This pretty much sums up where my head's at in terms of beauty, hair and dressing for winter: Barely-there makeup paired with effortless undone hair tucked into a cozy turtleneck. Complete the look with a sleek coat, simple manicure (digging the french manicure in the first shot) and can't forget to accent those cheekbones!

Details on how to get your hair looking this perfectly undone can be found here.

According to Ms. Tengco "Abs are made in the kitchen". It doesn't matter how many crunches you do, you won't get those dream abs without following a correct diet plan".

It is imperative that we are careful about the food we ingest and she made sure that all her recipes are healthy and fit to shed those extra pounds especially around the belly.

Century Tuna already contains Omega 3 which helps burn body fat, shrink abdominal fat cells and stop genes that trigger inflammation on belly fat, in addition to promoting a healthy heart.

Lucky for us, Century Tuna has made John Lloyd's 6 week meal and workout plan available to the public on their website: http://www.centurytuna.ph/superbodschallenge.

The recipes and exercise are super easy to follow making it all the more inspiring to try and work at that dream body in time for "La Boracay"!

pandora essence collection

Thursday, February 27, 2014

There are so many available choices these days when it comes to accessories and bracelets that it needs to be extra special to have a permanent place on your arm (and in your heart) everyday.

That is what Pandora's new Essence Collection is all about.

pandora philippines
The recently launched collection features a slender sterling silver bracelet with an accompanying assortment of 24 delicate hand-finished charms that represent a personal value: passion, freedom, health, peace, hope, happiness, compassion, trust, confidence, faith, stability, energy, love, courage, positivity, balance, wisdom, wellness, respect, joy, prosperity, loyalty, honesty and strength.

pandora essence collection
Pandora Essence is all about inspiring women to express their true selves through symbolic charms that emphasize inner values, hopes and desires in life. It is this form of self-expression through jewelry that is both pretty and also a daily reminder for me to be the best person I can be  that made me fall in love with the collection immediately.

pandora essence launch philippines
To celebrate the launch held at Makati Shangri-la, Pandora Philippines chose 4 inspiring women who inspire and embody the "Essence Traits".

pandora philippines
Amina Aranaz-Alunan on Prosperity: "Prosperity is having a dream, a goal, a vision, and being joyful while working to achieve it."

Atty. Karen Jimeno-McBride for Wisdom: "Wisdom is acknowledging that you don't know everything. It means you are always open to learning and continually growing".

pandora essence charms
Kim Jones on Love - "It is eternal. It is a universal language, nurtures us and allows us to grow by doing things that we are passionate about."

Lisa Macuja-Elizalde on Passion: "Passion is dance, it's my commitment and my intense love for classical ballet which is the strictest form of dance."

pandora essence charm
pandora essence bracelet
These core values are what drives these women to reach their goals and excel in their perspective fields, it is what makes us look up to them and admire them for their accomplishments.

pandora essence launch
Their stories are humbling and inspiring but it's also nice to know that no matter how big or successful they are, they are also very much human in the sense that they still need to be reminded everyday to keep working at improving themselves just like the rest of us...AND that's why we all need a Pandora Essence Bracelet in our lives! :D

Check out Pandora and the new Essence Collection at these Pandora Boutique locations: Greenbelt 5, Glorietta 4, Bonifacio High Street Central, Newport Mall, Shangri-la Mall East Wing, The Podium, Elemento in Aura Mall, Megamall Expansion and Century City Mall.

ootd: romwe kimono

With summer fast approaching, I am finding myself gravitating more and more towards kimonos. When it comes to outerwear, they are probably the best suited style for our climate.

Breezy enough to wear on a sunny day and warm enough to shield us from the cool tropical winds.

There are many many different patterns to choose from but my favorites would have to be those that are traditionally inspired like this one I got from Romwe. I find them much more interesting and I love the exotic/world traveler feel they lend an outfit plus silk and satin is just heavenly against the skin! 

Wore this to a food tasting event at Watami (see post here) and coffee with Ana a few days ago. It was the day after 7107 (see post here) and I was still feeling a bit exhausted from the weekend so I wanted something relaxed and comfortable.

watami japanese casual restaurant review (shangrila)

 My favorite place to eat lately has been the East Wing of Shangrila Mall. The choice of cuisine available in their new wing is so diverse and 99% of all the places I've tried there are delicious.

Another one to add to my list is Watami.

Watami is an internationally known Japanese Casual Restaurant with over 700 stores in Asia and currently #1 in Japan.

Their menu boasts an assortment of dishes which range from the usual sushi and sashimi to the more creative and unusual like Clams Cooked in Stone Pot with Japanese-style sauce along with bestselling old favorites like Crispy Chicken Wings, Chasu Rice in Stone Pot, Pepper Beef Rice in Stone Pot, Gyoza On A Hot Pan, Self-grilled Short Ribs and Watami Salad.

watami shangrila
During my visit, I was able to try their Beef Hot Rice with Hot Spring Egg in Tokyo Style Set which comes with cold tea, miso soup and a side salad for only P295.

The portion was very generous. Taste is similar to Gyudon but the tang of the finely chopped pickled radish gives a refreshing twist to the otherwise sweet dish. The sesame seeds also lend it a nice earthy flavor which is great for taking away the umay factor.

watami shangrila menu
During my visit, I was also able to try a couple of other dishes that they cook right at your table: Sukiyaki and their Self-grilled Short Ribs (P295):

watami shangrila review
watami philippines
Just like the other dishes, their Sukiyaki was served in a big pot, good for 2 big eaters or 3 light eaters. It was delicious and very fresh. Veggies weren't wilted and it also had delicate silken tofu:

watami shangrila review
For P295, their Self-grilled Short Ribs is a win. The beef used isn't melt in your mouth tender but good enough for the price. The sauce that comes with it is divine, make sure you ask for extra.

watami philippines
Average price per plate at Watami Japanese Casual Restaurant is around P250. Not bad considering you're getting fresh, tasty and authentic Japanese food. 

Watami is located at the 6th level of Shangri-la's East Wing, SM Mall of Asia and the new Glorietta
