My affiliate site partner, The Jewel Hut, is holding a big jewelry sale (up to 50% off!) and I just couldn’t take my eyes off these heavily discounted and beautifully crafted designs in silver and gold from their selection:

From Hot Diamonds’s Shade of Spring Collection – Flower Shaped Studs.  Made of Sterling Silver with Rose Gold Plating.  Perfect summer earrings!

DE289 0652068-329396

Blue Lapis Lazuli stones bead together to form this elegant necklace from Kit Heath. At its centre sits a delicately wrought, gold plated rose pendant.  Buy it here!

90211LP007 0810126-330388

Beautiful, modern flower motifs dance along an open-link chain in this fresh, funky, brilliant-cut diamond-set bracelet called Echo Flowers.  Another delightful jewelry from Hot Diamonds.

DL140 0651007-221697

This magnificent bracelet with loop style links and double heart charm design in sterling silver is designed for children up to 10 years but am sure it’ll fit us too!  It reminds me so much of the charm bracelet from Links of London.   But this one’s way cheaper!

I love the daisy details on this sterling silver, gold-plated stackable ring.  From Daisy Jewerly – a jewelry brand that was inspired by the humble English daisy, and has since expanded into a full collection of designs inspired by nature and all that is quintessentially English.

The Jewel Hut Sale is on for a limited time only so if you find anything you like from my picks above, get it now before it sells out!    Check out the complete selection on sale here for more of these lovely items on sale.

Unfortunately, the Philippines is not among the countries that The Jewel Hut regularly dispatches items to.   Our next best option then is Johnny Air – which is the only shipping service company in Manila that provides speedy and reliable delivery of  packages between the US and the Philippines.

Late Post: Mandaue Foam’s Decore Galore

March 2, 2013 by Leave a Comment

Note:  I’m supposed to post this the other day but forgot all about it!   

I always look forward to the sale events of Mandaue Foam because the discounts are really huge.   It was through one of their sale events that AJ and I were able to buy our sofa, accent chairs and dining set for our apartment.

Since I was in Cebu last week and my brother Dino and sis-in-law Juvvy,  both based in Cebu, are  in the thick of moving into their new home, they asked me to accompany them to  Mandaue Foam (Banilad Branch) to check out the sale and help them with furniture-shopping.

Oh boy, I was so happy to be here!

P1070514b

P1070516b

The first thing we saw was this cute ottoman chair that’s on sale from P6,000 to P2,000!   I asked Dino and Juvvy to snap it up before it’s sold!   The fabric print is so cool to the eyes and is perfect for their all-white home.  The round wooden plate is where you can place magazines, telephone or books.   It can also be used as additional seat  – just put a seat cover on it!

P1070518b

I like these Louis Chairs in dark wood + suede fabric materials.   They’re not on sale (P3,900.00 each) but they’re still way affordable for a French-style furniture!

P1070525b

Lovely study/computer table in deep dark wood color that’s perfect for any work-at-home mom or dad or simply as a work desk/library at home.    The price tag?  Only P12,000!

P1070527b

Animal chairs at P500.00 each.

P1070529b

I fell in love with this white glass-tempered dining table with  French-style dining chairs.  Simply  gorgeous!   And what’s more, it’s on sale at 30% (discounted to P29,400).

P1070532b

Dino preferred this white tempered glass table with black leather dining chairs.   Also discounted at 30% with net price tag of P15,400.00.   There are just a few cracks on the table but they’re all concealable.

P1070536b

Dining table with a glass top and modern wood base.   This design is to be phased out already so it’s on sale at P7,000!

P1070539b

Another modern wooden table on big sale – only P9,800 for this one which boasts of thick wood as its table top.

P1070543b

Juvvy liked this shabby chic dining set on sale at P11,400.00.

P1070545b

The couple weren’t able to pick the perfect dining set for their new home yet because the space for their dining area requires a round table instead of a rectangular one.    But we had fun looking at all those on sale!

Moving on to the other sections of the showroom, I found these:

Shabby chic atelier dresser (regularly priced at P13,000).

P1070548b

Lights chandelier with lamp covers.   I wish our apartment had a high ceiling!   I really want this!   And why not – the price tag is only P6,200!    Super affordable!

P1070551b

If you’re looking for some dramatic lights for your favorite corner at home, you may want this lamp with dropped crystals in descending shapes (small to big).   It gives an illusion of a high ceiling, too.     The price?  Only P8,000!

P1070554b

Too bad the Decore Galore sale ended yesterday.   If you are interested in some of the items above, I encourage you to call Mandaue Foam (Banilad, Cebu Branch) at (032) 232 2982  to see if the items are still available and maybe they can work out a way for you to still get discounts.   Their staff are very friendly and accommodating.

Check out the official website of Mandaue Foam for more of their products, and their official Facebook page for the latest sale events, branch openings and new furniture designs.

Shopbop Bag Sale!

February 17, 2013 by Leave a Comment

shopbop sale

The luxury online store, Shopbob.com, is on sale ladies and the bags are discounted big time from 30% to 50%!   Below are some of the bags that I liked:

Anya Hindmarch Coal Tiny Tim Tote   anya_BagThis is the perfect tote bag for people who brings work to anywhere – like me hehe!    It has a large carryall shape, top zip closure and lots of small pockets for those stuff that should be within easy reach from you.      The only downside with this otherwise perfect tote bag is the lack of shoulder strap.  It has to be hand-carried, or placed in the elbow joint at the most, especially if you’re carrying files.

