cover wars: December (across seas)

hey frogs & rats! :)

here's your regular dose of cover wars across seas.

of course, you're still drooling over the local glossies but

that's exactly the point. let's overdrool. haha! :P

this Coco Rocha cover reminds me of the Preview cover with Solenn Heusaff

and company. so brave without all the teasers. "buy me!" it screams!

Ashley Greene for GQ.

and we two Kate Moss again. :) i love these two covers equally, almost. ;)

this would've been my month's fave, especially since it got Sean O'Pry,

but i-D's so lovely and all emotional. :)

Will Chalker looking all i-D'd and doting. :)

the Beach Hut Bar in Boracay

Beach Hut is everybody's go to face sunscreen when it's time for

frolicking under the sun, in the water, at the beach. :)

it's a travel staple! forget your favorite pair of swimsuit but

do not leave without your Beach Hut. (no, this is not a paid testimonial.)

but in case you DO forget, worry not 'cause the

Beach Hut is sitting pretty on the sands of Boracay waiting to

serve you. and now through refreshing smoothies too! :D

see me thumb-uppin' my strawberry mango surprise? ;) 

yes the smoothies come in this cool and lovely tumblers that

just brighten any day with its tangy color. :)

although they sell this sunscreen dudes in the same shack as the smoothies

are sold, do not fret because they don't share tumblers. heehee. :P

 

happy hour at the Beach Hut Bar. shots anyone?

all smiles after a refreshing smoothie. :)

cover wars: December (local scene)

it's the most beautiful time of the year! :D

so the droolville cover wars have high expectations. hihi. ;)

the December covers should be beautiful too, yes?

Sam Milby & Bea Soriano crowds the cover of Metro this month.

the glossie released two looks for the covers. 

this is very brave of Mega!

i love, love, love Solenn Heusaff's pixie! :)

i love Sky Ferreira so i love this ish, no connect to the cover?

ANTM British Invasion winner Sophie Sumner is this month's Meg cover girl.

*drum roll*

of course, the last spot [winner] goes to Rogue with the very

pretty in print Lovi Poe. i get why she's editorial favorite. :)

Mesa at the Boracay Regency

remember me telling you here how sometimes it gets crazy

deciding where to eat in Boracay? well, here's one more

joint to try! :) i hope this helps even a little. haha. :P

but if you're one rich girl who stays in the more upscale hotels and never

leaves the hotel grounds, you might wanna read something else. ;)

Mesa is a high-end modern Filipino restaurant from the Lamesa Grill group

owned by Kiko Pangilinan. it is housed at the Boracay Mandarin. so

basically i'm not talking about the Greenbelt branch in Manila. ;)

so anyway, back to Boracay! if you're walking around D'Mall

trying to find a place to eat, you will have to walk towards Station 3

instead and make sure you're not too hungry. :P

baby squids for starters. :)

i swear this has the biggest serving. i just could not remember

how much it was, but it's sulit!

aaahh, the lovely chicken honey patis! ;)

yes, lovely! i am not a chicken person, especially if the

skin is not crispy-fried, because i don't know how to eat chicken

the proper way. i always waste a third of the edible part.

but! this is the first time i ate chicken to the last bit of meat!

it's that good! :D i have even been hopelessly trying to cook this at home. ;)

another one of their specialties is the sisig in a pouch. :)

 don't forget to try the crispy tilapia. :)

sunshine state on Cosmopolitan

Megan McNierny for Cosmopolitan as photographed by

rain chasing in Boracay

these are extremely overdue photos frogs & rats.

but shall post for history's sake. heehee. ;)

this was from my last Boracay trip in July which is a really

rainy month thus the rain chasing. :) it did rain but mostly during

the night when all everybody's doing is sleeping off all the booze

from happy hour. ;) a little warning though, these are random photos. :)
