Stylish, moi?

Thanks to one of the most fashionable mommy-to-be blogger, Lena for awarding me with the...

I'm supposed to share 7 facts about myself, so here goes:

1.  I believe in unicorns.  They DO exist.
2.  99% of the time, I'm running late.  The one day that I was actually on time, was our wedding day.
3.  I'm a firm believer in naps.  It's great for the skin.  Hello, Sleeping Beauty! She was gorgeous.
4.  I always need to eat something sweet after a meal.
5.  I can't finish a cup-o-noodle, but I can eat a whole plate lunch!
6.  I'd give up all the shoes I own for a pair of Louboutins!  Um, wait. this is only half true.  The Loubies would need to fit like a dream!
7.  I haven't been to the gym in almost 3 months. :(

Hope everyone had a great hump day... off to meet the hubby for dinner. Kisses. Hugs. (I like hugs better).  Btw, where has the year gone? I can't believe it's already December. Yeeesh!!

Ruby Love.

Recently I've been tagged with a few more awards... from Dea of the Dea Diaries and Nathalie of Accessory Pirate.  Thank you lovelies!

{from Dea}

{from Nathalie}

I know I've shared 7 facts about me when I recieved my first "Beautiful Blogger" award (from the Owls Closet, but I'd love to share 7 more. :)

1.  I have two soul mates (and yes, you can have two!!) - My hubby and my BFF, Jo.
2.  I can't whistle.
3.  LOVE to cook for my hubby... even though I'm not "great" at it I still love it. Sometimes, I concoct weird dishes.. but he eats it, so that's a good thing. :) Also, while cooking I use many many many bowls, ramekins, and untensils... I like to imagine I'm hosting a cooking show!!
4.  I was born in the Philippines (Cagayan city) and we moved to Hawaii when I was three. I haven't been back since, but hope to visit with my parents and hubby in 2012.  I'm a bit scared and I don't know why.. but I want to make that visit happen.
5.  I have one sister (she's older... and she's beautiful).  Growing up I was the little bratty sister that wanted to follow her around and do everything she did (we're 7 years apart) - pretty much her annoyance. We have the best relationship now.. and I'm very fortunate that we're only a 30 minute plane ride away from eachother.
6.  I sunbathed topless for a whole week.  Our 2005 trip to Tahiti was by far the best trip the hubby and I have taken. I can't wait to go back.
7.  When I get exicted (which is a lot, it doesn't take a lot to amuse me) I emphasize the wrong parts of a sentence when I'm speaking.

I want to pass these awards on to: joaniebeanPinkBowCafe Fashionista, and the Starving Stylist

I've been searching for a ruby ring and found a few beautiful ones online... but I dredge making the purchase because what if it look horrid in person!!  That's the thing with most jewelry pieces, it's something that you should try on (at least 99% of the time)....



This is my fav!! I love how this is a raw ruby.. and the size it amazing!! weeeeeee.


Anyone have any recommendations of any beautiful / unique jewelry sites? I'd love to know.

I'll leave you with this pic... this was taken the other night when we attempted to pay Yogurtland a visit, but was out of luck... As a child I used to love going to the Whalers Village just so I could see the whale skeleton that's at the entrance of the shopping center.  Oooooo and speaking of whales, it's Whale Season in the islands... and I finally got to see my first Humpback whale of the season this past Saturday!!! OMG!! I squealed with delight!!

Wearing: jumper - Jeans Warehouse (I'm not "allowed" to go into this store.. it's basically a shop with "rejects" from F21, Charlotte Russe, and Wetseal.. with a few other unknown labels in the mix, priced even cheaper than the stores they came from.), sweater vest - Old Navy, belt - F21, Potion Boots - Jeffrey Campbell, necklace - Hello Kity, bag - Tahari

Meowy Christmas Eve

Christmas is just a day away and to some in the world, they're already celebrating! Me and Eli are having dinner tonight at my parents. Just the 5 of us; mom, dad, grandma, me & Eli. Oh and Pooma of course.

I wanted to share the Rasta Cuppies I made for our friend Wendy's son's 1st birthday party. I can't believe he's one already.  The year went by really fast!

Rasta Cuppies!!
Me + Wendy (and her hubby, Jaysen in the back). Do we look like sisters? I always get that, but I don't think so. I'm 100% Filipino and she's 100% Japanese. I remember when she was pregnant with her first child, we both went into Starbucks and the barista thought she was my mom! I didn't correct her either and Wendy and I just laughed about it. ;P
Hubby + Me + Birthday Boy ~Kapono~ Isn't he just the cutest!!?!!
The Easleys (Wendy + Jaysen) are such incredible people! They're fantastic friends and amazing parents. They've raised such great kids.

Oooo and I also want to thank Ab from The Owls Closet , she awarded me with the Beautiful Blogger award. Thanks sweet Ab, I feel so special. So now I will need to list 7 random facts about me.

1.  I dream in Black and White (maybe a couple times a year in color). So sad. :(
2.  We live in a two bedroom place and one of those bedrooms are designated just for MY clothes!! and shoes. :)
3.  I didn't get my license (or really drive at all) until I was 20.  My friend acutally told me that he would give me $100 if I got my license before I turned 21, so I guess that was a good incentive. BTW, I never got the $100.
4.  Our wedding theme was Tokidoki inspired.
5.  I'm a big fan of Cookies! All kines. I don't discrimiate.
6.  I had an HUGE girl crush, boderline ObSeSsiOn with Britney Spears. OMG.
7.  Eli and I have been together for 10 years, married for 9 months. :)
I wanted to throw in a #8. I can't whistle!! boo :(

and now, I would like to award the following bloggers:
Tiffany of I am Style-ish
Michelle of Always Overdressed
Lar & Cath of Asian Cajuns

I hope everyone has a Meowy Christmas! :) Don't forget to leave your cookies and milk out for Santa.

Love, S
