Madison & 5th

Guess where I went? Before starting a full day of shopping (again), I dragged my mom to Central Park to take a few photos for my blog. I think I’ve been here when I was a kid but I don’t really remember. I wish we have parks like this in Manila! Central Park is HUGE.

What I wore–blindingly bright summer colors! New York was scorching hot last month. I was really feeling the summer season! I wanted to make the most out of it because the rainy season has already arrived in Manila.

With a colorful outfit like this, I’m quite hard to miss haha! While shopping at Barneys, there’s even a lady who pointed me out to her husband/boyfriend to prove how pretty color blocking is. Why thank you, lady. She must’ve thought I couldn’t understand English since she didn’t really make an effort of lowering her voice as I shopped for pretty shoes nearby. From what I gathered (har har, eavesdropping), she wanted to buy these pretty bright green heels and her husband/boyfriend was wondering how or where she can wear them. Pfft. Men.

Zara top

Extreme Finds necklace

SM Accessories cuff | Balenciaga bag

ZARA belt

Puzzle (I.T.) flats

H&M pants

After a quick stroll around the park, it was finally time to shop again!

Looky, the prettiest Apple store I’ve seen so far!

My goal: to visit all the major department stores. First stop, Bergdorf Goodman.

Other stores we visited were Lord & Taylor, Bloomingdales, Henri Bendel, Saks and my favorite, Barneys. It was really good timing that we were there on the 4th of July. So many brands were on sale! ATTACCCCCCKKKKKKKKKK!

Of course, like in most of my travel posts, let’s not forget the food. We looked for a restaurant around the Hell’s Kitchen area after our full day of shopping. I was craving for Japanese (my favorite cuisine) and Google recommended Blue Ribbon Sushi Bar & Grill.

I looooooove Japanese mushroom dishes. This one is really good!

Care for some chicken? The wasabi gravy sauce is really delicious!

How about some gindara?

Now, I’m sure I left you craving for Japanese. :)

    Hi Camille I’m an instant fan here!

    I really admire you not only because your style is sophisticated but also because you were a good student. I am really stuck in this dilemma whether I should invest my savings to MBA or for starting up my own business. I am just a fresh IT graduate, currently working in the IT Industry, and I am ambitious enough to enter the business world. I need some advice. Thanks in advance :D

      Hi Ina! Thank you! I don’t think I’m the best person to give you advice since I don’t know your situation fully. Hmm I think it’s better to work a few years first before getting an MBA. With your work experience + MBA, you’ll have the tools to start your own business after :)

    Hi Camille! I would like to tell you that. You and Ms. Kryz Uy.. influence and inspire me.. to the highest extent! I thank you for every single thing that you and Kryz do because they really make me do impossible things possible. My life was very very boring back then.. But, you two introduced me to fashion! I just can’t thank you enough because I think you guys, changed my life. Seriously. Parang ako lang yung boring na girl dati sa mga kaibigan ko, walang magawa parati lol. and btw without Candy Magazine, I would never have found you haha! Sorry for exaggerating. Di ko lang talaga maiwasan. I just adore you Ms. Camille! More power to your blog! God bless ♥

    Hi Camille! :) Your blog is my favorite along with your friend, Kryz Uy! Both of you definitely have such great styles. Anyway, when you travel, do you plan your outfits before going to your destination or do you just grab clothes and plan it when you’re there? Haha I just wanted to ask. :-)
