Nostalgia at Rose's Blog

100 YEARS OF PHILIPPINE INDEPENDENCE …. 12 years ago … for the first and the last time I was able to wear an Imeldific-look,(in blue terno) naks! This was during the celebration of the Philippine Centennial 12 years ago. This look worth all the gripping and the holding of breath,

I won an Alvaro Jimenez painting during the event raffle, gallery worth during that time P48K, now, I wonder how much this painting cost. All of the pieces exhibited during that time were painted on dried banana skin and so this one.



I missed wearing body hugging clothes, seems like somebody would be committing a sin mocking me at my back seeing me in this outfit now.

Anyway, can’t think of something more to write, just came from a three-hour straight lecture… jocks, dried throat, dried brain ……

See you again next week at Rose’s Nostalgic Marveling.

  9. The national costume of the Philippines is unmistakable. I'm sure you can still fit, maybe with a little re-sizing ;-)
