7 Reasons to love (the) Urban Lifestyle

From the force behind Pop District Bazaar and Sugbo Mercado comes your everyday trunkshow. Nestled in the second floor of Axis Vibo Place in Escario, Charmaine de Leon and Ruby Pansoy, along with Gab Rosales, Angela Rapes and Vanessa de Gracia have created a niche for curated and local brands.

Here are 7 of our favorites/reasons why you should head over there ASAP!

1. Gale's Garden

Who can resist a pretty succulent? Such an easy way to add greens to any living or working space. These little pots of joy from Gale's Garden call for us to take them home.

2. Capel Street

One of our favorite buys from Urban Lifestyle is Capel Street's Cold Pressed All Natural Castor Oil for Eyelashes and Eyebrows to help thicken them. We've been applying every night for weeks now and we are already seeing results! Their pomades are also sure to be a hit with the men as they have a great hold with choices to your preferences and smell good too!

3. Jojo Martinez

We are big fans of the clean lines and dainty details of this couture brand. We love the gorgeous resort lounge wear on display and their feminine take on bomber jackets.

4. See Things Eyewear

It's no secret we are big fans of the affordable quality frames of See Things Eyewear. Their frames that can be changed with prescription lenses are exclusively on display at Urban Lifestyle.

5. Momita

New mom Maan is a big fan of their kitschy jewelry that doubles as a teether for your baby! They also sell comfy pre-walker shows (our little David falls asleep while wearing them!) in the cutest designs!

6. MS Accessories

We love the selection of earrings that MS has on display. They have gorgeous takes on the latest trend of tassle earrings.

7. Thingamabobs

We love their collection of note pads, the cutest pads and pretty lined envelopes! Such crafty stationery from Forever Afternoon. They also sell calligraphy kits, inks and jot pads.

You can also find handmade soy candles in the loveliest scents from It Candle Be, basic but beautiful bags from Lisa, caps from Elated, even custom-made leather boat shoes from Rolando and a lot more brands who call Cebu home. With the 'ber months starting and christmas songs already playing, we're already excited to do our Christmas shopping here with all the unique items in Urban Lifestyle that would make great gifts - especially to yourself ;)
