the hunt for cheap frames!
thank god for i2i mall stalls for their affordable chic frames! all of which are 400php and below.
my dog ate the faux turquoise shell avies i bought so i rushed to farmers plaza in cubao to get me another one. sadly since they were few seasons back, they don't sell em anymore.
folks often ask me where i go ukay ukay...
people, "sa tabi ng farmers plaza din po. yung building na may AMA computer college."
so since i was in the area, i decided to pass by manong suki, and let me tell you that i rarely leave that place without a purchase, and luck be my lady, i found a nice plastic frame "with a vintage feel to it". i knew exactly what the next step would be: head back to farmers for prescription lenses, 40 mins later...
300 pesos for their regular lens, but if you want the hard scratch proof anti glare lenses they go for around 900 to 1.3k a pair.
TIP: sunglasses hut is having a sale till the end of september, if you buy a pair you get 40% off the next purchase on their designer glasses. so if you decide to get, lets say, a ray ban avies, the classic ones go for 7k a pair, and the discounted pair will be around 4k! so isn't that just swell????

(megamall) the other day with my dad, boyfriend and brother. twas indeed a family day! my brother who hardly visits, decided to take the 9 hour trip to manila and "bond". i say this with a tone of sarcasm and mockery cause i am pretty sure the reason behind the visit was leaning towards him asking my dad a favor versus him actually missing the presence of his kin.
to my regimen.
