Partners Maia Reyes and Erica Paredes have known each for over a decade, and each has seen the other’s personal style evolve. From their similar outfits of oversized jeans, tank tops, and sneakers in the 90s, to their present day love for eclectic mixes and their shared wear-whatever-I-want attitude, the two have put their heads together and created This Kid Loves Vintage, a mix of authentic vintage and vintage-inspired clothing and accessories.

the-bourne-ultimatum.jpgJason Bourne—along with the rest of us—finally discover who he really is. His name is actually…Juan Dela Cruz and he used to be a farmer in Bukidnon (just kidding).

It’s pumped full of adrenaline, it was exhausting just watching it! But not to worry, it’s the good kind of exhausting. (Hmmm…like the kind you feel after scoring major discounts at a mall-wide sale.)

Fashion Files: Black Floral Gown

I changed to this beautiful maxi-dress for the wedding of my sis. The cut is very flattering. I got it at House of Laurel a year ago, for P5,000—a steal for a designer creation, methinks! Do check out the store (6013 J. Villena corner Manalac Streets, Poblacion, Makati City) every now and then for great designer pieces at RTW prices. For accessories, I kept them simple and in silver tone.

Five Cows

five-cows-01.jpgI went to the new mall up north last week—Trinoma—and stumbled upon an absolute dream of a café. Nestled up on the 4th floor can be found a quaint little resto and ice cream bar. The extensiveness of their ice cream desserts left me speechless; I had found ice cream heaven!

My friend and I picked up a flyer while walking and the picture of their Ferrero Crunch Supreme had us sold. The ‘Five’ in five cows takes its name from the five owners of the concept café. The set up is reminiscent of a white country kitchen with wooden chairs and colorful pillows while the menu is a sight to behold. Along with a wide range of ice cream creations are other “Urban Treats” including a fondue and parfaits. The ice cream cakes include options such as Black Forest, Blueberry Cheesecake, and Rocher Gateau to name a few. I had a Rocky Almond Bar, which at a P140 a slice turned out to be very generous. My friend chose the ice cream whose picture lured us in and we were both delighted.
