Move over Topshop. A new favourite’s in town. Situated in one of the newest malls (Greenbelt 5!) to hit the urban jungle of Makati is a gem of a fashion store called Warehouse. Have you folks checked it out? Well, I did. Last night — between Bebo and a Facebook Page also after finishing a Jamaican Cheesy Beef Patty in a mad-rush — I stepped through its doors the second time in a work week but like what they always say, second time’s a charm. I didn’t leave the store empty handed.
I bought something that resembles this Rock Girl Tee (also from Warehouse) but mine’s called an Abstract Tee and it’s in black.
I grew up surrounded with houseware, glassware then hardware (family business, don’t ask, heh) and it never entered my mind that the best ware that I could ever find myself surrounded with are fashion and style wares. Warehouse introduces the style phrase “WARE it with –” at least, it’s the first time I’ve come across it, specifically on their website. Fabulous idea. I’m stealing it. LOL.
Here’s a quick peek at my Abstract Tee!
It’s a tee. I heart tees (if you’ve been around Style Manila long enough, you know just how much!). And it’s actually interesting that this one doubles as a dress. Think tunic-slash-shirt-dress. Hehe.
Abstract Tee, Php 1,495.00.
I was with a new friend, K, who managed to snag — after a slight scare on this card-eating wallet of hers, GAH — this gorgeous cross body slouch bag for Php 2,650.00.
Stolen, schmolen. Celebrate the non-loss with a new bag, I say! LOL
Anyway, apart from the one in Greenbelt 5, Warehouse has stores in Shangrila Plaza Mall and Robinsons Galleria. Oh, yes. I reckon they’ve managed to convince me to become a regular. I can’t wait to go back and shop my heart out.
BTW, I still haven’t told you about the ones I bought from PROMOD the same night. Next time!

yeah…love the warehouse.
i remember not missing to go to the shop when it’s shopping weekend when i was still in london.
great stuff, great store!
hhmm…and now i recall that my 1st ever “hoard-those-jeans” thingy came from warehouse too, yay!
That’s cool! I have yet to peruse all the racks. My heart stopped when I saw one blazer and it held my attention long enough for me to forget the rest. Twas true love. LOL
Warehouse has very nice dresses too. I only go there when the husband is with me, for obvious reasons, hehehe. Swipe, swipe, swipe!
LOL. I’d love to have that *feature* when out shopping myself!
