to totally resist it (like my good friend S). Name dropping left and right, can you tell that I’m having a panget day?
I’m saving you the horrid sight so no pictures.
I’m having an extra panget day right now because I’m red all over (as in from my scalp down to my soles) due to allergies. I hate that I can’t hide it nor conceal it (it will just get worse). What’s worse is that I don’t know where I got it. The doctor said it could be the air (as in pollens and all the micro shiz we don’t see) but it might also be viral exanthem. :( Whatever it is, I don’t like the fact that I can’t divert my frustration to my favourite anti-panget activity aka. working out.

2010
Start the year right and beautiful with a lovely workshop from two authorities in the arena of training and beauty.
Studio SnR once again invites all you beauty and tea affectionados to join their Beauty High Tea Series with Bobbi Brown. Learn how to pull off Bobbi Brown’s signature, polished techniques in minutes while sipping on delish tea from the studio’s latest tea partner, Serenitea.
There are only twenty (20) slots available so do save one for yourself stat. I’ll be joining the workshop myself and I absolutely can’t wait to meet all of you! :)
It’s been a while since I’ve been to Beauty & Butter to have my nails done. I think it’s the proximity that’s putting things off (Megamall and Mall of Asia’s quite a task to go to for a Southerner like me) but whenever chance leads me to their mall houses, I make sure I stop by to squeeze in a quick and clean mani-pedi.
Last Saturday, I was treated by our friends from Beauty & Butter to a complimentary manicure + nail art. I had plenty of tasks to accomplish in MOA that day so I giddily accepted and before I know it, Jennifer (below) was taking care of me.
Cute nail stickers!
Loved the fact that Jennifer instantly saw that my nails are soft and thin so she took time to clean it through and through. If there’s one thing that will make me come back to any nail salon it would have to be the TLC I got on my first visit. :)
I was almost sold to the sticker above but the nail (polish) art samples above are too pretty! I don’t get nail art very often (I think it’s the age and full time profession LOL) so I thought of getting something silly. Or cute. Or cute silly.
After last season’s toughness and androgyny, SS2012 heralds the revival of an altogether more feminine and sensual approach to makeup— Skin that radiates a sportive, ultra-luminous freshness and health tunes into the season’s chic, athletic vibe ATH-ELITE
Languorous colour washes pick up on the soft side of the season, as tints that run from delicate peach through to blurred espresso form the most relevant way to wear subtle colour and definition NOUV-EAU
Beautifully buffed, burnished metallics accenting lips, cheeks and eyes make for the most modern way to reference the idea of a summer tan ORE-INSPIRED
Dynamic, urban, neoprene shades get a contemporary rethink, as pure-pigment eyes and lips go effortlessly edgy thanks to a new ease and lack of aggression to their application NEO-N

creams all over from the Emilio Pucci show
Without batting an eyelash, I think you can tell that this is my favourite trend this S/S. Neo-N is all about pop art, odd colour combinations, and complexion that’s airbrushed to perfection. These are my favourite looks from the Neo-N trend:
Monique Lhuillier
Prabal Gurung
Donna Karan/Hussein Chalayan/Emilio Pucci
Just Cavalli/Basso & Brooke/Sass & Bide
This Spring, ORE-INSPIRED asks you to take out all of your prized metals, coppers, rust, and peach to get that enviable glow. This trend is very eighties — liquid tan, sporty, Madonna, lingerie, lace, punches of dark lip and rock-gypsy all over. It’s very fresh, futuristic, simple, and beautiful. These two looks make me want to unearth some precious metals stat:
Blumarine
Elie Saab
