Every month they hold a wicked little road sale at Cubao X, where you can bring your vintage or self made items, candies, clothes, projects what have you, and sell them on the road. Paula and I brought some boxes that we customized with old Archie comics and some vintage sunglasses we hunted down on a very hectic day downtown, and so had a good excuse to join the fun and drown ourselves in beer. I am always fascinated with Cubao X, and on every visit I find something beautiful to photograph and never go home disappointed. I also bought a boho dress for about a dollar and a pretty little bag for a little less than a dollar.. perfect for me considering how broke I am. Is it just me or does this year financially suck already?
If you grew up in the Philippines, you would know something we here call "plastic balloon". They go for 1-5pesos and come in a tube and you roll a bit around the end of a small what looks like a lollipop stick and blow into it creating a balloon.. there - in case you were wondering what the hell I was doing up in those photos. I love to go back to being a child even if only for a few minutes, and plastic balloons were definitely in my box of favorite childhood memories.
Halfway through the drinking, I decided to stop and babysit Paula instead.. my stomach has been acting up every time beer would go anywhere near it, which now resulted in my being on a personal alcohol ban - indefinitely. Good thing I am as much fun off as I am on it..
Oh! And I was also excited to finally get to wear the jacket that I bought on my last trip to Baguio. My boyfriend picked it out and it was a steal - at 20 pesos. That's like half a dollar if my math is correct. It is exquisitely patterned too, which gives me crazy batwing like ideas just by looking at it.. Hmmm.
♥ & ♥

PPS: The lovely Karen did an interview with me here, thanks doll!
