Friday Must-Go Events

I scheduled a trip to the mall with my cousin-in-law tomorrow to check out Howards Storage World. We're itching to fix our home/room and we need some storage ideas.

And then I find out there are other reasons to leave the house like Uniqlo opening at MOA!

They're selling jeans and dresses for P590 during the opening week. I need affordable transition clothes! Clothes that fit well while I try to lose my pregnancy weight. 

And then there's the Rockwell Bazaar...

Some of my fave online stores will be selling their stuff. And it's been awhile since I went to a bazaar.

I've also seen other malls that will go on sale this weekend. There's also a ToyCon in Megamall that I wish I could visit too.

Imelda Organizes

While still at home I decided to organize my shoes. Most of my shoes are under our bed or the space under our sink in the bathroom. It's driving me crazy to crouch down and reach under our bed every time I'm looking for a pair! And the truth is, I'm running out of space...

I've kept most of my shoes in their boxes. But when we travel and buy shoes abroad, most of the time we leave the boxes behind to save on baggage space. 

So, for the pairs without boxes I bought clear boxes from Little Emily Shop.  

These boxes are P50/each, but you can also get it at wholesale price of P280 for 8pcs or P35. Not bad right?! Very easy to assemble. I saw these at Robinson's and they sell it at P90!

I don't have a shoe closet like Carrie Bradshaw... although I wish I had one! I had our maids put everything in the third floor of our house for the meantime. The area was suppose to be a den but right now it looks like a storage area for everything...

I sort of organized everything by brand and/or by use. Put together all those with boxes on one side.

As you can see, I have lots from Schu. A few from Anthology Shoes, Salt Water Sandals, So! F.A.B., Tory Burch and Jeffrey Campbell.

Then all those in clear boxes I stacked together too. Categorized to: dressy shoes, casual (flats and sandals), sneakers, office shoes and black pumps.

I like shoe boxes with pictures of the style/design outside for easy identification.

I can't believe they all fit under our bed!!! Next are the shoes under my sink... not as many shoes but it's the several dozens of Havaianas I have to sort out!

Yes, I'm Shoe In Love!

For shoe addicts out there! You'll definitely see me here.

What's Your Mix?

Apparently the new ad campaign of Bayo failed big time to capture the hearts of its target market. Instead, it captured the ire of many, finding it too racist.

Personally, I understand where they're coming from. But as usual, execution failed.

Many thought it was the bad copywriting...

It was trying to convey that any race mixed with Filipino blood produces beautiful people.

If you think about it, the television is full of mix breeds... Anne Curtis, Bea Alonzo, The De Rossi sisters, and so on. And they ARE beautiful.

Aminin! When we see beautiful foreign-looking kids with not so pretty looking moms with them, we say "foreigner siguro tatay nyan!"

But Bayo lost the fight. The wildfire the ad campaign caused in social media couldn't be contained. Here's the latest statement from them...

What could they have done differently? What do you think?
