The Black Lady

This is what I wore at the launching of Freeway x Levi Celerio Collection last June 4. I just realized upon browsing the photos that I looked like a black lady with my black dress, coat, bag and shoes. Thus, the title. 

What do you think? 

Whether you love it or you love it, HYPE it! hahaha.

Eeeer. Love my edit! Love the candid shot too! :)

Thanks Anne for the photos. :)

Love,

My BU3 Loot

Haloooo! Feeling sinisipag to blog tonight since tomorrow's a holiday! Yiiipeee! Expect more tomorrow because I promised that I'll finish all my backlogs tomorrow.

BTW, I just wanna share what's inside my CLEAR Tote last BU3. Thanks to Clear for helping us save our mother earth by giving away tote bags during the event! :)

First, I got these 3 for free, the tote bag from clear (unli?) haha, back issue (March 2012) of Meg Magazine and lastly, a toiletry kit courtesy of ETC! :)

If you were there, you know that it was kinda hard searching for great pieces for friendly prices because everyone seems to be throwing out, throwing in stuffs all around. haha! In my case, I visited some of the booths that I told I am going to visit on my Hype for #BU3 post. I did but they were all crowded and so I decided to save myself from chaos. LOL. So I flocked to these 3 not-too-crowdy and organize (so far) booths and here are what I got:

Photo Diary: Bloggers United 3 ♥---FINALLY!

It was a gloomy day...the dark clouds and foreboding heavy rain seemed to be testing my guts if I will pursue or not.

On our way to BU3- Grandview Events Place

How can I afford to back out when I defied the odds just to attend this event? Yes, that day, June 2 was also my brother's birthday, I told you before that I wasn't really sure of coming because we'll celebrate my dad and brother's birthday (out of town). But THANK GOD! HE gave me a very loving and supportive family. They know how much it means to me. So my brother arranged that we'll attend a mass and then eat dinner instead. Love you Kuyakoy! ♥ Of course I am sharing it with you...SOON. :) 

On the other hand, the weather kinda won, I felt weary and decided to wear a casual outfit instead. I have already imagined a heavy pouring rain messing up with my outfitey as I go out of the taxi. Oh Bell, I hate the hassle. So I came wearing my favorite cream pencil cut skirt and my ROB polo shirt and a Fitflops. As foreseen, it was starting to drizzle as we alight the taxi. Ugh. At the back of my mind, I MADE THE RIGHT DECISION. 

JAM-PACKED Traffic. Epek ng BU3. lol 

Still, I was so excited. :) But to tell you honestly, I kinda felt weak when I saw how many people were there already. :( Just like the traffic, it was JAM-PACKED! Gawsh, next BU, I promise not to be late again and arrive at least an hour before the opening! haha. My fault anyway.

HYPE for #BU3!

YES! Tomorrow is the day of the most awaited bloggers + summer + bazaaar event for a budding blogger like me. This year will be the first time to attend such! I just want to share how "HYPER" I've been today, until now, especially on twitter, because of BU3! haha.

Almost all of the bloggers that I love including my style icons are selling their shoes, bags, clothes and accessories for a much cheaper price!

Since I am on a very very tight budget lately, (you know it's my brother's birthday tomorrow, it's been my dad's birthday this week too...we will be celebrating their birthdays tomorrow as well...saved money for my gifts! Pwede ba kiss na lang? LOL!) Bloggers United 3 is definitely a blessing in disquise to fill in my outfit needs without hurting my wallet too much. And I would love to share you who originally owns the clothes I am wearing for an outfit post. 

My giddiness encouraged me to spy on some participating bloggers and see what they are selling for tomorrow! Most of them tweeted their ensembles for peeking!

Check 'em out here:

Cheyzer Pedregosa of thewalkingrecessionista.com:

Eyeing for those 2 cream-colored ones!

Haven't got any idea of what's her size but I'll make sure to drop her booth...

Patricia Prieto of itspatriciaprieto.com:

This one made me somehow excited! I'm not losing hope to grab some of theirs! 1 inch difference wouldn't put my spirit down! haha.

Lissa Kahayon of lissakahayon.com:

Eyeing this one! NO MORE THAN 700 pesos for pairs of shoes & clothes! I bet this will draw lots of buyers! And am surely one of them!

Vern Enciso of vernenciso.com:

haha. Vern's the most cluttered one.  hehe. We're kind of the same when organizing shoes! haha! I don't think I can have any of these. I believe her shoe size is 9. That's real saaaad.

On the other hand, I bet Laureen Uy & Camille Co are sharing booth for tomorrow, based on their tweets lang hehe. Selling some of their accessories and shoes! 

Laureen Uy of breakmystyle.com & Camille Co of itscamilleco.com:

Kryz Uy of kryzuy.com shares a sneak peek on her facebook page too! Click here to see a bunch!

Again, they are only SOME of my top picks! More than 50 bloggers are participating to this event! Great finds for friendly price! Plus you can have a chance to have a souvenir photo pa from your favorite bloggers! Oh diba? San ka pa? Sa BU3 na!

I've noticed that bloggers will mainly sell their shoes. Something that I love! haha. If you're a shoe addict like me, this is something you shouldn't miss! Anyway, how much is Php100 for admission fee when you could save a thousand and help other people SMILE while you shop your heart out! 

Check out Ana Gonzales' guidelines on how to get to the venue and other details HERE.

Everyone are also being encouraged to bring their own tote/shopping bags to save our Mother Earth! I am supporting this one so don't forget yours! 

Follow @bloggers_united on twitter or hop on their facebook page, Bloggers United: An Interactive Shopping Affair  for more updates and info! BTW, some bloggers are giving away tickets to the BU3 up to the last minute on twitter so watch out! 

Since it's my first time, expect that I'll be taking lots of photos that I can!  Together, let's SHOP 'TIL WE DROP!

See you tomorrow lovely ladies! Hoping to make lots of new friends! ♥

Night night,

Bloggers United Strikes 3!

Bloggers United Strikes Three!

Third time’s the charm for the most anticipated fashion bloggers event in the country!

Bloggers United is staging their third bloggers bazaar this June 2 at the Grandview Events Place to once again gather Manila’s top fashion bloggers in one single venue outside of the World Wide Web. After holding two successful events last year, Bloggers United has easily become one of the most anticipated affairs for both fashion bloggers and readers in the metro.  More than just a bazaar, Bloggers United also partners with charitable groups to use and channel their influence in a positive manner.

Through the overwhelming power of social media and blogs in today's generation, the previous Bloggers United events have successfully joined forces with top fashion bloggers like Laureen Uy, Camille Co, Kryz Uy and many more to inspire their followers and to raise funds for various beneficiaries,  namely KIDS Foundation and GMA Kapuso Foundation. This time around, the event will benefit Operation Smile Philippines.

The event gets better and better every time! To make Bloggers United 3 even more momentous, top Indonesian fashion blogger Anastacia Siantar of The Brown Platform will also be selling alongside Cebu fashion bloggers and our very own top celebrities Divine Lee & Sarah Meier.

So, if you love blog-reading and blog-hopping, Bloggers United is sure to be the perfect end-of-summer bazaar for you. Not only will you be able to bump elbows with your favorite bloggers at the event, but you will also be able to snag some of their own stylish statement pieces as they open their closets to sell to the public. Stay-up-to-date with the biggest gathering of bloggers by following us on Twitter (twitter.com/bloggers_united) and Facebook (facebook.com/bloggersunitedph), and bookmarking our official webpage (bloggersunited.org).

I am crossing my fingers that I will be a able to participate in this event. This event is the most awaited event for a budding blogger like me. Aside from the chance to meet my favorite bloggers, this is also a way of helping other people. It's like hitting 3 birds with one stone actually because I will also be able to grab items here for less (you know how addicted I am with bazaars LOL). BU3 will be the first bloggers event that I am going to attend to so I hope my dear Kuya would make our 'getaway' really really friendly with my schedule. May 28 is my Dad's birthday while my dearest brother's birthday is JUNE 2. What a coincidence right?  T_T They decided to have a joint OUT-OF-TOWN celebration on my kuya's birthday. Waaaah! :(

So yeah, I am hopeless. You know guys that my family is my priority so there's no need to make me choose. YAHAY! :(  I've been preparing for this event and I could go crazy if I won't be able to come for this is only a ONE DAY EVENT that happens ONCE A YEAR. Ang hirap pala when you're torn between someTHING you love and someONE you love. LOL! I hope  my kuya and I could make a good final deal on this. haha! Please do pray for me sweeties! ♥ 

Let's keep in touch! See you IF I could come! Feel free to repost and spread the word! 

Love,

SunDMan
