check out landmark, they have similar tops but really affordable prices. I bought 2 the other week at P345 each.
April 10th, 2007 at 2:00 pm
I agree, Landmark has the cheapest finds. You can buy summer dresses there for less than P500.
April 10th, 2007 at 3:56 pm
Yup, Landmark has a lot of cheap and cute stuff. I’ve bought a mini-dress (P350), tights (P250) and smocked dress with a balloon skirt (P350) there. However merchandise there moves fast. If you see something you like there grab it right away because it might not be around the next time you pass by.

where is th location of landmark?
April 10th, 2007 at 11:22 pm
hi teeny! would you know if the new wing of rockwell is already open? i went there about a month ago and the area where ilaya used to be )along with the other really chic stores) were under renovation. though they have been temporarily transferred, it just feels more…chaotic. plus, sapato manila didn’t get a temporary stall. thanks!

Hi VAL!
According to our sources, the new wing, to be called ARCHAEOLOGY, will open by April 16, 2007.
Yup, I agree, I’m not liking the temp space either….
April 11th, 2007 at 7:57 pm
hi val! went there two weeks ago only one shop is open in the new wing and they were selling swim suits, I will update you asap =)
April 11th, 2007 at 10:17 pm
Yup, the wing is open with only one store in operation. I think that shop, which sells is Nothing but Water but the merchandise they have in this particular store is more expensive than the ones sold in their other branches.

hi cherry, teeny and shar! than you all for replying! at least now i don’t have to go to rockwell and have it end up being a waste of my time.

Hi! Where is ‘Maldita’(referring to the first dress at the top of this page) ?
April 19th, 2007 at 5:18 pm
Hi, I absolutely love the maldita dress. But its expensive, if you wana buy cheap dresses with “sosi” styles and even branded, go to MIMAX shops at tiende, market market, greenhills tiange, I bought good ones there, they even give discounts.

hi girls! thanks for all the replies! i was super touched. *sniff* since today’s my only weekend off, i’m scooting over to rockwell to check out the new archeology wing and treat myself to a little something (i go on 36-hour duties at the hosp. i think a little retail therapy is in order, right? hehe)
yipee! at least my going there won’t be a waste.
