All the stars (and their kids) are wearing Skechers shoes

A girl can never have too many pairs of shoes. From boots to sandals, slip-ons to running shoes, it’s important to have a pair or two to choose from for just about any occasion.

OK, so you may run out of space at some point, but you can always do a Lydia Rose Bright – of TOWIE, ahem, fame – and flog older, unwanted pairs on eBay. Or, if you can’t bear to part with them (a collection is a collection, after all) there are several funky shoe holders and storage solutions for your beloved pairs available from most online stores.

But enough about old pairs; this season it’s all about Skechers shoes, the brand that produces the biggest selection of on-the-go shoes – from casual wear to athletic types – on the market. The Skechers brand was highly popular in the 90s, with the likes of Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera wearing them, and gained more popularity amongst kids when the likes of Spears’ son, Jayden, and Jennifer Lopez’s daughter, Emme were spotted out and about in them.

My Windsurfing Ensemble

Going out of town can be quite exciting for me as I get to wear some of my clothes that I don't get to wear every day. One of these pieces is my  crocheted haltered top which I paired with a knitted cardigan sweater since it was a bit chilly that morning. I also wore my layered skirt and my super comfy Cushe slippers. 

When we reached Surf Kamp, I changed into my windsurfing ensemble. Aside from my old Fluidsurf rash guard, I also got to wear my new pair of board shorts and AXA aqua shoes which I bought sometime ago. Teehee. Happiness!

My Nike Air Max 1

I bought myself a pair of Nike Air Max 1 in black/perfect pink. My hubby wanted me to get a new pair of sneakers coz maybe he feels guilty that he has tons of  'em while this is only my fourth pair. Teehee. I still have my Nike Shox, the very first blogger gift I got in 2006 and it's still looking pretty sturdy; I still have my Ryka sneakers which is already looking a bit dilapidated coz it's what I have been using when biking around the village and exercising at home; and my brown and purple Addidas Retrek Jogger which I wore when we climbed the waterfalls in Mambukal and is still looking quite new.

Dancing the Night Away in My Korean Furry Pumps

 

Last weekend, I had the chance to wear my Korean furry pumps again (my 2nd time since I last bought it in one of Eastwood's Holiday Bazaars in  2010) when my hubby and I went on a dinner date in Harbour Square then headed to Republiq in Resorts World Manila to celebrate my girl friend's birthday (Happy birthday, Danes!).

Me and My Twinky Boots

It was sometime last week that I accompanied my sister to Alabang Town Center to look for a pair of Crocs slippers that she's been eyeing for sometime now. She found one for her girlfriend and bought a pair.  On our way out of the big mall, we passed by a window display of fashionable boots. I had no plans of buying but I thought there's no harm in trying out some and see if they fit. 

Cushe Footwear for Me and Peter

Peter is now a freelance entrepreneur just like me. One of the perks of his gigs is that he gets to have some free stuff. The first of which were two pairs of footwear from a trusted quality brand, Cushe.

He was to get a pair of sneakers and a pair of sandals. Truth be told, when Peter shops, he does so far longer than I do. He scrutinizes every little detail and he makes sure that whatever he's buying must be of good quality, otherwise, he won't get it at all. So it's no surprise when he chose one of the most expensive pair of Cushe sneakers on display in their Trinoma branch last weekend.

A-Line Dresses and Caps

I remember my hubby telling me that he is prepared to see the day when I'll grow big like my mom. It's in my genes, he said, so there's really no way of avoiding it unless I get serious with slimming down.

Anyway, this is probably why I like wearing A-line dresses. I may not be very chubby like my mom (yet) but at least the cut of this kind of apparel can hide telltale signs of bulges in my middle. Plus, they're very comfy too. So what I do is just style them up with accessories and other apparel like a pair of shorts or leggings, flat shoes and my favorite caps.

Summer Wear at Enchanted Kingdom

Exploring Enchanted Kingdom and enjoying its many attractions can really tire and sweat you out. This is why when my hubby and I spent our Easter Sunday there, I made sure I had some change of clothes with me. But I didn't change my getup until I got myself wet with all the water rides. ^_^

Cool Getups For Quezon Island Getaway

Last Holy Week, my hubby and I visited Quezon and explored some of the beaches in Padre Burgos. Here's sharing with you the summer getups I wore during that vacation...

