Current read, roomy new work bag, and an old elephant pendant I’m now using as a bag charm.

Intimate (but fun!) arm party.

My hairy wallet freaks Steph out.

These Guerlain Meteorites powder pearls are amazing! Instant happiness every time I open the pretty container.

Sparkly choker from Emo + equally sparkly sweater. Oh yes, I totally just went there.

Care to share your style snaps with us? ;-)

Big hugs,
Marla

I’ve always been the type of person to take “friends forever” quite seriously. The friendships I keep last for a long, long time. So most of the milestones in my life have been shared with old friends. The first time I had a real crush (celebrities not counted!), the moment I first thought I was in love (maybe it was just a case of extreme like, hehe), the first time I had my heart broken (complete with running-into-the-arms-of-my-BFF drama), when I had to say good bye to my mom (random bouts of crying sessions everywhere), and lots more that would take me all day to finish typing.

One of the major milestones in my best friend’s life happened over the weekend. (:

What started out to be one of the busiest weekends of 2012 was also one of the happiest! We had one last sleepover before she said “I do” to the love of her life (spanning 9 years and counting!). All our friends were there to witness the momentous occasion, in our ballerina-inspired dresses in Beauty and the Beast yellow. The wedding was beautiful! What made it even more special were all the details that the bride and groom, along with family and friends, made sure were well thought of.

To Marc and Laika, here’s to the newest chapter in your love story. I hope you share many more milestones together and that you continue on making that firm decision to stay together. I’m so excited for your future together. I love you both!

Love,
Macy

Hey, Candy Girls! Here are a few more pics from my Singapore trip. I can’t wait to go back!

The gorgeous Marina Bay Sands behind us.

I’m in love with their transpo system!

It’s the little things: Spot the 3D sunflower.

At Universal Studios: Po gives great bear, I mean, panda hugs.

I don’t even want to know how much I spent here.

Sentosa had a flower theme going on when we dropped by. I’d never seen a dragon this pretty.

The Skyride at Sentosa: Look ma, no footrest!

But, man, was the view worth it.

One of the amazing scenes at Sentosa’s “Songs of the Sea.” *chinhands*

At the Night Safari: Can you believe this was my very first cup of Ben & Jerry’s? Definitely worth the calories!

Still at the Night Safari: The fiercest chair I’ve ever seen in my entire life. I want one for my dream house!

At the edge of our village, there is a street I like to call My Happy Place. There are trees on both sides—and at some point, even in the middle—of the street so the air seems fresher and the birds a little louder. The place also brings back happy childhood memories of biking around with my best friend and painting pictures on the wall (there was a mural painting contest many years ago and my street won!).

I come here when I want to clear my head, feel the wind on my face, or simply get a good workout. There is a portion that slopes uphill so it’s great for running. Only people are allowed here so I can run freely without fear of getting hit by a car or chased by a dog (which has happened before!). After spending some time here, I always come home feeling rejuvenated and at peace.

What’s your happy place?

The first time I saw this video clip of Good Morning America’s feature about Antigravity Aerial Yoga, I super wanted to try it. Now that it’s already in Manila, I still haven’t tried it yet since time doesn’t permit me to.

Fly Yoga or Antigravity Aerial Yoga is a mix of different yoga techniques with the help of the AntiGravity Hammock. It acts as a soft trapeze and support while doing basic inversions and poses. It’s just like doing an act in Cirque du Soleil!

I seriously hope I could try it soon. How about you, what do you want to try to do? Share them with me.

<3,
Roch
