^^mag-layering kayo....kung makakabili ka ng heattech sa uniqlo bili ka din. Laging 2 shirts suot ng kids ko! hehe tapos light sweater & jacket. So far it works naman....except nung time na umuulan at sobrang baba ng temp.napabili kami ng winter jackets at boots ng di oras.hehe

[sarsingkit]

I think Marks and Spencer has good thermal clothes lalo na mga panloob like plain longsleeves and leggings. Ok lang sakin malamig basta wag masyado marami ang snow.

[gorgeous_me]

^^ayan nga inuna ko, yung heattech...hehe, yung mga outer layer, sa mura mura na muna ako bumili, tipid mode, lol

^ok sana yung sa marks and spenser, kaso malaki ang size, lol..petite kasi ako


mga sisies, kapag nasa office kayo, like ganyan, may thermal kayo di ba, pano kapag sa office, mainit na don, outer layer yung tatanggalin, how about yung thermal? (parang hassle lang, hehe)..baka sobrang init naman kapag may thermal tapos nagwwork ka, hehe

[lonelymiss28]

About wearing thermal sa office. Its a matter of getting used to it. Most offices here naman casual lang din suot nila like slack, blouse, not unless big bosses. Suggestion ko sa papunta rito na tag lamig na if may mabibili kayong mumurahin na thermal lang muna bilhin kasi pang ilalim lang yan, basta mairaos nyo lang isang winter ok na, dahil after christmas super mura mga thermal dito branded/non branded even winter coat etc, boxing day dito halos lahat mura so dun na lang kayo mag splurge. For mittens, i buy it at dollarama kasi madaling mawala pero di ka manghihinayang kasi mura lang. For socks naman sa pinas kayo bumili. I dunno pero ang PANGIT ng socks dito. Even the branded ones di pa rin maganda. If may alam kayong magandang brand ng socks here let me know, gusto ko yung makapal na mahaba.

^ i buy my socks sa Walmart. Get the kodiak brand. Super favorite ko for tall boots. iba iba ang thickness nya eh. may manipis, may medium, may super kapal naman for winter boots. $10 lang for 2 pairs. yung pinakamakapal gamit ko nung nag -27 last year

di ako natutuwa sa thermals dito, lalo na pag pang office. nagpapabili pa ko ng Uniqlo dyan kasi ang nipis nya and nice tingnan under a blouse or long sleeve shirt, para kang may cami sa loob. Kupas kupas na yung ginamit ko last year kasi halos araw araw ko suot hehe. So the best for me is Uniqlo. Pag i-convert mo from PHP to CAD, and if dollar earner ka, mura na. And effective.

Disclaimer: I live in Ontario. Baka kailangan ng mas makapal for those living/will live in Alberta/Manitoba

[sarsingkit]

Me living in Manitoba so ganito ang attire pag mga peak ng kalamigan like mga -30degC and below.
For tops: Blouse + Cardigan + Fleece Jacket + Winter Jacket
Bottom: Thermal leggings + Slacks.
Shoes: Winter Boots with socks. I buy my socks at Walmart too. Normal socks lang. Yung hanggang middle ng legs.
Accessories: Gloves and Scarf. I wear toque pero minsan lang or pag malakas hangin.

Pagdating ng office, I remove the Fleece and Winter Jacket minsan hubad din Cardigan Lalo na pag naglakad sa labas kasi maiinitan ka bigla pag pasok ng office. Sometimes, I remove my leggings din sa washroom pag naiinitan talaga ako. Kaya pag uwian na, mga 15 minutes before nagpeprepare na ako. kasi ang dami pa susuotin. And I have office shoes sa ilalim ng desk saka blazer nakasabit sa upuan. Everyone is the office has a full wardrobe sa kanya kanyang cabinet. Lol.

Pero last year, hindi masyado malamig dito and hindi ma-snow. Mga 5 times lang the whole winter ako nag leggings. And By the way, pakiramdam ko mas warm ang slacks kesa jeans.

[lonelymiss28]

^^I will try that brand. I buy my socks and underwear sa pinas. Mas gusto ko yung quality and tela. For socks talaga lahat ng nabibili ko hindi ko gusto, for underwear ang binibili ko lang la senza modal and aerie Boybrief. About thermal wear, I use leggings instead kasi di sya masyadong mainit and bulky underneath, not unless Nasa labas ako for a long time. For outerwear nga pala, Try kijiji.ca may nabili akong canada goose na brand for $100, north face for $30 and all brand new with tags.

[Vans]

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

[lonelymiss28]

^^yung frind ko nakatira sa  ginagamit airport service na bus. $50.00 bayad if im not mistaken. Mas mura daw kasi kesa taxi. Ihahatid ka mismo sa bahay mo.

Anyone here following MLB? Go Blue Jays!

[rics]

^Blue Jays won!

[ri-anne]

Grabe pala following dito ng Blue Jays no? Even my kids know them na, pano minsan pag may game, ine-encourage ng teachers yung kids to wear Blue Jay shirts to school! Or kung wala, any blue or white shirt, as a sign of support.
kaya tuloy when my kids learned Blue Jays won, ang saya din nila eh "wooohhooo!!" Hahahha kala mo nanonood kami ng baseball eh

[rics]

In our office we were encouraged to wear blue to support the Jays.
Nag set up pa ng snacks sa lunch room for those who would like to stay and watch the game.

[sarsingkit]

Blue Jays gear din kami last week pero Hockey season started na so you know Hockey tops anything and everything. Hehe. My husband and I do not follow NHL as much as MLB so I am still on Blue Jays high. Yankee fan yung asawa ko eh kay booo sya sa kin. Hehe.

[sarsingkit]

Mga sis na matagal na sa Canada, can you enlighten me on how fast the PM acts on his platform? One of the immigration policy changes of Liberal is to give more points to Siblings sa Express Entry Program and changing the dependent age from 19 back to 22. Now that they won, what do you think is the percentage that this will actually be implemented?

And go Blue Jays! Grabe hindi ako nakapag aral kagabi dahil sa Election at sa Blue Jays.
