Global Pinoy Bazaar + My SOS Satchel Bag is Here!

11.07.2011 by Leah //

Yesterday was spent at the Rockwell Power Plant where we checked out the Global  Pinoy Bazaar: I learned about this bazaar thru Bianca Donato, the proprietress behind The School of Satchel (SOS).    I contacted her to finally confirm my purchase of the SOS bag, and she informed me that she will be at this weekend bazaar. The bazaar was full of Pinoy products, some of ... READ MORE

Iza Calzado for Esquire

11.06.2011 by Leah //

Iza Calzado sizzles in the latest issue of Esquire Magazine: The concept for this cover photo was inspired by Angelina Jolie's cover for the same magazine way back in 2007.... I honestly think our Iza is much sexier than Angelina, who is now down to an alarming 94 pounds.      I do hope Iza's photos were not photoshopped.  Well, a bit of tinkering is okey (if only to ...

Personalized Notebooks from Printed Matters

11.06.2011 by Leah //

Finally, I found the perfect gift for tweenies and officemates:   personalized notebooks from Printed Matters. I was there at their Glorietta kiosk yesterday and there are 3 sizes which you can choose from:  the mini-notebook (P75.00), the medium one (P195.00) and the large notebook which comes with a hard-bound cover (P350.00): I find the small notebook cute, and I like ...

Proenza Schouler’s “PS1” satchel’s make-over

11.04.2011 by Leah //

Here's the PS1's cult classic design, made of calf hair and leather:      The make over:        The newest PS1 got a Navajo-inspired jacquard textile this time, with black leather.    I think it's hip and trendy, but not perfect for an everyday bag.   The colored textile will also sort of limit your wardrobe choices. (All pictures are from ... READ MORE

Food Post: Myron’s Steak

11.04.2011 by Leah //

Last Friday, AJ and I celebrated our 5th month anniversary as a couple.   We don't get to celebrate our wedding anniversary each month, so we treated ourselves this time with a big and very expensive steak hehe! We chose to dine in style at Myron's in Rockwell. It was a very early dinner actually, because AJ works on a night shift and has to be at work by 8 p.m. Good ... READ MORE

Happy Halloween + Prayer for the Faithful Departed

10.31.2011 by Leah //

Happy Halloween! It's also my mom's birthday (Happy Birthday, mami!) but we're going to celebrate it next week instead because she is in Cebu right now. Back when we were young, the thing that we look forward to during Halloweens would be Noli de Castro's "Magandang Gabi, Bayan" Halloween specials.   Me and my brother, as well as our cousins who would sometimes sleep over at ...
