Cray CRAY!

 Sorry for not posting. My life has been, as the title says, CRAAAZY! And not in a good way either. Because of all the craziness that's happened, I'll be here in Manila for the next few indefinite months (so yes, I shall be a blogger living in the Philippines for a bit), and since I won't be in the US, I unfortunately won't be able to blog for Claire's this coming August. Which of course SUCKS, but hopefully when I get back, I'll be able to do that. 

On a high note, I now have a lot of free time to work on the jewelry line (and then some), make up the lost time I have with my family and friends, and basically rediscover my roots!

This coming week, I'll be having a shoot with some of my jewelry, so I'm crossing my fingers that I can start showing you guys some more stuff, and start having items for sale!

And I'll end with a picture of my dog and my boyfriend's dog :) I miss my puppy so much!

Hope everyone is doing well!!!

Face!

Hey everyone! So, I didn't get the Apple job. No big deal! Like I said, I was so glad to even be considered for an interview! Other than that, I'm back on doggie duty which is cool cause I get to work on my designs and my blog (and of course spend time with the little fur ball)

I have a couple of pending posts that I have yet to work on like the Top 10 thing I was tagged to do, and another review post I want to do.
 

Reviews: Swatch + OPI

 

 Hey guys! How is everyone doing? My life is getting a little bit more busy with the blog and a couple of new career opportunities that I'll tell you guys about when things are all set in stone. 

But for now, let me share my reviews on a couple of products that I've recently bought:

What's Your Excuse?

To all the petite girls out there! Do not be afraid of the maxi trend! If you love it and it makes you feel comfortable and sexy, go for it! 

Just so you guys know, I'm only 5'0. People usually think I'm taller cause a) I have a really short torso, so my legs pretty much make up for most of my height, and b) I wear clothes in a way wherein I can look taller

So a little tip if you're short like me and you want to wear maxi skirts or dresses. Go for the empire silhouette for dresses, and for skirts, go back to basics and wear your skirts where skirts were originally meant to sit, your true waistline (smallest part of your body). Or if you have a long torso, cheat a little bit and wear that skirt up!

Lately, I've sort of been on house arrest ever since we got our dog. He's good and pretty easy to deal with as long as he gets his walks, exercise, and food, but he's still a pup (2 and a half months), and he can't really be alone in the house yet. 

It's good though, this down time sort of relaxes me and it gives me time to read. The down side though is of course, the fact that I don't go out as much, and I don't get to work on my blog as much as I would like to (don't get me wrong, I can post "inspiration" pictures all day long, but I'd rather post pictures I've taken myself)

Sup?

Now here's some inspiration for your thoughts

Cuteness Alert!
