Apart from clothes and shoes, bags are my biggest splurge especially leather bags. For me, a good bag will make you look amazing no matter how simple the outfit that you’re wearing and good quality bags last forever. Am I right?

When I discovered Baginning online shop from a friend, I was hooked and I can’t say enough good things about them. The leather quality is fantastic and perfect to use for work days and weekend trips, and while the price point is definitely a splurge, they’re not nearly as bad as a true designer bag.

So, if you’re shopping for a new bag this season, I highly recommend checking Baginning out. This is a go-to place for when you need a new leather bags, but aren't sure what kind you want. I also inspired to post and share some of my favorites from their shop.

To save you time and effort, I’ve rounded-up the best designer handbags from the new season that suit all tastes, styles, daily needs and budgets. Check them out below...

Everyone wants to look good and feel great, and there are seemingly endless easy ways to improve your health from inside and out. I use a variety of different brands to make sure I'm getting all my supplements, haircare, skincare and beauty products. I can get all of these at Watsons, my trusted drugstore and health partner. Watsons’ mission is to help people around the world to look good, feel great and have fun. And that's exactly what I'm feeling right now.

I'm choosing to lead a healthy lifestyle but being an online influencer, content creator, blogger and traveler is not an easy task. We don't even have time to comeback to ourselves because we have so much to do, we're on our phones/laptops, event invites and the need to travel often to have a great quality content to share to followers and readers.

When traveling, avoiding the heat and humidity is practically impossible, we're frequently exposing our hair to chemicals in pools, salt water, and spending more time in the direct sunlight, all of which will damage and strip our hair of it's its beautiful color. Luckily, Watsons has this line called NATURALS Argan Shampoo and NATURALS Argan Conditioner. A certified organic argan oil and argan seed extract from Morocco which is perfect to boost the moisture and shine to my hair. It revitalized my very dry, damaged hair on just three washes. And it smells amazing.


Thanks to watsons for providing me a gift that benefits health and beauty. #BeHealthyInsideAndOut #LookGoodFeelGreat #WatsonsPH

I was recently invited to attend the official grand opening of Kusina Moderne restaurant located at Barangay Poblacion, Makati. I attended the event as a blogger and content creator of Hey Manila together with other members.

During the opening we were also lucky to taste the flavorful and amazing dishes Chef Carlo personally prepared for us. Yes, every meal that you are going to order and eat is personally prepared by the chef. He is very hands-on on everything.

If you are looking for a Filipino food with a twist, no one in the city does it better than Kusina Moderne. Why? Because Kusina Moderne is a restaurant that prepares contemporary Filipino food through french techniques while staying close to its traditional taste. That's so exciting, right?



Now let’s talk about their food. More and more people are digging into delicious and photogenic food yet affordable. For some reason good looking food tastes better. Here, you can be guaranteed whatever you order will be immaculately presented and perfect for Instagram. That's why I just could not help myself but snap away with my camera!

Be sure to try one of their Mechado Tacos and Binagoongang Baboy and they can help you pair it with the right wine if that is your desire. And, save room for dessert, the Cheesecake Flan is a real treat. Everything looked beautiful and the experience was memorable!

Here are my favorite FSJShoes shoes from their website at the lowest prices:


There is a great way for you to express your creativity through your shoes because they allow you to design your own personalized pair of shoes. You can show off your artistic creation to the world in a functional way through their "Design Your Own Shoes" feature.

I was never a fan of overly sweet things as a child, the hard or chewy candy and chocolates that the other kids were eating. I was more into fruits, which I still love to this day. The only sweet thing that I eat semi-regularly especially during summer is the ice cream in a bun sandwich from wooden pushcarts painted in wild colors like a jeepney that you can find only on the street (of Philippines) by the ice cream vendors.

This sweet treat, which comes in many flavors, has been loved by generations of Filipinos everywhere. Ice cream vendors sell this sweet delight on the streets for less than the price of a sundae at your favorite fast food chain.

Now, shoppers of SM North Edsa can get a taste of this family favorite, thanks to this dessert shop named "Dough Creamery".

If you're in the mood for something even more adventurous, opt for their signature Spindle, Ice Dog and Waffle Pop. The cones, buns and waffles are super tasty and toasty, edges just slightly burnt and crunchy that are sure to impress everyone. As I took my first bite I was pleasantly surprised. Perfect sweetness, not too greasy or way too sweet but just pure deliciousness.

How could you ever resist bubbly soda with ice cream on top of it?
Cream Soda as the Dough Creamery call it -- is a match made in heaven. It wasn’t just the sugar either, it was that tangy sensation of the bubbles hitting my tongue and washing down my throat that kept me coming back for more. Cream Soda comes in Matcha, Black Currant, Wildberry, and Passionfruit flavors for only P79.

Dough Creamery was run by a group of business-minded young guys. All the visual and technical details in Dough Creamery, from the designs of its dessert stall, down to the crunchiness of its cones, have been carefully considered their choices, with much research, creativity, and dedication to tradition going into everything. We are certain to enjoy these little gems quite regularly in the future!


Dough Creamery is at North Towers, SM North and follows the mall’s hours of operation.
