I finally had the chance to drop by Cath Kidston after the "full abstainance from fun" I was going for during my exam prep days. Went down to BGC one evening and did a quick tour in their tiny shop. I can't believe how long I put off going here. I was hoping to get mugs and cups because those are the bulky ones to import but they are all sold out of the prints I want.

The prices are OUT-RAGE-OUS. I know they can be really expensive, but the prices here in Manila--wild. Go to the official website (www.cathkidston.com) and imagine the exchange rate is at Php 91. That should give you a close estimate if you want to have a clue before dropping by.

The place was small, but cute and colorful and bright. Still not as pretty as the store that I have loved in Cambridge but it's still well-decorated however small. It's a lot of pleasure just looking around. I can't wait to go back and get my hands on MY mugs!

In case you're wondering, the shop is in the Active Fun building along 9th Avenue, right across Honda Cars Global City, do drop by and you just might find something you fancy. The staff are very nice, too!
