How I Made It Thru My Laziness


I woke up one morning and thought, I want to shop! But I was too lazy to get up and dress myself to pass by malls before I go to work. And then, I remembered my good friend Zalora.

I wasn't really a fan of buying things online (especially huge amounts) because I feel my credit card might get screwed and might end me owing something I did not purchase. Aside from that, I was also not really very confident that I might not get the right size or it's not the one I bought, or simply, I don't like it at all, pala! Until I knew of someone who has tried this online purchasing and so I tried it. 

This is already my second time to buy in Zalora. Remember, after being curious of buying online., this time Zalora helped my PMS-ing issues. :) 

Zalora has thousands of goods anything from clothes to shoes to accessories, branded or from the marketplace, for men and of course, for the ladies. My favorites come from Spring Fling and Something Borrowed. Affordable, classy and good materials, Zalora chooses their line of items for sale well. Sort items by price, popularity or by doscount, Zalora makes it easy for you to shop.


You need to have an account to get through, a few clicks, and then...


There are ways on you can pay for your items - credit card, bank deposit or cash on delivery (just make sure you are there when they deliver). Deliver fee costs Php 100 but when you buy worth Php 1,000, delivery fee is free :)

My items arrived 2 days after. It was actually more exciting than buying in malls because you'll have to wait and see how the items will look (and feel) like. No need to worry if it doesn't fit you or so, attached in the packaging is an instruction how you can return the items with terms and conditions.

Here's what was delivered to me :)



The box came  with coupons on your next purchase and an insta-prize entry.



Some tips in buying in Zalora:
1. Know your size. Do not settle with what size is available, skip it and just look for other items.
2. Read reviews on the item, if available, especially if it's your first time.
3. Bulk buy and try to reach Php 1,000 to save for the delivery fee. (But don't force if you're like buying only a few hundreds worth. You might end up buying you do not need.)
4. If you're a couple of hundreds from reaching a thousand, look for items in the beauty section to buy soap, shampoo or anything you used to buy from the grocery (Just like I did) or something you know you can give it as a present later on. I did not force myself to buy something I will not use.
5. Make sure you provide the correct details and there will be someone to receive the items if you are not around.

Buying online saves time and effort and brings more excitement when the items arrive. :)

Happy shopping!

First Plane Ride

Do you remember the first time you rode the plane? Nowadays, it’s very easy for kids to experience their first plane ride as fares are cheaper. Thanks to budget airlines that once had a vision that every person can ride a plane once in their lives. I took my first plane ride when I was 5 years old. Lucky to experience that young, I was with my mom and my sister when all of us rode the plane for the first time to travel. I had no idea what was this travel is all about, even did not have any knowledge where we’re going. All I knew was that, we’re riding the plane and we were going somewhere far where my dad studied his Master’s degree. Not all kids, during that time, had that chance. And definitely, not all kids had the chance to travel to Europe so I am most thankful to my lola (who’s in US) who gave us this opportunity. Here’s my picture back then. We had a stopover in Hongkong Airport and this innocent kid asked her mom why we were getting down the plane. My mom answered...

For Parents with Newborn: How to Get More Sleep

Not an expert on this one but I just want to share how we managed Sofia's sleep at night. When people ask me if I'm getting enough sleep since Sofia came, they are always surprised to hear that I get enough sleep ever since. Of course the first few weeks were zombie sleeping but it was just because I need to feed my daughter every 2 hours to stimulate my milk. But Sofia did not really (and is not) give us a hard time to get enough sleep.  I've heard some moms whose babies were wide awake and would play in the middle of the night. My daughter never did that. She'd only wake up and cry because of normal stuff like colic, too hot or too cold room temperature, wet diaper or simply wanted to be fed but not at all, because she wanted to play. So for moms with newborns coming, here are my tips. Some I got from a pediatrician. 1. Breastfeed and co-sleep. Of course, so to minimize the need to move. The first two and a half months, co-sleeping and breastfeeding did...

Little Big Thing of the Day: Thermos Cafe

We all know how hot these days have been and our only armor will be water to keep us hydrated. Lately, I have been waking up my husband in the middle of our sleep to get me a glass of water and to turn on our aircon and this has been a habit. My husband’s fat brain (in other words, matabang utak) thought of this brilliant idea to bring a good amount of water upstairs in our room and put the remote of our aircon beside us. To keep the water cold, (I’m sure this preggo doesn’t want to drink warm water when she’s dehydrated) Lester puts out his Thermo Cafe drinking bottle. Don’t get the title wrong, this thermos retains the temperatures of both hot and cold water. For us, we sleep at least six hours and the water is still cold when you wake up even until the afternoon. A good buy, my husband bought this for only a few hundred bucks in New Zealand around three years ago and still works wonders! I think this cost more than a thousand here in Manila but still it’s worth the price....
