Rockwell Urban Bazaar
The second Rockwell Urban Bazaar for 2008 is happening this month, on August 15 - 17 at the Rockwell Tent. What I love about the Rockwell Urban Bazaars is the incredibly satisfying shopping experience they give you. I heard that they’re very selective about the participants they want to showcase and carefully sift through the merchandise they’ll be selling. That way, you don’t have to waste your time inspecting rows and rows of the same old mass-produced clothes you can see at the average tiangge - which is my biggest bazaar pet peeve. I hate it when a bazaar contains too many items that I can easily find at the mall! There’s no news yet about which brands or sellers will be participating at the Rockwell Urban Bazaar but whoever they are, I’m sure that they won’t disappoint.
See you all at the Rockwell Tent!

Jansport is practically a household name when it comes to backpacks and if you were a teenager in the late 90’s/early 2000s it’s easy to see why. Everyone in high school used a Jansport backpack to carry their stuff and being a teenager who wanted to be cool like everyone else, I hopped merrily into the Jansport bandwagon - which was actually a pretty smart move. Besides the fact that its classic design will never go out of fashion, I highly recommend this brand because of its durability. I’ve had my eggplant purple Jansport backpack for ten years now and despite having used it all throughout high school and half of college, it’s still as functional and good-looking as the day I bought it.
To celebrate 40 years of being an internationally-renowned cultural phenomenon, Jansport launched a new line of backpacks inspired by the biggest and trendiest counter-culture - the “indie” community. The Jansport Graphic Remix line features pop art and street art that will certainly appeal to every artistic “indie” kid who wants an avenue to be creative and express his/her individuality - without being just like everyone else, of course.

Miele’s washing machines are not for the ordinary consumer. Featuring high-end features like their honey-comb drum and sensor control, these washing machines are tailor-made for discerning fashionistas who spend thousands and thousands of pesos on a fine, delicate piece of clothing that can’t be handled by just any appliance.
