Look stylish in flip-flops any time of year

by Trixie Reyna, Managing Editor

In a tropical country such as ours, we are lucky to have an excuse to wear flip-flops all-year-round. Since we pair flip-flops with a wide variety of outfits, it’s almost normal for Pinays to have at least five different pairs—or even an entire shoe shelf devoted to them.

If you’re looking for more pretty pairs of this most comfortable footwear, you may find some of the most unique and stylish designs from Ipanema. Offering a wide range of prints, colors, and even bejeweled styles, you can find an Ipanema pair to match your equally glam tunic, shorts, mini skirt, or sundress for that effortlessly chic look—even in these “-ber” months.

You don’t even have to sacrifice comfort over style, since these flip-flops are extremely comfortable. They are made from a unique and really soft PVC material that is molded specifically for all shapes of feet, and have soles that are well-padded.

The various Ipanema designs and environment-friendly reason you should consider getting a pair follows after the jump.

Christmas is indeed just around the corner, but there’s one more exciting event to enjoy before we go full-blast on the yuletide cheer: Halloween, of course!

One of the many malls offering Halloween treats for everyone, particularly for the kids, is Araneta Center. Choose from a wide array of Halloween events offered by the lifestyle center this year. Fun activities such as Face Painting and Balloon Twisting are in store for kids all weekends of October in Gateway and Ali Mall. There will also be living statues, stilt walkers, and roving monsters to amuse shoppers. Those who want to see their future outlined in the stars can enjoy fortune-telling sessions at Farmers Plaza also happening every weekend of October.

Everyone is also invited to join the Pumpkin Carving and Design Competition on Saturday, October 25, at Gateway Mall and Ali Mall beginning 1PM. Then dress up in your scariest, most wickedly wonderful costume, and win exciting prizes at the Halloween Show and Trick or Treat in the same malls on Sunday, October 26, at 4PM!

For more details, see posters and flyers or visit the registration area located at the ground floor of Ali Mall and Gateway Mall concierge.

A quaint shopping village in the heart of Cubao

by Trixie Reyna, Managing Editor

There’s actually a great shopping place within the Araneta complex apart from Gateway Mall. It has some really amazing finds and even a quaint Italian restaurant you have probably heard about and should definitely try.

Have you heard of Cubao Expo? It is the former The Marikina Shoe Expo, nestled between the Araneta bus terminal and Puregold, and located behind Ali Mall & the old Rustan’s Superstore, which now houses Automatic Supercenter and ACS Call Center.

 

Among its tenants are I Love You store, Grand Thrift Shop, Little Divisoria, The Reading Room (with lots of fashion finds and even a soul card reading room where you can have your fortune told by its proprietor, Sandy Allan), Breathing Space, White Box Gallery, Sputnik Fantastik Comicbook Shop, and Bellinis Italian restaurant, which we mentioned at the beginning of this post.

Learn more about this quaint shopping place hidden in the heart of Cubao in Quezon City as well as their exciting shopping events after the jump.
