Yesterday marked the second week since I had my operation, and I "celebrated" by opening another investment account.
I was supposed to just open a new savings account but an info-graphic on BPI's counter enticed me. One of the tellers gave me and my Aunt Jean more details and so I happily opened a BPI-PHILAM insurance-investment account. I wish I started a long time ago, but it's good that I'm doing it now rather than later.
We had to ride a tricycle and walk a bit to go to the bank and back home but I felt too tired and my wounds hurt after. I was advised that even if the wounds have healed outside, my insides are still healing and I should continue resting until it heals completely. That means I had to beg off my engagements this weekend: Project Vanity's 10th Anniversary Event on Saturday and the BDJ Women's Summit 2018: Women Redefined on Sunday. :(
BUT you do have the chance to go to the BDJ Women's Summit to be held at the Samsung Hall in SM Aura this Sunday because I am giving away five pairs of free passes to the event!
A huge chunk of the work that the Belle de Jour team does is geared towards building a community of empowered women. As part of this support system, they regularly hold women empowerment events. This year they aim to inspire, empower, and equip more Filipinas, especially millennials, with empowering messages on how they can find one’s true self and lead an authentic life.
In celebration of Women’s Month 2018, they are holding the 3rd BDJ Women’s Summit, Women Redefined. Scheduled for March 11th, Sunday, in Samsung Hall, SM Aura from 9AM to 6PM, their Women Redefined Summit has the tentative line-up of speakers and plenary sessions:
They will also partner with NGOs and Women's Advocacy Groups to educate Filipinas on feasible solutions for issues faced by underprivileged women who don’t have access to informative talks. This summit will be attended by at least 500 individuals who are goal-oriented and ready to make a difference.
Do you want to go? It's so simple! If you want to win a pair of passes for you and a friend (and a pair of Summit Kits to go with it), just tell me why you want to go by leaving a comment on this blog post, or by tweeting me, or by letting me know on Instagram, or by sending me a message on my blog's Facebook Page. I will choose five people on Friday morning! I really wish I can join you but I have to heal first. Good luck and have loads of fun on my behalf!

READING
Kevin Kwan's Crazy Rich Asians. I know I know, I'm late to the party, but what a fun read!
LISTENING TO
Remember Me. Congratulations on winning the Academy Award for Best Original Song!
WEARING
Pajamas, all day every day.
THINKING
Of more ways to earn more money. Rebecca Bloomwood (of the Confessions of a Shopaholic fame) said it's either you spend less or earn more. Clearly I can't spend less what with all the dolls and books I need to buy, so I need to earn more.
FEELING
A serious case of FOMO. Resting is good but I kinda miss the daily grind, but I know I have to cherish this long vacation because it will be over soon.
LOVING
My boyfriend. Seriously. I just want to say I really appreciate him for all that he does and I can't be prouder and more blessed that he's my man.
WANTING
To heal soon so I can at least leave the house.
NEEDING
To think of birthday plans. I am turning 32 in less than a month! EEEEP!
WISHING
That I heal completely, without any complications. Going to the hospital is scary, and I don't want another reason to go.
Aaand that's it! Don't forget to join my contest for the BDJ Women's Summit passes! Thank you for reading! ♡

Ask anyone who knows me in person and they'll all agree when I say I get the craziest cravings. (っ˘ڡ˘ς) There's no logic or rhyme when it comes to the range of food I look for; all I know is that when I look for something, I most absolutely have to have it, lest I go like this:

It's good to know that I can get hold of these even without going to the nearest Shakey's store. All I have to do is dial 77-777 OR order online thru www.shakeyspizza.ph using a computer or their mobile site OR tap a few buttons on the Shakey's mobile app, free to download from the Play Store and the App Store! Now I'm ready to create Good Times and Great Memories with my food buddies anytime, anywhere!