Chestnut Tote with Shoulder Strap from See by Chloe

Now this one does not only provides hand handles but a shoulder strap as well.  Nothing is left to be desired in the bag’s structure which has resembles a doctor’s bag, but much more feminine.    I like, like this one.

Anya Hindmarch Sparkling Onyx, Sapphire, and Emerald Crinkle Ebenezer Bag

anya_bag_3

Another bag-to-have from Anya Hindmarch.   The colorblock is perfect and they’re all lucky colors for this Year of the Snake!

Black and Camel Calf Hair Clutch from Valentino

You cannot go wrong with this classic envelope shape for a clutch bag.   Only the timeless styles from Valentino.

The Shopbop Sale will run until the 18th only so check it out now.   They ship to the Philippines.  You may read the delivery conditions and shipping costs here.

Shopping Loot from Homeworld’s Warehouse Sale

November 25, 2012 by Leave a Comment

This is not the first time that we’ve been to Homeworld’s Bodega Sale.  The first time was last year and we found so many bargain items there for our apartment.

So when I saw this announcement posted at my Facebook page we got so excited at what we’re gonna find this time.

Compared to the sale last year, there were fewer items included in this year’s sale and most of the items on sale were bedsheets.   We were looking forward to finding chinaware and tea sets at big discounts but there were so few of them to choose from (so very unlike last year).

Despite that, we still ended up filling up our shopping baskets with these:

We bought plenty of these memory pillows that are on a buy 1-take 1 promo.  Perfect as gifts to those who savor sleeping (like me hehe!)

These designer throw pillow cases were on sale at only P50.00 a piece.   Can’t believe my luck when I saw these.  All of them, except the one in the bottom, were made from velvet fabric.

The Lock & Lock booth was among those that were teeming with shoppers because all items, including these gift sets, were on sale.

My major shopping find from this year’s warehouse sale:  Akemi bed sheets (cotton satin fabric) at only P1,800!!!  A steal!

Fiber Pillows from Mandaue Foam.   They’re also on a buy 1-take 1 promo.

It was a good sale, overall.   But I hope they will feature more dining and home decor items (like furniture) next year.   They were sorely missed in this year’s sale.

ARQ Curtains Annual Bodega Sale

November 19, 2012 by Leave a Comment

I’ve put a really big dent in my wallet after attending 2 warehouse sale events last Saturday.   One was the Home World Warehouse Sale at SM Megamall and the other was the Bodega Sale of ARQ Curtains at Plainview, Mandaluyong City.  AJ and I braved the traffic to get to these 2 places and it was so worth it.  We were able to score some really nice items for our home at super low prices!

It was at the Bodega Sale of ARQ Curtains were I had the most fun because I love curtains and throw pillow cases.   I remember when we first decorated our apartment I told AJ that we’ll probably be needing only 2 sets of curtains-and-throw-pillow-cases.   But now I’ve collected around 4 sets already – 1 for each season.    And the collection just keeps growing every time I catch a sale – like this Bodega Sale from ARQ Curtains where everything is marked down for up to 70%!

We got there at half past 6 already but thankfully the place was still open, with just a  few people shopping for sale items.

The staff were busy re-arranging the items for the last day of sale (scheduled the following day) but they did not hesitate to assist us when we were at lost on where to find half-length curtains or another piece of a throw pillow case that we liked.

Just some of the “few” items you could choose from the sale:

I fell in love with these black curtains and bought a pair.  The price was marked down at 50%!

This throw pillow case matched the curtains very well and it’s only P100.00 a piece!

Aside from scoring big sale items such as these, another reason for our going to the ARQ Curtains Bodega Sale was for these throw pillows:

The Anglophile in me screamed when I first saw this picture at ARQ Curtains’ facebook page (thanks Joy, for the heads-up!).    I just have to have them!

As I expected, these England-inspired throw pillows weren’t part of the big sale but were marked down at 20%.    We were kindly assisted by the head boss / owner (?) of ARQ Curtains, who instructed his staff to take out the London-inspired pillow cases from the stockroom for us to see.

Ahhh, our ultimate dream design!   AJ couldn’t part with this pillow after being told that it’s only a prototype and is not yet available.

We were informed that the Union Jack pillow case in its original colors (blue, red and white) is not available, but the exact same design in monochromatic colors (such as yellow, green, red and blue) are available.  So to match our black-and-white curtains, we decided to get this black-and-white combination.

Of course, we will not pass this opportunity to take home the City of London!

The iconic London phone booths.

Our total bill came at less than P3,000.00, for purchases that’s worth over P7,000.00!

If you also love design curtains and pillow cases like me, better keep tab at what ARQ Curtains is offering.  Better yet, like their facebook page now so you can always have the first preview of their new designs, and be the first to know about their future Bodega Sales!

My bargain loot did not end  here at ARQ Curtains.   In my next post I will show you what I took home from the Homeworld Warehouse Sale at SM Megamall   =)
