Cute ChildrenDresses from Debenhams

I love the clothes being sold at Debenhams. When I went at the Debenhams Trinoma branch I enjoyed looking at the children’s dresses as well as the knitted and beanie hats.

Children's dresses at Debenhams

I told myself I finally found a store that has styles I like. Now if only I can fit into the dresses and tops, I would be a happy camper, 😀

Homemade Body Scrub

My first time to make homemade body scrub or DIY body scrub.

Here was what I did:

Body Scrub

 

Ingredients:

Just mix together and voila! (I deliberately added the brown sugar, that light brown part, to show how it looks like)

How to use the DIY body scrub: You can use this before bathing but be sure to wet the body parts you want to use the homemade body scrub with. Gently use the scrub on your elbows, foot and even face. Wash or rinse with your usual soap or facial/body wash.

Skin will be supple and soft after you rinse the homemade body scrub off. Wash the bathroom floor just in case there is oil residue that might cause slips to the next user.

Easy peasy. If you want to use coconut oil, you can do so. You can also opt to remove the sugar.

You can also use an electronic ph meter if you want, no one is stopping you 😀

Be a Girl Fashionista with SM Kids’ Fashion

With the holidays just around the corner, now is the perfect time to shop for those cute little misses and misters: our daughters, sons, nephews, nieces and godchildren.

If you know your precious ones have discerning taste, head on over to SM Kids’ Fashion department and see what will perfectly fit your young loves.

Here are some fashion ideas from the 2012 Philippine Fashion Week for SM Kids’ Fashion:

SM Kids' Fashion Crib Couture

Crib Couture for your baby boy and baby girl.

Baby boys look adorable when they’re dressed like little gentlemen. Keep things playful by adding a splash of color to timeless pieces. A bright checkered shirt, for instance, brings a smile to everyone’s faces when worn with a white vest and dark khaki pants. Round everything out with white shoes with a vivid trim, and your little bundle of joy becomes extra-huggable!

There’s nothing cuter than a baby girl all dressed up in pink and ruffles. Make her stand out from the rest by incorporating unexpected prints into her wardrobe. Animal prints paired with hot pink ruffles make her extra-adorable and the center of attention in any event! Add a similarly printed headband or a mini-bandana to make her outfit even more unique.

Hello Kitty:

Hello Kitty has always been a favorite among little girls and the brand has evolved from the usual pink-and-white color pallet. A pair of gold sandals is perfect for a black tiered dress with yellow trimmings, while silver goes well with a white-and-pink ruffled dress.Keep accessories to a minimum so that it doesn’t overwhelm the look and tie the whole outfit together with a playful hairstyle.

Girls Edition:

Mid-pastels are very feminine and add vibrant pops of color to a playful girl’s outfit. Aqua, purple, and yellow, for example, are great combinations as they complement each other. Mix and match outfits from this color pallet and add texture by using ruffled or frilly fabrics. Pair a purple top with aqua leggings or vice versa and complete the look with matching shoes.

Little Miss:

Polka dots are one of the trends that never really go out of style. They’re fun and add an interesting twist into any outfit. Bring out your feminine sidewith these polka-dot dresses from Little Miss. A frilly blue drop-waist skirt is perfect with hot pink ballet flats for a casual party, while simple silver sandals go well with a full skirt dress for more formal events.

Blush:

Blush pieces are chic while remaining girly—perfect for Juniors who want to make a statement with her fashion choices. Add an edgy twist to your metallic top-and-leggings combo or shift dress by pairing them with black lace-up sneakers. Put up your hair in a messy bun or tie it up in a loose ponytail for a laidback yet stylish look.

How come we didn’t have these styles when I was younger?

Thought bubble: “I also wish they have these styles too for plus size cocktail dresses, 😀 “

TipTap Soft Soles Shoes

My kids are no longer babies and for that I heave a sigh of relief as I am free of several responsibilities so Yey! for that. If there are some things though that make me miss those times when they were still babies, that would be about getting cute outfits (lol), trying more organic food offerings, and doing cloth diapering. But I digress because I will stay focus on the cute outfits, specifically the shoes.

When TipTap Soft Soles Shoes launched its 2012 Collection, I couldn’t help but gush, gush and gush some more! The shoes are awesome and how I really wish that my kids were able to have these when they were much, much younger.

Here are some of the TipTap Soft Soles Shoes 2012 Collection I took photos of during the 2012 Collection Launch:
