I went to the Rockwell Bazaar last Friday and scored some items from online shops I often check out. While I've developed an addiction with online shopping, it's nice to get to feel and fit the items before buying them too.

First few items from Therapy Bags...

From Therapy Bags: Crossover Body Bag and dual-use accessories

I have lots of big bags and sometimes I just want to bring a few items. This is a nice size, looks small but I can actually put more than I expected. It was also on sale for P500.

The accessories can be used as a bracelet or necklace. The owner was so friendly and demonstrated the different ways to use the accessories. It's P250 each but if you buy at least two, you get P50 off.

And I just had to grab a pair of shoes from Sole Divas Purse Shoes. I was suppose to order a pair online but when I found out they will be at the bazaar, I decided to check out the items there instead.

Oxford Fiocco from their Summer 2012 collection

They have adorable ballet flats in many colors. This pair I bought also comes in other color combinations. They also sell mommy-daughter pairs too. Made me wish I had a daughter!

The shoes are made here in my hometown, Marikina. The more reason to buy! Love your own!

hair accessories from 1721

Just some random hair accessories from 1721. I just realized my hair isn't long enough to do some of the styles in the instruction manual but I'm willing to wait. Was so inggit with the owner, she was showing how to use everything. Ganda and super long her hair!

I saw a cheap and cheerful pair of sandals for only P450. I left the booth to go around for awhile and when I came back they sold the only pair in my size... felt so bad! Well, till the next bazaar.

Asprey "The World of Straps"

I think many of us do not realize that watch straps can be considered as an accessory to our wardrobe too. We only change straps when it breaks or gets worn out. Last Wednesday, I was invited to Asprey's bloggers' night and got introduced to the World of Straps...

"Recently Manila’s leading watchstrap brand Asprey threw in a party at Scarlet Lounge, the Fort and treated fashion industry’s young bloggers for a night of fun! Attendees were requested to bring in their old watches and trade their aged straps with new and fresher styles. 

Stylish attendees also participated in our online popularity game. Guests took their photos and uploaded it in Asprey’s facebook fan page. 6 Photos with the most number of like were awarded with watches from LTimestudio and a set of watchstraps from Asprey. 

Asprey’s brand ambassadors were also introduced that night: Bloggers David Guison of DG Manila, Lissa Kahayon of scenestealer.com, College Jock and Model Victor Pring, Myx Vjs Joyce and Mike Advincula and Kato Chua of Moonshine Garb "


They introduced their new strap line, Nato. Made of nylon, it comes in different sizes and colors. These straps can be changed as often as you do your shoes! Or wear the strap as it is as an accessory.

We were asked to bring our old watched for a make over...

chose one Nato strap

also got a leather strap. the green and yellow Nato was another giveaway.

Lots of straps in different colors...

That night, the bloggers were asked to post pictures with our chosen straps and upload it on Asprey's Facebook site. The most number of "likes" till the end of the night wins a watch and straps from Asprey. I was too shy to post my pic! Lol! But six bloggers went home happy that night!

It was a fun night! Met some new friends enjoyed being with fashion loving bloggers. Thanks again Asprey!
