Ate’s childhood friend, Isabella, officially turned 18 last saturday, and she asked my Jana to be one of her 18 sparklers. (Yes, times have changed. Iba-iba na ang pakulo sa debut ngayon!)
 |
| LUMIERE NOUVEAU (New Light) Wishing you a very happy 18th birthday, dearest Isabella!!! <3 Hoping your party was a really happy one, The kind that you’ll remember long after it has gone. Because it’s a special time & it holds such promise for you, Of a really wonderful day, and a FUN-tastic lifetime too! |
The sparklers were asked to come in neon cocktail dresses. Neon is really too much for ate’s dusky complexion haha, baka hindi na sya makita. So we asked Ann Chavez of PLUMA for her opinion & we all agreed on the color bright orange with a dash of fuschia as a pop of color. Kamag-anak na ng neon yun! 😉

| Two perfectionists corroborating head on. 😉 |
 |
| What they came up with. |
 |
| Embroidered wings on mesh cloth at the back. |
 |
| Materials & color they chose. |
I got the wing idea from this photo. Ate has lost a lot of weight & I just know that she’ll pull off this shmexy look..
 |
| Ooh-la-la! <3 |
After a couple of fittings, her tita Ann finally got it to the perfect fit & sent it over the other night. Ate is a perfectionist by nature so “pwede na” is not in her vocabulary. Dapat “it’s perfect” lagi. Which is good. I never want her to settle in life. I strive to give her the best in everything every time so she should maintain her standards. Especially in choosing men. (sana matagal pa!)
 |
| Ate’s WINGS! <3 |
 |
| So as to not make it look costume-y, her tita Ann wrapped the wings around her sides para may drama kahit naka-side view! 😛 |
Isabela’s giveaway is sooo cute! She had Made in Candy personalize her name.
 |
| They make custom candies for minimum order of 200 small bottles or 100 of the big ones. http://www.facebook.com/MadeInCandyPhilippines?fref=ts |
And here is ate’s lovely gown (Don’t be intimidated by Pluma’s sosi name. This custom-made dress costs less than 10k).

Happy happy Birthday, dearest Isabella. <3 Thank you for being such a great friend to my Jana all these years. May you have many more happy years of friendships & girly bondings & intense heart-to-hearts to come. We love you!! :-*

July 11, 2013 at 11:12 amAwww! I feel so kilig for getting featured in your blog, Tita! Hehehe LOVED Jana's dress! You may not know this but orange is my second favorite color (and my favorite color when Jana and I first became friends)! The fact that Jana's dress had my top 2 favorite colors in it makes me love it even more! ♥ Thank you for letting Jana come to my party, Tita! Hope she had a blast! ♥