Now, while I already have enough makeup to last me until next year (except for lipsticks. I can NEVER get enough lipsticks.), I can surely use more clothes and accessories for my wardrobe. You see, I've been trying to get rid of the clothes I've been wearing since I was in college, but for me to do that I need more clothes to use. LOL. I've been updating my wardrobe with clothes from SM Woman and Zalora and I want more. My wish list is populated with these pieces at the moment:

Pretty, breezy dresses perfect for these hot and humid days |

What did you spend on lately? What are you planning to spend on soon? I'm still eyeing the Batman Visual Dictionary and those darn Batman Moleskines, huhu.
Heads up: the new L'Oreal Paris Color Riche Electric Lip Collection is not for the faint of heart.
Leave your nude, MLBB, and vampy lipsticks at home in the meantime because this summer, BOLD is in.
I will be posting individual swatches of the lipsticks on me but first, I'd like to talk about the formula. I love L'Oreal Color Riche lipsticks because even though L'Oreal is a drugstore brand, its lipsticks never felt cheap. I own and have reviewed several L'Oreal Color Riche lipsticks already (Fairy Touch and Barely Moka are two of my favorites) and I love them because they are non-drying, the colors complement my skin tone, and they feel luxurious to the lips. As for the shades in the Color Riche Electric collection, I'd have to say I got a bit scared when I first saw them in person. The press release wasn't lying when it described the shades as electrifying! My lips can also get a bit dry sometimes so I was worried that the matte shades will look horrible on me. Buuut as the swatches below will prove, I didn't have anything to worry about. The three matte lipsticks (Glamour Fuchsia, Lincoln Rose, Orange Power) are true mattes that are flat but never boring, while the satiny lipsticks (Pop Up Pink, Touch of Amaranth) are more wet and creamy. They are very easy to apply, matte lipsticks included, and do not tug on the lips. The matte lipsticks also tended to stay on a bit longer than the other two.
I tried to take individual photos of the lipsticks but my iPhone couldn't seem to capture the raspberry redness of Lincoln Rose (it looks too orange in the photos) nor the exquisite milky-pink beauty of Pop Up Pink so I decided to forego them and just post my lip swatches. Aside from the L'Oreal Paris Color Riche Electric lipsticks, I wasn't wearing anything else on my face in the photos below so you can see how the lipsticks instantly brightened up my face. But then again, with shades as bold as these, you wouldn't really need to pile on too much. A clean canvas, a Color Riche Electric lipstick, and a simple cat eye and the glam factor would already skyrocket!
Won't you look at that and tell me how gorgeous the color is! This was the color I wore on my birthday. Doesn't it look like the kind of lipstick Barbie would wear? This is my second favorite from the bunch.
I was reminded of raspberries and candy apples when I was testing this out. I had a hard time choosing, but this is my favorite because I have a lot of red lipsticks but I don't have anything like this in my collection. I wore this at the Easter Komiket.
I already have an orange lipstick but it was my first time to try a matte orange lipstick. It's such a unique and fun color that I see myself wearing with my teal eyeliner.
It's a creamy milky pink that may look mild and sweet in this photo but looks more neon in person. This reminded me of OFRA 205 but I liked the formula of this one better. It also looked like a prettier version of MAC Pink Nouveau (that no matter what I did, I couldn't get to work for me so I just gave it away to Kira).
This one reminded me of my favorite MAC Girl About Town. Aside from Glamour Fuchsia, this is another lipstick shade I could imagine Barbie wearing.
You know how some makeup products can "Insta-boost" your mood? These shades are so vibrant they could easily chase all your woes away! When I have any of these shades on, I feel like I want to bust my heels out and take over the world!
These colors last on me for at least five hours. Aside from the highly-pigmented and creamy formula and the outlandishness of these shades, my favorite thing about these Color Riche Electric lipsticks are the fact that they don't settle on my lip lines. Any bold color would look ridiculous if that happens, but you're safe with L'Oreal Paris.
I also liked its elegant rose gold (for the matte shades) and gold (for the satin shades) packaging that doesn't feel flimsy at all. It's also classy enough that you wouldn't feel embarrassed to whip it out for a quick touch-up anywhere you are.
In conclusion, L'Oreal Color Riche Electric lipsticks are lip colors that are ultra-bold, ultra-trendy, yet easily wearable and can instantly brighten up any look. If you're feeling down, all you need is a swipe or two of any of these colors and I SWEAR you will instantly feel better. If you feel intimidated, DON'T! After all, it's just lipstick. ^_~
Now here's the fun part. L'Oreal Paris was so generous to give away Color Riche Electric lipsticks to five of my readers! Check out the widget below.

