tom ford: site

[quick-info]-Tom Ford gained his fashion fame thru his works in the house of Gucci. 

These are not new styles, but I find these designs to stick around...

It's one of those things that never runs out of style like your favorite bra or something.

i've been eyeing on those ray bans for sometime now, i might just get one.

For the love of scent: Part II

As I was doing my daily reads on one my fave blogs to read (chuvaness...) I was intrigued by who is Frederic Malle well he just happened to be a perfume expert that seems to know what the real deal is when it comes to scent. After watching a short clip on youtube, he made me realize the cheap scents that's out on the market are somewhat like pirated scent...is there such a thing? what he meant are those celebrity endorsers who's selling fragrances for the moola.! gosh darn it...what i wear now are: Mademoiselle, Daisy, True Religion, Hanae Mori, Jo Malone...and some Paris & Juicy Couture for a room spray.

One scent that i find very unique is my Jo Malone, I just love how it stays on my skin for hours and it's very refreshing. 

-Oh by the way, we all know that perfume bottles need to be place in cooler temperature, but one great idea i got from Frederic Malle is to store them in a fridge (remember it's like a bottle of wine). It helps maintain the natural smell of the perfume...I shall try it! pronto!!!

i love how he seemed to be annoyed about the whole celebrity issue...you could tell that he's so passionate about his works!

i wanna smell his creations...to Barney's I go!

Movie Lap Mode

Two nights in a row...I've been in movie lap mode.

 [definition: free movie played on my laptop].

I've never gone to the movies alone, but have dine by myself...tell me is there a difference?

Anyway, here's what I was viewing last night: Table For Three

Superman?!

Then tonight it was Killer Hair:

those red shoes are killer!

I found this site during my time in the hospitality business...

during those winter season when the lobbies were so freakin silent,

I found a site that definitely killed an hour or two.

credits to the free movies! (below is the link) select the ones that has higher percentage..(HQ)

i just realized that this might give a bad impression to future employers...argghh!

Tatata-tanned!

I was like..."damn I'm tanned" pictures don't lie and these photos that was taken last Saturday took me by surprise. 

L.A tan has a week after effect...seriously!

went to  ROE after crossed the street to XYZ

Forever21 dress & cocktail ring, Steve Madden strappy heels

Bon Appetit

So my good friend Candice got free tickets to watch Julie & Julia at the Metreon for a special premiere, the movie which will be hitting the theaters August 7, 2009.  

It's a wednesday, hump day that is...had no plans so why not it's free.

It's a two true stories of Julia Child who's an American chef that introduced the French cuisine to the "servantless Americans". lol! thought that was a funny script from the movie. And Julie Powell who's an American author that worked in the Lower Manhattan in a Development Corp. 

By the way Julie Powell was discovered through her blog JULIEPOWELL

It was an interesting movie~ two hours long.

Don't remember JULIA CHILD? watch this

Better yet, this one!

I'm now a fan! I'm inspired to cook...

Joe

Believe it or not...he bugs me, pisses me off, annoys me & the list goes on...he even bugs me about how I don't include him in my blog! 

We definitely have our Ups & Downs

but were inseparable! lol

hahaha!

SPOTTED...the roq in LA

Hey fellow bloggers! m.roq here...took a quick trip to SoCal for the holiday and it wasn't so bad driving down south. It's been a while since I did a road trip, it's definitely one of those unforgettable experience...better yet road trips are the one that you can recall later on and discuss things with your (road-trippers) about something really funny, random, weird, crazy (acts) memories in the making!

Spotted, Mr. M & Mr. S in Rodeo Drive...what can I say, these fellas are getting in touch with their fashion senses.

Are they starting a new trend? they both actually can pull this look...Yay! for blonde spikes

PRADA SHADES, GSHOCK WATCHES, BEN SHERMAN SHIRT, STUSSY SHIRT (below) V-NECKS-H&M

Relaxed fashion mode was my goal! I came here to reLAX.

It was the guys turn to put out their fashion statement and I once again came to reLAX.

XoXo...

I'm a big girl now!

It's exactly five months since I saw my god daughter...she's all grown up. Me and my good friend Candice set up a breakfast date at Andersen Bakery a few days ago, i remember those days when we used to have lunch dates when she was still bearing her baby girl. Now she's part of our breakfast/brunch/lunch dates.

Meet Kalleah! 

she's One year old.

She's so witty...here she plays and aims a paper ball to be thrown at her mommy's face!

Her laughter is a killer, its full of joy & seriously loud!

later on that day...Kalleah went on a shopping spree at ZARA lucky her!

South of Market

South of Market has changed for the better and for those who have witnessed these changes, such as moi who basically lived half my life in this oh so called modernized/trendy district is now the IT place to chill and hang out. I'm glad there's a place where people can enjoy the great outdoors and at the same time find a hole in the wall places for cheap bites.

Went to B bar to meet up with the ladies who I have not seen in a while. Had a few drinks and bar appetizers, too bad we missed happy hour. I love the glass wall that surrounded the bar, which then gives you an amazing view of the Yerba Buena Gardens and the city lights, so chic! Reasonable price for cocktail drinks + variety of cheese and a glass of ceviche with potato chips were really good.

We then head out to Rosewood cool spot in telegraph hill.

