Our First Christmas Tree

12.20.2014 by Leah //

How nice is it that the first Christmas Tree AJ and I will have at our apartment is actually the very Christmas Tree that I wanted to have.  I already saw this exact wooden Christmas tree complete with wooden ornaments some years ago but I didn't buy it then 'cos feeling ko may magreregalo nito sa akin hehe!  Then another Christmas came and I still didn't buy it kasi ramdam ko ...

Just in case you are not finished yet with your Christmas shopping, and you don't have time anymore to look at bazaars for unique and affordable gift items, then check out The Landmark Department store in Makati for their myriad, pretty and really affordable gift items. Here are just some of the "few" items I spotted last weekend at the Home Section (4th floor) - with prices ... READ MORE

PiP Studio

09.23.2014 by Leah //

If UK has Cath Kidston, then the Netherlands has PiP Studio. Ms. Ellen of The Pseudoshrink introduced me to this brand which, like Cath Kidston, has an extensive array of  pretty products ranging from kitchen items to home decorations to stationery and homewear, among others.  The brand is also known for its colorful and detailed illustrations of flowers and birds which I ...

Tukso na naman!  Cath Kidston is still on sale and this time around, they slashed their prices prices further down, offering as much as 50% off on their popular bags, accessories and home items! So to those who have been wanting to buy Cath Kidston - now is the best time to do it! Since I've reached my shopping quota for this year already, all I could do is make a collage ... READ MORE

Deck the Hall with Boughs of Jolly

12.03.2013 by Leah //

My favorite way of 'decking the hall':  filling up our console table with Christmas ornaments. I chose to "grow" my Christmas ornaments collection by adding new pieces each year, instead of buying everything new to match a chosen theme or color palette.   Red, green and gold have always been our Christmas colors.  A bit traditional, yes, but nothing look so festive than ...

Shop Craft Supplies, Baking Supplies and Holiday Decorations at Gourdo’s!

11.27.2013 by Leah //

Quite a long title for a post, huh?  I'm hoping AJ will get to read this because it sums up everything I wanted to have this Christmas, haha! You see, we were at Greenhills Promenade last Sunday (it's been a long while since we're last there), and I passed by Gourdo's at the second floor to see if there are flash sales. I swear, I thought I was transported to Santa's gift ... READ MORE

Weekend Shopping + Food Trip

10.06.2013 by Leah //

If you're following me at Instagram (I am @dbrightspot there), then you've probably observed how sipag I was in updating it since yesterday.  That's because I was able to visit my favorite shopping places this weekend and I went home very happy with my loot! This time around, I didn't buy much for myself.  I shopped mostly for Christmas gifts.  My goal is to finish 80% of ... READ MORE

Holiday Gift Guide for Tween Girls

09.19.2013 by Leah //

Don't you love it when you see two or more items inside your gift box?  Not only do I find that extra thoughtful of the giver; I also appreciate the effort that goes with picking which items go together and making sure that the recipient will like everything. Last Christmas, I tried putting together some bath items and packed them as Christmas goodies for my office ... READ MORE
