Hi Naomi! I just want to ask, what's the best way to have a perfect 6-pack abs for women? :)

I don’t understand…why me? O_o :))
I don’t have abs yo!
But when I do feel the need to have a “flatter” belly, I combine jogging and HipHopAbs for abouuut…a week :))

No dieting, though.
I don’t do well with diets :))

Blouse: thrifted
Skirt: also thrifted (amazing, isn’t it?!)
Shoes: SM Solemate

Sunday is probably the only day I look forward to every week.
Most teenagers/young adults would prefer Friday or Saturday ‘cause they get to go out and party or chill with friends, but I don’t have that privilege :))

On Sundays, I get to dress up ‘cause my family always go out on Sundays like clockwork. Reasons being: 

  1. My dad needs to restock on his cigs (chain smokerrr).
  2. We like eating fancy food once in a while.
  3. Grocery! Candies and chocolates,and instant ramen haul!
  4. Everyone’s craving for Mochiko (I swear, weall have our signature favorites, even Dad).

Anywhoo, I was rummaging through my closet for stuff to wear, and I remembered I only wore this skirt ONCE. So I took it out and tried finding a top that would —uhh, cooperate with my… in-between-waxes a.k.a. growing out situation with my underarms (girls will know what I mean lol ).

I was only experimenting, and somehow, it worked!
Paired it with gladiator sandals,not wedges or heels, because then the dress would look shorter and my silhouette wouldn’t look as long or as tall

Lastly, I grabbed a sling bag to put my phone and iTouch in (that’s all I ever bring anyway, plus lipbalm). Kept it small and simple ‘cause I already looked a little bulky.

Lookbook Saturdays: You’re Never Too Old For Prom!
Going as someone’s date to prom as a favor for a friend. Styled this multi-way dress on my own. The brooch was a nice touch, don’t you think?

DIY Fridays: Basic Bleaching and Dyeing How-To

Ombre shorts, acid-wash jeans, and pastel colored tops are all the rage this summer, but these can cost a fortune. Save a few bucks by getting creative and doing it yourself!

Disclaimer:
The procedures below are from personal experience and research. :)

What you’ll need:

  • Bleach (for bleaching, of course)
  • Powder dye (available at National Bookstore or craft specialty stores, even the grocery store!)
  • Garment to be dyed
  • Hot water
  • Basin (large enough for the garment)
  • Gloves (because the dye WILL stain your hands)
  • Salt or vinegar (optional)

image

Bleaching Procedure:

  1. Rinse the garment first. Make sure it’s entirely wet.  
  2. Mix equal parts of bleach and water. 
  3. Soak the garment. Watch it from time to time to see how light you want the garment to be.
  4. Rinse the garment and hang to dry.

Dyeing Procedure:

  1. As with bleaching, rinse the garment first. This helps the dye adhere to the cloth better than immersing it while dry. 
  2. Fill the basin with enough water to completely immerse the garment.
  3. Dissolve 2-3 sachets of powder dye in a cup of hot water. Slowly add this to the basin, mixing the garment as you pour. 
  4. Let it soak. 
  5. When desired color is achieved, rinse with water until clear. 
  6. Hang to dry.
