 It's the love month already! Have you thought of a treat to your loved ones? :)

Valentine's Day doesn't mean spending it with your boyfriend or husband, or maybe worrying because you're single and you don't have a date. It's just a special day that celebrates love. You have your friends and family, you can spend it with them! They're the people you love right?

Trust me, this is going to be my first time to celebrate Valentine's Day with a boyfriend. I'm 21 and yes, he's my first. :) I've experienced Valentine's dates before but not with someone that I'm really in a relationship with. I've celebrated Valentine's day with family and friends. I ALWAYS receive treats from my family. Thank God for family right? I always receive a Valentine's gift. But of course, I'm excited to celebrate it tomorrow because I'm with the man I love. hihi *cheese* Hi Love! ;)

Anyway, talking about Valentine's treats, Honeybee and Tokyo Bubble Tea offers different specialty cakes that you can purchase for your loved ones! They have lots of flavors to choose from! Scroll down and see what can satisfy your sweet tooth! ;)

seeing this makes me drool haha excuses 
Matcha Tiramisu! For the tea lovers out there! :)
Strawberry Shortcake! One of my favorite flavors!
Always a fan of Chocolate Flavored goodies!
Something sweet and healthy!:) 
Doesn't this make your sweet tooth excited? :)



Besides specialty cakes, they also have other baked goodies for your titos, titas, lolos and lolas! :)


I'd like to thank Honeybee and Tokyo Bubble Tea for this early Valentine's gift! Sharing this Red Velvet goodness to the people I love for sure! :)

Good Dress Up First and Forever. ELENABLOG

Remember around 4 years ago, when Forever 21 first opened in SM Megamall? The lines were long and the people were all excited to shop and splurge in Forever 21's chic and trendy pieces! Now, as one of the biggest fashion retail store in the Philippines, Forever 21 relaunches their pioneer branch in  SM Megamall. Forever 21 Megamall had a major face lift to provide its customers the best service and a great shopping experience every time they visit Forever 21.

The Forever 21 event set-up inside the store. Very exclusive and intimate. ;)
Of course, what's a launch without a fashion show? Forever 21 is known for holding fashion shows every time they open a new store. This one's worth the show!


They showcased their Fall collection. Lots of fall colors such as burgundy, teal, black, caramel, gray and tan were seen on the runway. 


Forever 21 is known for being trendy so what's Fall without layering? Lots of layering, structured pieces, pull overs, denims and of course, hosiery! It's the time to put your stockings on to achieve that chic Fall look! ;)

That midi leather skirt is rad!

This sporty meets sexy look tops the list! And that bag! Oh you know how I love white shoes and bags!:)

I have this pastel pink leather jacket! I swear it turns every simple outfit around!

Power couple Jessica Yang and John James Uy walked down the runway with this pretty girl! Adorable! They look like a family! :)



Forever 21's Business Unit Head Ms. Dixie Li.


A styling game for the bloggers.


Supportive boyfriend award! hihi Thanks love for taking photos. I was late because I came from work so he took these photos for my blog! :*

 The revamped Forever 21 Megamall!:)






The store looks great right? Good as new!:)

What are you waiting for? Shop at Forever 21 now and score their trendy fall pieces! :)

Good Dress Up Denim on Denim + Tiger Pad Guesting. ELENABLOG

Hiiii! :)

I must say, being a working girl really ate up my time and made me on a blogging hiatus for months! Actually not just work but I also chose to stay away from the computer on weekends to spend it with my family and friends. But now, I finally squeezed in some time to document outfits and write this blog post. Honestly, even though I dress up nicely at work (yes, we're required to dress up like a walking mannequin) I can't take pictures of my outfits everyday because I'm busy. hehe I just post outfits on my instagram account: @nicooolesantos.

 Anywaaaay I'm really excited to share this one to you because I finally have decent pictures and stories to tell. A lot of things happened to me these past few months. Awesome things actually. As much as I want to jot down everything here, time won't allow me to stay up too late because I have to wake up early tomorrow and I'm afraid I might bore you. haha! Still, I'm obliging myself to do so because I owe you one interesting post for being M.I.A. for months. ;)

I'm really thankful for all the things that happened and is happening to me right now. Really. First, even though I'm busy at work, I love what I'm doing and I just got regularized YAY! Second, I'm really enjoying spending time with my family and friends these past few days. I feel like a Superwoman whenever I manage to get things done at work and be good in being a sister, daughter and a friend to the people around me. Lastly, besides being a good sister, daughter and friend, I'm really happy being a girlfriend to the most awesome guy ever! (Yiiieee..Hi love if ever you're reading this. haha ew cheeseball ).

On the other note, I did something for the first time recently! I was invited to be a guest in Tiger Pad, a TV Production in the University of Santo Tomas to be interviewed live. It was shown in every establishment in the university. I was really excited because I'll be going back to my alma mater and I'll be doing this interview! Let me share you what I wore and what happened during that day! :)














Denim pants, Charm Bracelet, Necklace, Stilettos, Bag and Belt, FOREVER 21.

Who says denim is boring? I say otherwise! Denim is chic. I've decided to wear this denim on denim outfit, something casual yet chic for the interview. It's a school thing so dressing up comfortably is a must and I've planned lots of things to do that day. The secret to denim on denim dressing is wearing denim in different shades and wearing minimal accessories. Denim is heavy itself so wearing lots of accessories can make your look overdone. In this outfit, I chose to pair whites and a bit of gold to my denim duo. :)

 Feels so good to be back! I've missed UST! Quite nostalgic actually. :)

 As soon as I got there, the people of Tiger Pad oriented me with the flow of the show and the questions to be asked so I could make up my thoughts already because it's a live interview.

 Commercial breaks! Look at our studio! Small yet perfect for a campus TV production! Great job Prime Productions!:)

 I was asked about tips and how to's on Thrift shopping. Being thrifty was their main topic that day. Different ways to be thrifty in food and fashion. I find it a good topic for college students. 

 The Tiger Pad Team! Thank you for having me for your first Live TV Show, Prime Productions! I really had a great time! :)


So there, I hope I was able to pay up for my months of absence with this post! haha! Expect me to post regularly again soon!:)

Share me your take on the denim on denim trend! Tweet me @nicooolesantos or comment your links below! :)

XOXO,
Nicole
