Prêt-a-Picnic!

Prêt-a-Picnic!

Posted by | Jun 20, 2015 | |

In true potluck fashion, many of the best things result from the alchemy of a fun, easygoing mix–of various elements & of the present with the past. Summer may well be over, but what lingers on is its delightfully relaxed vibe, much like the feeling of good friends (both old and new) coming together to let their hair down and simply enjoy each others’ company.

Putting It Together

Posted by | Jun 7, 2015 | |

Finally! After obsessing over my baskets (read Diary of a Picnic Basket) for the better part of the summer, we recently went on another road trip up North and got to put them to use. Preparing a picnic, like preparing an outfit, is best when it’s effortlessly–but not haphazardly–put together. Thankfully, even though weather forecasts predicted thunderstorms in Baguio, we were greeted with sunshine and cool weather for our baskets’ first foray. The cool temperatures and scent of pine were a welcome change from Manila’s heat These vintage-print denim culottes that I designed were perfect for lounging outdoors For...

It all began in a little open-air store by the side of a road… Little did I know back then, when Ito pulled over so I could take a peek at the ubiquitous baskets on display, that taking home that one picnic basket would get me started on a summer-long personal project/obsession to customize it! Here’s what I did to custom-design my picnic basket (in case you’d like to do the same). First thing was to line it with something pretty–I found some leftover toile de jouy in my old fabric stash (I also put a thin layer of...

Palawan: The Opulence of Nature

Palawan: The Opulence of Nature

Posted by | May 5, 2015 | |

Luxury has always been defined as a state of great comfort, extravagance and a sense of the excessive, so in that case nothing inspires a feeling of luxe quite like the overflowing abundance of nature. On our recent trip to Palawan we discovered lavish natural wonders both above ground and beneath the seas. In Dimakya Island, we swam with three full-sized sea turtles and a small sting ray even before grabbing breakfast. While on the beach, we lazed around enjoying the sumptuous stretch of powdery white sand and listening to a cloud of bats and a multitude of brightly...
