GREATNESS STARTS @HOME TRAVEL&FASHION WITH MOMhttp://tattoo.globe.com.ph

What my mom didn’t even notice that my passion for fashion and traveling were the two things I inherited from her. We really both love clothes and we both love to travel the whole world! When I was a kid, I used to see how plenty of clothes she had at home and I told myself that I will never have too much clothes but I guess I was wrong because today, I must say that I’m more addicted than her. I love to say that she has a very good sense for fashion that even on her age of 50, she can still carry wearing sleeveless, skirts, shorts and even plunging tube dress. Yes, she still has a great body and that is one of the things I really want to imitate when I get old. I can still remember how she looks in the mirror, combs her hair, blow-dried it, puts her lipstick and make-ups.

G1: It is so funny how she say that she would only window shop but next thing you know, she already wears it! With that, no wonder I learned from my mommy how to be GOAL ORIENTED.

G2: One good thing about our mother-daughter relationship is that we always share clothes. After she used it, I will be the next one! It’s all about SHARING! Talking about sharing, I’m glad my mom’s always there to share-a-load. Whenever I ran out and wherever I am, she’s always there to provide since we are both GLOBE users. I don’t know what I’m gonna do without her, really.

G3: Even we use the very same outfit, we make sure that we flaunt in our different styles and ways. In this photo, My mom wore a scarf and leggings while I only happened to made it plain and simple. My mom taught me how to SAVE money because she always has been telling me that why not use the old one if you can uniquely style it in your own way. I just have to spice it up or lessen.

G4: My mom and I, we both much love to travel. The only difference was she almost traveled the whole world and I only traveled Asian countries. We both cruise with my dad as he works there as an executive chef for more than 30 years. I love this photo because we both took our pictures with the COSTA cruiseline ship with yes, of course our different poses :) She always gives me tips about about budget and safety traveling.. Here are some.. 1) NEVER EVER LEAVE YOUR PASSPORT 2) TRAVEL WITH LIGHT BAGGAGE 3) DON’T FORGET YOUR SUNBLOCK

With these, I found myself staring at the clouds while I’m at the plane, realizing how much my mother loves me for giving me the opportunities to wander the beautiful world and kissing me goodbye with her tender love and care.

In short, there are 4 things that my mom taught me in connection with this blog.

1) TO BE GOAL ORIENTED

2) SHARE

3) SAVE MONEY

4) TRAVEL TIPS 101

I also added a picture of our magnet collections at home. My mom inspired me to collect magnets wherever I’m going. This international collection always make me proud because not everyone was given the opportunity to work and travel at the same time.

This blog has given me another chance to thank my parents specially mom who has never been tired of me instead giving me all the the luxuries in life. It marked to me that the greatness of things always starts at home when our characters and attitudes were molded by our parents. I always believe in the saying “MAAYOS NA PAGPAPALAKI NG MAGULANG”. This trait can be passed from one generation to another and I can see how powerful it is to be guided by my fashionista and traveler mom since I am FASHION a BLOGGER today who have inspired other young women to be stylish and presentable. The feeling of inspiring and being inspired is a total happiness that this blog is giving me. I also give tips to my friends on how to go here and there with all the knowledge I know about the country or place I’ve been to! Some relatives and friends told me to have my own travel agency and some said that I can be a very good tourist guide. Hihi. By the way, This is the link for my fashion blogging site where I also included the places where it was actually shot http://annedoll.tumblr.com/. Thanks again mommy for sharing and buying me clothes! Thanks for all the traveling stuffs that made me feel ease, comfortable and happy. This march I will be a graduating and soon I will be the one to buy clothes and pay your travel expenses. I love you forever!
