Have you tried Bench Dialy Scent colognes?

A cousin gave me a box of Bench Daily Scent Cologne as Christmas present and so I have the privilege to get a  whiff of these highly advertised colognes which are made out of fragrance oil from Grasse France. Although all of the colognes are mild and have refreshing scents, among the six variants inside the box, my favorite one is the Nine To Mine scent, which  is sweet and a little tangy.  

Other scents in the box are: Sunday Morning, Indian Summer, Spring Break, Happy Hour and Lazy Afternoon. For more of the scent description, check this article.

Oh BTW, I think it’s a perfect gift for teenagers. And forget about shipping boxes because  a small box of the Daily Scent which can be used as trial pack is available, too.

Dropping by www.wholesaleinsurance.net, I am reminded to make an important decision whether to continue with our existing insurance policies. Not that I have big issues with them, it’s just that I’ve been thinking about long-term plans.

But as these are mostly arranged by the hubster, I think a lengthy discussion on this concern is in order. But I bet it’s going to be a good one, as always. So all the best for next year!

Merry Christmas to one and all!

What a titillating title! It reads “parental guidance” but  really this post is not. The only thing is, I just couldn’t think of a better title so we’ll leave it at that.

So anyway, I just want to say that Victoria Secret Pure Seduction Body Butter touched me today. And I feel sooo good.

It’s actually a Christmas present from a cousin and I love it. It’s been a while since I last used a VS product and as always, I always think that their lotions or butters are more than that. They can also be used as fragrance. Well, at least for me. When I do use their lotion, I no longer use cologne or perfume after. Economical ey?

So there. I swear seductive this afternoon. Now off to check Blue Advantage.
Merry Christmas everyone.

I so wished I can post a pic of it -but maybe later.

Anyway speaking of bags, I’m so happy to have received a lovely lavender Giordano bag from my cousin - thank you so much.

I totally love it - color and all. It’s actually my second lavender bag, after my trendy Kipling, which I so love because of its many compartments and its silk gold lining. This new lavender bag is also the third Giordano bag in my collection - I have one hobo bag and a classic black bag from Giordano, which I bought in early 2009 (or was it late 2008?).

Have I made a post about North Face bags? Can’t be too sure.

But I so dig North Face backpacks. And I should have made a blurb about it before. So anyway, I have one that’s a gift from a friend and it’s my favorite traveling companion -along with my pink Nalgene water bottle. *smiles*

My husband also has one green North Face backpack, which  I gave to him as advance birthday present. If I could find a little backpack for my toddler, then surely, you’ll see me queueing at the counter. 

I was viewing a punta cana all inclusive holiday package online and all I can say is “WOW!” Looking at the photos, I’m really wowwed at the beauty of the place. ANd I can’t help but feel so so thrilled. And envious to people who are already on their way to enjoying the sun, sand and sea there - because as much as I would love to have a vacation now, I just cannot do that. Not even if I have free tickets and hotel accomodation. 

For reasons I am not in control, I just can’t.

So for now, I’ll just torture myself with these photos. Maybe one day in the near future, when schedule and state of being will allow me to, the gods would look kindly at me and give me a special holiday treat. Then for sure, it would be a blast!

Before I check some industrial computers online, lemme just greet my brother on his special day - Happy Birthday, Bro! May God bless you with good health and happy life always.

And hope you like the carrot cake I ordered for your little party at home. It’s from a local bakeshop called Cecil’s and it’s affordable. Although I’m a little disappointed that it has icing on it (I don’t like my carrot cake to have icing), the taste of the cake and its pineapple filling quite justified the unexpected topping. :-)
