05.28.2014 by Leah // 2 Comments

The bid/auction is finally ON for this gorgeous Palawan Pearl Necklace that I mentioned in my earlier post.  You can place your bids at my eBay.ph account.  For the sake of transparency, I will not accept bids outside eBay. Here's a screenshot of the eBay listing I made: A picture of me 'modeling' the pearl necklace.  I was able to capture the pearls' colors perfectly ... READ MORE

Bid for this: Pearl Necklace from Palawan

05.25.2014 by Leah // 7 Comments

I got inspirational boost from the messages and comments you left when I mentioned about the jewelry business I was invited to join.  Just to update you, I've already sent message to my interested partner that I will not be able to do it.  I was really sad to let it go, but then again, another opportunity knocked during my trip at Palawan the other day. It all started with ... READ MORE

But there was one store that stood out because it has a "brand name": Berdori ... READ MORE

I received this lovely charm necklace with St. Anthony de Padua in it from my officemate this week.    Thank you so much, Ate Au for this thoughtful gift! Often depicted holding the Christ Jesus, St. Anthony de Padua is one of the most beloved saints in the world, and is the patron saint for lost items. Let me end this post by sharing with you this beautiful prayer to St. ... READ MORE

Duchess Catherine’s Necklace

07.20.2012 by Leah // Leave a Comment

I love the blue Stella McCartney dress but what do you think of the Cartier Trinity Necklace? The long necklace reportedly cost £49,000 and the highlights of this luxury jewelry are the 5 entwined circles of pink, yellow and white gold dotted with diamonds.   It was said to symbolize the Olympic rings. I think the necklace is pretty but not too flattering with her ... READ MORE

I LOVE accessories! If you have been following this blog, you'll know that I collect bangles.    I love fashionable necklaces as well, and I am particularly drawn to stylish pieces that are creatively put together.   So when I saw these hand-crafted necklaces made by Prim and Preppy Accessories, I know that I have to get one (or two).   I love beautiful things and I know ...

To My Father By Georgia Harkness A giant pine, ma To My Father
By Georgia Harkness

A giant pine, magnificent and old
Stood staunch against the sky and all around
Shed beauty, grace and power.
Within its fold birds safely reared their young.
The velvet ground beneath was gentle,
and the cooling shade gave cheer to passers by.
Its towering arms a landmark stood, erect and unafraid,
As if to say, “Fear naught from life’s alarms”.
It fell one day.
Where it had dauntless stood was loneliness and void.
But men who passed paid tribute – and said,
“To know this life was good,
It left it’s mark on me. Its work stands fast”.
And so it lives. Such life no bonds can hold –
This giant pine, magnificent and old.

To our shelter and safety while he lived, we miss you so much.
Happy 2nd Year in Heaven, Daddy ❤
