an afternoon with Madge Lejano
Date : Sept 23, 2005Sept 23, 2005 was our scheduled shooping day with Madge. Being our MUA, she offered na samahan daw nya kami magshopping para sa attire namin sa aming prenup... bongga di ba :) we're gonna be having our prenups at LaLuz beach resort in San Juan, Batangas so dapat beach beach ang suot.. hehehe..
We met at around 3:30pm in SM megamall.. sa SM dept store kami magshopping since aside from limited ang budget, madami daw great finds dun :D nagkita kami nila madge sa may cosmetics area and from went straight to the Mens section. Her concept for me was a colorful shirt with matching linen drawstring pants.
Una, naghanap kami ng pants but medyo minalas at walang nakitang drawstring pants... Madge said just to bring a khaki pair of pants or kung may time pa e maghanap daw ako ng drawstrings. So yun, we then went to find a shirt or two (para daw may change costume).. ikot ikot .. tingin tingin.. and voila! nakakita ang lola mo ng striped green and orange shirt.. I was like "eyowwwwwww.. that is SOOO NOT me!!" hehehe.. I've been used to wearing earth colors lately.. tones on brown, dark green, gray ba.. and of course the usual safe colors like blue, black, and white.. talagang hindi ko kinaya yung pinakita nyang polo nung una but she said to trust her.. naggoglow daw ako!.. yeah right?!?! hehehe .. so sabi ko "sige na nga.. reputasyon mo naman ang nakasalalay dyan :D".. mura din naman yung polo so kahit ibenta ko sa ukay ukay pagkatapos ng shoot para mabawi ko naman yung ginastos ko haha
One polo down, one more to go.. hanap hanap ulit.. tingin tingin... at ayun, may nakitang white long sleeves with red and orange dahon design sa harap (hirap idescribe.. hehehe).. eto, medyo ok ok naman at wala naman akong masyadong objections :-D eto, kahit paano masusuot ko... or at least hindi ako mahihiripan mag isip masyado kung isusuot ko hehehe
After nabili na ang aking wardrobe, we then proceeded to buy Karen's wardrobe.. sa SM pa din syempre :) We went straight to the Ladies apparel and first on top of the list was a skirt.. Madge found the "in" thing right now.. that is, the gypsy-type of skirt.. yun bang "panglaba" (with matching planggana na parang tansan na malaki.. remember those?) according to the saleslady as Karen was trying to fit the skirt haha.. syempre hindi din choice ni Karen yung skirt pero may magagawa pa ba kami :D After the skirt, bumili lang sila ng orang shirt and that was it...tapos na ang shopping.
ay, hindi pa pala :D We still had to buy yung request ni Madge.. that is, we both wear white slippers. Since maaga pa at wala naman kaming gagawing 3 (Madge had a "date" that night, pero 7pm pa), we went around Megamall to look for slippers.... syempre, ano ba ang "in" ngayon as far as slippers are concerned???? H A V A I A N N A S! Bale wala ang natipid namin sa pagshopping sa SM di ba? hahaha.. di bale, on budget naman kami kahit bumili kami ng havaiannas kaya sige na nga, minsan lang naman magkaron ng ganito :D Wala kaming nakita sa megamall dahil walang sizes yung store na pinuntahan namin so sabi ni Madge sa Shangrila daw meron.. so off we went to Shangrila.. walang magawa di ba? hihi Nakisabay na kami kay Madge papuntang Shangrila on his trusted van (incindentally she calls it Karen) and went straight to Chocolate to buy the flip flops.. sinuwerte naman at may sizes :)
After buying the tsinelas, nagdinner na kami since mga 630 na din yun. We ate at this Pinoy restaurant inside Shangrila (nakalimutan ko na pangalan :) ) and ordered sisig, pinakbet, fried squid at syempre plain rice. Kain kain, chika chika. Grabe, sangkatutak ang chika ni madge... buti na lang at madaldal sya kasi mga tahimik kaming tao (as if?! hehehe).. dami nyang kwento, from her wedding experiences, work experiences, pati mga kwentong buhay :) Never a dull and quiet moment talaga with her. As the cliche goes - parang matagal mo syang kilala at friend.. hehehe.
