Early Satruday Morning @ Dangwa

my bff jane asked me to accompany her to dangwa for she needs to to buy a bouquet of flowers for her friend. so at 6 in the morning (i wonder why we had to be early there?!?! zzzzzz....!) we trooped to dangwa flower market in sampaloc.

the last time i went to dangwa, i was still in college. i remember my other bff, day, had a flower arrangement class so i always accompany her there not because i'm a good friend but because my ultimate crush lives in that area ;) we bumped into him a couple of times so it was like hitting two birds with one stone :)

the flowers in dangwa are really fresh because according to the manong there flowers are delivered early in the morning. it was a street full of flowers - from carnation, to roses, birds of paradise and orchids. the best part is that the prices are so reasonable. just imagine, 2 dozens of long-stemmed roses for only P70!!! whereas in malls this could be really expensive.

carnation costs P100 per bundle, star gazer is between P100-P150 and malaysian mums cost P100 per bundle too :)




jane chose birds of paradise, star gazer and carnation for her bouquet. then a manong from the store arranged the flowers for her.


and the result...tadah!


jane paid for ony P340 for the bouquet plus P100 for the arrangement. quite cheap huh? worth the travel :)

Forever 21 - Part 2

yipee! i was able to visit forever 21 in megamall and i had so much fun looking through all the racks and shelves, amidst all the people (women!!!) who want to get hold of their very own forever 21 piece :)

see the people in front of the shop? tee hee!!!

see the loooooong line? it's like a long snake actually. reminded me of the line in the movie house during the opening of eclipse ;)

don't forget to get your forever 21 mesh bag (near the counter - active section) where you can put all the clothes that you want to purchase. of course, you have to return this after shopping :)


the store is really big. actually i was going around and around and around and can't seem to remember if i had been to that area already or not. haha! lots of nice clothes!!! i noticed that patterns are usually florals - pretty, pretty. i'm sure you can see what i mean even if the pics are blurred :)


i like their sandals - mostly gladiators - i was going to get the turquoise one but unfortunately no more size for me.

this blouse is also very nice. i'm glad that there's one in mysize :)


i wanted to get this sheer blouse, a steal for only P598 but since i'm on a budget, i decided to let go and get it some other time....hmmm....


it's like a one-stop shop actually...aside from shoes and clothes, there are also accessories...lots and lots of accessories!!!! you have to check their clips and hair-pieces. really nice ;)




most of what i got came from the "active section" - mostly plain shirts and leggings.




this gray leggings has a tiny button detail and very affordable at P185 each.

i also got myself white tank top, blue polka dot tank with lace detail and a basic yellow shirt. i love who affordable their basic shirts are. price starts at P185 each!!



this unicorn shirt is l-o-v-e! just had to buy it ;)


as i've said, i do have a budget for this spree and guess what???? i got 7 pcs for less than two thousand:) i still got enough change for me to eat my favorite chicken rice in orchard road restaurant. love saturaday!!! :)
