Hey, hey, hey! Theredlippie is featured as one of CurvyGal's fave blogs:).



Curvy Gal Philippines, is the newest site for the latest news on the Philippine plus-size scene. They believe that it is vital to give importance to the growing and ever-changing needs of the plus size community in our country. What’s good and trendy for the petite Filipina may not work for “curvy gals”. Therefore, it is important to create a solid venue where we can all find the best options and opportunities for us to express our style and creativity through our lifestyle.

Rossanna Pena shoes I got on sale!

I just looooove, looooove gold shoes! I have a number of them, lol. I know--- super Vegas(y) hahaha! But WTH! This one was on sale but could not remember how much I paid for it... But I swear not over Php 500.00 from Cinderella in Glorietta.

Hey Shopaholics! My personal favorite shoe, SCHU is on SALE!

Author's Note: I had my heart broken after P2 won the finals (sob!). But then, we should give it to the man-- I mean he probably has worked  hard to be where he is right now. I am sure Phillip deserves the title equally as Jessica, but America has spoken and we should respect that.

Head out to the upcoming Crocs Sale!!!

Impromptu. Suddenly or hastily prepared. Nobody likes it.

But I do! My friends do!

And here are more reasons why:

My travel spotting dreams take me to Moscow from Beijing when I close my eyes. Look, I have been to Beijing many times... like many times (I have not stopped visiting the city since 2008). But I am always curious what's out there in the longest railway in the world, the Trans-Siberian Railway.

“In a twist to the fairy tale, the Huntsman ordered to take Snow White into the woods to be killed winds up becoming her protector and mentor in a quest to vanquish the Evil Queen.” – IMDB

“Kristen Stewart (the Twilight saga, On the Road) plays the only person in the land fairer than the evil Queen Ravenna (Oscar winner Charlize Theron of Prometheus, Hancock) who is out to destroy her. But what the wicked ruler never imagines was that the young woman who has escaped her clutches and now threatens her reign has been training in the art of war with a Huntsman named Eric (Chris Hemsworth of Thor, The Avengers) who was dispatched to capture her.” – Snow White and the Huntsman Official Website

Author's Note: The following is a repost from my former boss, MO Nadya on how to vote for our very own Jessica Sanchez on American Idol.


LATEST UPDATE: For the American Idol Finale (Jessica Sanchez vs Phillip Phillips), the show will be broadcasted on a Wednesday, May 23 (PH) instead of the usual Thursday. So voting will be on Wednesday here in the Philippines and the final results show will be on Thursday, May 24 in the Philippines.

VOTING TIME: WEDNESDAY, (Philippines) 9 AM – 3 PM

Hey Guys-- another bazaar to watch out for this week! I was at their bazaar last year and I swear I had so much fun. There were just too many thingamajigs to buy! Goodness!

Celebrate the most coveted week in Philippine fashion with SUPERB.

From the makers of SuperSale Bazaar, they would like to invite you to SUPERB- the most prestigious shopping event in Philippine fashion. They are celebrating the most coveted sartorial week in the metro with a 5-day bazaar housing upcoming designers and local RTW brands. It will be a sneak peek of their latest pre-fall collections with a hint of summer items!

Happy Monday! Let's all get inspired by doing my review of the 4-pc eyeshadow I am currently loving.

Ever Bilena has pigmented eyeshadows and I always find myself checking out what's there to see whenever I am at their counter in the malls. While some people frown on local makeup products, I am always checking out their products because this brand is sooo affordable and most ladies out there can for sure afford this. I previously reviewed their Ever Bilena Mousse Eyeshadow here which is very pigmented and deserves recognition.

I am currently loving the Ever Bilena Expressive Eyes 4 in Roses R Pink. The colors are so pigmented: green, blue, bronze and old rose. Sadly though I was told by one sales attendant from SM Makati that they are discontinuing this product. When I asked why, she could not give me a definite answer so I am hoping they are trying to replace this with a better one.

I've always wanted to go to the Shu Uemura's classes but they always run out of stock in group buying sites. So when we had the chance, well, we took it! It was held at the Shangrila Mall in EDSA with internationally acclaimed Shu makeup artist, Mr. Patrick Alcober and oh, we had the chance to get introduced to Ms. Carla Dunareanu of the famous asian show, The Kitchen Musical. She is very charming and oh so gorgeous!

Happy Sunday Bellas!

Anyhow- just going to share Oprah's thoughts on body lovin'.

Ah--- sorry arms if sometimes we are in dispute but I want you to know I still love you nevertheless:)


Love,
Miss J

UNIQLO Philippines casts finally revealed! From L- R: Chris Tiu, Iza Calzado, Nikki Gil and Chito Miranda Photo Credit: UNIQLO's Facebook Page

Weeeeee!UNIQLO is finally in the Philippines. I first saw this brand during my first Beijing trip few years ago. I loooved it! They have a huge store in Sanlitun, Beijing which houses all their fashion, apparel and accessories. And I mean lots of them!

What do you think about dieting? I think it's cool until you realize that it isn't easy. I've been called plus size, overweight, fat, chubby, or plump and while it stings a bit to hear comments such as those, I think I have already come to terms with my own self a long time ago.

Weeee! Happy weekend to you my dear readers!

I made a little shopping the other day at SM Department Store in Makati. I like to go there to check out items if I am in the mood for some bargain hunting (read: sale) aside from thrift stores.


I was looking for a huge tank top for some look I intend to try. But got too excited to see they are on sale being Mother's Day is on Sunday. And what's even nicer is that all these items are under Php 500 (approx $ 12).

Very Korean, noh?

Ciao Bellas!

As you may have remembered, I was hired as MUA for a soon-to-be bride, Zhe last Sunday which I blogged here. Well I thought I want to share to you some of the pics from that shoot.

How many pairs of Havaianas do you own? I own about 4 pairs. I used to wonder why people fancy this pricey slippers when you can for sure get one 1/10 of its price.

Just last week,  I was one of the bloggers who got invited to Zalora's Grand Launch which incidentally is happening tonight, May 9, 8pm at Sky Lounge, W Building, Bonifacio Global City. 

If I am going to be a famous singer in a band, I'll probably name my group, "The Bandana Bandits". I think girls who can sport this look are pretty, confident and awesome!

He's hot, hot, hot!

You might have remembered Jeremy Renner  in the past few months as the cast and crew of the latest Bourne installment shot some scenes here in sunny Manila. You should watch out for that movie sometime in August this year. Awesome, right?
