Good To Gos

NYX COMESTICS | MISTLINE COSMETICS | HAPPY SKIN COSMETICS | STARBUCKS PLANNER | CREDITS TO DAD'S PHONE


#what are the good to gos?

                Those days when you feel like bringing just a small pouch or let alone clutch just to keep the day simple and carefree, but you worry too mucu on leaving all your essentials at home. That’s a big “Ugh NO! No way!”.  Definitely no-way! So my good to gos are my version of daily essentials that I couldn’t go a day without, those things I always have to bring with me, wherever I go. Either it’s a beach getaway or just a stroll in the city, and even those things you have to keep inside your personal bag during trips.



#Concealer/liquid foundation

                “It’s better to keep them both”, mainly because those ragging heat going through your face is enough to erase your foundation, and you feel like going to a comfort lounge and pull it off and then take a re-touch. Yes, and it’s the best feeling in the world having to put them again after the scorching heat outside, plus you can  always stay out through the night meetings with friends still looking fresh. So yes, my first good to go is a must.



#the nudes

                Who’s going out without a lipstick? - Well, let me say the NUDE lipstick. - When I’m out for lazy day, I don’t feel much of coating red or something dark, I always have to make up with the nudes, because nude lipsticks makes everything looks fresher and natural. And it’s a good thing that I don’t have to think of retouching my lipstick because it’s closer to my natural lip color. For my good to go nude, my top favorite is NYX Soft matte lip cream in Stockholm, I love its peachy toned. Very natural yet not too plain. A secret to it is that you can look innocent at night outs. (I'm giggling) So yes, it is good to go in plain lippies!


#press foundation

                The finishing tool- Foundation is good to go for the quickest touch up upon arriving and in leaving. I bet 85% out of 100% girls go out with a press foundation -  I mean who would like to go out without having to touch up that oily or sweaty part of your face during the long hour travel with dust and after all the mess you’ve been with friends? Of course, a press foundation is the only life saver.



#Planner

                Happy to still slay this Starbucks planner I claimed during the holiday season promo, – why of all things we need to bring planner? First, it’s because we always have to the check-ups on what to do for the day. Simple as that and it’s not bad to bring a planner with you along, mostly when you feel like wanted to go for coffee and stare at your planner wondering what to do the next day. It’s feels good to ponder something like that every now and then. So for a tip, always bring your planner with you!


so girls never leave your essentials unattended! ciao,

Ripped and Casual at Choobi Choobi's Grand Opening


Blazer - Jastap Shoppe (fb onlineshop) | See-through Sexy Top- Sunkissed | Bottom- thrift | Sneakers - Primadonna


 In doubt on what to wear during the grand opening of the newest second branch of Choobi Choobi in Cagayan de Oro, made me pull off something ripped yet keeping the casuality in it. Since I ran out of thoughts to wear - whether to be sporty or casual? - so I did both, considering my mood for not wearing anything short, so I went out on a thrift jeans I bought for 250php. - That's a good-to-go-ootd which I made it possible to look, still, fab.








FEAT.  Choobi Choobi Limketkai

Finally, another Choobi Choobi opens its door for the Kagayanons at one of the grandest mall in the city, Limketkai. Choobi Choobi, which proudly brings in juicy seafood straight from Cebu’s shrimp farm, which offers Cagayanons a fresh and unique seafood dining experience. Imagine a fresh catch of seafood served to you in exciting, flavorful ways. Well, we never have to go on an hour all the way to Cebu to experience that, because finally it's here in Cagayan de Oro.





best selling dishes
And for the most exciting part, "let's taste them!"



My favorite: Whole Choobang



And to top that seafood experience, well it was "Lingaw" a visayan word which means "fun". Which is also Choobi Choobi’s tagline “lingaw lingaw kaon”. 





And it even doubled the Lingaw Lingaw when you had the chance to meet, greet and eat with one of the most awarded celebrity in the Industry, Choobi Choobi's very own Ambassadress, Erich Gonzales. 



Crazy Trivia
It's a good thing I went on with a blazer, - and I'm even doing it every Restaurant launch invites - because it would be a good help to cover your stomach from being so full. - The whole picture speaks for itself.
