Remember when you were in highschool and you had no idea what to wear for Prom? Well back then, we…read moreonly had beepers and tamagochis and the internet had almost nothing in it. There were no smart phones, no Instagram, Facebook or Pinterest to help us figure out what kind of dress was best. Even more, most of our stores back then were local. No Zara or Mango stores at the time and if we needed something formal, a trip to the local mananahi with our mothers who usually decide on everything was our only option. Nowadays, kids have it easy. They can easily just go to Se La Vi Clothing and walk away worry-free, clutching a new gown that fits like a glove. It's no wonder so many ladies trust this shop- they can create a custom dress from scratch, working with little as a sketch and create something beautiful in a short amount of time. For students in need of a prom dress, I suggest you get in touch with Angelie Sevilla, the owner at least 2 months before your prom. Best to get ahead of everyone.

Just the place to get some bargain knock offs! Yep, I'm cheap. Everyone's respectful and no one…read morepushes their stuff on to you. Just check them out and get only what you want.

Over the years, Tumblr users have skyrocketed. It's so popular that a lot of kids, teens and hip…read moreyuppies get inspiration from Tumblr blogs. May it be photography, quotes, memes, gifs, art, pop culture, style and most especially fashion. My friend actually introduced my sister and I to Fashion Market. After learning about it, we go there every time were at this mall. Fashion Market is split into 2 sides on the mall - the left and the right. I suggest going through all stores. It can take hours though, haha, but you won't regret it. They have every style and trend you'd typically see on Tumblr, fashion blogs, Youtube beauty channels and fashion week! Inside, you'll also find spas, salons, money changers and ATM's. The prices range from super inexpensive to normal clothing price rates. A lot of stores sell super hip shoes, clothes, hats, shades and even prom dresses and traditional Filipino costumes. Definitely check out these stores I frequent when you're there - (right side) Push Thru, Mastermind Chase and Muradito, (left side) Nava, Berca and Ballow. Happy shopping! :)

Need to update your wardrobe this year? Want a new swimwear? Or do you just want to shop till you…read moredrop without burying your wallet alive? Then this discreet yet stunning local clothing line could do the trick for you. Apartment 8, with branches in Trinoma, Greenhills and Glorietta, have been around for some time and has been creating quite a stir because of their trendy collections. Endorsed by famous fashion bloggers, Apartment 8 offers clothes for women, mostly for teenagers and young adults. But hey, their clothing line is for everybody, as long as you wear the dress, and not let the dress wear you. From casual to formal, from summer to winter, from vintage to modern - Apartment 8 surely has them all.

They have a pretty decent selection of barongs…read more So, I'm from SoCal, and yeah, barongs are available where I hail from, but as imports go, they tend to be much more expensive. Big Bro and I agreed they would most likely come cheaper (with better selections) in the homeland. We first discovered this store 2 years ago and it didn't disappoint. He found something to wear for our Gramma's 96th birthday as well as threads for his two sons. All for bargain prices! Fast forward 2 years later, it was time to make another stop for him to find threads for Gramma's 98th birthday. Once again, they didn't disappoint. And once again, the prices were very reasonable. And I gotta mention the quality was top notch. Customer service was average. Will probably check them out again in a couple of years.

So according to my Dad this place is brand new like recently just opened within the past month…read more And I must say I am impressed. So many good food restaurants and lots of shopping. It looks like they set mostly designated all the restaurants to one side of the mall and shops to the other side. Anyways parking garage is 30 pesos. You pay at the booth around the corner from Breadtalk. The mall is 4 levels tall. It's pretty busy as expected. It's nice having a SM shopping mall so close to home now!

This place is very nice and too close to were I live..a lot of restaurant to choose from.. I'm…read moregonna miss olongapo..specially our relatives who are very nice to us..

Nice bright store with beautiful clothing in bright colors for the Summer. Clothes are reasonably…read morepriced and well made. The styles are simple, have a good fit and the fabrics they use are of good quality. Dressing rooms are bright and clean, with full length mirrors inside each stall and one outside in the hallway. The stalls have stools to sit down on or rest your purse on. Sales people are stone faced but helpful. Sales prices are great! I came out of here with a beautiful emerald green wrap around top with lace shoulders, and a black fitted sheath dress 70% less than any other store in the mall. I'm a hard core thrifter so I won't be back here often; but I will be back, especially when they are having a sale. FYI - they carry XXL for guys!

The Cut is where boys go to become men (No, not the filthy way). If you're a guy with discerning…read moretastes, and the mall shops doesn't represent the real you, this is where you go. Located in a spot on Salcedo Village that is increasingly becoming hipper by the day, The Cut carries a lot of exclusive and limited release stuff, stuff you'd be hard-pressed to find elsewhere. They carry shoes, shirts, bags, wallets, cufflinks, hair care products, socks, tobacco, handkerchiefs, and everything in between.The items have been "curated" to bring out your inner swag and differentiate you from the heathens wearing those China knock-offs they bought from 168. Yes, the prices here are a bit on the high side, but that is a paltry price to pay for being the most well-dressed man in Manila. Man up, man. While you're here, you might as well go up the mezzanine and check out Felipe and Sons, the parent company of The Cut, where you can get a proper shave and cut, and probably get a suit tailored for you as well. Because that's how real men roll.
