eve of Hallow's eve

Thanks for using my links and supporting this blog. I may make a few cents when you use my links... but it's at NO extra cost to you. 















black and pops of red
still my fave way to spice up an outfit
these wedges are soooo, soooo comfy. 
They give me height and I can wear them ALL DAY in clinic.











meet the face bag... again.
She is losing her structure as the leather softens. 
I got her pre-loved.
I do not use her as much as I want to because she is HEAVY. 
She's all leather with suede interior.










Happy Friday! Yay!
What are your plans for this weekend? Do you celebrate halloween? or are you more of a dress-up as saints on All Saints Day?

Nov 1st is big in the Philippines. If it lands on a schoolday, classes are cancelled. It's a holiday. People pay respects and go to the cemeteries and pray and light candles for their deceased loved ones. The Philippines has ~ 85% Catholics. Hence celebrating this feastday. 

My children are brought up here in the US. They know all about halloween and boo-nights and trick-or-treating. I am not oppose to them experience those things. But I am having a hard time teaching them about the Filipino culture -- specially the way some holidays and feasts are celebrated differently back *home vs here in the US. We read books. I let them know bits and pieces here and there... but i feel like it's not enough. 

If you have any tips, let me know. 

My children are dressing up as a Ninja, Princess Ella, Spiderman and St. Lucy... Happy to have found eyeballs at Target... 


I hope you have a great Friday and great weekend.
don't forget to turn back your clock before you go to bed on Saturday night. it's FALL BACK, y'all!

rose gold + blue jeans + plan for today











Blush + denim ~ Quite possibly the cutest pairing. Something so feminine and something so basic.
I love how this outfit turned out.


Because I tend to overshare, let me lay out what we have planned for today.

-- I need to put away and freeze the big bag of superfood (aka Kale) bought from Costco

-- It's time for Lucy's 4 month old photo sesh. I know you miss her here.

-- Lucy also has a WCC. I wonder how heavy and long she is now.

-- I am SUPER excited for Ms. Ballerina. She tried a 30-minute pre-primary class last week and LOVED it. So we went and bought leotard, tights and ballet shoes. She is all set for her first official class today!
















Look at this cutie....
Look at that cute smoochie face. 
I hope he does not EVER get tired of me kissing his sweet face.

Spot that pink snap watch he is wearing. It does not work. The battery is dead. But this boy loves to wear it everywhere. He cannot tell time but he wears it. 

BTW, my quiet, serious Sebastian now can count up to 13 (sometimes 14) on his own. He uses his words more and more. whew.. I thought I will have to send him for speech therapy eval or something. Is the "third child syndrome" really true? They did not teach us or show us "evidence-based anything" about baby #3 and speech delay in medical school. But it was true for bastian and some of my friends' #3 babies.

if you find a journal article published somewhere, please share!

easy breezy






High-Low Dress via Hautelook










Finally posting the anniv dress i wore for our anniv date night.
I bought this thinking it will be for Lucy's baptism... but decided against it and wore this instead.

high low can be hit or miss for me. This one is a homerun... It ended up looking blog-worthy with the clutch and the bangles.


Here are some high low options less than $50!
The Vince Camuto one is on sale with limited sizes and less than $80! deal for a Vince Camuto....











Dinner was delish. The filet was mouth watering! two thumbs up!
We split a bottle of wine -- but did not finish it.

It felt like I had my iron stores for the week/month with all that red meat.

another OOTD post but with a fancier camera

























I don't have a lot of opportunities to have my OOTD posts captured by a professional photographer. No offense, hubs.. your skills are getting better. 

it's just that there is something about NICER cameras and people with talent.
meet my sister.


What purses are to me... what cameras and lenses are to her.
except the purses are just for me... whereas other people benefit with her camera... (her words!) so true, indeed.

what an anniversary






I have been pretty spoiled. We have ALWAYS gone out on our anniv night whether it's a Monday or Tuesday or any other day even after having babies. We have awesome parents who can babysit while we go out even though it's only for a quick dinner out by ourselves.


This year was different. We knew with soccer games and work that we won't be able to do that anymore. 

anyway.. I wore this pink outfit on our anniv day. I got home pretty late from work. I was not planning that. I was not able to say goodbye to my sis and her fam before they headed home.... I wore the necklace she got me because I thought I will see her.....

























Hubs still surprised me with two dozen pink roses. That man still spoils me and I am very thankful for him. 

He is amazing.
He is my OOTD photographer.
He is my  best friend and workout partner.
He is the best dad for my 4 littles.

I won't be able to be a wife, mom and MD without him. :) He gets me in line and makes sure I am on my way to heaven and nowhere else.