Adidas Retrek Jogger

We passed by the Adidas factory outlet in Subic and in NLEX yesterday evening after our camping trip in Potipot Island until Peter and I found a nice pair of rubber shoes we like. The cross trainers I got from Ryka last time were superb for my workout but I needed something that's also good for just biking and jogging. So, I got myself a nice pair of Adidas RETREK JOGGER for women.

Beach Wear for Malapascua Island

I just want to document my beach getup when we went to Malapascua last time:

Philippine Flag Color Fashion

Red, White, Blue and Yellow... They do look pretty together.I didn't even realize it when I chose to wear such colors on the weekend we went shopping & food tripping in Subic.

Shopping Getup

On weekends when my hubby and I were not out of town or beach bumming somewhere, I found myself going to the mall and shopping instead. I know, I know... I should really stop this habit soon. It's killing my finances. Teehee. But anyway, since it's already been done, I might as well enjoy the process, right? I usually wear flats these days, but since I bought those Janilyn shoes, I might as well use them. So for two consecutive Saturdays (March 13 and March 19), I wore my black and burgundy JUAN pairs by JANILYN. Here's the rest of my getup:

Haltered frilled top by Details Trading

Tan leggings from Kuala Lumpur

Coach sling bag

Guess watch

Accessories from Boracay and Cebu

Beach Wear for Dungaree Beach in Subic

Last March 6, we went to Subic and discovered this serene little beach in Subic... See my travel blog for details...

Since I am saving my new summer beach wear for our Caramoan and Butanding trip this coming April, I wore an old Bohemian type turquoise blouse, a white smock which I turned to skirt, and my white pair of Crocs footwear instead.

Speedo Snorkeling Gear

I miss seeing fishes and other underwater creatures while swimming. It's usually Peter who skin dive and go underwater while I either sunbathe or swim whenever we go to the beach.

I do bring my old snorkel and mask but I never really use them lately. Then one day, for some reason, I just suddenly have this huge inkling to go snorkeling! So out of the blue, we went shopping for some snorkeling gear and bought a SPEEDO set of blue life vest (my old one is already quite overused... been around since 2004), blue masks and snorkels for me and Peter, and black & orange FINIS fins.

Purple Getup

Last Feb. 27, my hubby and I stayed overnight at a Php30 Million Peso house in Antipolo. I wanted to travel light, as always, and so I just prepared one motif for that weekend - PURPLE. Here are what I wore:

Footwear: Nike, Ryka, and Rider

I haven't had the time to have the soles of my Nike Shox rubber shoes (which was given to me in 2006 by Nike) repaired so since we were in Subic last Saturday, we went to Duty Free to look at shoes. Peter and I bought a few pairs we both liked. Who knew that come Sunday, I would again buy shoes from Janilyn? Teehee. ^_^

Peter's Nike shoes

Janilyn Footwear

I bought them last weekend and I can't wait to wear them some time soon! They're just so gorgeous! I can't choose which color to buy so as youcan see, for the two designs, I bought two each!

P.S. I just found out that Juan is a brand name taken after Janily's dad. Coolness! It's my last name too! Woot!

Casual Getup on a Weekend

On my birthday weekend last month, I came up with four casual attires perfect for my scheduled activities. For my Momolicious birthday lunch and dinner with family, this was what I came up with: YRYS dress, knitted cardigan and beige tube top from SM, beaded necklace and bracelet which I made myself, Baby G-shock waterproof watch, shades and my reliable Crocs

Summer Wear, Beach Fashion & Party Dresses - My Birthday Loot

I turned 32 last Feb. 18, 2010. But deep inside I still feel like the same Jen I used to be when I was 21 years old --- young, carefree, hopeful, and grateful about life. Maybe I'm just a bit wiser now when it comes to stuff that really matters (like finding my bliss, giving more, paying for a house, car, insurance and other big ticket stuff). So when it comes to money, I don't care much about the brands of stuff I buy especially if it's just clothes and fashion accessories, but as long as I'm comfy & they make me look pretty, as long as the material can withstand the test of time, as long as it's within my budget and means, I go all out for it! So, on my birthday, aside from spending it with my family in Subic doing frightening and life-conquering stunts at TREETOP ADVENTURE, I also spent it with my hubby shopping!!! Here they are:

All these clothes on top say one thing: BEEEEAAAACCCHHHHH!!!!!! ^_^
