Chase Your Dreams

Most of you won't understand and might find it superficial because you don't know the back story but this isn't for you. It's for one of the bravest people I know. I've probably written 20 paragraphs unable to say the simplest thoughts. I've decided to settle on one little sentence.

It's never too late to do what you love.

New HQ! (headyreadyquarters)

One Saturday on a February, a shark/raccoon decided to clean her room at her mum's house. The need was beginning to surface as her "boho" inner being is apparently showing itself in her own room. Meaning, her room was being "makalat" (messy) in all levels. YUP the raccoon is a hoarder translate into Filipino, basurera queen.

 After a day of reorganizing and throwing out old things of no use i.e. daunting prom pictures(ehem), bottle caps, clothes , tags from clothes, old makeup, random posters......etc...came the generous reward for the raccoon, this all being done in daylight.

Today was not so bad as I was able to see all the stuff I have gathered in a year (I actually just moved in this house a year ago) and I guess I need to do this at least every 6 months just so I can keep track of the things I use. Constant change dare I say.

Unearthed these Archie Digest from the 90s! Childhood feels, I found exactly 5 copies with a lot of dust feasting on them. Timely for Mega magazine's latest issue with Betty Cooper and Veronica Lodge on the cover.

I haven't gotten into buying my vanity table yet because I haven't found the perfect one(sorry for my pity problem). I don't know how tumblr can show me lots of pretty unbelievable ones and come the time I enter furniture shops, nada. Any suggestions? Although my friend Sam and I are planning to go to Ikea soon.

Anyway this is my temporary vanity table the top shelf of my middle drawer. I find this convenient at the moment when putting on makeup as I can just lift the blinds of my window and poof *natural lighting perfection*. This was the hardest bit during my cleaning session. Having to pick out the basic gunk I need for my face to look more human and less of a zombie. The rest of my stash I now hide in drawers(a makeup junkie here).

Also notice my diy holders for my bobby pins, eyeliners, and earbuds. I SPY empty film canisters!

BUT THE BEST PART OF MY CLEANING DAY WAS.....

       mAAnic mondays' 
       new headquarters!!!

Some of the essentials and our moodwall!

My mom over the week called me and asked me to fix my room when I get home over the weekend(thus the emergency spring cleaning). My messy tables for my crafty wafty things were starting to eat my whole room. "KALAT IN ALL LEVELS!". I asked her if I can transfer the so-called makeshift work station in our attic and gladly she said yes.

HOORAY! JUST ADD ANOTHER CHAIR FOR WHEN AYA COMES OVER. ENOUGH DESK SPACE FOR US TWO!

One of the perks of having to move in the new headquarters is that we get a great meek view from the window. Warm sunset skies over that forest looking strip of land(or moonlit land for the raccoon on a full moon)! In case we get too tired we'll  seize a bit of inspiration from this tiny opening.

Really happy with our new home.Can't wait for the next sleepover and notepad making sesh! So did any of you actually end up cleaning your rooms also? what things did you guys unearth?

Opposite Day

Hiyaaa

As you guys have noticed we've always been unexpectedly match matchy err Monday so surprisingly we wore totally different styles last Monday!

Arabella's Monday Mood: back to her roots! Boho!

Was really stressed out this day so I opted to wear my mum's hand me down skirt not so fresh from the 80s, this so far is my favorite maxi skirt!

Was able to wear the same outfit all day, this was taken at Ritual which is my favorite organic store, which we'll try to blog about soon!

Aya's Mood: Black and Polished

The funny thing is I got inspired by a kid, my little cousin Gab! I swear she's got taste and almost better clothes than me, runs in theee blood!

Although wearing black can be a drag if you're wearing it head to toe but try mixing different textures, I think it works just fine!

Favorite blazer in the world! Power dressing without the hassle!



 What was your mood last Monday?
XX,
Aya and Arabella
