Just when I thought I have given my wallet a breather by not actively looking for teacups to buy, I saw a Lomonosov teapot being sold in a group selling site at Facebook. I immediately recognized the design as the "Bridesmaid" (or "Baskets") pattern that was first introduced in the '70s, and combines the following trademark designs of Lomonosov: the fishnet (but ...

MINISO Japanese Lifestyle Store now open at Glorietta 2
Japan's fast fashion lifestyle brand, MINISO, opened this week at Glorietta 2. I passed by the store earlier (on my way home) and found lots of cute items that are perfect for gifting. I'm not a make-up junkie so I skipped the beauty counter, hehe. But I wasn't able to check out their stationery and paper section either (sayang!) because ang daming nagtitingin talaga. ... READ MORE
Exploring Tokyo, the DIY Way (Day 1)

After 2 years, it's now sporting a weathered look and a naturally developed patina that is truly beautiful to look at. Just like the wrinkles in the face of a weathered explorer tell a thousand tales, ... READ MORE

Ordering Cath Kidston Online (2016 edition)
Longtime readers of my blog know that I heart everything Cath Kidston, and that I've bought most of my CK items online. Thanks to my Cath Kidston sisters Ellen and Diane, who are also avid CK collectors and online shoppers like me, I was able to get the mugs, bags and other CK accessories that I like - straight from the UK shop. Even when the first Cath Kidston opened in ... READ MORE
Faith.Hope.Love
I love discovering and trying out natural/organic skin food products, especially locally made ones, because they really do wonders to my skin. Some of them have become part in my skincare regimen like the soaps, tea tree oil and massage rub cream from GIGA, bee propolis products from Ilog Maria and the pocket hand sanitizers and hand soaps from Human Nature. Now, I'm happy ... READ MORE
