My Top Picks-Best Dressed

It's Oscar's time once again. i found it a little less exciting-uh uh! As much as i adore James Franco & Anne Hathaway, hinahanap hanap ko pa din ang comic timing ni Billy Crystal as host. The tandem of Steve Martin & Billy Crystal was one of the best when they hosted Oscars a few years back. But kudos to the two (JF & AH) for accepting this challenge. hosting this big event is no joke. The winners are also predictable. from Natalie Portman, Colin Firth, The King's Speech, Toy Story 3. Happy na lang din ako when Inception won in Best Visual Effects, YAY for that! :)

Even the Red Carpet as a lot would say is a little bit boring. Anyhoo, here are my top picks among the rest:

Mila Kunis in Elie Saab

Mandy Moore in Monique Lhuillier - Pinoy Pride!


Hailee Steinfeld in Marchesa

Cate Blanchett in Givency - so vintage looking!

Gwyneth Paltrow in Calvin Klein

Helen Miren 

Camila Alves aka Mrs. McConaughey in Kaufman Franco- my favorite!

Will post my top picks in Worst Dressed later. Who's your favorite Red Carpet look?

Valentine's Day 2

As I've said before, i spent Valentine's day for two days. Feb 13 (see previous post HERE) & Feb 14. I spent Feb 14 with my hubby and princess and met up with our friends after.

We were supposed to dine at Banapple, but we know the traffic will be bad , so we opted for Trinoma again since it's near our place. We tried Sumo Sam. I'm glad we did. It was delish! love the ambiance and the service was good. It was good timing though because we had dinner at 5pm. not so many people dining yet.




Chicken Teriyaki Rice. Super delish! Love, love the salad! 

Chicken Tempura with Fries

Then we had our dessert at Gelatissimo, an Italian Gelato. I must say we had thrown our diet out the window, haha! The Gelato was superb! I had Nocciola(hazelnut) and hubby ordered dark chocolate(i forgot the name). We were so happy to learn that they are 100% fat free and premium dairy between 90-97% fat free. Thank goodness for that! haha! :D

Ebi Tempura & Yakimeshi rice

Chicken Ju


Bento Box
