Flowers for Mom

I was talking to a friend in the states and she’s been thinking of sending her mom a surprise on her birthday two weeks from now.  Since she is too far away from home, it would be impossible for her to actually buy a gift and send it by freight.

I suggested Island Rose, a florist in the Philippines, to do the job for her. Not only do they deliver high quality long stemmed roses, they actually have the best variety of flowers and arrangements that I’m sure mom will love. The best part is, roses will arrive at mom’s doorstep in bud stage so when she takes it out of the box, she can enjoy the flowers as they bloom. Very ingenious indeed!

Island Rose is the only reliable Philippine Flower Delivery Service that delivers roses of the highest quality, that will not put you to shame. Indeed, it is a gift every girlfriend or mom would like to receive on special occassions. So what are you waiting for, point your browsers to Island Rose now!

New Sunglasses for Me

Aside from my addiction to shoes and bags (like any girl out there!), I am a big sunglasses monster. I’m particularly biased to Oakleys because they frame my face pretty well. Recently, while window shopping at Greenbelt 4 and 5, I got to try on designer sunglasses that got me really interested in getting myself a new one.

I searched online for a variety of styles and have narrowed down my search to 10 out of 20 styles, oakleys included. I’m thinking, I will probably get another brand. Since I already have Oakleys and D&Gs, I’ll probably settle for a pair of Nine West Sunglasses. I’m thinking among the ones I’ve chosen, the Nine West line really makes the cut.

I’m particularly interested in the huge chunky ones that go with the huge bags. I recently got myself a new bronze bag that I’m dying to find a pair for.  Another criteria I have for choosing the perfect sunglasses is the type of lens – I easily get dizzy with the unpolarized ones, without the UV filters so this is a big no-no for me. I also go for the cooler tint of brown or gray, more that the dark tinted ones. I am nearsighted and couldn’t see well in the dark, so I light tint helps to make sure I can still see the road when driving with my sunglasses on.  When shopping for clothes and accessories, I particularly go for the clean, minimalist designs that look elegant – from bags, to shoes down to the sunglasses, with the Reiko Aoki’s and Dooney and Bourke bags as an exception.

Continuing my search, I also found really nice Kate Spade Sunglasses. Now I’m so torn between the two. The Kate Spades are a little bit more pricey than the Nine Wests, however, the designs are classic and really lasts a long time.

So I’m thinking… should I go for the KS or the NWs? Which one should I get? Will you help me choose?

A Gift for my nephew

My nephew is celebrating his birthday on Saturday. Although the kids are very far from me, I make it a point to get in touch with them over the phone and send them presents on special occasions. For weeks now, I have been contemplating on a nice gift for him – a basketball, a pair of rubbershoes, or a nice Nascar Apparel perhaps?

He is a big sports fan, from basketball, car racing, tennis, name it! He’s also pretty much into gaming, just like any growing kid. He loves his PS2 more than anything, and is also now hooked on network gaming! I’m thinking of getting him one of those Carl Edwards Merchandise like a new handheld game or maybe a steering wheel he could hook up to his PC to play Nascar racing!

I remember back when I was a kid, I always wanted to have a tent. I saw a pretty nice Tony Stewart Merchandise that looks pretty neat for the great outdoors! I hope he would like one of these. I guess I better make up my mind soon!
