Accessorize Thanksgiving Sale: All About Bags!

Last Sunday, the lovely girls from Accessorize Philippines in cooperation with (what a silly and formal thing to say) the girls from Bloggers United (Melai and Ana) launched Accessorize’s annual thanksgiving bag sale. I usually spend my weekends burrowed in my couch, catching up on my TV shows but it was a four-day weekend and I thought taking a break from swooning over Peter Bishop would do me some good.

Totally swipped this photo from the Accessorize page.

Persia Grill (Sky Garden, SM North EDSA) was hoppin’~* with pretty ladies that afternoon. Throw a bunch of female bloggers together and you basically get an endless loop of people snapping one photo after the other. It’s really cute and pretty amusing seeing the curious stares we were attracting from people walking past the restaurant. One dude actually got his phone out and snapped his own photo of us.

80%20 Adair Hidden Wedge Hiking Boot

I first blogged about 80%20′s Adair hiking boots last January after falling in love with my friend, Klassy’s, pair. I loved it so much that less than a week later, I had ordered my own pair from Karmaloop. To save on shipping, though, I had to wait for someone to arrive from the US to deliver my package.

Welp, I finally got them last Monday!

Sunday at the Bloggers’ Closet Sale

Last Sunday was good for the following reasons:

1) I wasn’t nursing a hangover.
2) I wasn’t stuck at home, nursing a hangover.
3) I didn’t have to stay at home, reading and writing about the lipozene scam.
4) I was out with friends but not working ourselves towards a hangover.
5) I was out with friends thrift shopping at the Bloggers’ Closet Sale (a garage sale organized by ten fashion bloggers).

Human Heart Nature Haul

Human Heart Nature has quickly become of one my favorite brands ever since I started using their products last year. I love the fact that they are cruelty-free and organic and that their philosophy is Pro-Philippines, Pro-Poor, and Pro-Environment. Not an ounce of guilt whenever I spend my money on their online store!

Here’s my latest batch of purchases!

L-R: Aloe Vera, Egg White, and Mandarin shampoo and body wash; Citrus Burst spray sanitizer (a good alternative to Lysol or any disinfectant. I learned last month that Lysol tests on animals!); Balancing Face Toner and Balancing Facial Wash (replacements for the Tomato & Lemongrass facial wash and toner, which were two of my favorites); Sunflower Oil and Papaya day moisturizer.

Presents For Myself

While a handful of my friends were busy doing last-minute Christmas shopping yesterday, I was the greedy little kitty buying myself presents. My folks don’t really celebrate Christmas so I’m pretty lucky in the spending department during the holidays. I still got my mom something, of course, and will have to get my dad a gift once the malls aren’t so packed and stressful. Being a cheap ass, I didn’t spend much (no iphone 4 for this girl!).

A silk house robe, Lauren Conrad’s Style (I’ve been a fan of Lauren Conrad since Laguna Beach and I just love her style and how she doesn’t take crap from anyone!), two Ambeth Ocampo books, and a kitty headband (some random guy went “Meow!” at me while I was waiting for a cab along Emerald Avenue last night).

What did you get yourself for Christmas?
