{ Black & White Outfit.. an all-time favorite look }


To celebrate my birthday, Hubby and I ate at the Eiffel Tower Restaurant located in Paris Hotel and Casino, Las Vegas. It was a bit expensive but the view was spectacular. We sat facing the fountains at the Bellagio. You know those moments that literally take your breath away? Well this was one of those for me. ^_^ Great company, great view, delicious food, can’t complain.

For that especial day, I was wearing the top I bought from Canada (when we were there in July). Printed skirt from Forever21, black wedge by Charles David (which, by the way, the most comfortable wedges I’ve ever worn so far!), and to finish the whole look, I added some accessories.

{ Birthday Trip: Los Angeles & Las Vegas }


Hello Bloggers! It’s been too long since I updated my blog. Hope everyone are doing well and enjoyed the month of August. Time is surely flying by fast and now we are in September.. which means the cold weather is approaching fast! I don’t know about you Bloggers but I’m so not ready for summer to end yet.

Anyway, September is my month. Not only it’s my birthday month but also our wedding anniversary month. Hubby and I got married the same month too! ^_^

{ 4th of July in Canada }


Hello Bloggers!


It’s been too long since the last time I posted something here.. been busy with stuff. :) I hope you all are doing well and enjoyed your 4th of July. Hubby and I spent the Independence Day at our neighbor's to the North. This was both our first time visiting Niagara Falls. Took us roughly eight hours to get there from home. Although the drive was pretty long, we definitely had a great time driving state to state. We’re both travelers and don’t mind long trips/drive like this one. :)

{ Boracay, Philippines } >> looking back..

Boracay.. Boracay.. Boracay! This place is one of the best places I’ve ever been to in the Philippines. I may be born and raised there but this was my very first time visiting this gorgeous Island. If it weren’t for my husband, I would not have probably visited this place. Hahaha! We went there for our honeymoon and I couldn't think of any better place in the Philippines to spend our first trip together as a newlywed. :)

This is the hotel where we stayed for one whole week :)

{ I ♥ Amsterdam }

Before I begin this post, let me first start by saying Yay, to my first May post! Hahaha! I just can’t believe it’s already May and finally feeling that warmer weather. :) And warmer weather for me means Summer!!! (big smiley face here) :D

Anyway, back to my new travel-post >>

The first time hubby told me that we’re going to Amsterdam, I was very excited. We did the whole Euro Trip experience which includes riding a sleeper-train, bullet train, and stopping at different train stations along Europe. For me when you say “Amsterdam” the first thing that comes in mind is their “marijuana” policy. Hahah! Don’t judge, I’ve always heard about this and I’m pretty sure so as the other many people around the globe. Lol! :) However, that’s not what made me super excited about going to this well-known city but rather its unique buildings and structures.

{ Road Trip: Destination >> Ogunquit, MAINE }

It’s that time of year again when hubby and I visits Ogunquit, ME. We love going there during this Spring time because it’s neither too cold nor hot. The view of the ocean is very peaceful to look at, it makes you feel relaxed. Although it’s not quite the time to get lobster because it’s not lobster season yet, it was still nice to go up there and enjoy the view. Since we moved to New England, Maine has always been our mini road trip destination every now and then. We never get tired of seeing the same view every year, it’s that beautiful. :)

{ The beautiful beach in Mozambique }

Being in South Africa is definitely one of the interesting and unforgettable memories that I will treasure forever. When hubby and I were there, we tried to visit places like Mozambique if possible. After all, it’s not all the time we get a chance to visit this side of the globe. It was May so the weather was pretty hot. Going to the beach with friends for three days and two nights was perfect. The road trip from where we used to live (Pretoria) to Mozambique was about nine hours’ drive. Before entering Mozambique, we stopped at the border line to get tourist visa. It probably took about one hour to get our entire passports stamp one by one. There were nine of us. Fortunately, we didn’t encounter any major problems during the process. :)

{ Bring out those Spring Colors }

This was my first time visiting the King’s hometown. The weather was perfect so I decided to wear this beautiful, very colorful skirt that my sister gave me. All night I was thinking what to pair it with, so the next morning I tried different tops that I could think off that will go well with this skirt. Finally, I decided to go with a plain white top. I figured I can never go wrong with a white top, and tadahhhh.. it was perfect. :)

{ Bring on Spring }

Ahhhh.. it’s that time of year again. Finally! I’ve been waiting for spring this year and it feels like forever, but now it’s finally here.  The smell of trees in the air blossoming back to their normal look, seeing the different colors of flowers and the changes of scenery in general makes me really excited for warmer weather.  Nonetheless, the anticipation of waiting is almost over. 

These photos were taken at Yankee Candle Village in South Deerfield, MA. The flowers and their colors are just beyond beautiful.  If this is the scenery you get while eating lunch, then you can’t really complain much. :)

{ ...and then there's Cape Town }

Cape Town, South Africa is one of the world's best cities and seven days in this place was not enough. This City has so much to offer that in seven days we couldn't get to see it all. We went to one of the vineyard that’s in the area and did a tour inside the whole property (can’t remember the exact name of the place). Part of the tour was showing us where they make and store the wine.  The storage area was huge and cold, it was crazy seeing big wood barrels on top of one another, labeled and dated. Lastly, the best part of the tour (for me of course) was the wine and cheese tasting. 

Me posing for the camera and exploring :)
Except for the top, my whole outfit here is from South Africa, including the purse. Top is from Macy's :)

{ When in Rome }

Finally, I can now check Rome off my bucket list! This Eternal City was by far the most amazing place I have ever been to. The architectures and Roman arts are without doubt one of a kind, no wonder this place gets millions of tourists every year from around the world.

I've never seen a place like this before and that's because I never even thought for a second I would get the chance to visit Italy.

{ Subic Bay, Philippines }


Wearing a Victoria's Secret beach dress in pink.

Had a great summer last year since I was able to go back home (Philippines) where I get to see and hang out with my family and friends again after four long years. Also had the privileged of visiting one of the well known tourist spot in Olongapo City, a town called Subic. The water temperature was perfect, mini shops along sides of the beach where you can buy souvenirs, and "Bangka" (small boat(s)) ready to give you tour from one end side of the beach to the other.
