Most of you probably have mixed feelings about Valentine’s day. Some might be eagerly anticipating their Saturday night dates, while those who are dodging Cupid’s arrows might have a singles’ gathering planned. No matter what you choose to do on Valentine’s day, we’ve got something special for everyone to commemorate the month of love. And by everyone, I mean everyone - even guys!

Two Halves of One Whole by Liezl B, P500

We have a new batch of necklaces from Lizz this week – appropriately heart-themed, of course! Two of the necklaces actually come with a separate pendant your guy can wear to signify your love. Isn’t that sweet?

We’re also holding a special promo just for guys! The Make Her Smile promo entitles our romantic male customers to a 10% discount if they buy a necklace as a present for their significant other. Check out this post for more information.

The girls get something special too. To make sure you look nothing but your best on Saturday, we’re giving you 10% off your clothing purchases! See this post for more information.

We hope you all have a great week ahead. <3

Good morning everyone! I hope you didn’t end up spending your entire paycheck at the mall sales last weekend, because we have so many pretty things for you today.

First stop – the Trinket Box! We’re happy to announce that we have more handmade necklaces from Liezl Buenaventura. Those who missed out on last week’s rose necklaces might want to check out Beth in Summer and The Snow Queen. My favorites, however, are the cameo necklaces set in polymer pinwheels and curls. Grab them while they’re still around – Lizz never makes more than one of the same design.

Aside from the handmade necklaces, we’ve got a lovely collection of brass lockets and necklaces to add character to your outfits. One of them also functions as watch!

Due to popular demand we brought back the belts, but we couldn’t find the same ones we had on the store two weeks ago. Nonetheless, this batch of belts is just as wearable and affordable. My favorite is the zippered white belt – I’ve never seen anything like it before.

During the early days of Ukay Manila, customers kept asking us to sell bags in the store. We couldn’t do so back then because ukay bags smell funky, and we didn’t know how to get rid of the smell. But starting today, we’re offering brand new bags! Our white floral totes are very roomy, practical, and come in three different colors to suit your tastes.

Don’t forget to check out our new dresses and jackets too! I recommend going to your Valentine’s day dates in one of our lacy numbers. Have a great week ahead.
