Comfort + Style = Hey Dude



Just recently Hey Dude opened it's first concept store in Davao at the 2nd level of Gaisano Mall of Davao.




Reminiscent of other outdoor shoes, Hey Dude promises Lightness, Comfort, and Style in every pair they come up with. Hey Dude combines the comfort a pair of slippers give and the dapper of a dress shoe. In other words, you get to taste the best of what both worlds can offer.


Most of HEY DUDE's patrons are the ones who are very fond of the outdoors, especially those who loves to frolic in the beach. But of course, true to their claim that they never fail to combine COMFORT and STYLE, they do come out with designs that can be worn when you go out and seek for adventure or you simply just want to strut your stylish self wherever.


Hey Dude utilizes the revolutionary Flex & Fold Technology. It combines ultra light outsole with ultra comfortable insole. This technology allows them to create shoes that are stylishly current and undeniably comfortable. Their shoes weighs only about a mere 6oz. - 7oz. WOW!!!! If that doesn't sound comfortable to you, yet, then it's best if you get yourself checked. haha



These are just some of their awesome pairs...




These are my personal favorite, because it doesn't appear to be too bulky and I can wear it with just about any outfit.











THEIR LEGEND-ary Collection

I am passionately in love with their PASIONE collection.


Be sure to drop by their concept store located at the 2nd level of Gaisano Mall Of Davao and try on their wide array of shoe choices.

It's not coffee if it's not GREEN COFFEE

When Starbucks opened their very first branch here in Davao, people flocked their shop like mad dogs. The lines were crazy as hell, it almost feels like we're lining for a free drink, but we're not. But it didn't take long before the number slowly subsided, maybe because of the constraints of their store location and just basically the size. People could barely chill and talk with friends over a cup of coffee because when they look right or left, they'd see people staring blankly at them seemingly wanting to tell them "Please gulp that thing down and leave..We need seats too."

and then came Green Coffee.



Not to be considered a minor player in the Coffee Shop business industry, Green Coffee boasts itself as the FIRST (if not the only) to have an AIR-CONDITIONED Coffee Shop Garden..



Green Coffee is situated at Torres St., Davao City, and is brewing 24/7. Proving that Green Coffee is Davao’s pride when it comes to Coffee, just recently, Manila got a taste of GREEN COFFEE when they opened their FIRST Manila Branch, located at Tomas Morato, QC.

what makes GREEN COFFEE so different from other coffee shops brewing in the Philippines? It is it’s GENIUS idea of introducing a new addition to their menu ONE AT A TIME. it gives people something to look forward to.

Not too long ago, they introduced their new line of Fine Salt & Cheese concoctions.

It's so delicious it even had a celebrity raving about it! Talk about a celebrity sway :)

I went with my family and got ourselves some drinks. My dad kept on telling us how much he LOVES Green Coffee's Coffee Jelly Freezecinno and their Milk Tea w/ FSC.. He kept asking my mom when we'll be back. haha


My mom raved about how relaxing the place was and immediately texted her batchmates to spend their scheduled get-together in Green Coffee.





What I also love about GREEN COFFEE is how the people behind GC makes us feel like friends or even family. They never fail to tweet welcoming us to their humble shop and thanking us for spending time there.




With my busy schedule and with my time mostly dedicated on work, the next best thing other than my bed is being at Green Coffee. :)




Don't go on with life without trying out what GREEN COFFEE has to offer!! I'm telling you, IT IS A MUST. It is more than just Coffee, It is an EXPERIENCE. :)




Also, FOLLOW Green Coffee on twitter for more updates and promos.


Let's help them reach 1,000 followers and get drinks for only P1.00*!!! How great is that?! Piso Rates are not only for airlines :)

Urban Davao x Stylista x Diary Of A Sole Searcher SUMMER FUN SHOOT : A Preview




The heat of the sun was unforgiving and time constraints were major issues we had to tackle on the day of the shoot, but the end products made it all worth it.

The shoot proved to be a success as we were able to get it done in time with great results. Style Bloggers and Fashion Enthusiasts did a great job working their outfit from Stylista, Inc. 


ANIMAL INSTINCTS: Models channeling their "Sasha Fierce" inside.
RULE OF THUMB when sporting Animal Prints, WEAR ONLY ONE PRINT/PATTERN at a time. Never combine two animal prints in one look.. Unless of course if you want to look like a total roadkill.




YOUNG, WILD, and FREE:  Style Bloggers, Cham and Kweshie, unleashes their indie spirits with Aztec prints.

Aztec Prints can go a long way. Go soft and sweet by pairing aztec-printed pieces with soft vests or anything Taylor Swift would love. haha.. Or go hard and edgy by pairing it with leather jacket.



COTTON CANDY DREAMS: Fresh, Fun, and Flirty. Girls can only do so much with candy-colored pieces.

EURO STREET: Blogger, Gelianne Alba, embraces her inner fashion diva with clothes fit for a Georgina Sparks.

SOCIAL BUTTERFLIES: If you want to look like you've just won a million bucks, before tax, choose clothes that Jenny Humphrey, Serena Van der Woodsen, and Blair Waldorf would love.




Thanks to all Style Bloggers and Fashion Enthusiasts who participated!

INDULGENCE WITHOUT THE GUILT

Anyone who knows me knows that I am such a freak when it comes to desserts. A meal would never be complete without a bite of my favorite chocolate bar or a scoop of ice cream. But, c'mon, we're not getting any younger and we should keep an eye on our health already. Good thing YOH FROZ delivers what we all need. A treat for our sweet tooth minus the guilt.

Forget about Selecta's MAGNUM. Yoh Froz's Yogurt Bars are the REAL DEAL!

Made with 98% fat-free yogurt, Yoh Froz's Yogurt Bars are without a doubt the answer to our prayers. A true food for our yearning sweets-loving soul. I CAN'T WAIT TO TRY THEIR GREEN TEA FROZ!!

My FAVORITES are their Signature Chocolate-coated FROZ Bars and their Strawberry Froz. There's something about YOGURT and STRAWBERRY that really makes me crave for more. it's light and creamy and I just can't stop myself from grabbing one more bar.





Yoh Froz has a lot more to offer, so make sure to include trying out Yoh Froz on your itinerary.






and oh, when you're there, don't forget to ask for a TREAT CARD. 1 Treat Sticker for every 150php single-receipt purchase made. Complete all 10 treat stickers and get a free cup of Froz. Enjoy!
