Cafe Antonio xx Arla Diner

Thank God it's Fridaaaaay! Ended the school week with some caffeine dose minus the books, notes and PDFs with my favorite girls. The two-jeepney-ride long travel  to Cafe Antonio and Arla from UPLB was truly worth it! So yeah, I'll let the pictures do the talking. :)

Cafe Antonio's new facade. From its place in LB Square, Canton moved to a more quiet environment at Maahas, beside a fine-dining restaurant, Arla Diner.
The Menu.

Freshly brewed, yes!
The junction between Cafe Antonio and Arla Diner. Isn't the place lovely? <3

One of Canton's newest blend, Owltonio. It's Arabica, Robusta and Exelsa rolled into one! :)
While waiting for our orders! Hi, C and D! :)
Hi there, Ate Tin! Advance happy birthday (when this was taken)! :))

Hello, B! :)
Canton's coffee maker. :)

Finally! *nomnom*

I ordered this Pasta Carbonara at Arla. It's worth your 200php. :)

My Owltonio-blended Cappuccino.♥ 120php

One happy kid here! :)

Feature: A Beloved Jelly

I am in love with flats. One, because I can practically go anywhere with it; from school walks, random errands, to mall visits. Two, comfortability issues. And three, myself being unaccustomed to wearing heels since the world began. Haha, kidding. But truth be told, I only wear heels during graduations and debuts. Otherwise, I'm in my old self, wearing a pair of flats.

First thing today, I browsed Melissa Philippines' site since a friend of mine talked about the Brazilian brand. And look what I've found -- avant-garde designed flats! Don't you love the details? :)


















Worth a second look, yes?

I've learned that Melissa has partnered  with an array of fashion designers (Vivienne Westwood, Alexandre Herchcovitch, Judy Blame), architects (Karim Rashid) and even furniture designers (Fernando and Humberto Campana)! Melissa is actually a top brand of Grendene, one of the world's largest manufacturer of footwear.

It's jelly, thanks to Melflex technology, with a candy smell, making it just but perfect for jazzing up gloomy, rainy days or should I say, every day? A beloved jelly, indeed! :)

Floral Overload

Just but another random shoot. It's supposedly for Yan-Yan's online shop Kulayful Clay but she forgot to bring the clay accessories we need to wear for this shoot, seriously. But then again, because we're spontaneous (HAHA) like that, we went on with the shoot for uhm, new pictures, at least.

Last minute preparations at Yan-Yan's apartment.






Going to the location..





Some group shots.





And here are some of my solo shots. Haha.





Jellybean floral dress, Red Barcelona flats from Shoe Gallery Trinoma.

I enjoyed the shoot despite some glitches. More to come! :)
