Why Choose Emo Jewelry

Aside from gold and silver, another metal called stainless steel is emerging in the multi-billion international jewelry industry. Here in the Philippines, I know of one brand that sells stainless steel jewelries at reasonable prices: Emo. The first Emo shop I visited was the one in Mall of Asia near the cinemas. I was with the fiancé and his sister A then. The latter even purchased a pair of earrings from the store which she’s been using until now.

An Exquisite Birthday Gift

My cousin is the luckiest. Her loving husband who works in the US promised to give her a BIG birthday present this year! She even asked my cousin to choose her own gift this time but of course there is a limit to his budget.

Well, anyway, she’s very thankful of his generosity. With her given cash, she can now go for her first diamond earrings! She’s been saving up for months to buy one set of green jewelry that consists of a pair of earrings, a pendant and ring but they still had to wait for a couple of months before she could do so.

green diamond earrings

Oh, what money can buy! With her hubby’s birthday cash gift, my cousin can now get one whole set of these jewelry though they are synthetic diamonds solitaire earrings. She said she’s so looking forward to getting them on her exact birthday.

Don’t you just love it when people shower you with love and affection that they’d go the extra mile to make you happy? I do. My birthday isn’t happening in the next ten months but still, I can’t stop myself from imagining the present I’ll get from my fiance who’s gonna be my husband then. :)

Christmas Gift Idea: Eyewear

I am guessing by now you have already started Christmas shopping. I know of several people who have started doing this as early as March! Here in Manila, it’s customary for people to give Christmas presents to family, friends, co-workers, associates, fellow club members, and even favorite neighbors. More than the customs and traditions, gift-giving is about showing gestures of thoughtfulness and love as well as sharing of one’s blessings to others.

Shipping with Johnny Air: My Personal Experience

When I bought my first ever Longchamp Le Pliage bag, which happens to be my dream bag, I had it shipped to the Philippines thru Johnny Air Cargo. It’s a 100% Filipino cargo company that ships “more than just packages.” One of their services is Retail Padala and that’s what I availed of. I seriously think this is the best shipping option for those who would like to ship items to the Philippines from abroad. I have long heard about Johnny Air’s good service from blogger friends and it’s the only time I have tried it. This is my personal shipping experience with them.

Online Shopping at Magnums.net: My Personal Experience

I remember reading someone’s blog about her bag lemming before and it was there where I came across Magnums.net. I checked out the site and was wowed by their vast inventory of merchandise from different brands. My eyes were particularly glued to their Longchamp bags and before I knew it I was already signing up for their email shopping updates.