As I mentioned on a previous post, my whole family would always go to Shakey's in Malabon for celebratory dinner after Recognition Days in school.

Got it? Pick a photo, put the watermark, upload on Instagram with a witty caption and hashtags #ShakeysPizza1954 and #ShakeysXKrissyfied, and get a chance to win! You can even send in as many entries as you want so long it's a different photo each time. If you joined, please leave a comment below with your Instagram name and the link/s of your entries.

Happy Friday/ Pay Day/ Pi Day! I'm in a celebratory mood today because I am going to see Macklemore & Ryan Lewis on Sunday! ヽ(´ー`)ノ
As for my concert ticket giveaway sponsored by SM Accessories, I had a great time reading your comments about your favorite songs from The Heist, and I wish I can give more tickets away but unfortunately I can only choose one winner. So, congratulations Kimberly Camille Tiu! You won a pair of Lower Box B tickets to the Manila leg of Macklemore & Ryan Lewis's Tour! I will email you shortly on how you can claim your prize. :)
Macklemore and Ryan Lewis are set to perform at the Mall of Asia Arena on Sunday, March 16. Pre-party beats will be taken care of by DJ Mars Miranda and Those Damn Nerds! Are you going to the concert, too? Tweet me!
When it comes to music, my favorite genres are alternative, indie-rock, and pop-rock. I am not the biggest fan of hip hop and rap but I do enjoy listening to it every now and then. When Macklemore & Ryan Lewis entered the music scene, everyone including myself took notice. I guess you can't win four Grammy Awards and expect to scoot through life unnoticed heh. Ryan Lewis was also interviewed by DJs Mo Twister, Sam Oh, and Mikey Bustos on the Magic Morning Show about three weeks ago and it struck me how eloquent and humble he was that I found myself wanting to go to the Manila leg of their World Tour even though as I said, I am not a big hip hop/ rap fan. I love going to concerts but I've never been to a hip hop/ rap show so it might be a cool new experience.
Thanks to SM Accessories, I will get the chance to do just that! What an awesome advanced birthday gift! Thanks, guys! And because they are extra generous, one reader of krissyfied.com can also win a pair of Lower Box B tickets to the concert!
Check out the Rafflecopter widget below to join.
This giveaway is open to everyone who will be able to claim the tickets from SM Accessories's office in case they win. The giveaway ends on March 14 and I will announce the winner on the same day. Are you as excited as I am? I hope you are! Big thanks to SM Accessories again!

My earliest memory of being aware about the "magical power" of conditioners to smoothen tresses was when I was about eight or nine. My mother suggested I use the brand new bottle of Cream Silk in the bathroom, and my hair care ritual has never been the same since. These days, I shampoo every other day and condition every day.
It's surreal to know that Cream Silk is older than me by just a couple of years - it's a little disconcerting trying to wrap my head around the fact that this brand has been around for 30 years already! "30 years of limitless possibilities for the Beyond Beautiful Filipina."
To mark this special milestone, Cream Silk invites every Filipina to go Beyond Beautiful with its new commercial starring Heart Evangelista, Sam Pinto and Toni Gonzaga.
The generous folks at Cream Silk and Bridges PR is also offering three of my readers to win special Cream Silk gift packs! One will get a premium limited edition Cream Silk gift pack while two will get the Cream Silk Anniversary pack. To join, check out the mechanics in the Rafflecopter widget below:
