Vapur Anti-Bottle

My Vapur Anti-bottle finally arrived! (Thank you, Aldrich!)

This is probably one of the coolest gifts i've received in awhile.

Vapur Anti-bottle is a reusable water pack. It's light-weight, comes in cute colors, and can stand upright when full. The best part? It can be folded, rolled, or flattened when empty to fit in your pocket.


I love how it comes with a matching carabiner so  I can hang it from my bag. Just the other day I had it attached to my bag strap and I got a few curious glances. In fact, a barista at Starbucks couldn't help but ask me what it was.

I'm pretty sure this will be a hit, especially among bikers, climbers, and yogis.

The best (fun) part? You can simply squeeze the pack to drink. No need to tilt your head back to take a gulp!

Zooey or Katy?

Zooey Deschanel is my ultimate girl-crush. I love her look, her fashion style, her voice, her songs, her acting, her quirkiness. Im obsessed!  


Check out Zooey Deschanel on the cover of Lucky Magazine!




But I love her lookalike Katy Perry, too. 



I always get mixed responses when I ask friends about who they prefer more.



Are you Team Zooey or Team Katy?







I think Katy Perry has better features than Zooey. Plus her music is definitely more popular than Zooey's. But there is something so unique and quirky about Zooey that makes her number one in my books!


Not to mention, Zooey Deschanel is married to Ben Gibbard of Death Cab for Cutie. 





Sorry Katy, you can't top that!

Poster obsession

My current art obsession are posters I found on postercabaret.com. Check out these posters by Bianca Gomez. Too adorable for words.

I'm really drawn to the bicycles!

Oh fun love!

Imagine this in a little boy's room?

Another cute bicycle. I'm really starting to like bicycles!

Imagine these on birthday invites!

Paris vs. New York

I love the Paris vs. New York blog (parisvsnyc.blogspot.com) by graphic designer Vahram Muratyan. Such an artistic way to compare two wonderful cities. Here are some of my favorite designs.







Modern bowls for the modern dog owner

I love dogs. Well, my dog in particular. Ever since I became a dog owner, I’ve been on the lookout for designer dog stuff — beds, shampoos, toys, and pet bowls. Here are some pet bowls in the market that are definitely a step up from regular stainless steel bowls.




Le Bistro water dispenser
Word of advice, your dog might not be as enthusiastic over the bowl as you are. I purchased the Le Bistro water dispenser for about Php1,200 at Bow & Wow in Shangri-la Plaza Mall, and it lasted just two days! Doggies can be finicky drinkers — wanting their bowls changed every so often. Sometimes TOO often. Since this dispenser automatically fills the bowl, it’s impossible to throw out old water + food particles.
Still, I can’t help but drool over good looking bowls. Here are a few others.

You'll never look at toasters the same way again!

Ever since I learned about the Dualit toaster (which apparently is the world’s most expensive toaster) and had the “privilege” of toasting bread in one, I have had a fascination for toasters! Check out some of these *drool* toasters.
