A Woman's Best Friend

Men grow cold as girls grow old,
And we all lose our charms in the end.
But square-cut or pear-shape,
These rocks don't lose their shape
Diamonds are a girl's best friend.

Last time Ma was in town, she and good friend D met up at my office to ogle at the jewelries that my friend D sells and to discuss Ma's own jewels for repair. In the Philippines, it's common to find jewelry suppliers who would sell their precious pieces on soft terms like interest free for 5 months. How could you resist???

No matter how busy I am, when these two ladies meet up, I couldn't help but take 5 from my busy routine and join in on the fun (take note: i just ogled, i didn't buy). Hehehe. Looking at the glowing faces from these two, the glitter in their eyes would put any diamond to shame.

Another pic of Ma with my cousin E, looking at the gems like it was serious business!

  1. Is she the same Lady D who "pushes" vanity to women that include Mamarazzi? :-)

  2. HI PAPARAZZI!
    As another song goes:

    I have simple taste
    I just want a token
    That can't go to waste
    Diamonds...


    Pamana din yan eh, just like a piece of real estate. :D

  5. Nanay ko rin ,..nagbebenta ng jewelries noon kaya kahit paano nakapagsuot din ako ng mamahaling alahas noon.

    These are definitely heirlooms that you can "pamana" to your kids.

  6. HI LEAH!
    Di ba ang galing dahil merong "10 gives"? It makes these jewelries easier to acquire.

    Sayang all my kids are boys, sa apo na girls na lang siguro ipapamana ;)
