Gorgeous Gowns & Dazzling Dresses by Missacc

Every girl or a woman loves to dress-up. When we were a child, we loved to play a Barbie doll. We loved to change her dress and comb her hair. It is a woman's form of expression that exudes our personality. Choosing a style for different occasion makes us stand out. Below, are the dresses and gowns that we loved to wear once in our lifetime.

 

Prom Dress

Prom is one of the major events that happened in our lives. In normal ways, a prom dress is a formal or semi-formal attire. During my teen days, it smells like freedom, to choose what I want to wear, though. I can hear whispers of excitement from my mates about a ball gown prom dresses they want to wear. After all, this is our time to shine. So, we want to look and feel amazing. Like the above photo - a dreamy princess ball gown with an off-shoulder collar draping prom dress. It has a lace up on its back or a simple yet elegant look of an A-Line one shoulder sleeveless floor-length prom dress.


Evening Gowns

Nothing captures beauty like an evening gown. Women wear them during dinners or or formal occasions, as the name says. The evening gowns and prom dresses comes in different types of designs. Yet, they all have a long drop of hemlines, tight corset lines, and low necklines. Usually, the fabrics made are chiffon (which I had worn myself in my graduation ball) and satin. Added materials used in fabrics are sequins, beads and lace for a touch of elegance and splendor. 

 

Mother's Bride Dress
The mother of the bride plays an important role. She acts as the host and spend time greeting guests and family visitors.  In our tradition, a mother of the bride dresses are formal long or short dresses. The style depends on her if she wants to look simple but elegant or  wear in a luxurious dress that catches the eye.  Needless to say, it should match the weddings color or theme. Anyway, no matter what they choose at this special occasion, I'm sure they looked great!

Here's a bit of story. My little brother married last November 2024. Since, our mother is in heaven, he asked our cousins (three sister) to be the hosts of the party. My cousins wore short-white dress, below the knee with a bit of sequence that shines bright.

Creative Ways To Make Your Holidays Memorable

gift giving, memorable holidays

There is so much love about the holidays. The smiles are warmer. The kids are better behaved. The meals are more gourmet, and the treats, sweeter. Distant relatives are nearer, and that place called work seems just a little farther away.

Things To Do Before You Travel

Whenever my husband and I decide for a family holiday, I make sure we plan ahead of time. There are important things to look into. Since we will close the shop, we have to ask permission from the owner. Likewise, if you work in the office, you have to file a leave of absence. Although, there are things to do and think about before going to travel.

Visiting Ilog Maria

Last month, we had a chance to visit “Ilog Maria” while staying in Cavite. I heard them talking about “magpatusok”  or bee sting in English. I asked what’s the fuss is all about? My brother, Jun told me that he’s going to Ilog Maria for  BST. I asked what’s BST? He said, “BST means Bee Sting Therapy” wherein a bee will sting any part of your body that has an ailment. I’ve never heard of such thing but all I can imagine was the pain when a bee stings you. Also, he warned us not to shout or cry in pain. Instead, try to bite your lower lip to refrain from shouting. The man who gives you the therapy will get angry.

That’s my youngest brother on the wheels. The five of us including my son had accompanied my brother to Ilog Maria. It took us only 15 minutes drive away from my cousin’s place before we saw a signboard of Ilog Maria. Ilog Maria is in Silang, Cavite. From the highway, we drove to a one-way entrance. Most of the visitors of Ilog Maria were in a private car. There’s nothing to worry about the exit because there’s another one-way road especially for it.


When we arrived, my brother told us to go to a building where a lot of people gather. Geez, I’m glad my niece has a camera and loves to take pictures. My cell phone with camera wasn’t fixed, yet. We saw a lot of people, foreigners and Filipinos sit on the chairs in 3 lines while others were standing and sharing stories. Then, I saw a man seated on a chair near a pillar holding the bee’s wings on the right hand. In front of him is a client/patient (foreigner) who had a problem in the knee. The foreign woman just squirms and bite her lips when the bee stung. Then, the man told her to walk. I guess to savor the pain of the sting and exercise it. My brother had the bee stung on his left foot.

After my brother had the BST and “walking” exercise, we went to another building to see the products of Ilog Maria.

After Ilog Maria, we decided to go to People’s Park in Tagaytay. Sad to say, we didn’t have a chance to go up because of the thick fog. Kuya Rene noticed we’re the only one’s who have no jackets. We end up taking pictures and buying sweet pineapples.
