Prom 2: Par La Nuit

Okay, I just realized that these proms have all these names I dont even know the translation of. I'm sure most know the translation of the themes but too bad for me since I never pay attention. Hahaha!

So, what I wore to MY prom.

The theme was avant-garde and so I decided to pull off some hot pink lipstick and white sparkly eyes with a turquoise dress. I got the dress at Warehouse while the shoes are by Desu from Rustans.

The prom was definitely fun. Good job to the guys behind all of it. The program was well prepared and well thought of. (Not to mention, the food was superb too! --well, compared to last week's prom.) The after prom most especially was the best. More on that later. For now, more photobooth pictures:

Out with the old, in with the new

My lovely two or three year old David and Goliath wallet finally gave up on me last week after its many years of service.

I really love this wallet especially since theres so much space inside and the material has gotten really soft with time. Its so spacious yet it remains thin even with the tons of things I have in it. Unfortunately, it was already time for replacing since the button had already fallen off.

Whats in the wallet: A ton of pictures from the past (the oldest dates back to when I was grade 7), A pile of receipts from shopping at L.A two years ago, My grades from the review class last summer, My ATM, license, students I.D, and ofcourse, money.


The old wallet was replaced with this new Ninewest purse which was a gift to me a year ago. I get a lot of purses as gifts so it takes long before I actually get to use everything.

The purse itself has such a sturdy material (I dont know if thats supposed to make it more durable?) and it gets bulky when filled unlike my old one. It's definitely smaller than the other though I'd have to say that I really like its design. Very classic! I guess the bulky-ness takes time to get used to but hopefully I'll break it in soon!

Prom 1: Bella Notte

This is what I wore to my boyfriend's prom. The dress was originally supposed to be for my prom but I found out a lot of my batchmates are just going to be wearing dresses so I decided to wear this for his prom instead.

Photobucket


The gown is actually pretty cheap for a prom dress. I got it for only P3,095 or $60. I never really had any of my prom dresses made. In my opinion, its always better to buy because not only is it cheap, but you'll know how good you'll look in your dress rather than waiting for it to be made and being unsure of the outcome. I've had many friends in the past who got their dresses made and ended up looking worse than if they had just bought one instead. About the "I might have the same dress as someone!" problem, I never really bothered especially since the kids at my school are so conscious of having the same dress. Because of this, most of them get theirs made so obviously I wont have to worry about having the same dress as anyone even if I just bought.

Just a few pictures before I go..

Today was the last day of the U.P Fair which Steph and I attended. We didnt go in though because we had another event to attend which was the chocolate buffet at the HE Building.

I made sure to dress down today because U.P isnt exactly a place to get all glammed up. So here I am wearing my new favorite plain white tee from Zara, Converse shoes, Mango bag, and a new pair of shorts that I DIY'ed just this morning. They're not so perfect yet since I havent sewn them and stuff. I just folded them first since I didnt have the time to do any fixing.

Just a few pics of the night before I go.

What I Wore: Pink crop top from Zara, Yellow tube from Robinsons, Shorts were DIY, Bag from Billabong, Shoes from Sanuk.


On other news, it was a CRAZY weekend I had. So much things happened in a span of 2 days. The good things though are that 1. My dad already knows about my boyfriend and he approves of it, 2. Well now he knows about a lot of things including my drinking so that means no more lying, 3. I already got my dorm (where I went into my future room to see how my roommate decorated her area and I talked to my future next door neighbor who's Indonesian and studies in UP too) and last but not the least, 4. ITS MY FIRST YEAR ANNIVERSARY WITH JICOY TOMORROW!! =)

soo happy we made it this far.
Dad also unbelievably allowed me to go out with him for dinner tomorrow. What a change, right? I really think my life just keeps getting better!
