Z Loft Affair + Postura Day 6

Had an eventful Saturday when I attended a makeup workshop (with ze Marj Sia) early afternoon, and then proceeded to ZALORA Philippines' (a new hip online shopping site) headquarter after for the Style Buy Blogger Challenge! Both were equally fun and memorable! :) Here's what happened at the Z Loft where we had a fabulous time shopping, eating and camwhoring to death (lol). But first what I wore...

Thrifted top & skirt, Jhajing belt, Jellybean wedges

custom made Martina Martina necklace, Anagon wire name ring

from Supersale bag, custom made Bubbles bracelet

Chose my underused red wedges from Philippine clothing brand Jellybean and custom made accessories from Martina Martina, Anagon and Bubbles!:) So many amazing local online shops if you just look close enough! Pinoy Pride!:)

Here are the rest of the photos!

My shopping cart! Can you see what I bought?:)

Ensembles top and babydoll oxford flats!

Shopping at Zalora was as easy as 1-2-3! It's so easy it scares me coz it's really a wallet burner. Lols.

After a few minutes... a delivery for me! Hihi. Can I just say, I love the packaging! So shushal.

Like Christmas morning! Haha

just one of the many shoes I saved on my wishlist!

So we were asked to browse through the site to get first hand experience of what Zalora online shopping is all about. It didn't disappoint! It took less than 30 minutes to purchase what was on my wishlist and have it delivered to me. Quick, efficient, convenient. Just the way I like it. :) We then wore our purchases and took photos for the Style Buy contest. :)

Bloggers with the Zalora team. Thanks for the awesome experience!:)

Now, don't say I didn't warn you 'coz even browsing could be sinful! It's so addicting! It's truly a one-stop shop where you can shop your favorite brands. They have a wide range of products-- dresses, tops, shoes, accessories --which you can buy from the comfort of your homes or office desk and have it delivered to you in 3 hours. Wow db?? :) They even have different modes of payment to cover all bases-- Gcash, Bank deposits, Paypal and Cash on Delivery! Now that's what I call top quality customer service. Go ahead, try it, I know you want to!:)

So that's what all those tweeting are all about! Last Thursday, BENCH gathered a few bloggers and their ambassadors at M Cafe, Greenbelt to further divulge what their amazing new campaign/project is all about. Everyone was all ears as the Bench team explained the wonderful news. We are all for this life changing campaign, we support!:)

The Postura Project: Day 4, Leopard

Please forgive the haggardness! This is what I wore to a meeting with Converse and a focus group discussion with Maybelline last week. I feel so professional. Haha chos. Making it my 4th Postura look!

Cinderella top, PINKaholic shorts, SM belt

Handmade detachable collar from BEDAZZLE

Looking for Lola leopard bangle, Cotton On bangle, Esprit watch

Parisian wedges

So, I'm not sure if these Parisian wedges were made in the Philippines or imported. Help? Hehe. But the highlight of my whole look is my new detachable collar made by Cat of local online store BEDAZZLE herself. I love how she used 2 different prints. :)

can't help but notice this table inside Converse's office

Converse meeting!

I then headed to Maybelline's office afterwards for a focus group discussion with their marketing team with some blogger friends! It was a nice experience and we reviewed their new campaign. Watch out for that!

Thank you Maybelline!
