Sweet Colorful Candies

I still got a week to go before coming back home to Manila and I am spending most of my free time on walking around the City. Trust me guys when I say Hong Kong is a "temptation island" for a shopaholic like me. *LOL* So far I have two Burberry jackets, Burberry tote and Paul Smith leather belt which I will be blogging all soon.
View of Hong Kong harbor: Ocean Terminal
Yesturday I decided to visit the Ocean Terminal and the view of Hong Kong harbor never fails to awe me. After countless pictures taken and tiring long walks I took a moment to appreciate the view.
On me: Burberry Jacket, Tribal T-Shirt & Guess Slim Fit Jeans
On my way back to Central I made a quick pass through IFC mall and stumble upon the FURLA store then I saw these "eye candy" bags from their S/S'11 collection.
Furla CANDY by PurseBlog
Unfortunately these babies is need to be ordered first in Italy and then I'll have to wait for at least two weeks before getting them, *which I don't have the time to wait for it* because they were already sold out. *boohoo* I love to have it in blue or tangerine color, the bag is 30cm in length and 20cm in height and made in translucent glossy soft rubber material. For an Italian designer bag Furla is unbelievable wallet friendly handbag compare to other brands. These bag retail here in Hong Kong for HKD$2190.00 or Php11672.70. Perhaps I'll be trying my luck in Manila after this trip.

Thanks for visiting my blog page guys. Please like and share my blog in your FB and twitter account.

Summer...Hot! Hot! Hot!

Summer is coming and I really hope I can join my U.C.P.O. family this April 1-3,2011 at Puerto Galera, Mindoro. But before that I'll be visiting my parents in Hong Kong this weekend for two weeks. Where I will be doing lots of window shopping and chilling at Stanley beach.

Since summer is nearing say goodbye with your winter coats or fluffy jackets and start looking for your sexy hot summer wears. And if you don't still own a pair bikinis this is the best time to get yours before they run out of stocks. So here are some of the best swimwear I saw around the Metro Manila.
F&H (left)Tankini and (right) Two Piece Bikini. Price: Php750.00 -Php900.00
Boardshort for Women Price: Php250.00-Php500.00
If you are a kind of gal who's in the conservative type and wants to be a little bit daring F&H tankini is best for you. And if wearing a bikini bottom is still not your style you can always pair it with women's boardshort. But still my #1 choice for women is the Two Piece Bikini.
Forever 21 Price: Php650.00-Php800.00



(left) Cinderella (right) Rustan. Price: Php800.00-Php2000.00
Marc by Marc Jacobs: Turquoise Two Piece Bikini. Price Php5500.00/piece
Remember guys: Confidence is the best accessory you can wear. There is nothing more sexier in a woman who exudes confidence. Most of my gal friends are so intimidated on wearing two piece bikinis. But what they don't know about wearing bikinis is you have to be confident with your body. Once a woman accept herself then wearing bikini won't be an issue anymore.
(left) Billabong Tank top and Boardshort Price: Php 1500.00-Ph2500.00  (right) F&H Short Boardshort. Price: Php800.00-Php1000.00
And lastly for men, I prefer wearing my pair of boardshort on the beach or in summer season.

Mother of all Sunnies

You might recall me blogging about a stunning sunglasses of Gucci at Mr.Porter that I am planning to buy. But after I published that blog I got so obsess on getting a new sunnies for myself. The Gucci Metal Frame Aviator is stunning but I just can't afford to have it at the moment. In order to have it, I need to do the impossible and that is to be THRIFTY. *yeah right! me thrifty? LOL*
Gucci Metal Frame Aviator
A few days ago my colleague asked me to join her at the mall. Upon our stroll at the mall I decided to go and look around at "The Optical Shop" *without any intention of buying anything*. Then I saw this...
Large Aviator Faded Brown Lens
How I can say no with this, right? I just have to have it *hahaha*. Ray-Ban Aviator must be the most popular and most iconic sunglasses ever made. Originally design for fighter pilots to filter glare of the sun. Many celebrities *local and international* have been spotted wearing this sunnies because of its timeless and classic design. Definitely a MUST-HAVE accessory for everyone.

What do you think guys? I fell in love with it faded brown lenses similar with Gucci sunnies and on its large frame. If you are following me at twitter (@jademanalac follow me and I'll follow you back) you probably see my profile pic wearing this shade.
Please don't hate me *LOL*

The Perfect Beach Bag

Jil Sander Market Acetate bag
When going out to the beach you can't just bring yourself. Like in any activity you'll have to be prepared. Well here's my few essential out of the beach a beach towel, water, sun block, sunglasses, camera, snacks and few cash. And you certainly can not carry all of these "beach essentials" in your pocket or holding each item in every parts of your body. What you need my good friend is a perfect beach bag.
I don't usually agree on using orange, I find this color hard to use or paired with my other clothes. But this Jil Sander Market Acetate bag is excepted from all of that. It is roomy enough for all the "beach essentials" and few more stuff. I love its simple design and simple material. Acetate perfect for wet activity you'll just wipe it off and you're ready to go. The perfect beach/summer bag right?

Thanks for reading my blog! Follow and comment tell me what do you think.
