Philippine Island Maps, Postcards and Souvenirs by Pinspired Philippines

Dumaguete finally has its very own postcard and souvenir shop! Thanks to Pinspired Philippines, we can bring back sending of postcards to friends and family worldwide. They've been around for some time now, starting as an online shop, but they have grown and made more items available to Filipinos and foreigners alike.

Aside from postcards, they also now offer art prints and other works of art created by Dumaguete City artists (ukeleles,  clay sculptures, etc). They also have a selection of great quality magnets,  keychains and stickers!

Give them a visit! You'll surely love their shop located in Dakong Balay along Rizal Boulevard (beside Starbucks and Gerry's Grill)

Plus-size wear designed by Nariz

Talented local fashion designer Nariz created a collection of minimalist casual wear for plus-size women. I love that they have simple lines with very comfortable fabric - comfort and style is important in clothes, at least for me.  I was happy to take photos of her gorgeous friends-slash-models who made the pieces look great and also wearable.  The ladies were a lot of fun in between shoots since they're friends with the designer, so it was easy to direct them and make them feel comfortable in our set.

It was a good experience to collaborate with her and especially happy with the creations we showcased since plus-size clothes are not always featured in local stores or created and carefully thought of like Nariz did.  Plus-size women deserve to have their spotlight in fashion design, too!
