Busy Tuesday and Purple Jazz

Tuesday, May 17, 2011, My mom and I had a lot of things to do so we ate at this new restaurant, Purple Jazz, for lunch. It was fairly new since I think they haven't finished all the wall decorations and stuff. It was a nice and inviting place since it was spacious and they have a very unique bar filled with old LP's. So cool. The menu was okay, we went for the budget meal since we just went there to grab a quick lunch. (I'll try the restaurant's specials next time.) I liked the "uniform" of the lady servants in the restaurant. Very cute in their purple mini dress and white high socks! I ordered butter chicken with chopsuey and Iced tea and my mom ordered fish fillet with chopsuey and iced tea. They were good. In a rating of 5, Ill give them 3.5. :) For dessert, we tried their chocolate mousse and I must say it tastes wonderful! It's just like how my mom makes it! Super satisfied with it, also affordable at 100 pesos. The rest of the day was spent on errands, Bible Study at Church and a stroll in the mall.

Here are the photos I took: (Sorry of the low-res photos. Didn't bring my SLR. Took photos with my my phone's 5MP camera.)

I was not paid to blog about this restaurant, okay? I just wanted to share. :) Purple Jazz is located at the Parking Area of Amigo Plaza Mall.

Make-Up Folio

So I mentioned about building my make-up portfolio in this blog entry. I did all the hair and make-up, styling and photography. These are just parts of the 2 photo shoots I did. Tell me what you think. ;)


Lady in Red:
Model: Anne Decipulo



We tried Tyra Bank's Shadow shoot ;)
I had my shoot with Anne just in our house. I made her sit under the sun, inside the car, stand beside the French window, etc. It was a super fun shoot and she was amazing! It felt like she's been modeling for a long time. I was a little surprised because she was really shy. ;)

One With Nature:
Model: Jenny Ledesma




This shoot with Jenny was actually done in a cemetery near our subdivision. It was a little bit windy and sunny at the same time but I enjoyed it. Clearly, she did as well. ;) I especially loved the color palette that I chose for her make up although I wanted her eyes to really sparkle but in the end, it turned out to be good! :)

'Till the next make-up post!

Floral Sunday

Last Sunday was just like any other Sunday for me and my family. We went to church then spent the rest of the afternoon at the mall to eat and hang out. I wore my new skirt  I bought after the "Pizzaro Date" at Blacksheep. I kinda like it because it's trendy but I don't get to compromise it's comfort and fit. It was one of those times I traded my jeans (I'm a jeans girl) for a nice looking skirt. ;-)

Hand me down: my dad gave me his watch ;)

Blacksheep skirt, Girbaud bag, ctwalk studded gladiators

Thanks mom, for taking this! :)
Oh, nothing special really happened on this Sunday but the kids in our Church had a memory test on their Bible Verses. ;) Here's a picture of my sister, Dordz, who is the Sunday School teacher with a student who happens to be our niece! lol
