All you need to do is visit this site, click “support” link and sign up.  Orchard Road is a must-see location for tourists, mostly because it’s Singapore’s premier shopping district… err, street. But when it’s Christmastime, you also get to enjoy their decorations, events and random knick knacks along this busy street.   I’m not entirely sure what’s the theme for this year. Last year, it was Christmas Blooms in Singapore and the street was filled with blue lights with cursive designs (which I assume represents vines or something). Here are some of the snaps I took two weeks ago (my average backlog because everything is always on queue):  [[MORE]] Orchard Central has the most decorations at the time. They’ve also set up smalls stalls offering cute stuff inside the mall, some of the shops even offer vintage boxes and luggages. <3  Paragon was fully covered with lights. It’s a really pretty sight and a lot of people were outside the mall, just taking photos.  The decorations outside ION Orchard was still pretty much the same.  View more photos here. These photos were taken for a photography job. I would appreciate it that you don’t use them without the client or my permission. :)

The Style Mermaid by Kisty Mea • Five Gift Ideas Christmas is right around the corner! It’s that time of the month to scour through malls to find that perfect gift. True, the Philippines don’t have an annual Black Friday but as Christmas goes nearer, it feels like Black Friday is in every shopping malls in the country. But why go to the malls when you can shop online? Lazada Philippines is an online shopping mall with free delivery services. They provide a wide variety of products, from Body Shop beauty goodies to Apple gadgets. Here are some of the interesting stuff I found on their website: [[MORE]] Sephora Brush Roll- A collection of both natural and synthetic bristles. Give this to your friend who’s into fashion and beauty. Urban Naked Palettes- And they’re finally here! Most girls want to have a piece of this palette and this is your chance. Which palette do you prefer? 1 or 2? Let me know in the comments! Polaroid Z340 - I was surprised when I saw this online. Most of the time, items like these are not readily available in the Philippines. *u* Share photos instantly with this baby! If budget is an issue, you can get the Fujifilm Instax Mini in Pink! Nikon D3100 18-55mm lens - For the boys (and girls). If your beau wants to give photography a try, then this is a must-buy gadget. Wait, Nikon or Canon? To be honest, it doesn’t matter. Both brands are great brands, it’s a matter of personal preference. :)  Sony PlayStation 3- When Sony gave us a free PS3, I was ecstatic and I’m a girl. I’m sure that if you give your boyfriend a PS3, he will feel the same.  Remember that it’s the thought that counts but if you’re going to give someone special a gift, it might as well be something he/she wants or useful to his/her lifestyle. If these items are way beyond your set budget, don’t worry! Just check out Lazada Philippines for more Christmas gift ideas. They have a wide variety of products to choose from and they also offer free shipping! And if you don’t have a credit card, you can pay cash on delivery! And because it’s Christmas, make sure you join their 12 Gifts of Christmas Campaign Raffle! Enjoy shopping, loves! photo credit

The Style Mermaid by Kisty Mea • Christmas 2010 If there’s one thing I love about my family is that they’re always game for anything, whether it’s an instant road trip to places in Batangas or do a full-out costume party on Christmas.  I hate sharing photos of my family primarily because I value my privacy but I miss them and I really like this photo. This was our celebration two Christmases ago and the theme was cartoons characters. It was funny coz’ almost everyone was in character. My little sister even made her own camera to complete her Barbie outfit (not really sure why she needs a camera but still!). I, on the other hand, came as Sailor Chibimoon minus the customized wig.
