Yesterday I had loads of time; I was able to come out of the office earlier than usual. Loads of time usually translates to much needed retail therapy or at the very least spend quality time at the mall, haha! So I entered Greenbelt5 without really any intention of buying anything or visiting a particular shop but walking lead me to Bratpack. I remembered that they sell those Eastpak bags designed by Raf Simons and Rick Owens so I checked it out. I was actually thinking of buying a bag (wala pa kong gift sa sarili ko for my birthday) as a birthday gift to myself hehe. After some time wandering aimlessly at the store I was finally able to see the besought bags. I first saw the Raf Simons back pack that resembled somehow of those old military duffel bags but more refined having leather trimmings and effortlessly chic light blue material, sobrang mahal! My contacts were really blurring my view but I didn’t need 20/20 vision that time to realize the much maligned number of digits reflected on the price tag. Next!!!! Next to it were the bags designed by Rick Owens, I was’t (and still am) not familiar with his work but the black themed bags had a nice look to it. There was a picture of a guy who I presumed to be the designer, clad in a black leather skirt and high heeled shoes. The overall look reminded me of Gian Romano less the high heels. His bags were even pricier so that crushed my plans of buying anything from that store.
I walked out and made my way to the lower ground floor where Fully Booked was but I made a quick change of plans and proceeded to Healthy Options (my new fave store!). the reason being that I remembered my Mum who has high levels of cholesterol in her system and that made me think of getting her something that could help with her condition. The store was nice, everything was white. It was set up like a grocery store having everything organic (I always wanted to use the word organic). I was awed by the number of supplements they had! It was like a full wall stacked from the bottom up with all organic supplements, I saw 2 cholesterol related supplements and 1 that had concentrated garlic essences in them. I wasn’t sure of what to get her so I decided to put off the intended purchase. Then I remembered that I ran out of my multivitamin tablets eons ago so I looked for something along the lines of a usual multivit’s like Centrum. I saw one and immediately bought it haha! For something that had a nice packaging to it and claimed to be made of all vegan sources it was actually cheap or at least at par with those commercially marketed vitamins. I just started taking them this morning.
For that Healthy Options is my new favorite store haha! Looking forward to more visits, I plan to visit the one at Trinoma this weekend.
Cheers @ 25!
