I usually bring out my "cold weather" clothes like cardigans and sweaters, but since it still feels like summer in December, I've been wearing a lot of dresses and skirts! —Macy, Web Managing Editor

I normally like wearing black and white pieces but for Christmas, I try to experiment with colors! I like wearing a bright colored party dress or a sequined top with a maxi skirt.

10 Good Deeds Under P100

Christmas season is a time for giving but sometimes, we get so caught up with Christmas shopping and wrapping gifts that we forget there's someone out there who could use a helping hand. This season every Candy girl can give with just a portion of their allowance and we strongly encourage it. Check out 10 things you can do this Christmas season.

Visit Cottolengo Filipino.
Remember when Gerald Anderson played the role of Budoy? He went to an orphanage for mentally-challenged kids called Cottolengo Filipino in Montalban, Rizal and played basketball with the kids. Some of the kids were abandoned. Some were given up by their parents. All are hungry for love. You can pay them a visit to bring them old toys and play with them, too!
Organize a donation drive for typhoon victims.
You and your friends can go through your old stuff and pick out the ones you don't need anymore. There are typhoon victims in need of dry clothes, warm blankets, and footwear this Christmas. If you don't wear them anymore, donate them. You'll have more closet space and you'll help out without spending a dime. If you want to take it up a notch, go door to door in your neighborhood and ask for things they want to donate. There are a lot of foundations you can bring these to but you can also bring all of the stuff you collected to your local government office or the nearest Church.
Be a big sister.
If you are near LRT Santolan station, you can volunteer for CRIBS, an orphanage that houses newborns and toddlers. Spending a few hours with abandoned babies will touch your heart and remind you how blessed you are you have mom and dad. You can even bring old toys instead of letting them gather dust in your room.
For more details, call: 6818078 or 6815921.
Buy a pack of biscuits or chocolate.
Keep them in your bag and the next time street children ask for money, give them food instead. This Christmas, make it a habit to give food instead of loose change to children in the street. It would be better that way instead of giving them money they might spend on the wrong things.
Give Mother Earth some cyber love.
Maybe you once dreamed of becoming a candidate for Miss Earth and be an ambassadress to save our planet but even if you realize beauty pageants aren't your thing, you can still campaign for change without leaving the comforts of home by becoming a Greenpeace(http://...
