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!

Worries of a Soon-to-be-Mom

Gestational Diabetes- that’s what my OB has been suspecting that might have two weeks ago when I had my check up. I’m guessing it was the mangoes, juice, and white rice and I thought the amount I was eating was just enough to satisfy my craving. But it seems not- though my endo was not really worried about it because my blood sugar and urine tests show normal results, my OB still insists I might have one. I was even thinking my OB is just over-acting on the situation and even still asked me to see the in-house endo in the hospital where I will give birth. It worries me a lot though – I see my daughter getting bigger everyday. I feel very normal though – I am not a big preggo mom. But with that suspicion, I needed to prick my finger three times a day for two weeks to check my blood sugar. All of these foods are very tempting but I’m doing this for my daughter. With that saying and to tone down the stress level, I’m avoiding hearing negative vibes around me- that I need to do this a...

Cooking Fever: Gising-Gising

I cooked this once for my husband to satisfy his spicy taste. I first tried this in Recipes and found it yummy. :) Ingredients: Garlic, chopped Onions (Red), chopped Baguio beans, chopped into pieces Ground Pork Red Chili Pepper, chopped Green Chili Peppers (Siling haba) Coconut milk Salt, pepper and soy sauce to taste 1. Saute onions and garlic. Add the ground pork. 2. Add a little bit of soy sauce to taste.     3. Once the pork is cooked, add Coconut Milk. For this recipe, I used the instant ones (just add water!) but I think it'll taste better if you use those you can buy from the market.  4. Add Baguio beans (not string beans!) and all the chilis - depending on your taste. I used less red ones but separated my share because I'm not really into spicy food (except sisig!) 5. Put salt and pepper to taste 6. Serve This is my first blog to write about recipes so please pardon my instructions. I really do not know...

Little Big Things: Baby Needs

Little Javier is halfway on its journey to see the world. Just like preparing for a wedding and moving to a new house, baby preps are just as exciting. I’ve been doing my research lately and my husband and I never get tired of window shopping for baby needs. Here are my top picks that I can’t wait to get for my little one: 1. Breast Pumps Breast milk is still best for babies. Being the eldest, I’ve learned how to feed my siblings while they were young except of course, breast milking them. As far as I can remember, they were (or we were) Promil kids and I was very used to mixing the formula powdered milk and water. But nowadays, breast feeding is very well-promoted. Even hospitals do not allow formula milks for new-born babies. I’m setting aside an amount to invest for breast pumps (and the accessories). After all, you’ll be saving a lot for formula milks. Planning to get myself a manual pump first – just to check and then later on, get an electric one. I’m a workin...