Another place I visited this weekend is the The Butler & The Chef

again a cute little bistro hidden in the circle of South Park. I went here for brunch with the bf, always passed by this

cute yellow bistro, but never had the chance to dine, so finally the warm weather brought us to this place.

Ham & Salmon eggs benedict! Soo Good!

Happy Father's Day

Pa, 

Happy Father's Day!

Love: mae

Revisited

Revisited the square...and for some weird reason had the guts to even enter the Goyard, Me and Joe just wanted to check it out...well actually I dragged him to go in, not that I have plans on purchasing one but maybe a hint/clue to the purchaser. LOL! I'm bad...very bad!-stop it. 

After revisiting, I was able to bring back and restore the beauty of SF in my memory, it's such a chill place, less people and tall huge buildings~it's quite hilly though! However, beware of the unpleasant smell of the sidewalks it totally ruins everything...I mean while sipping on some fruity drink and the smell of urine comes creeping in...disasterrr!

Tourista!

I've never tagged my outfits before, so here you go!

Cherry Cherry Boom Boom

So it's thursday, my mom told me last night that I need to wake up early to do some cherry picking...hmm..sounds fun! From what I remember not long ago, I could hardly squeeze any last minute plans due to work & school and now with so much free time, I was like "sure". It feels good to say "yes" to last minute plans-its' so exciting, but at the same time...am so bummed being low in the moola. But then again in a good note, nothing beats good company and the adventure that follows ;)

So this morning we headed out to Rockville, Suisun City Ca. We visited the

  99 Cherry Orchard the entrance fee only cost $3.50 plus $1.50 a pound for the cherries, which is not a bad deal it's actually an awesome deal. Best part is it's only 45 minute drive from the bay. 

The weather was really nice, it was 90 degrees! goodness...after a while a slight headache rushed ;(

Oh by the way, that cute lil' hand is Isaiah...you're not seeing things ;)

Wow! this box cost us $9.00 "what a deal-what-a- taaw-sata-tay-wow..wow"

Jennifer Behr

Fond of Headbands...

I must say, I always have something to put on my head, it could be my hats, bonnets, clips or a headband. It's like my  "cherry on top" which completes ones wardrobe.

I find the works ofJennifer Behr to be the cherry on top for an absolute darling outfit.

Here are some of her collections:

And here's who made her pieces so popular Miss Blair Waldorf

I LOVE IT!

Party Of Four

My 100th Post! 

I've been M.I.A with these ladies and so last night I finally caught up with a bunch of such...We then head out to XYZ an adjacent fine dining of the W on third street. Dine About is still going on and so we took advantage of dining in to this swanky resto. 

How funny that we all mentioned how we don't have Black & White nor Sepia pictures when we were young...and so I'm remaking this colored photo of us. Background was kinda cheesy, more like a studio pics for school. Let this be our "Gossip Academy"

My jet-setter friend who's always on the go...always a fun night. 

Our conversations are never boring...

Fashion Ave

Last night I was watching the movie Devil Wears Prada and during the scene where Andy had to run off and get skirts from Calvin Klein they did a quick glance on Seventh Ave and Fashion Ave...

Aaaahhh! just remembering the time I have taken a quick shot on that street makes me really miss NY. gosh golly !

I had to blurrr my face out, for I was a mess early in the morning, but hey I was wearing my Prada glasses...ain't that a coincidence..."that's all"

like a Virgin

I just need to do a quick post about this airline...they're AWESOME!

Ever since my bro was braggin' about how his flight with Virgin America was super cool! he's been a frequent flyer for the airline. So, I finally witnessed what he's been braggin' about when I flew in to NYC and I couldn't agree more, he's right they're cool, well the plane itself is very comfy with the leather seats and personal T.V. my fave ;) and it has a remote control too and it also serves as a controller for the video games. Another cool feature is that you can chat with people who might not be on the same aisle with you thru the T.V. for free! There's also a WIFI in the plane, but there's a fee of $12.95, but with so much features on your t.v. screen and with such a short flight, I didn't mind not having WIFI.

The lighting made me feel as if I was in a lounge...Up in the air Lounge!

FYI: the lighting changes from day time to night time..coolio ;)

Another thing...you can swipe your credit card underneath the t.v. screen to make orders or shop e.g. snack, drinks (they have a good variety of drinks from teas, coffee, wine & hard liquor etc)...and they deliver asap style!

3.1

It's so funny that when I first saw this sign outside of the streets in Soho, I thought It says Philippines, at that time I had to look hard to see if I was really reading it right...sorry my glasses were not present at that time. 

I just recently found out what it says, well hello *ding-dong* hehehe it's a designer's name Philip Lim. The funny thing is that I have been loving his designs for quite some time now and not realizing that when I stood outside of his store in New York that it was one of his shops...I didn't really know that those clothes I have been admiring were designed by him, never paid a visit to his site nor ever looked at what his logo was...sad! ;(

As a matter of fact, when I was deciding what I should wear for my 25th birthday, I really fell in love with the dress that Lauren Conrad wore for The Hills season four finale. So then my goal was to find something similar and of course sequined out! Again, what she wore that night was a dress from Philip Lim...gorgeous!

My version is from Arden B.

Here's some of his works that I find so amazingly beautiful and so stylish!

JFK to the BAY

why? aaAarghh!
